Please save me (Newtmas kitten au)

Chapter 3

"How did those men get you?" Thomas asked.
"They b-bought me when I w-was 11. I was l-living with t-the man who did the e-experiments before t-that. S-Sam and J-John bought me a-and..." He cut himself off, looking at the floor and Thomas could see that it was all bad memories from then on. Thomas then thought back to the two men, Sam and John as Newt had called them and what they said to him about Newt.

"Newt, I know you've only known me for a little while but I need to ask, what is a heat?" Thomas asked and Newts eyes widened in horror. He started to shake again and looked down to the floor.

"P-please don't h-hurt m-me when i-it happens, i c-can't help it" the smaller boy whimpered. His tail had wrapped itself around his waist again and his ears were pressed down.
Thomas was more than confused.
"No no no what? I won't hurt you I just want to know what it is so I can look after you" Thomas tried to sooth the terrified boy who was looking at him.

Newt took in a shaky breath.
"It h-happens once every t-three months. I g-get really sick b-but I also g-get re-really..." He cut himself off again, looking down as if ashamed.

"You also get what?" Thomas urged, he really wanted to understand but he didn't realise just how hard this was for the smaller boy to confess, especially to someone he doesn't know.

"I g-get, needy" Newt whispers sadly looking up at Thomas hoping that he understood what he meant by needy.

Thomas, of course didn't have a clue.

"What do you mean by that?" He asked, causing the smaller boy to chew on his bottom lip nervously.

"I m-mean that I h-have needs t-that I ca-can't help. I g-get really v-vulnerable since I g-get really, horny" he whispered the last part looking down.

Thomas just stared, he didn't know what to do with this information. He has a boy, a cat boy, sitting on his couch who now goes through this thing called heat which makes him really horny and sick once every three months? What!

"Uhh, when is, when are you going to go through the next heat?" Thomas asked and Newt continued to bite his lip.
"In a w-week" he whispered sadly looking up at Thomas. Thomas nodded and sighed running a hand through his hair. He looked at the click quickly and let out another sigh, it was really late.

"Newt, I'm not going to hurt you ok. It's getting late so I'm going to go to bed, I think you should too" Thomas said and Newt nodded.

"You can sleep in my bed if you want and I'll take the couch?" Thomas suggested but Newt shock his head.

It occurred to Thomas that he hadn't even told the boy his name.

"My names Thomas, by the way" Thomas said holding out his hand out of habit but Newt quickly flinched away, also out of habit. Thomas frowned and retracted his hand. 'This is going to be difficult' he thought to himself.

"So do you want to take the couch?" Thomas asked, getting a shy nod from the smaller boy. Thomas got up, getting some blankets and a pillow, arranging them in a way that would be comfortable for the boy.

"Uh, Newt your clothes are all dirty and you don't have a shirt. Give me a second to get you something" Thomas said, walking to his room to get the boy some new clothes. He was going to suggest the boy to have a shower but he wasn't sure how that would work since he was part cat. It would be better, wouldn't it? Yes it would.

Thomas settled on trying to get the boy to shower. He grabbed a pair of grey sweatpants and a white long sleeve jumper. They would be a bit big on him since he was a lot smaller than Thomas but it would have to do.

Thomas returned to find the smaller boy sitting in the same position, this time looking a lot more tired.
"Newt I think that you should have a shower, it will make you feel better" Thomas said and Newt looked up at him in terror.
"I won't hurt you! I promise! I just want to make you feel better" Thomas continued. The smaller boy on the other hand was feeling horrified. The only times that he was allowed to have a shower was when one of the men wanted to have some 'fun' with him in it. Newt could feel his heart start to pick up its pace and his breathing got more rapid. How did he know if he could trust Thomas? He has only known him for a little while, he seems nice but still.

Thomas had no idea that Newt was fighting a war inside his head.
"Newt? Do you want to have a shower?" Thomas tried to sooth the boy who looked up at him with tears in his eyes. The memories were so recent, so real, so painful.

Newt couldn't deny that he did want to clean himself, he felt filthy and disgusting. He took in a deep breath and gave a small nod.

Thomas stood up and led a shaking Newt to the bathroom. The shower was there as well as some clothes. Thomas had placed them there I hopes to convince the boy to have a shower, unaware of the haunting memories that followed.

"I'll just be waiting for you ok, knock if you need me" Thomas said closing the door so that the bit had some privacy. Thomas ran a hand through his dark hair and walked back to the couch, sitting down. After a few minutes he heard the shower turn on and he smiled to himself. Why was Newt abused? Why did those men treat him so badly and what was he supposed to do during Newts heat?

Thomas decided that google might have a few answers. He pulled out his phone, thankful for the full battery and got into Google. He typed in 'what is a heat' and pressed search, slightly nervous on what the results would show. Newt had said that he gets needy and sick, that worried Thomas greatly.
