“Okay, Theo I need to clean it. This is going to hurt a little. Is it okay if I touch you?” Melissa asks, waiting for a response. Theos eyes snap up at her and he makes a big show of rolling them. “It’s fine.” He says dismissively and goes back to looking at the roof fairly indifferent despite bleeding out on her couch.
Most people wouldn’t think twice about it, would take what the boy says at face value. But she knows Theo is very good at lying and Melissa has been a nurse for a long time. She knows when someone has a problem with touch, and Theo Raeken has an overflowing bucket of past medical trauma he refuses to acknowledge. But, he’s given her his permission and he’d probably rather sink back into the floor then address it with her right now.

Theo is forced into the pack against his will when Melissa finds out he's ticklish. Melissa and Chris become Theos self appointed guardians of the wayward teen.

Whumptober Day 20: “People don’t change people, time does.” | Blanket | Found Family | “You will regret touching them.”
Words: 3.0k
Summary: Theo waited his entire life to be a knight. He finally claims his title from the young, blue-eyed King, but celebrations are cut short when their enemies storm the castle to take the crown. Theo's not one to back down from an impossible fight, especially when it means protecting his King.
This image, the King and his knight back to back, in a dim hall surrounded by enemies, is the motivation Theo needs to lunge forward to meet the first few people. Swords collide, squealing
metal against metal hitting his ears. He spins his, kicking someone back. He looks back to Liam, long coat swishing around his torso as he spins, silver sword flashing in the moonlight. Theo
learned brutal and efficient sword play his entire life, nothing fancy, but Liam fights more like a dance than a war.
When his back presses back against Liam’s, chest heaving with unsteady breaths, a hand taps at his waist. On both sides of them, bodies litter the ground, attackers regrouping while the two rest for just a minute.
“I like your style,” Theo compliments lamely, to which Liam laughs.
“Such a charmer.”
When they separate again, switching sides to plow through, Theo can practically hear his heart pounding in his ears, feel it in the
back of his throat. He checks behind him every few seconds,
keeping a close eye on his King. This is all futile if he lets someone get to him.
I have to get him out of here.

Theo and Liam as parents
Theo walks into the house to complete silence, weird considering Liam is usually entertaining the twins when he gets home from work. He goes to the living room and sees the reason why it’s so quiet.
Liam on the couch with Camden and Isla, all three of them asleep. Theo smiles and drapes a blanket across the three of them. He sees a note on the table next to the couch, it says:
T. Please try to be as quiet as you can, if the twins wake up I don’t know if I could get them to calm back down enough. Love Li.
Theo chuckles under his breath as he goes to their room to read.
Two hours later an alarm goes off in the living room and Theo immediately hears muffled voices trying to wake Liam up. He sets his book down and walks out of the room to see the twins jumping on the couch.
“Dad, wake up!” Isla shouts, “Dad! Dad! Dad! Wake up!” Camden yells, shaking Liam a little. Liam opens his eyes and smiles at them before Theo speaks up, “What did I say about jumping on the furniture kids?” Camden and Isla turn to him, “Papa!” they shout in unison, jumping off the couch to give him a hug.
After dinner the twins brush their teeth then go to their rooms to get ready for bed. “Goodnight Camden.” Liam and Theo say, turning off the light in Camden’s room, “G’night dad, night papa.” Camden responds, holding onto the stuffed wolf Liam had made him.
They go into Isla’s room to see her reading a book about the moon. She sets her book down on her nightstand as Liam tucks her in and Theo turns on her nightlight. “Did you know that the Moon was made by a rock smashing into the Earth?” she asks them, “Really?” Theo questions, “Yeah. I think it’s really interesting.” she responds, before grabbing her stuffed wolf and turning to her side. “That is really interesting, Isla. But it’s time to sleep, okay?” Liam says, “Okay dad. Goodnight.” she answers, “Goodnight sweetie.” Liam and Theo say before turning off the light.
"I know how scared you were about this when you were younger, but I really think you've been a great parent." Theo states, sitting down on the couch next to Liam, “Really?” Liam asks, “Yes really, you dork.” Theo answers, Liam laughs a little. “Thanks, T.” he says, leaning in closer to the taller one, “No problem, Li.” the other responds.

If I may share some of my innocuous headcanons
P.S. anything that happened after S6 didn't happen. And half of the stuff that happened after S3 didn't happen like that.
Hales
Peter has an identical twin named Thomas. He hates Thomas and Thomas doesn't understand why, but Peter argues he knows what he did (he doesn't)
Peter and Thomas have a triplet sister. Her name is Shane. (This is what happens when I try to play out the Hale family tree in the Sims)
There is another sister between Peter and Talia. Her name is Shannon. She was 15 when her mother announced her surprise pregnancy. Talia was stunned and Shannon broke down in tears
Talia: You're not going to be the least favorite
Shannon: Oh, is it going to be the baby? Is it going to be you?
Talia: ... You're right, you're going to be the least favorite
Talia didn't like how Thomas and Shane had jobs and Peter didn't, so she made him get one after school. It didn't matter what it was as long as he was working. He tried (unsuccessfully) to get himself fired
It's also where he met Corinne. Malia and Jackson (obviously he's Peter's kid) were conceived in a Macy's changing room
If Peter had a say in naming his kids, he would have either chosen Celia and Collin (after his parents who died when he was young) or Petra and Peter Jr.
(According to my Sims game) Derek has 7 sisters. You've heard of Laura and Cora, now get ready for Zora, Nora, Aurora, Flora, and Dora
Brett says his family was killed in a fire. If this town had more than one family killing fire, people would know that (and hopefully mention it). Brett and Lori are cousins of the Hales
Sometimes the family visits their Great Aunt Barkley. That's just what they call her, no one knows her real relation, her real name, or which side of the family she's related to
Talia and Deucalion were besties. He definitely had unrequited feelings for her
When Cora was young, she was pissed she wasn't getting attention since she's the baby, so she cut her hair off into a choppy bob
The Hales have a famous recipe for mashed potatoes and cheesecake. It is a huge deal if a Hale introduces the recipe to someone they're dating. They may as well be engaged
No one born into the Hale family is straight. It's illegal
If Peter had been born a girl, his name would have been Charlotte
Non-Hales
Stiles has identical twin girls that Noah cannot tell apart to save his life. Luckily, Melissa can
To prank Rafael, when Scott was in college he made up fake children named Chad Daniel and Emma. He uses photoshop to send his father their school photos. He did it really poorly too (on purpose) and even after years of this going on, Rafael refuses to believe he doesn't have grandchildren he's never met named Chad Daniel and Emma
Scott names his real daughter Emma, but his son is not named Chad Daniel
As a child, Allison's dream job was dancer
Chris is bisexual, but never really put it together. Allison had to come out for him
After Kira finished her training with the skinwalkers, she left California to earn her degree, but she came back to work in Beacon Hills
Ethan and Aiden's mother is a flight attendant and when she was away, baby Ethan developed a fever. His father didn't know what to do and put him in the fridge to cool down. If Ethan died, his father was going to tell his wife that she was so high on drugs she hallucinated having twins and there was only just Aiden
Theo got heat stroke on a first date because he refused to take off his leather jacket
