Disclaimer: I seriously doubt that anyone believes that I am the owner of
Passions, which belongs to James E. Reilly, the NBC network, etc.
Warnings: A few bad words here and there, but nothing too bad. I'm also anti-Theresa and Ethan. But don't worry, Theresa fans, I'm not planning to do any bashing in this story. I'm just warning you because I might one day feel really angry at Theresa, and unconsciously make her look bad. Although, I promise that if Gwen has a happy ending, so will Theresa.
Author's Notes: I got this idea by watching a Chinese soap opera, and those can be very dramatic, so the characters might overreact a lot of the times. I also quit watching Passions for some time, and only recently started again. I haven't gotten familiar with the character Fox, so there might be a bit of OOCness. I have also changed a few things around.
Fox and Gwen are the same age, 24. They have also gone to the same boarding school in England.
- Ethan and Gwen met when they were 19, being introduced to each other by Ivy and Rebecca. Gwen didn't want to date Ethan, but was
pressured by her mother and father.
They haven't found out yet that Ethan is not Julian's son.
Theresa and Ethan were going out when they were 14, but Ethan dumped Theresa at the age of 16 because his family didn't approve of
her, and Theresa has been trying to get him back ever since.
Reviews would be greatly appreciated, but please, don't flame me for the pairing, or for being a Gwen or Fox fan. Keep in mind that everybody is entitled to their own opinion. I respect yours, and, hopefully, you will return the common courtesy.

~Gwen's POV~
"AAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" the scream echoed through the corridors of the mansion, making me turn from my destination with a start. Realizing that it had come from Theresa's room, I made a quick turn to the right and dashed through the door.
I was greeted with a familiar site that brought both warmth to the core of my heart and dread to the pit of my stomach. Standing before me was Fox Crane, the man that I had left back in England so many years before. He looked the same as he ever did, as if time had stood still from the time that we were separated. His sapphire eyes still made my knees buckle with its intense gaze; that golden blond hair was still sharply spiked.
/"You put so much gel in your hair, I almost cut my fingers!" I would always complain teasingly whenever I ran a hand through that patch of knives.
"Well, maybe you should stop touching my hair," he would counter.
"You wouldn't want that to happen."
"You know what Gwen? You're right."
"Well of course! I'm always right!"/
I smiled fondly at the memory. That conversation would be followed by a little snogging session, most often interrupted by one of our friends imitating vomiting, or even the occasional warning given to us by a professor.
But he was not that same man that I remembered. The Fox Crane that I knew would have swept me off of my feet and spin me around whenever I walked into a room. The Fox Crane that I remembered would always hold a warm light in his eyes and place that comforting smile on his face that would say "Everything is right with the world". What I was met with was a glare of ice, and an arrogant smirk.
'Oh Fox, what happened in the time that we were apart? Did my leaving change you that much?' I pondered silently in my mind.
Mother, Julian, Ivy, Ethan, and Pilar soon clambered in behind me, jostling me from my train of thought.
"Fox, when did you get back to Harmony?" Ethan asked, his hostility apparent in his voice.
"Fox?" Theresa interrupted confusedly.
"Hello Theresa. I saw your picture in the paper. It didn't do you justice," Fox said, eyeing Theresa up and down.
I glared at him, incredulous at his behavior. Fox had always been a charmer, but never did he flirt with someone in front of my face.
"But I guess you don't know who I am. In which case, allow me to introduce myself. Nicholas Foxworth Crane...Fox for short. I'm the second son of Ivy and Julian Crane." He then directed his attention at Ivy and Julian. "Hello Mummsy. How's it going Pops? I'm Back!"

It's really short. Not at all up to my usual standards. The next chapter will be of the same scene, but from Fox's POV, so I guess you can count this as only half of chapter 1. Oh, and does anyone know how to do italics? Or how to change elements in the story without having to remove it from ff.net first? I use Microsoft, and for some reason, all of that stuff (italics, bold, etc.) disappears when I post, and the spacing has to be increased by 3x in order to get the desired effect.
