You Left Me Filled With Hate || Casseo (and Joshua Fox)
Theo’s face was caught between being emotionless and blank and sneering as he watched his girlfriend talk to her father. He wanted nothing more than to surge forward again and tear the man apart limb for limb, to absolutely destroy him, but he knew he couldn’t, because he knew he had to let Cassidy handle this one. And then he went to talk back and he growled, taking a step forward but Cassidy was speaking before he could grab the man’s neck, and he backed off. He took a deep breath and continued glaring, his eyes dark and dangerous as he looked over the other man.
When Cassidy was speaking to him, his eyes flickered over to her and he let out a low noise, his gaze still dark as he looked her over. Slowly, he was coming back, and his eyes lightened just a little bit as he blinked hard, grunting and moving to sit over to the couch, his hands going up to tangle through the hair on the back of his head. He let out an exasperated cough and kept his gaze fixed on the ground. “Give… me a moment,” he murmured, his voice thick.
She flinched as he shot her his dark look. There was nothing of the Theo she knew in those eyes, and they were so eerily reminiscent of her own, of Felix, that she felt goosebumps rise on her skin and her breath hitched. "Come back to me, sweetheart," she murmured again, stepping towards the couch and slipping to her knees in front of him. She placed her hands delicately on his knees, taking steadying, calming breaths as she tried to force herself into her own shifted mode, to match him, so that he stopped scaring her so much, and yet... God, she had never been afraid of Theo like this before. There had been that moment months ago, when he had nearly choked her, but this was... worse.
"Please," she whispered, looking up at him with fear filled eyes. She bit her lip, fingers digging into his leg, trying desperately to pull him back to the present. "You're scaring me," she admitted, voice low and more than a little shaken. Everything was... too familiar, too terrifying, too unusual. She had known Theo was more than he seemed but that was... far beyond what she had expected. he was like her. Like them. And that was... terrifying.
