Theresa lay in a mysterious bed she wakes up and doesn't recognize her surroundings, she turns and sees that she is in a strange room. She gets up and walks over to the bedroom door and turns the knob, it is locked. "What is going on?" She notices that she is in a log cabin of some kind. She walks over to the window and sees it's way too small for her to fit through especially with her now large baby bump. After getting a little panicked she runs over to the phone and picks it up. No dial tone. She is sits down and puts her head in her hands and can't believe that she is in an unfamiliar place. She hears a clicking sound at the lock of the door she looks around frantically for a weapon to defend herself and can't find a thing so she jumps into the bed. The door opens and Ethan walks in with a bottle of whiskey in his hand as he swigs the bottle.
"Oh you're awake, beautiful." Ethan says pushing at her in his drunken stupor she pretends she wakes up.
"Ethan what are you doing where the hell am I?" Theresa says
"I took you away so we can find our love again. Don't you see Theresa its fate." Ethan says laughing then chugs the bottle. "Fate your word right darling."
"Ethan you aren't thinking clearly, you're drunk let's just go home." Theresa says petrified that this can go either way.
"I can't go home until you agree to be with me, marry me, we can raise all of the kids together, we can have that perfect life you always dreamed of." Ethan says desperately.
"But I love Noah." Theresa says
"Noah, perfect saintly Noah what a joke. So he shows up in Harmony and preys on you. He knocks you up then feels obligated to marry you and you buy it." Ethan says throwing the empty bottle at the wall causing it to shatter.
"You know all about that don't you Ethan. After all that's why you married Gwen and broke both of our hearts. Don't you dare say one mean thing about Noah, after all he is your brother and is a great man!" Theresa says
"You don't get it Theresa I am willing to right every wrong I've done to you." Ethan says holding her hand.
"Ethan, it's over. What we had is over, we need to move on. We share a son and I wouldn't change that for the world but you and I had our time and it's over. Now I want to go home." Theresa says Ethan stands up and storms out of the room slamming and locking the door behind him.
"You don't understand Theresa you will love me again, in time you will. You aren't going anywhere until you realize that." Ethan says to Theresa through the door. Theresa breaks down crying and she gets a pain in her stomach she relaxes and the pain subsides about an hour later she sits up.
"I have to get out of here." Theresa says as she goes to the window and starts to wander around the room. She opens the closet and sees it has a few boxes and in the corner hidden she sees a small black box. She picks it up and sees it's a laptop she opens it and presses the on button but nothing happens. "It's dead, dam, maybe there's a charger." She puts it down and starts searching more she moves a box and sees a cord and picks it up she looks on the laptop and plugs the cord into the charging port, it's a perfect fit so she goes over to the bed and finds an outlet and plugs it in. She sees the charging light come on. But the laptop won't turn on yet. "It's needs some time to charge." The wheels in her head start to spin, she needs to get Ethan out of here so she can somehow get someone to her. But where is she, she knows she can manipulate Ethan being drunk. "Here we go." She shoves the laptop under the bed just in case. "Ethan?" She yells, "Ethan, can you come in here?" Her voice waivers and she hears the lock again and the door opens.
"Theresa are you alright." Ethan says a little more sober.
"Ethan, I was thinking we can talk for a little bit." Theresa says
"You want to talk, what about?" Ethan asks
"Now that you are more sober. Why did you kidnap me?" Theresa asks
"I had no choice Theresa I can't help the way I feel I handled things badly I admit it. But I know we have a great love and I know we can find it again." Ethan says
"I don't understand last year you told me I had to accept your decision to be with Gwen and I wouldn't budge I kept trying to make you see that I was the only one for you. Now the shoe is on the other foot and what do you do you take me away from everyone and take me to only God knows where. My pregnancy is so fragile already this can't help." Theresa says
"It was the only way." Ethan says
"Where are we, I am so scared." Theresa says
"Don't be scared, we aren't far from Harmony." Ethan says putting his hand on her leg.
"I miss Little Ethan and my family, I just want to go home." Theresa says
"I know you do but we need more time." Ethan says
"How much time?" Theresa asks
"Until you realize that we can make this work." Ethan says as there is a beep from under the bed, Theresa realizes it's charged enough and will turn on, she sees Ethan hears it but she puts her hands on his face.
"Ethan please." Theresa says pleading
"We are in a secluded cabin in the Pinewoods, only 10 miles away from Harmony. I bought it after my marriage ended. So you don't need to worry just relax. Can I get you anything?" Ethan asks
"I would really love some fresh strawberries and milk I think I'm having a craving." Theresa says
"No problem I'm gonna run to the store, it'll take me about an hour so the three of you just rest and I'll be right back." Ethan says
"Thank you Ethan." Theresa says as he leaves and locks the door. She runs and looks out the window and sees him get in his car and drive off. She pulls the laptop from under the bed and powers it on. It turns on and the little Wi-Fi box came up she opened it and saw one network pop up. It said EWINTHROP and she double clicks on it and it asks for a password. "Dam, what's the password." She thinks for a second then types T-H-E-R-E-S-A and she is automatically logged in. "Oh Ethan you are so predictable." She opens up her email and sends an email to Gwen and she types,
Gwen, I don't have much time but I'm sure you know Ethan has taken me hostage, after asking him a few questions he told me we are in a secluded cabin in the Pinewoods, only 10 miles away from Harmony that's all he gave me. He says he bought it after your marriage ended. Please help me, call Chief Bennett, Luis and whoever you can to get me out of here. I've been having cramps and I'm getting scared.
I'd type more but he'll be back any second.
Theresa.
She selects high priority and doesn't hesitate to hit send and gets a box that the email has been sent. She hears a car pull up, She holds down the power button down and hurries to the closet and puts the laptop back in the closet. She hears the front door open.
"Theresa I'm back, I got you a few things." Ethan says as Theresa closes the closet and hurries into bed as Ethan opens the bedroom door. She closes her eyes and pretends to be asleep. "Theresa?" He sees her asleep and sits down on the bed. "You rest honey, everything will be alright." Ethan says caressing her hair, he puts his hand on her growing stomach and feels a light kick. "Don't worry you two this is your daddy, and I will never let anything bad happen to you." Ethan says as the rage builds in Theresa's mind, she wants to punch him in the face for pretending to be there father. She keeps her eyes closed and prays Gwen will get to her soon as a sharp pain hits her and she tries to struggle through so Ethan doesn't know she's really awake.
(Gwen gets Theresa's email and springs into action. Will she find Theresa in time, she has gone into early labor and will the babies be alright? Stay tuned)
