One morning, out of the blue, Katsuki does not let Eijirou leave...

1
One morning, out of the blue, Katsuki does not let Eijirou leave their nest.
2
He lets him get up, shower, brush his teeth. Because he joins him for most of it, which isn’t that abnormal. Maybe a lot more touching and scenting than usual.
3
But the moment Eijirou starts trying to gather his things to head to the agency, Katsuki /growls/.
4
And Eijirou just stops and blinks at him. Because this growl is real — not even his sex growl.
5
Katsuki growls again, stepping forward. Eijirou isn’t scared of him or the low timber rumbling deep from his chest, but he still takes one step back.
6
It is not a conscious thought so much as it’s instinct.
7
It must be for Katsuki too. Because the second step Eijirou takes back from his boyfriend’s growling, seemingly makes his eyes glow.
8
And then, the back of his knees touch the bed.
9
The growling ceases like it’s been shut off with a switch.

Eijirou doesn’t know what to think as his mate shoves eagerly into his neck.
10
Especially when his boyfriend starts fucking /purring/.
11
“K-Katsuki…?”

They are neck to neck, skin hot to the touch. Eijirou can feel the way alpha scent saturates him, deep enough to even soak into his pores.
12
For a moment a dizzying, almost drunk-like sensation comes over him, buzzing down all the way to his toes.
13
And then Katsuki says, “Omega. /Nest/.”
14
It isn’t a command, but god, it might as well be.
15
Eijirou all but melts. He’s this close to just laying back down in their nest.
16
Alpha smells good…alpha in nest…
17
/Alpha protect them!/
18
Eijirou’s alarm goes off.
19
He jolts. “Oh shit-!”

He has to be at to work!
20
“Man, I’m going to be so late!”

There’s still that woozy sort of feeling that’s overtaken him, mixing with the sudden shot of adrenaline at the reality of time.
21
It clouds his mind, making it harder for him to pick up on very obvious social cues.

Instead, he takes both of his hands to try and push up out of the nest.
22
That’s when Katsuki snaps.
23
“//STAY//!”
24
Now that- that’s a real command.
25
Eijirou feels his joints lock, growing heavy with invisible weight — as if they’ve turned into lead.
26
It’s another shot of pure ecstasy to his system. Because it’s real- it’s so real. Real enough Eijirou can taste the command on his tongue.

It feels like butterflies in his stomach.
27
It feels like ants crawling underneath his skin. His heart is fit to pound out of his chest. Because nothing, nothing, gets him riled up like Katsuki’s alpha.
28
Eijirou’s omega falls over itself to submit to it.
29
Which works well in Katsuki’s favor.

It only takes one gentle motion for the alpha to scoop him up like a civilian being rescued and — like handling the injured — rest him against their pillows (Katsuki’s side).
30
Eijirou closes his eyes as he’s laid down against the soft sheets, blinking them back open as a warm hand comes to rest against his neck briefly, more scenting, before moving to curl some hair behind his ear.
31
“Stay…” Katsuki murmurs, seemingly soft in his grumbling tone. A quiet affirmation to reiterate an alpha command that’s already worn off.
32
The alpha steps back, watching to see if Eijirou will move for a moment, letting out a pleased, happy breath when he doesn’t.
33
Then, he watches as Katsuki sets to work.
34
It starts with the blankets that have fallen to the floor, because even though Eijirou loves his nest, he’s still Eijirou. And honestly the entire room constitutes as their nest nowadays.
35
But Katsuki collects them with an energy that’s so like him, but so unnecessary for their current environment, tucking them into the nest with precision.
36
Eijirou’s omega preens — good alpha caring about the nest and knowing where to place things.
37
There were so many divides if alphas should participate in the nest building or leave it all to the omegas. Was it manly to know how to nest or did it take away from the role as the nester.

Eijirou didn’t care. The more Katsuki helped, the more his scent got over /everything/.
38
Nothing made him more giddy than knowing how much Katsuki paid attention to him and his nesting whims.
39
Katsuki is so good. He tucks everything in just right, but not tight enough that Eijirou feels it’s inescapable. He tucks back in all of their blankets, refluffs their pillows,
40
even tucks in a few shirts that hadn’t been in the night before, but isn’t a problem because they are his.
41
When Katsuki finishing tucking all the wonderful smells back into their cozy bed nest, he goes the extra mile and actually leaves the bedroom long enough to go and grab the extra throw blanket they leave on the couch for cuddles.

This one smells like them AND the pack.
42
Eijirou watches the proud breath that blows from both nostrils when Katsuki finally finishes.
43
His phone alarm goes off again.
44
Eijirou sees the way his alpha visibly bristles, noticeably tensing with hackles raised. He doesn't even get a chance to reach for it before it's silenced and tossed out of the bedroom.
45
It's about this moment in time when his brain kicks in and Eijirou realizes Katsuki is /serious/ about not allowing him to go to work.
46
To leave their nest.
47
His omega is vibrating underneath his skin with how happy it is.
48
What the hell is going on??
49
"Katsuki," Eijirou breathes, finally breaking over the strange quiet "what is going on with us right now??"
50
And that's when Katsuki turns around to face him -- and blinks.
51
Red eyes connect with his briefly before trailing downward as they take in all that's been done before them.
52
The perfect nest -- /their/ perfect nest -- with Eijirou tucked oh-so-nicely inside. Like the found missing piece of a puzzle, placed neatly back inside its designated spot.
53
It is a satisfaction inside him that knows no bounds.

