The Stray Omega

Grapes

"Mama!" Cody babbled, running out of the guest room, bare butt naked. He found Mitch in the living room cleaning and he ran over, squealing loudly and he hugged Mitch's leg.

Mitch jumped and looked down, seeing a naked Cody trying to climb up his pants and he laughed, setting the dirty lunch plates back on the coffee table and he picked up Cody, holding him out.

"What are you doing out of your bath, naked butt?" Mitch cooed, Cody giggling and kicking his feet as he carried back to the guest room bathroom. He saw Kevin sitting on the toilet, watching the other kids as they played in the warm water.

"There's the little bugger." Kevin held his hands out, Mitch handing him Cody and watching as Kevin put him in the bath carefully. "He ran out before I could even get him in the water."

Mitch leaned against the door, wincing when he felt a small pain in his neck. Kevin snapped his head up, his eyebrows furrowing in worry.

"Everything okay?"

"Y-Yeah. Everything fine. Probably just Alpha Scott being clumsy." Mitch subconsciously pulled at the neck of his shirt to cover his Mark and he left the bathroom immediately.

He went back to cleaning the living room and jumped when he heard his phone ringing. He searched for it in the couch and retrieved it between the couch cushions, his eyebrows arching up when he saw Scott's silly face on the caller id.

He wanted to answer it, hear his Alpha's voice again, but he declined the call, tossing his phone back on the couch and continuing to clean his mess.

Mitch turned to the side as he inspected his tiny bump. He had just gotten out of the shower and he enjoyed seeing himself when he was clean. He rubbed his bump then put his boxers on. He went over to large crib resting against the far wall and leaned against it carefully. He smiled and reached into the crib. running his fingers over Cody's cheeks before he went to the bed and sat down.

Mitch reached into the bedside drawers and took out a drawing tablet Avi had gifted him for his birthday and turned it on. He unclipped the pen and started drawing mindlessly, his mood dropping when he realized he was sketching out a drawing of Scott. He shut off the tablet and put it on the nightstand with the pen before pulling the blanket from under his bum and laying on his back. He looked up when the door opened and he squinted when the living room light flooded in.

"Everything okay?" Avi walked into the room, peaking inside the crib.

"Yes, sir. Why?"

"I could sense your sadness. Something wrong?" Avi walked in and shut the door, going over to the bed and sat by Mitch's feet.

"I was just thinking about Alpha Scott. I miss him a lot." Avi's lips formed a straight line. The Alpha spoke to Mitch for another few minutes before deciding to go back to his room. Mitch watched Avi get up and he thought to himself. "Will you stay? I-I don't want to be alone."

Avi saw the broken look in Mitch's eyes and knew after a few weeks of not having contact with another Alpha, the Omega was in need of some form of comfort.

"Sure. Let me change and see if Matt wants to join."

Mitch got comfortable on the bed as Avi left and he spread out the pillows, jumping when Avi was back sooner than he expected. He laughed when Matt came in, jumping on the bed and over Mitch. Avi fit himself between the two and Mitch helped fix the blanket so they all could try to fit. When the decided they all couldn't fit, Mitch laid between Matt and Avi, all three of them scooting as close together as possible.

Mitch felt himself relax as Avi held him close, Matt bringing the two in his own arms. His heart fluttered at the gentle contact and soon found himself asleep.

The next morning, Kevin was looking in all the rooms, wondering where Avi and Matt had gone. He figured they had left for early morning errands and decided on stopping by the guest room to see if Mitch was awake and hungry. He opened the door, not expecting the see Avi and Matt trapping Mitch in their arms, Mitch happily asleep and drooling on Avi's tank top.

He smiled at the sight and was about to close the door until one of the babies started crying. He walked into the room and went to the crib, peering inside and seeing Bailey sitting up, her cheeks red and eyes watery. The Beta got on her feet, raising her arms out for Kevin who grabbed her, made sure the others were still asleep then left the room without making another sound.

"Key!" Bailey squealed, pulling at Kevin's beard as the Alpha carried her to the kitchen.

"Hi, sweetie. You're up earlier than usual." Kevin said, opening the fridge and grabbing a bowl of grapes and carrying them to the couch. He sat down and fed Bailey the smaller grapes, making sure she didn't choke as she was mesmerized by a cartoon Kevin put on the t.v.
