Chapter 17

Sadly, Eddy woke up within two hours of his nap. The omega just wasn't very tired, despite waking up early. Sleep was for losers! Eddy rubbed his nose against Brett's scent gland, sniffing deeply, then gently licked it.

"Salty," he mumbled. Salt was better than the taste of mowed grass, which he'd half expected, considering Brett's scent. Part of him was well aware that he had already tasted Brett before, at some point, but he was also a bit too loopy to recall.

Eddy pressed his hands on the alpha's chest to push himself in a sitting up position, but the movement was hindered by the arms Brett had slung around the omega. He was dozing lightly, but was instantly awake when Eddy woke up.

To calm him down and maybe get him to sleep a little longer, he continued to caress the back in circles and pumped out calming pheromones. At least Eddy didn't smell like his heat was at full height - he was still in pre-heat. That was a small consolation.

"Not tired," Eddy whined against Brett's chest. He didn't want to rest. He squirmed against the alpha for a bit before giving up, because the alpha's arms weren't budging. The omega huffed in defeat. Being curled up on the shorter man wasn't all too bad. Brett was warm, firm, yet soft, and all around pretty lovely.

"I know. But it would be for the best if you slept. You need all the energy you can get. The next few days will be pretty strenuous for you and your body. You'll have almost no time to rest." He looked down to see only Eddy's hair and placed a kiss on top.

"Sleep is for the weak!" The omega he pressed his face a bit more into Brett's chest. His pecs were just like built in pillows. They had to be one of Eddy's favorite things about the alpha, but he also liked his faintly toned stomach. Thinking of the alpha's stomach, he couldn't help but bring his hands up to trace the divots with his fingers. "You're soft." It was apparent that his mind was jumping to different subjects quickly.

"That's a nice way to say I should work out more. Maybe when you have your training room here, I'll use it as well. I sure as hell need it. Too much good food for me in the last few days. I should cut that out, probably."

Brett didn't really care for the state his body was in; he just wanted to live a healthy lifestyle. He didn't want or need the physique of a jacked up bodybuilder, but seeing and feeling Eddy was a bit disheartening for him. The omega was much more firm. He should probably eat less and work out more in the future. Also, the thought-process of the omega was interesting to hear.

"No, I like it." Eddy stroked Brett's belly. He saw nothing wrong with it at all. A soft alpha was a happy alpha - at least, that's how he took it. He kissed the man's sternum to show some of his appreciation.

"Hm, well, if you say so." His mind was made up, anyway, and looking at how dedicated Eddy was on his regular days to his work, he probably wouldn't even notice. Or he would. In the end, it wouldn't matter.

He stroked over Eddy's back and sides.

"How are you feeling?"

"I feel very warm." Eddy continued to pet Brett gently, the alpha felt nice under his calloused hands. "My ass also feels weird." He swayed his hips to accentuate his words. Eddy was certain he was probably dribbling slick all over the other male's legs.
