notes: for howlford for Sceo Secret Santa! my gift for sceo secret Santa! late, but I managed to get it out on time. this ended up being... a lot longer than I expected it to be when I decided on a plot but honestly, at this point I probably should have expected that huh? anyway, I hope you, Howlford, and everyone else enjoys!
summary & excerpt:
theo ends up homeless after everything with the ghost hunt and monroe. then he gets hit by a car as a wolf, and the logical place for him to end up is at the clinic. scott takes him home after patching him up and theo just... ends up staying.
