*Flashback*
10 Years Ago
"What's that you have in your hand Theresa?" A young Fox asked.
"Its a book that mama bought for me." Theresa said proudly.
"What's it about?" he asked curiously.
"Its about how no matter what happens to you, you can close your eyes and everything disappears." she said wishfully.
"I think I should leave now, you have that wishful look in your eye." he said teasing her.
Theresa smiled and ran up to him. "Last one to the gazebo is a chicken." she said starting to run.
"That would be you!" he yelled as he ran behind her.
*End of Flashback*
"Theresa?" Ethan said waving his hands in front of her face.
Theresa was instantly snapped out of her daydream and looked at Ethan. "Oh! I'm sorry, I was just thinking about something." she said smiling.
"About what?" he asked putting his arms around her.
"I hate to say this, but it wasn't about you, it was about Fox." she said.
He took his arms from around her and looked at her, "Fox? What about Fox?"
"Just a memory about when we played tag in this exact spot."
"Oh." he said with a sigh of relief.
"You didn't think that...Ohhh." She said laughing and looking at him, "You were scared that I was thinking about Fox in a different way, weren't you. You were jealous for a second because you thought that I was in love with your brother."
Ethan smiled, "Maybe just a LITTLE jealous."
"Mhmm. And besides, no ones seen your brother in forever." she said snuggling into his arms. "I love to know that I made you jealous."
"And I love to know that you're all mine." he said.
"Me too." she whispered. She sighed and sank her head into Ethan's chest. Life was perfect.

"Bye Mama!" Theresa yelled behind her as she closed the door to the Lopez-Fitzgerald cottage. She was on her way to work at the Crane Industries when something unexpected happened.
She had arrived in the parking lot and was walking towards the entrance when a black SUV slammed on its brakes, blocking her from getting to the door. She looked curiously at the SUV, but could see no faces because the windows were tinted. Suddenly someone with dark black glasses rolled down the window.
"Get in the car." they ordered.
"What?" she asked completely off guard. "Why?"
"Its about your father." they said.
Theresa just stared at the person and didn't say a word. She thought it through and quickly jumped into the car.

Theresa was brought into an abandoned warehouse and many questions began to rise. "Where am I? Why can't you just tell me why I'm here? If you hurt me I'll sue you." she threatened. She then looked at the men who hadn't said a word and added, "Do you even talk? Cause I'm quiet scared right now. I mean, being picked up by someone I don't know and-" She was cut off when she looked up to see who was standing in front of her. He looked familiar but she couldn't quite put her finger on it. She looked a little closer and then gasped. "Fox?"
"Theresa!" Fox exclaimed smiling brightly. "Its been so long."
"Yeah, it has." she said still stunned as he twirled her around.
Fox finally put her down and looked at her, "How has everything been going ever since I left?"
"Crazy."
Fox gave Theresa a confused glance and motioned for the men to leave the room. "What's wrong Theresa?" he asked.
"Nothing. Nothing's wrong Fox." she said repeating herself. "My fathers disappears and then so do you without leaving a note or anything."
"Theresa, I'm sorry about your Dad, but I had to leave." he said sighing.
"Why?" she asked.
"I couldn't stand living here anymore." he replied.
"I was your best friend." she said with tears in her eyes. "I needed my best friend through all of that and you weren't even here."
"I know, and I'm sorry for that." he said putting his arms around her shoulders.
Theresa shrugged his arms off of her shoulders and just glared at him. "Why am I even here?"
"I know something about your father."
"What about him?" she asked curiously.
"I think that if you work with me, we can find out who killed him." he replied.
"What kind of work?"
"I don't know. I haven't thought about that yet."
"Well when you do find out," she said turning around, "give me a call. Can I leave now?" she asked.
Fox nodded, "Yeah."
