CHAPTER 25
Home
She had just come back from leaving little Ethan at the mansion.
"Fox, I'm taking Alexandra outside, do you want to join us?"
He looked at her as she picked up the little girl.
"I'm about done with my report, I'll be outside in just a sec."
She went outside with their daughter and he could hear them giggle.
"I'll never be able to finish this report."
He went outside and watched them play. Teresa was lying on the grass, flat on her back holding Alexandra over her head who was giggling uncontrollably. She looked at her father and gave him a smile with the first teeth starting to appear.
"Dadda."
"You're done with the report sweetheart?"
"No, I thought I would join my two beautiful ladies out here."
Alexandra started wiggling in Teresa's arms. She put her down. To both Teresa and Fox's surprise, the little girl got up.
"Oh my God, Fox.she is walking, she's walking."
"I can see that."
He got down on his knees and opened his arms.
"Come on Alex, come see daddy."
The little girl fell and crawled all the way to Fox who started laughing.
"That was amazing, wasn't it?"
"Daddy's going to order you the biggest teddy bear he can find and I will also."
"Ok, Fox.stop spoiling her. You can't get her everything."
"But, Resa she's my little girl."
"Well, well, well Nicholas Crane. Who would have thought that one day you would become a sappy father."
"What can I say? She captured my heart."
She was so happy and every time she looked in his face she knew he was also happy. It was so overwhelming at times but she didn't mind, she loved him.
"Fox."
He was playing with Alexandra, throwing her in the air.
"Yes, what is it?"
"I love you."
He put Alexandra in her park and went to Teresa. He ran his fingers through her hair, then down along her face, her lips and kissed them.
"And I love you." *****
He was in the gazebo, standing near a tree.
"You thought you were so clever Fox, didn't you? I don't have to be anywhere near your house to see what is happening. You will pay for this with your life brother."
*****
They were getting ready to go to bed. She looked at him.
"I'm not that tired, are you?"
"Let me think, what's in it for me if I'm not that tired?"
"Spoken like a true Crane."
"Come here."
They started kissing. Their kissed ignited their passion.
"You're devilish Teresa, you know that?"
"You did tell me that many times.and you are wicked!"
She ran her hand over his chest, and she felt his muscles clenched under her touch. She took his hand and brought it up to her breast.
"Feel my heart, feel it beating. Take me right now."
And without a saying a word back to her, he did.
*****
"Do you ever have regrets, Resa?"
"Bermuda was my biggest regret for such a long time, but I wouldn't have my beautiful son and I wouldn't have you if it hadn't happened. We've been married for practically 5 years and I wouldn't change a single thing. What about you?"
"I have a regret where we are concerned."
"What? What do you mean?"
He didn't answer, he left the bed and went into his closet. He came back and looked at her. She had a panicked look in her eyes.
"Relax Teresa, I didn't mean it that way."
"How did you mean it?"
"I meant the way we got married. I've been thinking for a long time that maybe we should have a real wedding. A church wedding with family and friends."
"You mean."
"Yes, I do. Will you marry me again?"
She looked at him and ran her fingers in his hair.
"Nothing would make me prouder than to be your wife again. Yes, let's do it."
"How is before the end of the summer for you?"
"That gives us a month and half to get ready."
"That's more than enough, Teresa."
He showed her what he took out of the closet.
"Is this for me?"
"No, it's for me. I enjoy huge sparkling diamonds.yes silly, it's for you. I thought you deserved to have something bigger."
"But I love my ring."
"Don't worry, they're a set."
He kissed her.
"So tell me, are you ready for round 2?"
She laughed and kissed him back.
She had just come back from leaving little Ethan at the mansion.
