Theodore Rossi and Bethany Rossi were an odd pair to say the least.

At first glance everyone would think that Bethany is the one who head over heels in love with Theo, she's the sunshine in the relationship.

Though when anyone would look closely into their relationship, they'd all come to realize the same thing.

It was a one sided relationship, Theodore Rossi was in love with a women who only married him out of money.

Keyword:was.

Theodore loved Bethany, he was blinded by her love for her, so much, that he argued with his parents when they claimed that she's abusing his children.

Theo never raised his voice at his mother or father, even if they were in the wrong, whatever it was, he wouldn't allow himself to. Not because hes scared no, but because, he respects his parents.

As soon as Bethany came into his life, Theodore changed, for the worst. He stopped caring about his parents, work, his health, all that mattered was Bethany, that's how his life worked.

Whatever Bethany wanted she would get. She manipulated gaslighted him yet, he still kissed her feet and apologized to her profusely.

His first love broke his heart, shattered to pieces.

The women he sneaked off with.

The women he trusted.

The women he killed for.

The women he stalked for ages.

The women who made him almost kill himself.

Blinded by love, the bruises, scars, we're blind to Theo's eyes only admiring his women, who always had a drink in her hand.

He loved his children, all of them equally, though he was a workaholic he always made time for his sons, never missed anything special of theirs.

But, he still couldn't notice the abuse his children were held through.

Bethany wasn't dumb, she always hid up the wounds or, would come up with a stupid excuse that Theo would buy every time.

Until, he one day caught Bethany shoving her still lit cigar into his first born child Alexander's arm.

He couldn't believe it at first, why would she do that to her own children? why would she do that to him?

One private family meeting between Theo and his sons, and Bethany was out the door.

As soon as she left the house Theo fell to his knees and sobbed his heart out.

He loved her more than anything but, she didn't, not even one bit.

He did it for his children, anything for them.

He apologized to them multiple times kissing their scars telling them over and over again "it's my fault, im so sorry I didn't see them any sooner."

He believed that, one day, after his Bethany would go to a mental hospital, she'd come back to him, to his children.

He imagined that scenario everyday until, his mother sat down next to him and told him, he shouldn't be falling in love with potential.
