A/n Pool, hotel and "We're more than FWB" A/U all mixed together.

"Thank you Theo! You've got my Instagram right?"

"Yeah Chloe, thanks, bye Stacey!" He manically waves at her kid sister, while Chloe does a call sign at him. "You're so awesome with kids! See you later!"

"Sure!" He makes sure both of them, and everyone is out of the pool before he texts his friend with benefits. "Last Brat is gone, get down here!"

His "FWB" works on the ninth floor, so Theo changes his shirt, replaces his gum and sprays himself before he shows up. He growls as Mason walks in smelling amazing as usual. The human is dressed in grey khaki shorts with a matching hoodie. Hey...that hoodie looks familar, it's probably his. Before he can greet him, Theo scoops him up and slowly walks him towards the pool.

"Hey Eager beaver, I can't!"

"Yeah right!"

"No seriously, I actually came to tell you I can't right now, or tonight...or this week" Mason says lightly pawing at Theo's firm chest. The lifeguard smells that he's telling the truth, before walking to the edge of the pool and gently throwing him in. He takes his trainers off and sits on the edge of the pool as Mason calls him every curse word under the sun, and the moon.

"You bastard!"

"You know I'm an ass-hole. You could have just told me by text!"

"I wanted to see you. Thought we could get coffee, but you can shove that offer up your ass!" Mason yells as he swims towards the ledge and hoists himself up next to the chimera.

"Coffee? We're fuck buddies. I don't do..."

"I know, but believe it or not, you give great straight to the point advice. I just needed some...can you uhhh...pass me a towel?" He asks him.

"Get it yourself, they're over there"

"Prick!" Mason hisses. Getting up, steading himself and walking over to the towel rack. By the time he's rubbing a green towel over his face, he feels a bigger one wrapped around his shoulder.

"Advice for what?" Theo asks,

"Like you give a fuck!" He reassures him.

"I'm listening"

"You know Thee, you could just apologize"

"Listening is all you get"

"Whatever!" Mason snorts water out of his nose while drying the back of his ears. "Brett finally asked me out!"

"Brett Talbot?"

"Yes"

"You mean, the son of the owner of this hotel we work at, and your basic beta crush?" Theo laughs.

"He's anything but basic, he's the hottest thing since sticky toffee donuts! You always know how to play it cool, but since you're being such a mashosive dick..."

"Which you've never had a problem with before..."

"So any advice before I go up to change...again"

"Everyone says don't be yourself, but...be someone totally different Mase. You're boring and chatty as hell. No-one gives a fuck about the top zombie films of all time. Brett could care less about that new photography class that you're doing. And Oh, everyone's pretty much supernatural Mase, so don't bother dragging Brett to the library and impressing him with Bestiary shit. He'll claw his own eyes out"

"Right, so get a whole new identity, check!"

"You're such a fucking nerd okay? Hot guys don't date nerds!"

"But you'll fuck us in pools right?" Mason jerks his head towards the pool.

"Well, I only fuck the special ones" Theo raises his eyebrows as he encases Mason in the towel and pulls him in for a kiss. Surprisingly Mason accepts, maybe he's a tease. Maybe it's from nervousness. As their lips mesh and Theo's hand is cupped around his waist, he knows. Theo can feel how much he likes Brett. And it's a ferocious feeling. A feeling that Mason's never shown towards him, and it grates at his chest.

He can taste the exictment and ketchup, as their tongues collide. Brett is just as arrogant and selfish as he was, maybe more because he was rich. Theo could stand there with Mason in his arms and question his motives all day. Were Brett's money and looks enough? Lost in thought he can't feel the human pull away.

"Thanks, wish me luck!" Mason said, keeping both towels as he walked out of the pool room.

Sure he could have minded his own business. Let Mason go alone on this date and fuck it up by himself. But before he knew it he was calling his partner in crime.

"You can put the cameras back on, nothing fucking happened!"

"I know, a little kissing and some towel rubbing! So Brett popped the question? I guess Chloe's gonna take Masie's place huh?" He asks, clearly eating something.

"Stiles! Next time, turn ALL the camera's off you freak! Second, Brett may be the fucking boss' rich kid, but I don't trust him"

"It's not your problem anymore"

"Still, if shit goes down Mase can't take care of himself. He's human for fuck sake!"

Awkward coughing echos down the line.

"No offence, he's not like you. If some crazy supernatural comes out to play, he's fucked"

"That's what he's got friends for, I'm sure that..."

"Stiles, can we can do Star wars commentary some other time?"

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...WHAAAAAAAAAAAAT!"

"I can't focus. Brett could be an aggressive control freak asshole!"

"Dude relax, There's only one Theo Raeken"...Stiles chuckles at the long pause. "Okay...since you need my specialist detective skills so badly. We'll spy on Masie's first date with this Talbot hottie!"

"It's just one time, now can you hurry up turn all the camera's on, before Danny loses his shit!" Theo warns as he ends the call.
