I own nothing
AN: I thought of this idea on Easter Sunday, but I hadn't had a chance until right now to work on it. Hope it is still enjoyed even if it's a little late. Got stuck for a bit on He's Not Really A Wolf and wrote this out. I let my muse write this out and the ending was too good to change.
AN2: Thanks TVTime your PM inspire me to finally write this out. I found the time to write it.
Title: I Believe In One Thing
Characters: Liam/Theo
Summary: Liam finds out that there is one thing that Theo does believe in even if he is an atheist.
Liam was baffled and he hadn't been able to process what he was going to actually form into a question. He knew for one hundred percent fact that Theo was an atheist. He reminded him a few times of that ever since he'd told the Sheriff that almost two years before. However, when Liam had gone outside that morning to meet his parents at church Theo had been in his truck. He hadn't been dressed up, up, but he had on good pair of jeans and button down shirt.
Theo had looked damn good; he'd actually wished they'd had time for something else. He'd just been running behind because nothing had been going right that morning. He had lost his keys to his bronco too, which he hadn't found still. He probably should clean his side of the room he was sharing with Theo. He didn't know how it had gotten that messed up in three days. They were on spring break from college since Friday. They had a whole week of stuff to do in Beacon Hills before going back.
One thing he had to do was find his keys, not that he'd need them at college. Theo had refused to let him take the death trap of a bronco as he'd called it. He didn't mind letting Theo drive, sometimes his boyfriend was nice and let him drive the truck. He hadn't almost crashed it since that one time in senior year. It hadn't been his fault though; Theo had been giving him a blow job.
Liam pulled his self from the memories of the past to the present day, even though the past wasn't so confusing. He had told his mom there was no way that Theo would go. His mom had still tried most the week since it was the only two times they really went to church. Easter and Christmas, sometimes if they weren't working a few other Sundays.
However, it was usually his parents first work day of the week. Theo had kept telling her he was sorry, but he couldn't do it. He hadn't missed the one part though he'd heard the day before. It had been the end of the conversation he'd walked in on. Theo had walked out before he could ask him what he'd meant by he only believed in one thing.
The year before it hadn't been a problem since both his parents had been stuck working. They had also been dealing with a witch that was not so friendly. She had turned Theo into a five year old. That had been the worse week of his life because he had a five year old Theo screaming at him all the time. The worse part was that Theo hadn't remembered anything of the dread doctors since they hadn't happened yet.
He had forgotten that sometimes kids like to bite and Theo had bit him on multiple occasions. Every time he tried to explain where his family was Theo had plugged his ears doing the 'LA LA LA' thing. He had finally found the witch and pleaded with her to fix Theo. He couldn't take another night of Theo yelling for his sister and it hadn't been because Tara was ripping his heart out. No, he'd been screaming for her to save him from Liam.
Granted, Theo had told him that Tara and he had been close before it had turned bad. He just hadn't expected Theo's memory to be completely lost like it had. The witch hadn't caved though so he had gone to drastic measures. He had gotten Corey to turn them invisible and steal the witch's wand. Yep, the witch had a wand and he had gotten Alec to hold her while he'd forced her to change Theo back. It had been one of the five times he had been beyond glad to see Theo.

Liam sighed thinking about that morning inside the church. Theo hadn't sung or said any of the words, but he hadn't just sat like he was spaced out the whole time. He'd stood up when he was supposed to, but he had left before the rest of them had. He hadn't gone far though; he'd been in the truck waiting. Liam had known Theo wouldn't stay to do the meet and greet. It was why he had warned him when they'd been on the last part of service. He'd heard his mom before he had come up here to change thanking Theo for going. He hadn't listened to their conversation this time because he needed a little time to his self.
Liam changed out of his clothes before putting on his jeans with hole in the knees and his Easter shirt. It was probably stupid for a favorite shirt, but Theo had picked it out a couple of days ago. They'd gone out to get stuff for his mom to prepare for Easter Sunday since the family was coming over. It was a shirt that had a wolf on it wearing bunny ears.
He had laughed because the wolf had looked like Theo when he could shift. Theo could still shift and he did it sometimes on the full moon. They'd play hide and seek for a while before he'd shift back and have sex in the woods. It was always fun trying to find Theo because he came up with the oddest hiding places.
