>"Whats going on in here" Chief Bennett said pulling
>Ethan off the other guy. Ethan, Ivy and Julian were
>surprised to see that it was Nicholas Foxworth Crane.
>"Fox what are you doing here?" Ivy said not really
>caring why he was here. "Why mother I thought you and

>to stay at all. "Yes mother dear." Fox said looking at
>Theresa. She was the most beautiful thing he'd every

>goergous. "I'll see you tomorrow step-mommy"Fox said
>while leaving Theresa's room. "Count on it." Theresa
>whispered as he lefted Now that everyone was gone
>Theresa ot back into bed, only this time she wasn't

>Chapter 2 He Walks Among Me

>Fox woke up at 2:36am. With only one thing on his mind
>Theresa. Ever since early that night when he first saw
>Theresa he knew that they'd be seeing alot more of
>each other. He hadn't imagened she'd be so beautiful.
>He'd seen pictures of her in magazines and newspapers
>but the picture reaslly didn't do her any justice. He
>must have been dreaming of her because he was in a
>cold sweat. He knew what he had to do, take a cold
>shower. He tryed to find the light switch but
>couldn't, he wasn't used to sleeping in the guest
>room. He'd rather be sleeping in hes room. Theresa was
>sleeping in his room though.
>
>"God no matter what I'm thinking about it always leads
>back to Theresa. Nows a great time for that shower."
>he said to himself.
>
>He finally found the light, and he was greatful to. If
>he tripped or stubbed his toe on anything eles he was
>going to be pissed. He got in the shower only for a
>little while though cause he was really tired with
>everything that had happened tonight. There she was
>again. Thinking about her AGAIN. He got out of the
>shower put on night clothes and got back into bed.
>
>He tired to go to sleep but couldn't. He got out of
>bed and made hes way to the door. He was going to go
>downstair and get something to drink. When he heard
>something that sounded like it was coming out if
>Theresa's room. He went to her door and knocked on it,
>but she didn't answer. He turned the nob and went in.
>To his surprise it was little Ethan who was making the
>noise. He was standing in his crib crying. Fox looked
>over at Theresa she was sound asleep. Not wanting
>little Ethan to wake up his mother he went over and
>picked him up. As soon as he did little Ethan stoped
>crying. He was now smiling at Fox.
>
>"You are just the cutest thing I've ever seen.'' he
>said playing with little Ethan "You don't know me but
>I'm your step-brother Fox. You are the luckest baby in
>the world you know that? Yes you are. You have the
>best mommy in the world. And now I'm here to be a real
>big brother. I'll teach you how to play tennis and
>soccer. Yeah but thats when your older."
>
>When Fox looked down little Ethan was asleep in his
>arms. He was so cute. Fox put him in his crib. He
>walked toward the door and whispered "Sleep well
>Theresa"
>
>Only he didn't know that she wasn't asleep. She hadn't
>been since he came in. She had heard everything he
>said to little Ethan. As he walked out and closed the

>
>Fox walked behind her. He didn't know what had

>be pissed at him for something. I heard you and him
>were engaged, and what now you hate him!"
>
>So Theresa told Fox about everything thats happened in
>the last three years. Everything about how Ethan had
>been engaged to Gwen then her. Then he was engaged to
>her and then he strung them both along. "So now hes
>married to Gwen and their expecting a child" she said
>with tears in her eyes. She dryed her eyes and smiled
>at Fox.
>
>"I'm mad at him because he tells me that we have no
>future together that I should move on. But everytime I
>do hes always questions me about where I'm going and
>who I'm going out with. It just makes me so mad."
>"Well Theresa you deserve better then him. Your smart,
>beautiful, witful, and a wounderful mother. You need
>someone who can except you, all of you. The good and
>the bad." Fox said "Thanks Fox. I really needed that.
>Your a real friend."

>After they finished their lunch they left the Book
>Cafe'. They drove around and talked a couple of hours.
>When they got back to the mansion it was 7:37

>They talked about how Ethan had hurt her. Fox was on
>Theresa's side when other people weren't.

>she could fell this way so soon after Ethan broke up
>with her. But she did.
>
>Still kissing they shut Theresa's bedroom door. He
>knew when he first meet her that he was attracted to
>her but he never thought that he could feel like this.
>He was in 'love' with Theresa Lopze- Fitzgerald.
>Everything about her made him feel funny. This was
>love.

