Thiam Alternatives/Oneshots

Thiam

It had been weeks since Theo had properly slept with all the things happening around Beacon Hills and his own life. The nightmares in which his sister continuously ripped his heart out of his chest were a daily thing by now and Theo had no idea how to get rid of those, at all.

Theo had driven his car to a cliff where he could see the whole city of Beacon Hills. As cheesy as it sounds, he loved the way the houses were light up, creating this golden glow in the city making it look peaceful which was far from the truth. Theo enjoyed it, no hunters trying to get his head on a stick and no Malia annoying him.

A content sigh left his lips as he closed his eyes and breathed in. If only he could feel as calm as he does right now all the time. Theo slowly opened up his eyes and walked back to his car, slowly getting in. He took his blanket from the backseat, trying to get comfy.

Theo was woken up to the sound of a knock on his car window, making him slightly jump. A torch was pointed at him, the light blinding Theo and making a groan get past his lips. Theo's eyes widened when he realized who was the person who had woken him up.

"Liam what the fuck are you doing in the middle of the woods at night?"
"Get out of the car Theo", Liam said slightly annoyed.

Theo got out of his car, slamming his door closed. "You're the one who woke me up I should be the annoyed one here."
"Shut up Theo. Why aren't you sleeping in your home?" Liam asked his voice full of concern this time.

"Dunbar, you really crack me up sometimes", Theo still was confused as to why he liked this dumbass who was quite the clueless one often.
Liam furrowed his eyebrows together, trying to figure out what was going on. Truth be told, he had never seen Theo go home or even talk about it. Liam's eyes widened as he finally had figured out.

"You live in your car?" Liam slowly asked, just to be sure. A chuckle got past Theo's lips as he shook his head. Out of all the boys in Beacon Hills he had to fall for this one.

"I can see now why Mason is the smart one."

"Theo you can't sleep in your car, that can't be comfortable or legal even." Liam was looking straight into Theo's eyes, trying to figure him out. Ever since he had gotten Theo out of hell he had changed, in a positive way but in also a worrying type of way. He looked scared most of the time, making Liam's heart break.

"Done it for weeks now, getting used to my muscles aching all the time."
"I don't want you to sleep in your car, I have a spare mattress in my room in which you can sleep on. It would definitely be more comfortable than your car."

"Oh, is little Dunbar worried?" Theo smirked as he looked at the younger boys cheeks flush red. "Just... Shut up Theo and drive your car to my place," Liam said as he walked over to the other side of the car and got in.

Theo looked around Liam's room, this was his first time ever in it. Much to his surprise it wasn't messy like every typical teenagers room usually is. Liam was shifting around, making room for Theo's stuff and the mattress.

"Dunbar, you really don't have to do this," Theo said with a sigh. He was grateful for everything Liam had done for him, he was the one who got him out of hell for god's sake.
Liam turned around to look at the brown haired boy, really not knowing what to say. He cared about Theo, much more than he actually should. Instead of saying anything, he just pointed at the mattress that was ready for Theo.

"You can go and change in the bathroom, if you want to." Liam said with a sigh.

Theo raised his eyebrows at Liam's words, only for a smirk to appear on his face. Theo turned around and slowly took off his shirt, knowing fully well Liam was watching.

"What are you doing?" Liam asked, his voice quiet. When he proposed (or almost forced) Theo to come live in his house until he found another place to sleep in instead of his car.

Theo let out a chuckle, his mind instantly going back to the moment when Liam first asked him that in the hospital. He still remembers that night like it was yesterday. It was the first time in years that Theo had done something that wasn't selfish. He was glad he did it for Liam, he really liked that boy and would actually sacrifice his life for him.

"It's been a while since you've said that" he simply said as he went to take off his pants, leaving him in only his underwear. Theo was quiet as he listened to Liam's heart rate go up with his every move. "Liam, your gay is showing."

Liam was taken back by Theo's words, trying to not stare at his back muscles. Liam quickly coughed in an attempt to get himself back together again. "I'm not gay, what are you talking about?" Theo once again shook his head, turning around once again before walking closer to Liam. "I can read your chemosignals, remember? You might not be gay, but there sure as hell is no heterosexual explanation for this."

Both of their heartbeats were going crazy, they both could hear it. They both knew fully well they saw each other as more than friends, but none of them were doing a concrete move. Liam was now pushed against the wall, the distance between the two boys only being a mere centimeters. "Liam?" Theo breathed out as he looked at the shorter boy in the eyes.

"Yes?" Liam whispered as his eyes unwillingly fluttered close.

"Would it be bad if I liked you? As like in the like you way that it'd be cool to pin you against a wall and kiss you?"

If it even were possible at this point, Liam's heartbeat quickened. He couldn't believe what he was hearing right now. The guy he had liked even when he still was with his now ex-girlfriend actually liked him back, and he wasn't even dreaming.

"No. I might feel the same way," Liam said with his eyes still closed, not daring to open them up. With that Theo closed the gap between the two, his lips meeting Liam's soft ones. Their lips moved in perfect sync, making all those fireworks that everyone talk about go off  in Theo's stomach.

It felt good, hell, it felt right. It was like Liam was the thing that was missing in Theo's life until this very moment. Theo pulled away with a smile as both of their eyes fluttered open. Theo moved his hand to Liam's cheek, carefully caressing it with his thumb. They were just standing there, in a comfortable silence and looking into each others eyes. For the first time in a while they were both happy.

"Liam?" Theo broke the silence between the two after a few minutes.

Liam just hummed as an answer, not bothering to speak up this time. "What the fuck were you doing in the woods in the middle of the night?"

A blush creeped up on Liam's face for the second time that night. "I was on a walk trying to calm myself down, I didn't want to have another one of those nights when I run around the woods naked. Scott wasn't exactly happy about that slip up."

"I can't believe you're the guy I like." Theo said with a laugh, as he leaned in to kiss Liam again.
