War of hearts // Thiam

We need to talk

"Theo what the fuck!" I rolled my eyes as Stiles marched into the house.

"What is it now Stiles?" I was sat on the sofa my arm draped around Liam's shoulders. I hadn't let him go since the Hayden business and had no desire to any time soon.

"Did you tell Derek that I like him?"

"You like Derek!" Liam shot up.

"Where did you come from!"

"No Stiles I didn't tell Derek. Why?" I asked confused.

"He text me saying 'we need to talk' no one does that unless it's extreme circumstances like my one!"

"He could be wanting to talk about anything Stiles. You don't know it's about that?" I sighed.

"Who else knows?" Liam said still offended he hadn't been told.

"Just me Liam."

"Why didn't you tell me!"

"It's not my place to say." I put my hands up in defence. Liam crossed his arms pouting.

"Yeah the only reason he knows Liam is because he read my diary." Stiles said harshly.

"Hey don't leave it lying about it your room then!"

"It was under my pillow!"

"That's lying about!" Stiles's phone buzzed.

"He wants to meet me at his! Tonight!"

"What why?"

"What part of him saying 'we need to talk' don't you understand Raeken!"

"But why at his!" I said pulling a face.

"I don't know I'm not Derek!"

"Yeah I can see that with you being skinny and not smoking hot!" I said and Liam and stiles both pulled a face.

"Excuse me?" Liam said raising an eyebrow.

"You're ten times hotter." I said smugly and Liam huffed.

"Like I didn't know that." Stiles rolled his eyes.

"Uh excuse me!" He said impatiently.

"I don't know what you want me to do about it stiles? The worst Derek will do is say he doesn't like you, you'll get over it."

"Your right. Your right I should just go and face him straight on."

"Yep, exactly what you should do."

"I should just go for it."

"Behind you 100%."

"Right I guess I need to go meet Derek?"

"Text me how it goes!" I shouted as Stiles left.

"Who was that?" Scott asked coming down the stairs.

"Just Stiles. Though I think Isaac was more interesting right?" I said and Liam snorted.

"What?"

"Scott we have super hearing remember. You being a bottom is quite surprising actually." I said simply. I didn't see Scott go red but by the way his heart beat spiked I knew he was flustered. Liam was trying not to laugh next to me.

"Uh why didn't you leave?" He asked and I shrugged.

"Pretty used to it. And I taught myself how to block shit like that out from a young age."

"You did?" Liam wasn't laughing anymore and turned to me.

"Oh yeah. My Mum and Dad were terrible! When he wasn't hitting me and Tara he was fucking my mum till the godly hours of the morning." I said shrugging.

"When he wasn't what?" Liam breathed and I turned to look at him. He had a look of pure horror on his face. I turned to Scott who bore the same expression.

"Well shit..." I muttered moving my arm off Liams shoulders and standing up.

"That's enough talk about me. Scott where's Isaac?"

"Theo!" Liam grabbed my wrist. "You can't just say that and get up like it was nothing."

"Liam that was 10 years ago. I'm over it!"

"You can't say that!" Liam shot up, "Y-you can't just say that your dad hit you and think it doesn't mean anything! I'm not okay with that." I pulled my arm out of his grasp and walked into the kitchen.

"Theo Raeken don't you walk away from me!" Liam said chasing after me.

"What Liam? You expect me to open up about everything that monster did to me all of a sudden? Why do you think I hid it from you for so long! I hid it from everyone! What he did to me is not for the faint heart." I said feeling the tears threaten to push at my eyes. I wasn't going to cry! Liam had made me too soft.

"You can't expect me to be okay with the fact that your dad abused you! Theo w-we can do something about it. I-"

"I already did something about it Liam! Him and my mother are laying dead in holes in the middle of the forest!" Liams expression turned into shock.

"I killed my parents Dunbar. And there's nothing you can do about it." I expected Liam to walk away from me. Scott to kick off about me killing them. And Liam would leave me alone again.

But he didn't. Scott didn't shout, still frozen to the spot watching the argument. Liam didn't walk away but rather he walked towards me wrapping his arms around my neck pulling me close.

"I love you so much don't you ever forget that." He said his voice quivering. I bit my lip pushing the tears back again.

"I love you too." I said my arms snaking around his waist.

"I'm sorry for pushing you." I smiled sadly.

"I'm sorry for shouting." He chuckled.

"With us, there's always shouting involved." He said and I nodded.

"Always."

"I heard shouting is everyone okay?" Isaac came down the stairs, his hair wet having just come out the shower and I must say he looked kinda hot. Scott's mouth fell open and he gawped at Isaac.

"What?" Isaac chuckled seeing Scott staring at him.

"You are so hot." He blurted out and Isaac laughed.

"You're not so bad yourself Mcall." He pecked Scott on the cheek moving to get something out of the fridge.

"We should go or they might start doing it right here." I whispered in Liams ear making him snort again.

"I heard that Raeken!" Isaac said not turning around.

"Then you know it's true." I said grabbing my jacket from the closet.

"I'll be back later," Liam grabbed his jacket from the sofa and we left shutting the door and locking it. I listened into the kitchen.

"Oh look at that we were right." I rolled my eyes.

"Yes..." Liam shuddered, "We need to talk."

God Stiles was right.
