There was nothing more rewarding than watching Izuminokami run around, joyfully indulging in everything denied to him. To foods that were considered too fattening or climbing one of the trees that were planted in the Kunihiro gardens. He wasn't allowed to eat sweets because “nobody wanted an obese omega” and what if he got hurt as he ran around? A potential scar could ruin his potential.
To Horikawa, that was unfair to any child. Omega, alpha, or beta. All children were the same and should be allowed a chance to be a kid. He didn't want to spoil his young omega too much, but he also wanted him to enjoy his youth. Which was why he had servants bring out lunch, a rather big feast for a young kid. But Izuminokami had shown himself to have a big appetite. He could easily down all the sandwiches offered to him and still ask for more sweets.
“Kane-san,” Horikawa called up the tree Izuminokami was still trying to climb up. A new nickname he'd come up with, which still made the child wrinkle his nose at. But it fit him. “Lunch is ready. I had them make your favorite and maybe there's a few of your favorite candies.”
“Yeah?” Izuminokami looked down from a branch, face filled with joy. Horikawa never wanted to see that face disappear. It didn't take long for him to climb down as Horikawa waited below just in case the child fell. But Izuminokami was nimble and very flexible. He was good at climbing trees and he'd complained for a good fifteen minutes when he told Horikawa his parents had made him stop. When Horikawa had shown him the big tree with numerous branches in his garden, offering it for a climb, Izuminokami had actually hugged him before scrambling up it. Though Horikawa had plucked him off to take off his nice robes and giving him some old ones of his that he was allowed to play in. Horikawa knew that the Kanesada family must have paid most of the money they still had to buy those robes for their only omega and only chance for some recognition. Horikawa wouldn't let the money be wasted even if he had distaste for the family.
Horikawa sat down beside Izuminokami as he wolfed down sandwich after sandwich. It was impolite how he ate and he got crumbs all over his face and lap. But Horikawa smiled and brushed at his bangs.
“Eh, what?” Izuminokami said with a mouth full of food.
“Don't talk with your mouth full,” Horikawa scolded, though lightly.
Izuminokami wiped at his mouth with his arm. “Why? I thought you didn't care how I acted.”
“Even alphas and betas shouldn't talk with their mouth full. It's gross. Do you want to be gross? Besides, you could choke. Swallow your food first, then talk.”
Taking a big bite, Izuminokami glared as he chewed a few times and opened his mouth wide to show all the barely chewed food. He was pushing his limits, trying to see how far he could go. Any child would do it, but with Izuminokami, it was endearing how he wanted to see how far he could go. Despite how improper it was, Horikawa smiled and shut Izuminokami's mouth.
“Really, Kane-san. It's gross. I don't like it. Would you like it if I did it?”
Finishing his chewing, Izuminokami swallowed before swatting Horikawa's hands away. “I wouldn't care. I'd think it was funny!”
“Yeah? And what if I got my chewed up food all over your face as I talked with my mouth open?”
“That's gross!” Izuminokami shouted, completely offended at the idea.
“See? So don't do it.”
The second sandwich on the plate was already gone with only one left. It wasn't surprising he ate so much when he ran around with more energy than any child should possess. No wonder he hated finishing classes. It was probably awful for a rambunctious child to sit through. Izuminokami took a big gulp of milk, leaving a mustache which Horikawa wiped off.
“You touch me a lot.” Izuminokami gave him a look that showed he was making a statement he knew omegas shouldn't make. Omegas didn't get to question their alpha's actions. “You still don't expect me to kiss you?”
“I told you it was gross.”
Izuminokami comically squinted his eyes, showing how suspicious he was. “I don't know, Kunihiro. I think you're lying. You're a grown-up. Grown-ups like kissing.”
“How can I like something I've never done, though?”
“Come on! You're older than me! You've kissed someone!”
“I haven't. Who would I kiss when you're my first omega? So, Kane-san, maybe I do just find kissing pretty gross. Like look at you right now.”
Izuminokami glared. “What about me? I'm not gross.”
“But your mouth is. You just ate sandwiches with all that mayonaise. I bet your mouth's all gross and everything, huh?”
Though there wasn't any good, Izuminokami opened his mouth wide to show its contents. His tongue was coated white and bits of food still clung to his teeth. Horikawa sighed and made him close his mouth again, making Izuminokami start laughing. “It was gross, right?”