But now, he wants to know why.
54
Why Eijirou tucked safely in their little nest felt better to him right now than when their cycles matched up and they could enjoy heat/rut sex together.
55
Katsuki looks back up at Eijirou again. "Ei...I think I might go feral if you leave our nest right now."
56
And he's dead serious -- they both know it.
57
Eijirou sits up a fraction, but in no way moving around; trying to avoid anything that may trigger Katsuki's alpha.

There was nothing about his alpha that scared him.
58
Katsuki's alpha /adored/ him. But sometimes it would do things Katsuki didn't approve. His boyfriend liked being in control of everything -- working with his alpha to make Eijirou and his omega happy.

Eijirou would do anything to make sure Katsuki kept that feeling of command.
59
So he does that.

"What can I do, Katsu?"
60
'What can I do to help?'
61
Eijirou watches as Katsuki pinches his eyes shut and takes a deep breath.

"Just- Just stay here for a moment, okay? I'm going to get one of our phones and call in for the both of us. Then we'll...I don't know. Then we will figure out something."
62
Eijirou has to immediately press his lips together. To stop from telling his alpha /no/.

Because it feels /bad/. /Wrong/. Alpha can't leave, alpha /don't/ leave.
63
He swallows. "Go."

"But hurry back." He insists.
64
God, something was really wrong with them.
65
This got longer than I expected so, TOP ⬆️

One morning, out of the blue, Katsuki does not let Eijirou leave their nest.
66
-

Katsuki takes ten minutes. Tops. But it feels like hours…for both of them.
67
Even though Eijirou can hear his alpha, hear his rough, deep voice echoing off the walls…

There’s just a lingering inside that aches like a broken bone on a rainy day.
68
Eijirou wants him back. In their nest. Where he belongs. Just as badly as Katsuki wanted him to stay in it.
69
It’s a suffocating feeling - almost. Like the walls pushing in on him, causing him to choke up. Such a pitiful feeling; especially considering he’s a super hero for godsakes.
70
But that urgency, the hollowness. Knowing he’d be completely devastated if Katsuki wasn’t here at all.
71
His omega whimpers. It sounds too loud in the lonely room.
72
The bedroom door slams open.

“What the fuck happened.”
73
Katsuki’s standing in the doorway, holding the wooden frame in a white knuckle grip.

His silhouette looks like heaven, to Ei.
74
Eijirou reaches out for him.

“Baby…” He whines.
75
His alpha practically lunges into their nest, frantically moving his hands over once they get on him.

“What happened, what’s wrong.”
76
He pushes his hair back, roaming red eyes covering every millimeter they can take in.

It’s overwhelming as it is not enough all at once.
77
Eijirou eagerly nuzzles his hand back. “N’thing.” He murmurs, taking in his scent. “Nothin’, just want you so bad. Think I’m going crazy…!”
78
"I'm right here," Katsuki insists, nosing into his hair, "m'right here and I ain't going anywhere. Period."
79
"I'm going to keep you two safe."
80
There's a beat of silence. Only a moment's pause. Long enough for a breath, a blink. For lips to press together, or for eyes to widen a fraction.

Maybe for all of the above.
81
"Katsu," Eijirou whispers, just after that quiet moment. "Katsuki...why did you- what did you say to me just now?"
82
Katsuki -- deeply buried into his neck, now, gently nipping at his glands and happily kitten-licking anything out that his omega seeps -- kisses against his skin softly.
83
There's a moment where Ei doesn't even know if he's registered his question.

He shudders as his neck is kissed very gently, again.
84
"Kats..."

"Mm..." Their necks come together, two vibrations intermingling as an omega's purr mixed together with an alpha's deep purr-like rumble.
85
He doesn't know if Katsuki's been able to purr this much since their very first bedding.

"I said..."
86
Katsuki's voice sounds airy; deep and dominating like always, but with a lit coming from within.

He sounds so fucking happy. Ei feels his eyes water.
87
"I'm going to protect you. You /two/." He absolutely insists.

Then, there's a loud, sudden breath sucked up through his nose.
88
"Hold the fuck up."
89
A massive grin splits across Eijirou’s face.
90
“Kats…” he whispers, in awe. His voice wet. Pulling from his chest with effort. “/Katsuki/.”
91
Katsuki’s eyes are big, pupils focused. Staring into Ei’s own eyes as they shift back and forth, searching deep within crimson hues, for something.
92
He looks surprised — shocked even. Couldn’t hide the look on his face even if he tried.

He looks everything to Eijirou except disappointed.
93
Eijirou hears him take in a gasp. “Holy fucking shit…! Eijirou—”
94
Eijirou’s laugh echoes off the walls pure and free as his boyfriend /gently/ tackles him into the nest.
95
Katsuki’s face is buried in his neck, breathing heavy — /happy/.

“Fuck Ei…I’ve got to call my agency back…we’ve got to call /yours/ and tell them to take you off hero duty for a while…shit, you need to see a doctor! We have so many fucking extras to call…!”
96
Katsuki was right. There was so much to do now. Now that they knew. Now that their entire lives were about to change.

They really needed to get up.
97
But…it almost felt surreal. Like the perfect dream. As if neither of them had left the nest this morning and instead the two of them still lay here, waiting for the morning sun to peek through the windows, to kiss across their skin and warm the room until
98
reality finally kicked in and their alarm eventually chirped, to remind them to get up and seize the day.
99
But now they were here. All legs and arms stretched across the nest. Katsuki’s warm scent shrouding them from the rest of the world and responsibilities. Keeping them — their pup — tucked safe in their perfect little nest.
100
Katsuki’s dry lips touch the soft skin of his neck in what only can be described as a tender kiss.
101
Eijirou can’t imagine leaving now.
