I Own Nothing
AN: I got this idea while watching Season 6a episode when Mr. Douglas stabbed his claws into Theo's back. I thought about him not breaking the barrier at first and it went deeper with a past with Theo, Liam and Hayden.
AN2: This is the story that inspired Not Asking, but that story went in different direction as some have read.
Title: You Still Care
Characters: Liam/Theo
Summary: When Theo gets hurt by Mr. Douglas while he tries not to destroy the barrier he realizes that Liam still cares about him.
Liam looked up at the night sky seeing the stars and clear skies for the first time in a long while. The Wild Hunt had left the night before and they had gotten their friends back. He had helped being a distraction so the ghost riders didn't go after Scott, Lydia and Malia. They had taken Mason and Hayden before they even got out of the station. He'd gotten Scott the information about Mr. Douglas before going back to the station with Stilinski.
He had been glad when Theo had been freed from the cell. He had been so scared that Theo would have been taken by the ghost riders before he got back. He had heard Theo yelling at them when Hayden and he had been fighting them. He had said something in that moment in a low voice before he'd left the station.
He'd known that Theo could hear him and he'd looked at him for a moment. He had told him he'd be back and he loved him. It had been on instinct because he did love Theo. He didn't want him to be taken or Hayden either. Hayden had sacrificed herself for Liam to get away. He had seen how Theo had tried to get out of the cell, but the bars weren't as given for him.
It hadn't been easy after that, but they'd fought together. It had felt good when they had taken on the ghost riders making sure they didn't go after Scott. They had worked as a team killing some of them, locking one up in a room. He had shot one that tried to choke Theo, possibly kill him. He had thought he'd lost Theo when he'd thrown him in the elevator Theo becoming bait. It had given him time to get free of the hospital and find Scott. Theo had sacrificed his self he'd thought for him.
He'd found him later at the high school though once again saving him. He had wanted to kiss Theo so badly when he'd seen him. However, he'd been holding off the ghost rider for him to get to the horse. He had heard Theo though when he had asked if he knew how to ride a horse. He'd heard Theo tell him he loved him too. It had been so low he had almost missed it before he'd ridden off.
He had found out that Theo had helped Scott and the others fight Mr. Douglas and the ghost riders. He had been trying to help save Corey with Hayden and Mason. They'd needed to give Scott time to divert the train from taking everyone. He had felt so bad for Corey what Mr. Douglas had done to him. He couldn't image the pain that Corey had been in. The way he screamed in pain had gotten to him.
He had taken Corey's other hand and started drawing his pain away. He'd done it because he cared about Corey. He was his best friend's boyfriend and it was his way of showing that he really did trust Corey now. He'd apologized before, but he had wanted to do something too. It meant more if he did it than saying it.

It had been twenty-four hours since then and he had slept for over fifteen of them. He'd been exhausted from everything that happened. He had gone home not even bothering to shower just flopping on his bed. He had woken up alone, but he hadn't been that way the whole time. He had caught Theo's scent in his bed. He knew that the Chimera had at some point laid with him. He wished he could have felt it, but he'd been dead to the world he'd slept through those hours. He hadn't even felt it when he'd been rolled on his side, which was how he'd woken up.
They had talked a little when they'd been in the morgue together before the ghost riders had found them. It was where he had found out why Theo hated the hospital morgue so much. He felt bad for going there, but he'd thought it would work. It hadn't, but at least they were both alive. He had wanted to hug Theo when he told him some about hell while they'd waited. He couldn't image what he felt getting to the point he just let Tara pull his heart out without moving from the drawer.
He just wished he knew where Theo was at right now. The truck had been gone when he'd woken up. He was hoping that Theo wasn't leaving because he'd already been told goodbye by Hayden. It had hurt so much having to say goodbye to her because he loved her. It might seem stupid to someone, but he loved them both. They had gotten so deep into his heart that he had been hurt so much when they had both been ripped away the first time.
Right now he felt that pain again. Hayden leaving for good and Theo possibly gone too. He had spent one of those hours just crying because he couldn't even breathe it hurt so much. It was the only thing he could think to do that might give him some comfort. It hadn't though because his bed smelt like Hayden and Theo both like it had before. He missed them so much that it hurt his soul. He couldn't have Hayden back, she was gone. However, he could possibly have Theo back if he didn't chicken out and leave him too.
~LT TL~
Liam hadn't meant to fall asleep he really should have slept enough already. However, when he opened his eyes there was a black wolf standing next time him. "Fucking hell, Theo I swear I'm seriously going to put a bell on you," he growled before sitting up. "First you leave without letting me know you were there. Now you show up in your wolf form after everything in the last three days?" He asked standing up looking down at the wolf. He had missed the wolf just as much as he'd missed Theo. It was Theo of course, but he'd always seemed freer when he was the wolf.
The wolf closed its eyes bowing its head to Liam before it started transforming back into it's human form. "It was faster to find you since you weren't answering your phone," Theo said standing up to his full height.
"My phone is in my room charging, it was dead cause I forgot to charge it when I fell asleep," Liam said making his self look at Theo's face and not else where like he wanted to. "You really need to learn to carry something with clothes in it. That way you can put them on after you shift back," he said throwing Theo a bag once he got to his Bronco.
