They had been so prepared to spend Steve's heat together. This was their first one.
And god, how did it go so bad so quickly?
For the first time ever, Eddie canceled Hellfire, just so he would be able to spend the weekend.
The doorbell rang, echoing throughout the home. Eddie sighed, pulling away from a whining Steve, giving the omega a little nuzzle.
"Fuckin son of a bitch. Who the hell is at the damn door—what the—Henderson?! What are you doing here, pup?" Eddie tried to keep the kid out of the house. Dustin, however, was having none of that. He managed to wiggle his way in, muttering how he left his math notebook there after last night's movie night.
Eddie then realized Dustin left that very notebook in the master bedroom, where a very much in-heat Steve was resting. Eddie scrambled after him, but the little pup had some speed to him.
Dustin was completely in his own head, ignoring the extremely strong scent of an omega in heat.
Dustin opens the door, ignoring the huge nest in the middle of the room, and goes to the side to snag the notebook before freezing. "Oh! Shit! I'm so-so sorry!" Dustin stuttered out, finally smelling the strong scent of vanilla bean and waffle cone. Steve’s scent.
Eddie sighed, "Come on, Dustin. Let's just get you out". Before Eddie could actually pull Dustin out of the room, the scent that filled the room went sour.
Eddie rushed over to drag Dustin out, and that's when Dustin realized Eddie was shirtless.
As Eddie was about to get Dustin out, Dustin was pounced back by Steve, pushing the pup into the nest before moving to growl at Eddie.
Eddie put his hands up and sighed, "...Please, baby..." The alpha froze. This wasn't a regular heat anymore; it was a damn nesting heat now.
"Dammit, Henderson..." Eddie murmured, backing away from the nesting omega.
"Eddie?! What the hell is going on... Why does Steve smell so weird... sweet?" Dustin muttered as he was pulled into Steve's chest.
"Oh, Henderson, you little cockblock... Stevie's in heat and your pup scent hit his instincts like a train. It's not a normal heat anymore, now it's a nesting heat". Steve growled again at Eddie as he stepped closer to the nest. Eddie sighed, "Guess I'll just go sleep on the couch now."
A few hours later, Dustin woke up completely wrapped up in Steve. Dustin felt fuzzy, but he pushed that thought away and managed to wiggle out of the omega's grip and escape the nest.
He managed to sneak past Eddie in the dining room to the front door. He was going to be late for school. He also snagged a jacket from the nearby coat rack, as it was cold outside, not realizing it was Eddie's.
At school, Mike sniffed him and then froze. "Dude, did Steve fuckin lay on top of you for a week straight?"
Dustin glared at him, "The hell are you saying... Oh". He smelled himself; he smelled purely of vanilla bean and waffle cones, with a tad bit of sandalwood from Eddie's jacket, "Ah shit..."
"Dude, what the fuck happened?" Lucas asked.
"I dunno man! I went to grab my math notebook that I left at Steve's house, and when I got in, he wouldn't let me out!"
Will covered his mouth in horror, "Dear God... Dustin... you messed with Steve's head. You're lucky Eddie hasn't come by to drag you back to the nest".
"No... he wouldn't do that... I think... I dunno, I gotta study for the quiz. I'll see y'all at lunch," Dustin said quickly, rushing off.
"He is so screwed, isn't he?" Mike asked, and Will just sighed, "Very".
Dustin made it about halfway through the math quiz before he was called to the front office. Dustin was confused; his mom would never pick him up early. He walked into the office and froze.
The office stunk of sandalwood and leather.
The lady in front of the desk, Glinda, looked terrified. Eddie was pacing, only snapping to attention when Dustin walked in.
"Eddie? What are you doing—ow!" Dustin yelped as Eddie grabbed him by the back of the neck and dragged him out of the office to the parking lot, where Eddie's van was parked.
"You left the nest and upset the omega. Now you're going back," Eddie growled.
The alpha opened the back of the van and tossed Dustin into the pile of towels, clothes, and blankets. Both Eddie's and Steve's scents covered the clothes. Eddie made sure that Dustin was covered in the small nest before dropping off Dustin's bag in the passenger seat and moving to the driver's seat, turning up the music and driving back to Steve's house.
Every time Dustin tried to wiggle out of the small nest, he was hit by another wave of omega and alpha scent. So the pup ended up about halfway scent-drunk when Eddie pulled into the driveway.
It took Eddie a moment to pull Dustin away from the small nest.
Before even closing the front door, Dustin was ripped away from Eddie, and Steve quickly took the pup back to the master bedroom, tucking him into the furthest corner of the nest.
Eddie walked in on Steve, basically lying on top of the pup.
"It's going to be a long week, isn't it?" Eddie murmured.
Steve growled at him.
"...Sounds about right,” Eddie sighed, leaning against the door, away from the nest.
