Really short chapter, sorry guys! but there are more being posted so that should count, right? Enjoy!
Jared couldn't believe his ears. Theresa and Ethan? But she was his wife! And pregnant with his... he felt his knees buckle beneath him... pregnant with Ethan's Child! But it wasn't possible, was it the night before their wedding? Theresa had gone home to spend the night at her mothers, and Jared had called. Pilar told him that Theresa was in the bath and couldn't come to the phone, even when Jared had persisted, but all along... had she been with Ethan?
He heard her pushing Ethan off, telling him it was Jared's baby, but was it? Jared wanted to burst through the door and demand a blood test, demand he be told the truth damnit!
But even as he put his hand on the other doorknob he could hear Ethan mocking his demands.
"You can't handle the truth Jared" the classic line given to losers like him, and if he played this wrong, then he would lose... everything. His Wife, his baby, his family...
Ethan was pushing enough for both of them anyhow, and pushing her away, right back into his arms. Jared walked away from the office absently wiping away the tear rolling down his cheek and completely unaware of the silence that had overcome the room on the other side of the door.