He had hoped he might find him out here. He had a feeling Theo would be up to his old trick of shifting. He knew that Theo liked doing it along with running through the woods completely naked at night. He had done it his self by accident once, a few other times on purpose. Those times the pack knew nothing about since he'd been with Theo. They had run through the woods together before having sex where ever they ended up.
It had felt so good to be inside of Theo. He had never seen it as anything but fun and enjoyable running through woods. He'd felt completely consumed and free in those moments. They'd playfully battled for top position over each other, but he won. A time or two Hayden had been there too. She had tackled them both making them lie there while she'd kept them on the edge for a while. She hadn't shown them mercy at all when it came to how long they had to wait.
Once she had deemed them aloud to touch her they had taken her. Both their cocks filling her as the three of them finally joined as one in a way. It had felt unbelievable having his cock against Theo's while they had taken Hayden. They had cum together spilling into her while sharing a sloppy and awkward three way kiss. In those moments he would never had guessed how bad it would go just weeks later. How fast loving someone so much it was a first thought could turn to hating them so deeply.
He had hated Theo so much that even after Scott and Mason told him to stay out of it, he hadn't. He had found Theo after school one day and he'd punched him. He hadn't stopped though he had punched him over and over until his hand had hurt. He'd taken his anger out on the guy he had loved so much. He still remembered Hayden pulling him away as he viciously kicked Theo until his ribs had broken. He knew she'd done it to save him, not Theo from the guilt if he'd killed him. He had wanted to do to him what he'd done to Scott and them.
Theo hadn't fought him back though; he'd just fucking laid there while he'd taken his heartache out on him. He hadn't even smiled though like he'd done that time in the hall when he'd been standing with Hayden or at the club with Josh. He'd just lay on the ground bloody and broken after what he'd done. He'd seen the blood Theo had puked out and he hadn't even cared if he'd died. He had been glad that he had inflicted some pain on the bastard that ripped his heart out.
He still remembered for a split second he'd seen sadness in Theo's eyes. He'd let out a roar kicking him as hard as he could in his privates. Hayden had taken him home and they'd just lain together after she'd cleaned the blood away from his hands. They had both lost the person they'd thought loved them and Hayden had lost her life before that. They'd grieved for those things that night just lying together alone not having Theo with them. It was the first time they hadn't had him between them.
~LT TL~
Theo put the pants on throwing the bag back to Liam. "The last two days and nights we've saved each other. The ghost riders are gone, everybody's back that was taken. The only thing that's left is to know if there's anything left between us." he asked hoping that he had some chance to fix what he had done. He hadn't known what to do after the ghost riders had left. He'd thought about leaving getting away even though he wanted to fix what he'd done to Liam. He had felt so much pain from Liam when he'd confessed what he wanted to do to him.
"The first time I trusted you everything I cared about got ripped away. You were one of those things that I cared about," Liam said leaning against the Bronco so he had something to keep him from moving. "I trusted you again last night and everything felt right again. I saw the guy I remembered fighting beside me. He was helping save all of us because he grew a conscious in hell," Liam gave up his hold on the Bronco moving so he was in front of Theo. "He wasn't a tin man anymore because he finally tapped into his heart," he placed his hand over Theo's chest where his heart was at feeling it beating.
Theo looked at Liam not finding the cloud of emotions going through Liam's eyes. He felt the warmth from Liam's hand even through his shirt. "I promise you I won't break it again. I don't want to be the reason you're broken and feel like you're dying. I don't want you to ever know the feeling of dying," he knew that they'd all die one day, but he would do anything to protect Liam from having it happen now. It was why he had shoved him in the elevator. It was the only thing he could think of to do to save Liam.
The day that Liam had beaten the hell out of him he'd just let him. He had let Liam take his anger out on him because even after what he'd done to him. He hadn't wanted Liam to take the rage out on an innocent person. He hadn't understood why he'd done it, cared if an innocent got hurt. He hadn't cared about that when he'd sicked Liam on Scott, but he had then. He'd felt the need to destroy coming from Liam.
He could have avoided him, but he'd given Liam what he'd needed. He'd let him punch him and kick him until Hayden had pulled him away. He'd just laid there taking it because he had deserved what Liam had done. It was why he hadn't fought Liam back since he could have easily. It hadn't made him grow a heart then; he hadn't done that until he'd been forced into a sentence of thirty-five years of hell. He had felt something lying there before Liam had kicked him the last time. He couldn't place what he'd felt in that moment then, but it only mattered about now.
"I don't feel broken anymore, it doesn't hurt to breathe. I know you won't break the promise to me not after you risked your own life saving mine," Liam said, "I'd rather you keep living with me. It's going to take some time to get their trust back even if you did help. You already got more than that with me," he added feeling and hearing Theo's heart beating like crazy.
~LT TL~
Liam couldn't wait any longer; he was done talking about it. He closed the last few inches between them kissing Theo. He wanted to feel what he'd been missing for so long. He wanted to be consumed by everything that had made him love Theo so much before. He brought his hand to the back of Theo's head crashing their mouths together. He moaned at the feeling before he heard Theo do the same. He slid his tongue into Theo's mouth deepening the kiss.
