Hey it's me Alyson AKA Desire N Sin…. It Has been awhile since I updated. So long I forgot my log in email address. That is how long I haven't been in it. So I had to repost everything under this pen name. I am going to wrap this up…
Theresa
I walked into the Mansion head hung low, I heard someone faintly say that they wanted me to sing, I forgot who is was, my eyes were concentrated on him, he looked happy but looks can be deceiving, I search deep into his eyes, then I saw it, the sparkle was not there, when Ethan was truly happy you can see the sparkle, and then I realize NO! Actually I knew that he wasn't truly happy! DAMN HER! DAMN HER for making him endure a life not by his choice but by obligations!
I remember walking to the stage and someone handed me the mic a soft tune flowed in the air, I saw him look up but he quickly looked away once he saw me staring! Then I did the one thing I vow not to do, I pour out all my feeling in a single note.
Verse 1
"I can't leave you but I know you can't stay
I never thought our love could end up this way
and I can't imagine livin life without you now
how could this happen that your love let me down
never thought I'd feel so much hurt inside
so much to even let down my pride
and I know it's over now so darlin' help me out"
I saw him look up as I belt out the first verse he knew the song was for him; she knew the song was for him, I saw the look in Gwen's eyes. She knew, she knew that while she had him physically, I had his heart and soul; she knew that it was something that she would never have!
I laughed you know maybe it was time to let go, but how can I let go of my one true love!
chorus:
before you go tomorrow
just love me today
whisper you'll stay with me
tread softly as you walk away
ooooohhhhh
Verse 2
"My love of a lifetime had left suddenly (suddenly)
I thought our love, could go on endlessly
and I can't believe you, that you could go on
there's no way out I'm not that strong
now my hearts are starin into your eyes (into your eyes)
and my heart just wants to ask you why
why did this have to be , that you're leavin me"
Everyone was amazed, even I was amazed I poured out my Heart and Soul into this song I wasn't going to hide my feelings anymore. There was no going back now!
repeat chorus
Verse 3
"There's no sense in denyin
I know that I'm just lyin to myself
I need your help so don't go away
just give me one more night to make things right
cuz I don't believe that you wanna leave
and end this way"
repeat chorus twice
When I finished the song, everyone was wide eyed with amazement, I gently dropped the mic and broke through the couples on the floor, as I pass Ethan I gently whispered "Before you go tomorrow, just love me today" The look on his face was priceless! But I had decided that it was time for me to retire into my lonely bedroom, I just couldn't take it anymore I couldn't bear to see them together not like this! I had to get away, as I started to ascend the stairs I felt a pair of arms grab me.
"Theresa, you think that your stupid little song is going to get Ethan back!"
I turn around to face HER, his Wife "No!" I answered softly
"Look at this!" as she raise her hand to show me her wedding ring "This Theresa means I won, and I got the ULTIMATE prize, all the while you sit in the shadow and pine away for a man that will never be yours!"
"Gwen" I said softly, as I slowly lean in and whispered "Though you might have him, you know I own him wholly, his heart, his soul, his thoughts and his mind, I invade his deepest fantasies his dreams while he lays in bed with you, when he make love to you, he utters my name not just a whisper but a moan as though he is making love to me, though you have him physically you, I won his Heart and Soul. You and I both know he is with you because he has obligations to you!"
I gently removed her grasp from my arm and proceeded to ascend the stairs to check on my baby. I was relieved that this day was going to be over. I gently closed the door checked on Little Ethan, he was sleeping so peacefully I proceeded to the bathroom, I let the warm water and steam consume my body, if only I could wash away the pain that ached in my heart but it wasn't that simple, my thoughts drifted to what Gwen had said was I going to be a women who lurked in the shadows waiting and wanting a Man that belongs to someone else. Maybe this was how the chapter of my life was going to end me in the shadows waiting for Ethan. I began to feel sleep overtaking me and I stepped out of the bathroom and got dress and proceeded to my bed, maybe tomorrow will be better!
I felt a presence in my room, I knew it was not Ethan and I quickly got up and started screaming!
"HELP, WHO ARE YOU, WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE, SOMEONE HELP ME!" I yelled as loudly as I could but no one came, then I heard HIM at the door!
"Theresa, open the door Theresa are you O.K., who's in there with you!" I heard Ethan
"Ethan oh my god, HELP ME, there is someone in here!"
I heard the door open, and Ethan attack the stranger they were scuffling for a while I heard Gwen and Ivy outside yelling for someone to open the door. I remember hearing Sam trying to force the door open then the lights came on Sam came in and broke the fight between Ethan and the Stranger. Funny how things have a way of working themselves out, here Ethan is supposed to be on his honeymoon but yet he is in my room coming to my rescue. I briefly heard the name Fox, was this the name of the stranger and what was he doing in my room. I saw him eyeballing me up and down it was flattering yet it was disgusting at the same time.
"Hi, Step Mommy you know your pictures in the papers did you know justice" as he proceeded to grab my hand and kiss it what an arrogant bastard he was "Nicholas Foxworth Crane, Fox for short. I'm the second son of...wait a minute, I tell a lie. The truth is I'm the first son of Ivy and Julian Crane."
I saw a look of anger and disappointment in Ethan eyes, Nicholas FOX as he prefers to be called cause quiet a scene tonight making everyone on edge, what was it about this boy that made people hate him so. I heard Ethan tell him to stay away from me I knew from the moment on that Ethan still loved me!
I proceed to walk over to Gwen with victory in my eyes.
"Looks like Ethan still loves me, how do you feel now that you were moments away from sharing a romantic moment together, but instead of making love to you he came to my rescue"
"Look Theresa, I buried you before and I can do it again!"
"What is that suppose to mean?"
"Never mind!" She was shaking had she reveal something that she was not suppose to. "Come on Ethan lets go to bed" I heard her tell him, she had a very nervous look on her face there is something that you are hiding Gwen Hotchkiss and by god I am going to find out what it is if it is the last thing I do. I couldn't help but think about Fox he was gorgeous, maybe he will be my allied in this fight against Gwen, Rebecca and Ivy. By the display that he had shown tonight I have some to the conclusion that he is not fond of either one of those women. No matter, sleep was starting to consume my body and mind the events from tonight had left everyone on edge especially Gwen tomorrow I was going to find out what the Hotchkiss women were up to!
Author's Note: I wrote this a while ago after the Ethan and Gwen wedding. I am thinking about making it into a THERFOX. Because Ethan is so played out! What do you think?
