Theo was shaking.
He sat there on the toilet as he checked the little blue stick in his trembling hands.
He wanted to cry.
He couldn't stop looking at the "pregnant" sign on the pregnancy test.
He jumped sharply when he heard someone knock on the bathroom door.
"Theo dear, are you okay?" he heard Jenna's soft, concerned voice, only making him feel worse.
Liam's parents had welcomed him with open arms despite knowing everything he had done in the past, how could he do this to them after the kindness they had shown him?
“Y-yes Jenna, I'm f-fine,” he managed to sob back as he wiped his tears with the sleeve of his shirt.
"I don't believe you, honey," the woman said, walking into the bathroom.
Jenna looked at her son's boy, the boy she had come to love as if he were her son himself, and knelt before him.
She took his shaking hand and glanced at the positive pregnancy test in his hands.
"Is that what I think?" she asked hesitantly.
Theo nodded, not daring to look at her face.
"I should be amazed but...I guess this supernatural will never cease to amaze me" she said softly stroking the back of his hand "Does Liam know?"
Theo shook his head.
"I'm sorry..." he whispered "You welcomed me here and treated me like a son and I...I'm really sorry, I didn't want to"
Jenna smiled tenderly and shook his hands.
"You don't have to apologize for anything, of course...I'm a bit angry like any mum would be for not having taken the right precautions, you and Liam are quite young" she said "But just because you are young, I know that everything you should think about is having fun, and you sure did,” she said with a wink.
The chimera blushed slightly and he finally looked up at her, his eyes wet with tears.
"So…you're not mad at me for being pregnant? You're not going to kick me out?" he asked hesitantly.
"What?! Of course not! I won't and Liam…you didn't think he'd let you go once he found out?" the woman asked.
Theo gave her a guilty look, which only made her smile.
She ruffled his hair.
"Theo, here in this house we all love you and would never let you leave for something like that, we are a family"
All Theo could do was wrap his arms around Jenna's neck and burst into tears in her arms.
Jenna stroked his back and let him vent.
"Thank you, Jenna..." he whispered through his tears "You are the mom I never had"
Theo didn't remember how his mother was, she died when he couldn't even speak, but whenever he was with Jenna, Theo felt at home, she was the mom he needed.

When Liam and David got home, they were amazed to find Theo and Jenna on the sofa, embracing each other.
Theo was asleep, while Jenna stroked his hair.
"Good evening," David said confused, but still with a smile on his face.
"Welcome back, guys" the blonde said, turning to them and gesturing for them to lower their voices so as not to wake the sleeping chimera.
Liam smiled as he approached the two and took his boyfriend in his arms.
"I'm taking him to bed" he whispered "Goodnight"
He walked up the stairs, carrying Theo upstairs to their bedroom.
He saw his boyfriend wrinkle his nose and open his eyes.
“Liam…” he said sleepily.
"Sleep, babe," he said stroking his cheek.
“I have to tell you something…” he whispered yawning.
"You'll tell me tomorrow" he said placing him on the bed "Now sleep"
Theo nodded.
"Goodnight, Liam"
"Goodnight, Theo"