>Both breaking the kiss to breath . Theresa looked into
>Fox's eyes and all she seen was love, caring and fear.
>"Theresa I'm sorry its just after today I just'' thats

>mouth "Fox I don't want to just be your friend."
>Theresa said before she knew it. ''I want to be with

>
>Right then Fox grabbed her and kissed her more
>passionately. Before you knew it she was laying on the
>bed with Fox on top of her. Kissing her. She was

>Chapter 5 The Morning After

>Theresa woke up with the sun in her eyes, but she
>didn't care. Fox's arms were rapped around her. She
>hadn't been this happy in a long time. She looked at
>Fox and laughed. His hair was messed up. 'Hes so cute
>when hes sleeping' she thought. Fox woke up. "What?"
>he said with a grin. "Nothing you just look really
>cute when you sleep" she said giggling. "Really alot
>of people say that?!" "Oh really" Theresa said
>laughing she playfully hit him with her pillow. "Yeah"
>he said leaning in to kiss her. She rapped her arms
>around his neck and kissed him back. She loved the way
>his hands fit around her. She loved everything about
>him. 'Oh god am I in love' she thought 'I am' She
>loved kissing him. She loved talking to him. She loved
>just being with him. She was in love with Nicholas
>Foxworth Crane. She snapped out of her daze when Fox
>put his cold hands on her back. She shivered. "Whats
>wrong?" Fox asked. ''Nothing you hands where just cold
>is all'' "I'm sorry" "It's alright" she said kissing
>him again. After a long period of time kissing they
>broke apart for some much needed air. "I think we
>should get ready for work before were both fired."
>Theresa said. "Yeah i better get back to my room
>before anyone see us." "Is it alright if we keep this
>just between us for now? I am still married to your
>father." ''It's alright Theresa'' ''Your the best Fox"
>she said "Now go before someone sees you.''
>
>Fox left and went to his own room where he laid down
>on his bed trying not to go to sleep. Back in Theresa
>bedroom she was getting ready for work. She got a
>shower and was ready to go in an half and hour. Then
>she went down to breakfast. "Good morning dear.''
>Julian said as Theresa enter the room. ''Don't ever
>call me that again Julian." she shot back. "Testy are
>we?" Ivy said "Ivy I'm not in the mood to with with
>yiu this early in the morning." Theresa said looking
>at the stair as Fox came down them. ''Ready for work
>Theresa?" ''Yeah Fox lets go.'' Fox and Theresa
>started to for the door when Ethan came down the
>stairs. "Fox where you going with Theresa?" "Well if
>you must know I'm going to work.'' "You don't work at
>Crane Industeries.' "Yes grandfather gave me a job as
>Theresa assistant" he shot back "Oh really? Well never
>mind then" Ethan said as he walked away mad. "Can you
>believe him?" Theresa said bewildered. "No. Are you
>ready?" She nodded and they left. On the way to Crane
>Industiers they talked about little Ethan and held
>hands the all the way there.
>
>Chapter 6 One worried look, Three little words
>
>Theresa had been working straight for 8 hours. She was
>so tired and had a really bad headach. She'd took two
>pain killers, but it hadn't worked. She put her head
>in her hands when Fox came in. "What wrong
>beautiful?'' She lefted her head up to look at him.
>"It's nothing. Really'' ''No its not. What wrong
>Theresa?" Fox said with a worried look on his face. "I
>just have a really bad headach, and I'm tired.'' Fox
>went over and kneeled beside Theresa's chair and said
>to her. ''Come on I'll take you back to the mansion
>and you can go to bed and take something for your
>headach. Ok?'' ''Fox your really sweet but I still
>have files to transfere here.'' ''Hey don't worry
>about them. I'm your assistant, I'll come back here,
>transfere the rest of the files then I'll come back to
>the mansion and check on you'' "Fox thank you so much.
>This really means alot to me.''
>
>Fox drove Theresa back to the mansion. She had fallen
>asleep in the car so he carried her to her bedroom. He
>kissed her on her forehead then left. Thanks god
>everyone was at work. If anyone had seen him carry
>Theresa to her room they would have killed him for
>trying to take advantage of her.
>
>Fox went back to Crane Industeries. He transfered what
>was left of Theresa's files, it only took about an
>hour and a half. "What are you doing in Theresa's
