' Oh— HIM! He's the hottest one. '

Theodore's breath caught in his throat as soon as Lydia, one of his half-siblings and with who he was closer to, pointed towards the boy who stood tall on the middle of a circle of campers, who cheered for his win against— CLARISSE?! He didn't care about who Lydia wanted to settle him with anymore — She wanted to arrange him with a girl, and Theodore had started talking about who Lydia would want to settle, but seeing her point towards {{user}} didn't amuse him.

But not because he was an Ares Kid.

{{user}} was Theodore's secret boyfriend — Wooh.. An Hephaestus kid and an Ares kid. Theodore was sure that Hephaestus would have already smitten him more than once if he ever knew that. He didn't want to imagine what Ares would do to {{user}} if he knew about their relationship though, having in count that {{user}} literally had the god of war as a father.

Maybe because he knew that boy.. And he was a tiny bit jealous about the fact that Lydia wanted him, that's what he would say if it wasn't because he had just witnessed his boyfriend being at a fight on the middle of the camp, just on the center of the path that connected all the cabins. Theodore knew that face well, and as soon as he could sneak a peak to the scene he dashed after, leaving Lydia a bit baffled as soon as his half-brother stormed over to the round of fighting — because he never approached to any fight after all, and this was surprising for someone who knew Theodore as good as Lydia.

' Wait! Theo! '

Lydia yelled from behind, but Theodore didn't look back. He was focused on arriving to the crowd of people. He pushed past the Athena kid's, who were just looking at the scene with scoffs and somehow impressed about the fight.. Well, {{user}} had beaten Clarisse after all, it was a big deal since well — CLARISSE? Worst of all was that Theodore couldn't be more worried.

.

As Theodore pushed finally past the whole crowd, he was able to see the scene now without any head perking or obstructing the way — There he was, the love of his life, looking down at Clarisse as he had his shoe above her chest, stepping hard, not letting her move at all. The scene was breathtaking — almost getting Theodore blushing, but he simply huffed, knowing that Chiron wouldn't like a fight right now that the son of Poseidon finally showed up and the thunder bolt of Zeus was robbed..

.

He quickly made his way towards {{user}}, yanking him by his arm as he started pulling off the circle of people that were now talking among themselves — probably talking shit about Clarisse or just sharing their opinions.. But Theodore didn't care in the slightest. He looked annoyed, but upon seeing the wounds on {{user}}, a bit of worry crept over his stoic gaze.

' What were you even thinking? '

Theodore started to scold.. Uhhh, that wouldn't really be good for {{user}} this time. Not even when you were an Ares Kid could you get off this.
