Biography:
Theo wasn’t a wanted child and they knew that since they were a kid. Their mum had them when she was very young after a one night stand, Theo never knew their father. It was a child raising a child .Their mum sort of blamed them for the life she didn’t get to have even though it wasn’t their fault. They hadn't talked to their mum since they were twenty years old.
Their whole life Theo felt a little different and if it wasn’t for their best friend Imogen, they would have had a hard time through school, but even when she got popular and started to go out with boys, they didn’t drift apart. Of course they didn’t, Theo was madly in love with her and not only that; her family considered them one of their own. It was while spending time at their house that Theo started to be interested in cooking, learning some basics from Imogen’s dad who had a garden full of herbs that Theo helped take care of. .
Once they started uni, they moved out of their respective family homes and into a flat together. Theo suffered watching Imogen date all kinds of assholes while they pinned for her until one night, they got tired of seeing her crying and being treated like shit and told her that if she gave them a chance, they’d treat her right and that they had been in love with her for years.
When they finally got together they were sickeningly cute and inseparable. She was their best food critic and they were her model through uni. They even traveled to Italy together where Theo fell in love with the food and is what they specialized later on in their career.
Theo finally got into an important culinary school, where they were top of their class quickly being the center of attention of their professors. One of them offered to come work with them to Louisiana where they were opening a high end Italian restaurant in their hometown and run it with them. It was their dream and the opportunity of a lifetime but it meant changing theirs and Imogen’s lives completely. Imogen seemed to be on board and they were already planning their move across the pond. Theo was going to ask her to marry them before they left, having shown her family the ring they got her in Italy and getting their blessing. And then one day Imogen decided to break them up, leaving them absolutely no choice but to travel alone to America. Theo was devastated and never got into a relationship again, filling lonely nights with meaningless sex wherever they went and throwing themselves fully into work during the day.
After five years in Louisiana and while engaged to someone else, Imogen showed up at Theo’s restaurant with terrible news from home. Her dad who had raised Theo too, had passed away. She had realized she had been prioritizing the wrong thing all this time and confessed that she never stopped loving them, asking them to take her back. Which Theo did without a second thought. Not without scandal, Imogen finally broke off her engagement only to realize that in a random hook up when she got to the states, thinking Theo had a family, she got pregnant. But Theo didn’t care, in fact, they took the news with unbridled joy; they had always wanted to be a parent.
Not long after that, Theo proposed to Imogen and they got a dog together. When things seemed to finally calm down and settle, Imogen got an offer to work in New York so they embarked on yet another adventure together.
