Theo Raeken Imagines

Both Of Us

"Theo!" You said and waved at him as he wandered down the corridor. You felt awkward as people stared at you, mostly girls who clearly liked Theo. Stiles and Scott glared at you as you passed them.

"Hey (Y/N)." He said as he walked over to you. "Hows Mr... Whatever his name is?" Theo asked, chuckling when you sighed.

"He is the worst! Just because we didn't get much homework from Coach he doubled ours from him!" You complained. Theo snickered at you as you continued a dramatic retelling of your class yesterday evening.

"What's up with those two?" You asked suddenly. Theo followed your subtle gesture to Scott and Stiles who were scowling at the two of you.

"Who knows. Stilinski always has a problem with someone, apparently." Theo muttered. He smiled when you tried to cram everything in your locker and frowned.

"Why would he have a problem with us, I've never spoken to them before, maybe you did something. Are you gunning for team captain?" You asked, jumping when all of your books tumbled out of your locker.

"Not that I know of." He said as he caught some of your books. Once you'd sorted your bag the bell rang and you dashed off, yelling goodbye to Theo over your shoulder as you rushed along, people darting out of your way so you wouldn't collide with them.

"When she finds out you're evil she won't like you." Stiles said as he and Scott approached him.

"Stiles we were going to try and be nice." Scott hissed.

"Look at him he has that whole evil thing going!" Stiles objected. The two pulled away, bickering instead of asking for whatever they had wanted. Leaving Theo a moment to indulge in the scent that hung around your locker before heading off to class.

********************

You woke in a panic. Tracy had said there was an emergency. That Theo needed help but when you'd arrive terrifying people were there instead. You couldn't move, despite trying your hardest. When it felt like a weight of panic was clamping down on your chest you began franticly kicking and pulling at restraints.

"NO!" You heard bellowed from somewhere inside. It made your heart beat even faster and you wanted nothing more than to be free of the restraints. A door opened and a a horrifying noise flooded over you.

You closed your eyes and tried to calm your breathing, ready to beg and plead to be let go. When you opened then you screamed, utter fear took any self preservation from you. Turning your head in an attempt to get away from the monsters in front of you, you saw Theo, clawing his way along the floor. As pain shot through you, there was a howled scream, from you or Theo you didn't know and you didn't get the chance as you blacked out.

When you woke there was noise, it filled the room, it made your head spin and vibrate. You couldn't focus. Everything felt. Felt more. Like you could smell and hear everything at once. "(Y/N)?" Theo asked as he exploded into the room.

"Theo those people, what's happening!" You asked, your voice oddly weak.

"I... I've been trying to get you out of here for days." He admitted, you frowned when you realised his cuts were slowly healing. "I'm so sorry I didn't stop them. They told me it would happen if I didn't stop... They thought you were a distraction."

"Who. What were those things, what's going on?" You asked as Theo sliced through your restraints. "You have claws." You gasped and reached out for his hands.

He smiled in awe as you inspected him, forgetting for a moment the danger, experiments or your new found abilities. "You do too." He muttered taking your hand in his and poking your hand a little, you squealing in surprise when the finger he was pestering grew a claw. "You'll get used to it."

He jumped when you burst into tears and fell into him. Without thinking he scooped you up, carrying you through the rooms that he'd battled through to get you, glaring at the McCall pack who he now owed a favour. "What'll I tell my family, I was kidnapped by crazy people and... and now I grow claws?" You asked tearfully as you hid your face in Theo's neck.

"The sheriff knows about things like us, he'll make an excuse and your parents don't even have to know till you're ready. I'm not going anywhere, I'll help you."

"You're sure. You'll help me even though I grow claws... you have claws too. OH MY GOSH THEO WE'RE ZOMBIES!" You shrieked and stared at him as he cracked up, laughing as he stopped carrying to out of the building to wait for the Sheriff like he'd been instructed by Scott.

"We're Chimeras, both of us, I think we're the only ones left alive to be honest. We're like werewolves just a it more dangerous." Theo explained, smiling at you as you burrowed closer into him and sighed.

"That sounds scarier than a zombie." You said. He glanced down at you and realised you were slipping into shock. He felt your hand stroke his shoulder as you tried to keep yourself with him.

"Fuck... Hey try and stay awake ok, everyone's on their way and we'll get you to the hospital. Well. To Mrs McCall." He said gently, glancing up when the first car pulled into the drive and the Sheriff rushed out with Stiles close behind.