They had seen a Cadbury Bunny commercial the night before going out and the shirt had been hilarious. He'd gotten it after forcing Theo to get the one with the actual bunny. Theo swore he wasn't wearing it except to sleep in. However, Liam had beat Theo's high score on two games telling him he had to wear it. He was hoping he would since he had gone with them that morning. Liam had been smiling for the most part, but he was also frustrated with his boyfriend.
~LT TL~
Liam was tightening his belt when Theo walked into their room. He had hoped he'd have a few more minutes, but now was a better time than any to ask. He still didn't know how to put it, but he was defiantly going to ask. He needed to know what had changed in the matter of a few hours. The conversation had happened before his mom had gone to bed.
"You haven't said anything to me all morning did I do something wrong?" Liam asked because it was true.
He had said morning and been cheery ever since he had gotten up. Theo hadn't spoken to him at all; he hadn't even said he was going with them. He'd walked out the door finding Theo in the truck. He'd tried asking him where his keys were at and he'd shrugged. He had been so frustrated he had almost gone back on his old ways and punched Theo. He hadn't though because he loved his annoying as hell boyfriend. The last punch that he'd thrown at Theo was at the zoo two years back.
"Why would you think you did anything wrong? I just didn't feel like talking even if I wanted to be near you," Theo said taking a set of keys from his pants pocket throwing them at Liam. "You were too pissed off to drive so I took the keys," he said even though he knew he was the one that had gotten Liam angry for not talking to him. He had needed to think and Liam had been beyond hyper when they'd woken up. "I get this way every month and you usually ride it out."
Liam groaned because Theo was right, once a month Theo just didn't talk for one day. Everyone accepted it when he went silent letting it go knowing he'd be fine in a day. It happened on the same day too so it wasn't like it was the spur of moment deal. The first of every month, which was today, but Theo had broken his silence. It usually didn't happen until after midnight on the next morning, but right now he had Theo talking.
~LT TL~
"I was too happy to think of what the day of the month was," Liam said raking his hand through his hair. "I want to know one thing then you can go back to being silent if you want. Just try not to be too silent with the rest of the family around. I know you hate my Aunt Kim, but she really didn't know we were dating," Liam said.
"She shoved me onto the bed telling me she was going to show me a better time than you ever could. I'm sorry, but no one is riding my dick but you and you are never in your life leaving me alone with her again," Theo growled his eyes actually shifting at the memory of Liam's aunt trying to convince him to switch teams.
He wasn't on any damn team; the only guy that did anything for him was Liam. He didn't even know what type of woman he liked. He'd spent most of his life, when he would have been figuring that out, with the Dread Doctors. He always made sure he was with Liam or his parents when the woman was over when they were home. He knew damn well she'd known he was with Liam too because she had said it.
"I'm sorry and I won't leave you alone with her. Just answer me one thing," Liam said before he asked Theo what he'd wanted to since he'd gotten in the truck. "Why if you have said all week you weren't going with us did you go?" he was standing in front of Theo now moving his hand over Theo's toned stomach. He'd gotten his shirt off before they'd started talking which had been slight distraction. "You have said over and over you don't believe so why sit through what you claim is torture?"
"I said I was an atheist, I never said I didn't believe in something," Theo said not really wanting to tell Liam why he'd gone, but he knew Liam wouldn't stop til he told him.
~LT TL~
Liam was a lot like his mom, which they both were like dogs with a bone. If they wanted something they got it and no matter how many times he said no they didn't listen to it. It was how he had ended up living here. He'd told Liam no when he'd offered him the couch or to share his room. He had wanted it, but he'd been feeling like crap that day. He'd told Liam no, but Liam had done one bigger than that.
His mom had shown up with Parrish telling him he had two choices. He could go with her and stay with them or he could sit in the jail cell until he agreed. He couldn't believe that Liam had stooped to that level to make him stay with them. He had thought about refusing just to piss Liam off. However, he couldn't do it to Mrs. Geyer so he'd followed her to their house. Parrish had told him it was the wisest choice. It really had been since he'd gotten Liam as his boyfriend out of the deal. He had also gotten a family again, which had meant more than being part of the pack.
"Then what do you believe in?" Liam asked even more curious now. He knew almost everything about Theo now. At least he thought he had since he had surprised him by this confession.
"Isn't it obvious?" Theo asked and when Liam shook his head he sighed before pulling Liam closer kissing him. He waited until Liam opened his mouth before going after his boyfriend's tongue showing him what he believed in.
