Theo lives at home with his father, after his mother walked out on the family five years previous to the present day events, due to the domestic abuse she suffered at the hands of Theo's father.

Now that Theo's mother has left the family, Theo has become the victim of his father's mood swings and outbursts of verbal and physical abuse.

Theo spends as much time out of the house as he can, which means he suffers peculiar sleeping patterns and finds himself walking around outside during the early hours of the morning, anything to distant himself from his father.

He attends a local college after receiving pass C grades in his GCSE's, excluding English, in which he achieved a B, and Music which is his speciality, an A. He is studying Music Tech at the college and finds himself a 'family' set up with three local boys also on the same course who have formed a band and have expressed an interest in Theo joining also.
