Sweet Like Candy (BoyxBoy)

A/N: Just a short oneshot about two sweet fools falling in love. I started writing this like ten years ago and only recently got back into writing, so it's a combination of both my past self and my present self's preferences. In an attempt to retain as much of the original story elements my younger self included,  this story includes themes from both the og wattpad werewolf genre and the omegaverse genre. Also, expect some steamy scenes at the end. Complete - 13,329 words.

Chris' pov 

I realised staying up 'til 2am scrolling through my phone was a bad idea when it took seven snoozes of my alarm the next morning to finally drag myself out of bed. 

I groaned as I stumbled my way to my bathroom, running a quick hand through my messy black curls and shocking my system awake with a splash of cold water. Having my own bathroom was just one of the many privileges of being the Alpha's son.

I tripped down the stairs nearly taking someone else with me, but reflexively grabbed hold of them before they lost their balance too.

Staring groggily down at a familiar mop of dyed blond hair I grumbled out, "Sorry."

My nose recognised him immediately - my favourite little omega and the closest thing I had to a brother, Alex.

"Morning, baby," I said fondly, stroking down the soft little hairs that were sticking up all over his head.

He whined his annoyance while trying to duck away from my hand. He had no chance of escaping - at almost 6 foot I towered over him.

I gasped in mock exclamation, "Since when is my baby too old to accept his brother's affection anymore?" 

His usually grey eyes glittered a gorgeous silver as he shot back a cheeky grin that I knew I would never tire of.

I pinched his dimpled cheek in retaliation and let him push past me without a fight.  Although we weren't blood related, I considered everyone in our pack as family and often referred to them as brothers and sisters or aunts and uncles. 

My stomach suddenly growled loudly and I followed my nose towards the divine smells wafting from the kitchen.

After greedily gulping down my breakfast like a starved man I rushed back upstairs to get ready for class. A quick outfit change later and I was sliding into the driver's seat of my car with my two best friends in tow. I adjusted the mirror and rolled my eyes at the idiots already bickering about who had to take the backseat.

As I pulled out of the driveway I caught sight of Alex who was just leaving for school and waved him over to the car.  I shoved my future beta, Brie, out the front seat and shouted at Alex to get in.

Ignoring the two in the back grumbling about "special treatment", I leaned over to do Alex's seatbelt for him once he was settled in.

"Won't you be late if you drop me off first?" He worried his lower lip with his teeth and my eyes couldn't help but be drawn to it.

"It's no problem, baby," I murmured to him, "our morning lecturer is pretty chill about attendance." I finally dragged my gaze from his mouth to take in the rest of him. "And besides, what are you doing leaving without a jacket at this time of year? How can I not worry about you!"

He rolled his eyes in exasperation but the pleased little grin he tried to hide gave him away. He conceded to my mother henning with barely any fight as we both blithely ignored that the weather was still warm enough for short sleeves.

I reached into the backseat to bully Alex into wearing the hoodie I'd left there after playing basketball last week. I frowned when I couldn't find it and realised it wasn't there. With a sigh of defeat I gave up and instead let him steal the aux - despite only having time to hear one song. It was fair to say his school was only a stone's throw away from the pack house.
