   the rag did large broad swipes along the counter, theo trying to quickly clean up the front of the store so that he could leave sooner. the chairs were already up and the ice cream cartons tucked away into the back freezer. the lights were off and within five minutes, the man was jumping over the front counter to go running out the front door, shouting to his manager to have a good night. he continued jogging down the street, having to park a few blocks away from the store due to a lack of spots. while jogging he notices a shadowy figure out of the corner of his eye, slowing down and keeping his eyes on the person as he comes to a stop. “ hey, do you need some help? “

Benji couldn’t remember the last time he had a relationship that lasted more than a month, this felt like he was in uncharted territory but he was trying his best. So while he had been hanging out at the mall he’d seen some kids and remembered that Theo had younger siblings. Rather than look for something for him he wandered around the mall until eventually he was walking out with a Captain America action figure and a makeup palette by Rihanna. By the time Theo showed up at his apartment the bags were sitting on his coffee table waiting for him. “Those are for you,” he said pointing towards the bags on the table. “Don’t forget to take them home with you when you leave.”

     theo had gotten a text from benji asking if he could meet at the apartment before they went out for the movies later, it wasn’t that weird theo would never turn down a chance to sneak in a solo make out sesh in benji’s car before they grabbed aj. he slipped into the apartment, raising an eyebrow at the bag before going over to peak inside of it. “ benj, you shouldn’t have. i mean, i can pay you back for them. “

       “and so i had to let the bitch know, that if you’re going to come for my overpass plans don’t show up with a freshman level library layout that isn’t even designed to withstand a magnitude five earthquake.” she huffed, walking back out to the living room where she left theo sitting on the couch with a hot cloth steaming his face. straddling his hips, she pulled the cloth from his face. “now a mask,” she announces, waving a medium sized pot and clean makeup brush in his face. “you would just think that she would want to support me when there are only four women in that class. if we have the technology to both cool the overall temperature by four degrees and collect solar energy why wouldn’t we?!” applying the clay mask from the back of her hand, she huffs, again, directly in his face. “sorry, i just had to get that off my chest. it was ridiculous. how was your shift last night and what did you do today? tell me everything.”

theo swore he was listening, his eyes were just closed and he couldn’t really talk with the cloth over his face, anyway. he could feel himself sinking back into the cushions, letting himself have a few minutes to relax- the little ones were both doing a sleepover at friends and he finally had a whole weekend to himself- well, to himself and the two others that each had a half of his heart. once the cloth was slipped off his face, he slid an arm around aj’s waist, stealing a kiss before she started to place the mask across his face. “ she’s jealous of your brain and talent, aj. we both know you’re the smartest kid in that class by six yards and they’re all threatened by it. “ theo laughs at the tickle her huff spread across his face. “ it’s okay, i’m like ninety percent ears. “ he groaned, trying not to move his face too much. “ work was the same but when i got home, my mom was awake and trying to cook in the kitchen, she broke a glass and it woke jenny up. jenny was off this morning on the way to school, i know it got to her to see mom like that. “

Brittany was getting out all the boxes with the Halloween decorations out of storage so she could start decorating the bar. She knew it was early but there was something about the holidays that made her go the extra mile. As she held onto one of the boxes she looked around for someone else to help since she didn’t want to make a second trip. “Hey, babes, could you grab the other one for me? I’ll give you a drink on the house.“ The girl mused. 

      theo glanced up from his notebook, rounding the table to help carry a box of decorations out to the center of the bar. “ i’ll save the drink for the rainy day but what is all of this for? “

               “ shit, shit, shit ! — ” noon was just about to strike the clock which only meant one thing: she was late. for the third time this week. lacey was thankful her class was full of students & her teacher likely didn’t realize she was missing. by now, the blonde was running ; books in hand. in the brief moment lacey looked down at her booklet – more specifically, at her class schedule –, her face was met with body of another. her notebooks scattered on the ground. “ fuck. ” she whispered. lacey even rushed while she spoke. “ I’m so sorry, I wasn’t looking where I was going .. ”

      theo stumbled back as some girl who was smaller than aj slammed into his chest, instinctively dropping his books to grab her arms and hold them both steady. it took a few moments to realize the girl was talking, shaking his head to come back down to earth. “ what? oh, no it’s totally my fault. my girlfriend says i have a bad habit of never looking where i’m going. “ he crouched down to help her pick up the notebooks. “ i hope i’m not making you late. “

 — What’s that figure? Oh, it’s just THEO ROWLINS. HE is a TWENTY ONE year old STUDENT who is a CIS MALE and lives in Levins. You know, I think in a horror movie HE would be THE LOVABLE JOCK. They’d hate for The Director to find out THEIR DAD WALKED OUT ON THEM A MONTH AGO.

growing up, theo was the kid who always was going to some kind of practice or game. he did little league, cub scouts, swim lessons at the y, if there was some wholesome after school activity that was gendered by society for boys- he was at it. in elementary school, his mom was president of the pta, constantly volunteering and bake saleing it up. his parents went on date nights with other parents constantly, they had huge parties for the class on theo’s birthday. his childhood was a fucking norman rockwell painting. 

or at least that’s what it looked like on the outside, the painting doesn’t show the affairs theo’s dad had for six years, with secretaries, coworkers, clients, other moms. it doesn’t show how theo’s mom pretended like everything wasn’t cracking under their feet, keeping a clean house, raising three kids, and trying to make her husband happy. 

theo didn’t find out about that till high school, when his dad started sleeping on the couch and his mother could be heard crying in the bedroom. he pretended he couldn’t hear it. slowly started making sure his younger siblings got to school on time & did their homework because dad hadn’t been home in two days & mom was passed out upstairs with three glasses of wine in her stomach. 

he went to community college classes, picking up a job as a cashier to support himself through it. his parens hadn’t even mentioned college to him at that point, he wants to go to a state school- get a degree in social work. but, he’s struggling to pay for it. 

honestly, this past year has been hell for him, his mom barely gets out of bed anymore and his dad became a ghost. the only good thing that’s happened to him was meeting aj & benji. 

he met aj at the ice cream store he was a cashier at, she came up and demanded a mint ice cream double scoop with rainbow sprinkles. after he handed it to her, she grabbed his hand and scribbled on it ‘ you have something stuck in your teeth ‘ and her number. he was smitten. they hung out a few times, maybe fooled around as well before they both ended up at a party where they met benji. 

at first, theo was worried that aj would be mad he called the dj hot but instead she agreed and they devised a scheme to convince him to sleep with them both. it worked and surprisingly, he was good at it and he made them breakfast in the morning. it kept happening, hanging out the three of them, sleeping together, soon it morphed into dates with benji in the middle holding the popcorn or aj pushing theo over in his roller skates. 

three months into them seeing each other, his dad walked out for good and now theo had to start helping pay for everything around the house. he picked up a second job- a go go dancer at some club benji had a connection at, three nights a week, and cashier still the other four nights. he’s slowly coming undone under all the pressue.
