❝I NEED TO STOP WISHING THAT YOU'LL LOVE ME BACK, BECAUSE THERE'S A REASON WHY YOU DON'T LOVE ME ALREADY. AND I GUESS THAT REASON WILL ALWAYS BE HERE.❞
Rosé was irrevocably head over heels for her best friend, Tom Holland. The only problem? He...

Pain was something consumable, meaning you're meant to feel pain and suffer through it. Because no one is built to be immortal, to be so strong that you can withstand any type of pain. It's almost impossible. Because there has to be one type of pain to bring you to your knees, to force you into the dark oblivion of your mind, to drag you to the depths of Hell.
Theo has always been someone who is tough, someone who could take whatever is thrown at him. He's been through it all, near death, kidnap, verbal abuse from his peers, and meeting eye to eye with a demon from the Underworld. He's been through so much, yet he's still alive, he's still standing up straight with a determined glint in his brown eyes.
He thought he was untouchable, that he felt no pain.
Oh how wrong he was.
"- WE NEED APOLLO HURRY UP!"
"- WE'RE LOSING HER!"
"- I'M NOT GETTING A HEARTBEAT!"
". . . please Rey, please don't do this to me . . . "
Reyna is reckless. She was reckless when it came to her words, her actions, and her decisions. She always thought about others, never for once did she ever think about her own well being. And for the first time, looking after someone else other than yourself was a bad thing. Because it almost took away her life, almost ended the war early for herself.
Theo hated how reckless she had gotten, how much she had changed since the war had began. She's stronger both physically and mentally. It wasn't necessarily a bad thing, but he disliked it for many, many reasons. In his eyes Reyna Cohen has always been someone he had to look after, he doesn't need to nor was he told to, but this is his person, his best friend. Maybe he didn't like it because he knew that Reyna would now see herself as independent, that she didn't need to rely on him and that she could take on these dangerous monsters herself. But deep down he knew it was because he didn't want to accept the fact that sooner or later she won't need him anymore.
He remembers everything clearly. It was his fault for getting so distracted, for focusing on the safety of others instead of his own. That was his first mistake.
All of a sudden he heard Rosé shout his name out of despair. He turned around and met the eyes of a Roman demigod Theo wasn't quick enough as he rose his sword into the air, ready to defend himself against the enemy. He knew who this guy was, a former classmate of his who has always despised Theo and picked on him for no reason. But the curly haired boy couldn't believe that the guy would go as far as to kill him.
