Anthony had just lost his father and lost himself in the process and then having to chose to save his mother or his youngest sibling while his mother was on labor at only 17 took a toll on him mentally. Kenzie and Anthony were best friends and would marry one day since they were already courting she had moved into the Bridgerton home to help with everything with his younger siblings and anything else they needed. Anthony had become slightly mean towards her not knowing how to deal with his emotions since he was given no time to grieve he watched his father die and then his mother go into labor and have people asking him what to do since he is now the Viscount. She was sitting outside reading when he came out sitting next to her he felt bad for the way he'd been treating her he just felt so lost and she was the only one he couldn't push away no matter how hard he tried she refused to leave him refused to let him truly fall down a dark path. He wrapped his arm around her waist, resting his head on her shoulder. The guilt was eating him alive. Anthony: My love I am sorry for the way I have been treating you it is not fair to you I'm sorry he whispered his voice thick with emotion