>office'' Ethan said coming into the room. ''She had a
>headach and I took her home. She still had some things
>to do here so I told her that I would finish up here.
>Why?" Fox said not really paying attention to Ethan.
>"Why'd you take her home?" Ethan said "Because
>numbskull she was tired.'' "Fox I'm warning you. You
>better stay away from Theresa. She not on of her one
>night stands that you just dump in the morning and
>never see again.'' "You have so say so in what I OR
>Theresa does. Now if you don't mind I'm leaving to go
>check on Theresa. Goodbye Ethan.'' with that said Fox
>walked by Ethan and out the door.
>
>Fox was back at the mansion in less then fifteen
>minutes. He walked up to Theresa's room and knocked on
>the door and went in. Theresa was laying on the bed
>sleeping. 'She looked so beautiful sleeping' he
>thought. He got in bed with her and rapped his arms
>around her. Just then she stured and said ''I love you
>Fox.'' Fox was shocked. 'She really loves me.' he
>thought ''I love you too Theresa'' he said then fell
>asleep with Theresa in his arms.
>
>Chapter 7 A thousand 'I love yous'
>
>That was the beginning for Fox and Theresa. They both
>were very much in love with the other. Everyday they
>would wake up in each other's arms. They would
>whispered 'I love yous' in each other's ear when noone
>was looking. When they kissed they both knew that they
>were meant for each other. They were in love. But only
>behind closed doors. Noone knew about then. Noone knew
>how much they were in love. They kept it a serect for
>five months. Intill one day Fox asked Theresa a very
>important question.
>
>Chapter 8 The Important Question
>
>Theresa woke up and 9:53am. She rolled over expecting
>to see Fox there, but he wasn't instead there was a
>note that said:
>
>Beautiful- I'm sorry for leaving so soon this morning
>but I needed to get some things ready for today. Meet
>me at the Gazebo at noon. Please wear the dress in the
>chair next to your bed. I love you
>
>All my love, Fox
>
>Theresa looked over to the chair in it was the most
>beautiful dress she ever seen. It was a long white
>dress. It had thin straps, it was so beautiful.
>
>Theresa got into the shower for an hour. Got out and
>out on the white dress. She fixed her hair and
>make-up. She left her hair down but curled into little
>ringlets. When she was ready it was a couple minutes
>to 12.
>
>She went down stairs and walked around to the the back
>where the Gazebo was. In front of the Gazebo Fox was
>standing there with a rose in his hand. ''Fox this is
>beautiful'' she said looking around. The Gazebo was
>full of roses and soft music was playing in the
>background. Fox kissed Theresa before saying anything.
>''Whats all this for?'' "Well theres something I want
>to ask you'' he said "Theresa I love you more then
>life itself. From the first night I met you I knew
>that I loved you. There is noone in the world that
>knows me like you do. There is noone in the world that
>makes me feel the way you make me feel. When I'm with
>you I feel like we can do anything together. Noone had
>ever made me feel like that before.'' Right then Fox
>got down on one knee, pulled out a ring box and opened
>it. "Theresa Lopze-Fitzgerald will you make me the
>happiest man alive and marry me?'' Theresa was so
>shocked. Tears were running down her have. Then she
>said. "Yes. Yes I will marry you!'' Fox grabbed her
>and swung her around. Then he slipped a silver ring on
>her figure. ''I love you Fox'' she said through tears.
>''Well I guess we have to tell people about us now.''
>Fox said smiling ''Yeah'' she said
>

>happy.'' ''Your happy for them? Sheridan you know how
>the Cranes are.'' ''Yes Luis I do. I used to be a
>Crane so I know everything about them. When Fox came

>"Theresa just tell me what it is.'' "This morning I
>wasn't feeling well so I went to see Dr. Russell and
>she told me that I was almost 2 weeks pregnant." Fox
>had a shock look on his face. 'Did he just hear her
>right? I'm going to be a father' he thought. ''Fox
>please say something. I was going to tell you after
>the wedding tomorrow. Are you mad at me?'' "Mad at
>you? No! It's just I'm going to be a gather. I'm going
>to be a real father.'' He hugged and kissed Theresa.
>''Theresa this is great. I love you so much.'' "I love
>you too, but you have to go. Now!'' "What? Why?''
