about theodore.
Theodore Becker was born as the oldest child of Alexander and Natalia, high school sweethearts that sort of lucked out and ended up married—but as much as there was definitely love and respect there, their marriage was nowhere near being picture-perfect. The disagreements started when he was five and continued up until the divorce came when Theo was fifteen, which was very expected for him and something he wished would’ve happened sooner, simply because as the oldest of the two Becker children, he saw firsthand that the struggle to keep the relationship alive for the sake of their kids was tiresome on the couple and that’s definitely not something he ever wanted for his parents.
His younger sibling came into their lives a few years prior to the divorce and he couldn’t be more thrilled about having someone to share all of his older-brother knowledge with. It felt like it was his duty to make sure the youngest would be alright when everything happened, to make sure they wouldn’t feel as if the family was falling apart—even if it did for a little while. Theo can be somewhat of a smothering brotherly figure at times but really, he does it out of love.
As a young boy, Theo was very shy but still incredibly kindhearted and empathetic, traits he’d gotten from his mother. It was common to find him with his nose shoved inside a book rather than playing with other kids, and it would take him years to rid himself from that timid nature of his. And, well, that hasn’t completely happened yet. He’s better at speaking his mind rather than lowering his head after years of being a theater kid and then following a career in that path but still, sometimes words come out stuttered and hands shake when he’s nervous. Turns out it’s easier to play someone else on stage.
After the divorce happened, there was never any sort of bad-blood between Alexander and Natalia—it was simply better for the two to part ways. And for a while it was hard for the kids to get used to that new way of doing things, always having to jump from one parent’s place to the other, until their dad decided he’d move out indefinitely to the United States. That was unexpected but there was also the sudden chance to see more of the world and perhaps even more opportunities Theo hadn’t ever considered previously. And while it was way too frightening for him to throw away the plans he had made for his life, with his mom’s encouragement, he decided to move out, too.
Sixteen year old Theo suffered a major culture shock but slowly, he was able to get used to the new country. And in the following years, he was able to fulfill plans he’d only ever dreamed of. School ended and he enrolled himself in the New York University, ready to take his passion for acting to the next level. Performing has just always been the one thing that didn’t make him anxious or filled with dread as the thought of the possibilities for his future. And so, that’s what he wanted to do, something that was obviously supported by both of his parents—and by his father’s new husband too, once he joined the family.
He didn’t return to London, instead settling down in New York so he could pursue his career in the place where things happened. And that’s how he met the man he’d fall head over heels for in the matter of months. He had other partners previously, most of which ended as quick as they started, but this time it felt so different as the two connected almost instantly. And like the hopeless romantic he is, he didn’t hold back with them and it really felt like they were meant to be.
A few years passed, life was seemingly perfect for Theo—he had surprisingly managed to go from struggling artist to a serious actor, participating in various plays as well as Broadway shows, the income being enough for him and his boyfriend to move into a place of their own. And with that came the decision to take things further into his relationship, taking that scary leap and proposing. But, instead of the big teary-eyed yes and a passionate kiss that Theo waited eagerly for while on his knee, came an awkward smile and then a no. Nothing happened according to his plans and he wasn’t ready for that. They ended up breaking things off.
It was heartbreaking for him, clearly. And as much as he didn’t regret anything about the relationship, it felt as if he’d wasted a good chunk of his life. He felt completely lost and that’s what lead to him packing his things up from the home he shared with his now ex-boyfriend and leaving New York for a while, putting his career on pause as he needed to be with family instead. His father welcomed him with arms wide open in Roswell, the hometown of his husband and the place the two have been running a bakery together for a few years now.
Theo took a job as a baker and has been working as that for the two years he’s been in town, to keep his mind occupied as he tries to figure out what’s next for him since he’s not even sure he wants to go back to New York. At least not right now, he’s not ready yet. And it’s nice to be living somewhere calm for the first time in over a decade as opposed to the big city.
