The Reluctant Omega

Is My Glow Showing?

Spice Level: ❤️‍🔥

Jaxon walked out of Grey's bathroom, running a towel through his damp hair a few times, and checked on Grey. He was still resting but stirring and whimpering in his sleep. Jaxon climbed into bed beside him and wrapped his arms around him. Grey slowly relaxed and buried his face into the crook of Jaxon's neck, sighing softly. Jaxon had already made up his mind before they started that he wasn't going to take it any further than using his mouth and hands to help Grey through his heat. He didn't have a condom, first off, and he was sure Grey didn't have any either, but mainly Jaxon wanted him to be aware and able to consent or not if he was uncomfortable with anything when they did decide to take things further. There was a good chance Grey might not remember what all they had done while he was in the middle of his heat. Jaxon secretly hoped he would, though. It felt so amazing and Grey...was fucking perfect. Jaxon could almost hear his breathless moans and desperate whimpers still. Grey stirred in his sleep again and Jaxon held him tighter before they both finally drifted off to sleep.

When Grey woke, it was very early. But he needed to pee badly. Jaxon was still holding him and when he went to move, his arms tightened around him, holding him in place.

"Jaxon," he whispered, "I need to use the bathroom...I'll be right back." Jaxon grumbled something unintelligible under his breath but eventually released him. Grey quickly ducked into the bathroom to do his business but hesitated before getting back into bed. He was thirsty and a little bit hungry. He remembered Jaxon giving him water and a granola bar last night when his heat tapered off for a bit. Grey felt his face heat up just thinking about it. He was still feeling a little off, but at least he was lucid right now. Grey headed out to the kitchen and poured himself a glass of orange juice before making some toast.

Suddenly, Jaxon's scent washed over him before his arms wrapped around his waist from behind. Grey leaned back against him, the warmth radiating from his body washing over him like a cozy blanket. There was just something so intimate and domestic about that moment. It felt like they were the only two people in the world right now. Grey turned in Jaxon's arms and wrapped his around his neck, deeply breathing in his scent. Jaxon pulled back slightly to gaze down at him. Grey's eyes were still a little unfocused and his cheeks slightly flushed, so he wasn't entirely over his heat yet. But he looked so beautiful. Practically glowing. The words that threatened to tumble from Jaxon's lips were lodged in the lump that formed in his throat. Too soon.

"How are you feeling?" He managed to choke out instead. Grey gave him a shy smile before burying his face into the crook of Jaxon's neck, his hands sliding down to rest on Jaxon's chest.

"Ok," he murmured softly, "just a little hungry." Jaxon cupped Grey's chin in his head and then tilted his head back, slotting his lips hungrily against Grey's. He made a soft sound in the back of his throat, something between a moan and whimper as the kiss quickly grew heated. Grey didn't even notice Jaxon guiding him backward until the back of his knees hit the edge of the couch. He laid down and Jaxon stretched out on top of him, settling between his thighs. Jaxon's touch was like fire on Grey's skin as he touched him and he touched him everywhere. Grey felt himself start slipping back into that fuzzy state, but there was something he wanted to do before succumbing to that heat.

"Wait." He said softly, grabbing Jaxon's shoulders. Jaxon instantly stilled, his hands coming to rest on Grey's waist. Grey suddenly felt self-conscious under Jaxon's gaze, but he managed to push it aside for now. He didn't have anything to be embarrassed about anyway. It wasn't like Jaxon was going to laugh at him or brush off his request. He just wasn't like that. Now Grey just had to put words to his thoughts.

"Can I," he murmured softly before gently palming Jaxon over the top of his boxers with his hand, "with my...mouth?" Jaxon blinked a few times, willing his brain to comprehend what his ears just heard. Jaxon felt like he was about to combust. Of course, he had been aroused this whole time. How could he not be? But he had just been taking care of himself in the bathroom when Grey was resting. Grey hadn't exactly been in the right headspace for them to start trying out new things. And now Grey was looking up at him so shyly but eagerly at the same time that Jaxon almost creamed in his boxers like a horny teenager. He took a shaky breath before nodding slowly.

And if Grey accidentally used his teeth a bit too much because it was all so new and a little daunting and he had quite a bit more than a mouthful he had to work with, Jaxon sure didn't complain. And if Jaxon had to stare up at the ceiling or anywhere else for that matter except down between his legs because he knew without a doubt he would absolutely lose it way too embarrassingly quick if he even caught a glimpse of those greenish-blue eyes staring up at him, Grey didn't bring it up.

They stayed like that in their happy little love bubble for one more day until the realities of everyday life could no longer be ignored and they had to return to some semblance of normality.