Liam turned them walking them backwards as they continued kissing until he had Theo's back against his Bronco. He let his hands move all over Theo's naked torso. He needed to touch him and he felt Theo's hands moving down to his waist. He made fast work of the pants that he had made Theo put on. He didn't rip them, but he got them down fast. He shoved his own pants down after jerking his shirt off.
"Need you so fucking much," Liam said moving his hand around both their cocks. "Hurts so bad, I need you back," he moaned as he started moving his hand up and down their cocks.
"Fuck," Theo let his head fall back against Liam's Bronco turning it to the side. He bared his throat to Liam wanting him to take what he wanted.
He moaned bucking into Liam's hand as he continued jacking them off. The pre-cum sliding over their cocks making it hurt less each time as he brought them closer to release. It felt right having Liam against him again, he'd been alone for so long. He had listened to his sister taunt him about it too.
The ache in his soul had been worse than Tara ripping his heart out. He'd been stupid for what he'd done that one night. He hadn't known what he was doing, he'd just bit Liam. He'd felt his wolf screaming for him to do it that night and he had given in. Liam had fucked him until they had both cum biting into each other instead of howling.
He had never thought anything else of it, but he'd felt the feeling of being empty. He'd tried gaining power to fix the void, tried taking everything besides what he was now. He hadn't felt his heart back then, but it was obvious his wolf had known even back then. His wolf had known what he'd found in Liam, but it had been too late then.
~LT TL~
Liam growled bringing Theo back to the present feeling the pit in his stomach right before he would usually cum. Liam covered Theo's mouth again quickening his hand adding a twist with each down stroke. Liam pulled free of the kiss twisting the best he could one more time before they both came. Liam felt his fangs descending as he erupted between them his cum mixing with Theo's over their bodies. He didn't' hesitate gripping the back of Theo's head letting his fangs sliced into Theo's neck. It almost hurt it felt as good as he pulled a slight amount of blood from the bite there.
Theo shut his eyes tight his hands tightening around Liam's ass pulling him as close as he could get him. "I need you too," he said feeling how badly he'd hurt Liam as the bond they'd supposed to have had before finished forming. What he'd seen and smelt on Liam didn't even cover it. He didn't even know how Liam could forgive him this easy, but if he thought it wasn't so easy. He'd had to be sentenced to hell to repent for what he'd done. He'd spent almost forty years without the one he belonged to.
Liam pulled his fangs back licking the blood from Theo's neck. Brett had told him what had happened the night Theo bit him. He'd also told him he could share through the bite what he felt or make a person see. It only worked for mates that way, but he'd done it just now. He hadn't meant to share the memories, but he hadn't stopped them.
"That is the only time you get to cum until we're in my bed and I'm inside of you," Liam said letting his hand go up to Theo's face wiping way the tears that were there. "I didn't mean to show you that, but its how I've felt for so long. Hayden didn't even know that truth," Liam said before kissing Theo slower this time. It wasn't as bad of a hunger behind it that he felt like he was going lose his mind. It was still hunger there though and he felt it coming from Theo too.
"I didn't know until I was in hell what I'd done that night," Theo said once they broke apart for air. "I tried doing everything to fill the ache before I got sent there. I didn't understand why I hurt so badly, but it wasn't actually my pain. It was what you were feeling the whole time," he finished looking into Liam's eyes hoping he would never break him again.
"I didn't know either," Liam said giving him a smile before kissing Theo again needing to be close to him. He didn't stop until his lungs demanded air. "Come on, we're going to my house," Liam said fixing his pants and grabbing his shirt. His smile grew even more as he squatted down cleaning the cum from Theo's torso first. "Damn it's still good too," Liam said standing back up going to the driver side of the Bronco.
~LT TL~
Theo groaned pulling his pants up after Liam left him standing there. He grabbed the shirt from the bag in case putting it on. "Just don't crash," he said when he got in the passenger seat. He wanted to get to Liam's in one piece.
"You were giving me a blow job while I was driving and Hayden was blowing you. You are not going to blame me for almost going into the ditch. You sank your fangs into the head of my cock when you came in her mouth. It was one the best orgasms from a blow job I've had," Liam confessed before he started laughing.
"What's so funny?" Theo asked as Liam started driving out of the woods.
"It's not as funny as it seems. It's just you tried gaining power to fill the void you didn't understand. I beat the hell out of you that night when I first felt it. I tried using Hayden to make it go away too. I just wish it hadn't taken so long to feel this way again," Liam said reaching over taking Theo's hand.
"We weren't meant to work then, but I've spent over thirty years wanting what I never knew I had back." Theo said looking over at Liam. He didn't know if he got to feel happy right now, but that's what he was feeling. He was happy to have Liam back and that he was the one that pulled him from hell. It was in a way ironic since he'd wanted to see Liam at least once more to tell him he was sorry. When he'd gotten freed and Liam was standing there he'd promised to kill him. "I'm sorry for the other night," he added wanting Liam to know he never had meant to threaten him.
"I know," Liam said with a smile.
