Work Text:
It was late at night around 3 am and he still wad on this one stupid video.Josh was playing one of those simulator games once more. Needing to up his last viral video he felt the need to beacome better. As he tiredly placed rail after rail in game.
His back ached he was feeling sick. He barley ate anything today. He simply didn't feel like doing that. He spent his days indoors barley communicating with anyone. And it's not like it whould do him any good anyways. So he spent his days in isolation letting time pass.. it wasn't as if he didn't like the lifestyle he truly did enjoy it.. but. He was an omega.
The world's view points on omegas where bad enough and it wasn't as if he could go out and say that he worked or did anything useful.
In this world he was the lowest of the lows no better than a breeding slave. No better than a whore.
The government had accused him far too many times of doing somthing illegal. They didn't really understand that as an omega he was fully capable of supporting himself.
People scared him. It wasn't clear at first as to why but as he grew older the feeling intensified as he was old enough to realize that people didn't consider him human. Didn't consider him as anything else than somthing to breed and after he became a teenager and with him being able to pick up pheromones it felt far too overbearing over stimulating as he closed himself off.
For almost as long as he remember it was how life was... a couple years ago josh actually met an Alpha and how to put it? The man was nice.. certainly nicer than most other men's pheromones this. Mans scent was calming. Josh really felt as if he found someone.
This scent of what seemed to be a mix of stale rooms and worn out apartments wasn't sweet or sugary. It was just that. A scent. And god did Josh love this as he spent days sitting next to his presumed soulmate.
Josh also noticed how it was with Anthony. When they where making YouTube videos. Anthony was more calm. More observant. Ofcorse no smarter than Josh despite what there roles stated. But Anthony for an Alpha it was a suprising dynamic in the relations. Not many omegas where the dominant ones. Or the fact that Alpha's where more calm than there omegas.
Josh still recalls how easy it was to pin Anthony down simply by using his logistical and intuitive skills.
Josh remembered how easily he pinned Anthony down onto there bed as he straddled his waist.
Now alone he sits in his room feeling sick exhausted and mentally drained. The YouTube video still rolling, recording his silence.
****
He stood up 4 hours he spent ok a segment of the game. He was feeling even more sick. Swaying on his feet he stumbled to the bathroom to wash himself up.
Josh glanced up to see heavy eye bags under his eyes his hair disheveled and him looking exhausted.
Tiredly he brushed his teeth and showered. Exhausted he went to bed.
Awakinh in the morning he remembered that he whould get into heat in the next 5 day. Sighing Josh got out of bed. Today he whould have to go out and buy suppression pills.
Suppression pills are expensive as is as the worst part is that most omegas don't get to buy it on there own considering the social norm is for the Alpha's to have full control over the money for omegas aren't able to work. But Josh knew that the pharmacy knew him well enough to simply let him buy what he wants without questioning him furthur. The main problem was the way to and back the pharmacy.
Josh wasn't rich in that sence so he didn't really have a car to get him to the pharmacy. What he did have was functioning legs so dressing in the most covered up way possible to first off try to hide his scent and second of all so Alpha's whouldnt get aroused near him considering the phase with the hormonal production already started for him***
He really tired to go as noticed as possible but when fate has plans it will have plans. Josh went up to the pharmacy counter as he began stating his order even taking out a prescription from before and just as he recived it a person. Young of age around there 20-25 put there hand on his shoulder making Josh startled.
Hold up. Aren't you Let's game it out? ***the random guy asked and Josh didn't really know how to respond people don't really recognize him much.
I uh.. I am yeah? ***Josh was confused but soon saw a little pin on the guys shirt. A planet coaster pin and josh realized that the face looked familiar. It was the creator of planet coaster!***
Ah.. I see you now understand who I am ***they laughed lightly the voice soft and kind making Josh flustered for some reason he didn't understand***
I saw your videos. Quiet entertaining I'd say you spend a lot of time on them don't you?.
***they leaned in closer as Josh realized the scent of an Alpha was strong on the guy as Josh imedietly steped back but it was already too late*** Hm. Hold it. ***the guy said as he grabed Joshes arm before stepping close to him and getting all close. Josh wanted nothing but to run to disapear***
What a sweet smell you have~. So an omega? Honestly suprised whouldnt think an omega whould be able to pull all of this. Hell you even where able to come to the pharmacy on your own! Suprised.
***Josh glared at the Alpha's as he riped his arm out of the guy's grip***
Not a word of this or ill make you suffer. ***Josh threatened to the Alpha's suprise. As he quieted down***
Listen. I don't want anything bad for you. Hm... how about this **the guy reached into his bag pulling out some kind of weird canister handing it to Josh. And Joshes eyes widen as he realized what he was holding. Omega scent deterrent. With this he whould become un noticed as an omega.***
You can have it you look like you need it. ***the situation was not only bizarre but truly strange as thees scent deterrent ussualy cost up to half of his pay. Ut was not that it cost a lot to produce but the demand for them was absurdly high and the government disliked the idea of having anyone step out of the prestablished order so they simply hushed it by relising the product with a absurdly high price.
W-wait you don't reply mean to give this? ***Josh leaned in asking the alpha. As the alpha shruged***
My ex had it dosent need it no more and you look pretty pent up might aswell.
***
***with theese and the suppressant he whould be able to do so much!
Josh was overjoyed quickly taking the newly acquired pills and the sent blockers and finnaly what was it? A couple year ago since he last went to the market? Never being able to. Fearing the Alpha's there whould pounce on him but now he was hidden..
He grabed a massive list of the supplies he had to get from the market and headed there. Feeling weird yet enthusiastic about being able to buy yhe things he wanted he spent the entire day shopping fully forgetting that the sent blockers ussualy wear out after a certain time.
Hey.. ***a quiet shy omega steped up to Josh they seemed to be in a bad conditions. It was mating season and they smelt strongly of a Alpha's marking.*** you.. I..
Yeah? ***Josh put on a facade of a alpha the quiet and timid omega spoke slowly*** I know.. I know what you are.. please help me. I can't take it I'll die. I'll die if my alpha dosent stop.
***the omega trembled but Josh knew he couldn't do much. He was poor himself alive and free via meer chance... yet.. standing there it felt wrong to simply turn away so Josh asked suprising even himself with the question***
Are you willing to abandon the social construct biult up till now?
The omega nodded lastly and so Josh grabed the omegas hand and slipped away in the alleyways spraying down the omega with the sceant repellant so no one could tell where he gone to. And the two took the first bus.