“Really gross and I definitely don't want to kiss you. So see? I'm not lying at all. We don't have to kiss.”
Izuminokami smirked. “I still think you're lying. You'll want to have kids with me and probably mate with me too. It's what alphas do.”
There was something unnerving about a child talking like this and just another reason why Horikawa found himself displeased with the Kanesada family. “Well, you're not like other omegas, right?”
“No way!”
“Then I'm not like other alphas. We do what you want.”
Izuminokami hummed. “Mm, I guess it's kind of like I'm an alpha, huh? I can do whatever I want!”
“When you're with me, yes. And to a certain limit.”
“Yeah? What limit?”
“You'll see.”
Izuminokami stared at him, as if he was waiting to see when all of this turned out to be a trick before grabbing a chocolate and popping it in his mouth as he swung his legs off of the porch. “You're so weird, Kunihiro. My parents say they think you're super weird, but that I better keep you happy. 'Cause I hit the jackpot!”
Horikawa would have loved to see the faces on the Kanesada clan if they heard how their child was talking. “Do they? Do you think you did?”
“Eh, I don't know. I like being able to do things like eat all the food I want and climb trees. I guess other alphas would make me kiss them.”
“You're a little young for kissing.” Horikawa really didn't want to think about the fact that Izuminokami wasn't exactly wrong and that had been another reason why he'd immediately claimed the child for himself. As wild as Izuminokami was, he was still so completely innocent. To see that destroyed? Horikawa didn't think there was anything worse.
“I'm not a baby!”
“Sorry, sorry. I wasn't trying to say you were, but you're not a grown-up yet. And grown-ups kiss. People your age play and do whatever they want.”
“My parents say kids my age need to learn their place.”
“Your parents say a lot of things, Kane-san.”
“Ugh, they do. They should shut up. Can you shut them up? You're some big name, right? I bet you could make them shut up.”
Horikawa smiled and patted his head. “It doesn't work that way unfortunately.” He didn't voice that he wished it did, sometimes. Nor did he explain that a 'big name' could be just as stifling as any other position, but in entirely different ways.
Izuminokami hit his hand away, frowning. “That's stupid shit.”
“You shouldn't talk that way.” Horikawa gave him a disappointed look. As much as he wanted for the omega to have as much freedom as possible, he was still a kid who had to understand how things worked. And no kid, omega or not, should talk like that.
“Shit, fuck, ass, damn!” Izuminokami grinned. “What'cha gonna do?” He stared at Horikawa, waiting to see the other's reaction. “Gonna slap me?”
“No,” Horikawa answered immediately. Never did he want to raise a hand to him. “But I would like if you tried not to do that. You don't sound as nice.”
“I don't want to sound nice! I wanna talk how I want.” Izuminokami whined. “I bet you can say all sorts of words.”
“In private, but even I can't talk that way in front of people.”
“Why? You're a Kunihiro and that means you can do whatever you want.”
Horikawa sighed and ruffled his hand again, immediately causing Izuminokami to squawk and push his hand away again. “You'll see one day. But for now, we better get you back in your robes. Your parents will be back in an hour.”
“But I hate them! They're hot and I trip on them sometimes. Can't you tell my parents you don't want me in them? Say I'm more beautiful in these clothes you let me wear. Tell them you think I'm super pretty in them!”
“Sorry, but you're still their child. Their rules, I'm afraid. And even I can't lie and say you look more pretty in plain things. You do look very beautiful in the nice clothes your parents spent so much money on. But you can still wear these clothes when it's just us.”
Izuminokami glared, popping another chocolate in his mouth as he chewed angrily. “What good are you if you can't make my parents do what I want them to?”
“Sorry, sorry. But I have a father who wants me to do certain things, too. It's just how it goes.”
“It's stupid shit.”
Horikawa took a pause and then agreed, “It is stupid shit.”
Izuminokami's eyes widened and when Horikawa winked at him, he began laughing. “I got you to say a swear! I did it!”
As long as he could keep him happy like this forever, Horikawa thought he could deal with whatever else came along with the whirlwind that was Izuminokami Kanesada.
To Horikawa, that was unfair to any child. Omega, alpha, or beta. All children were the same and should be allowed a chance to be a kid. He didn't want to spoil his young omega too much, but he also wanted him to enjoy his youth. Which was why he had servants bring out lunch, a rather big feast for a young kid.
