Theresa was dreaming. She wanted to wake up but she couldn't. The dream wouldn't let her. She saw Ethan and Gwen standing at an alter. He was declaring his love to her. He said they would be together forever. Then they were in a hospital room and Gwen was holding a baby. "You'll make the best mommy in the world. I love you." Ethan told Gwen. Theresa wanted it to stop but it wouldn't. Then the worst part came. "Theresa, I hate you. How did you ever think I would love the housekeeper's daughter. I would never sink THAT low. You are nothing to me and you never will be." Theresa woke up in a cold sweat, tears streaming down her face. She had never had a dream like that. She was not going to let Ethan Crane hurt her like that.
For Ethan the week went quickly. He had tried to spend as much time with Theresa as possible but she had avoided him and he didn't know why. He really wanted to be with her. She was unlike anyone he had ever met.
These last few weeks he had had time to think about him and Gwen's relationship and he realized he did love her but he had never had never really been in another relationship. He didn't love her as much as he should love a fiancée. He realized that now. He could be himself around Theresa, not the strong powerful Crane he was suppost to be.
A couple good things did come from Theresa's accident. First Ethan and Luis had actually became friends. They found out they had a lot in common. They liked the same sports and had some of the same thoughts on political issues. Luis had even told Ethan what had happened between him and Sheridan. Ever since Theresa had woke up Sheridan had stayed faraway from Luis. When Luis asked why she was avoiding him she screamed that she hated him and this past week she just felt sorry for him. She left with tears in her eyes.
Ethan then told Luis what Sheridan had told him she heard at the wharf. Luis blew up and angrily stomped off after Sheridan.
Three hours later they finally came back to the hospital together. Sheridan looked happy and so did Luis. Ethan realized that they probably hadn't admitted it to each other but they were in love and it made him happy for them both.
Theresa thought she was going crazy. Everytime she went to sleep she saw Ethan and Gwen. At the end of the week she was finally allowed to go home. When she first got there, there was a big party for her. As soon as she could she excused herself saying she was tired. Everyone noticed she wasn't the optimistic, happy person she used to be.
Ethan blamed himself for the accident. He thought that if she hadn't been at the park crying because of him or if he had walked her home this wouldn't have happened. At her welcome home party he saw Theresa walk up the stairs. He wanted to follow but he didn't.
Theresa climbed into bed and pulled the covers over her. It was good to be back. She wasn't really tired but lately she didn't care. Her dreams had hurt her very much but she didn't know why. Were they figments of her imagination or a warning? She was thrown from her thoughts by a knock on her door. She thought it was probably Pilar so she said Come in.
Ethan snuck upstairs he needed to see Theresa so he knocked on her door. He heard her saw come in so he opened the door.
Theresa hadn't expected Ethan. She pulled the blankets up to her shoulders. "Ethan, I wasn't expecting you."
"Theresa, we need to talk. I want to know what is wrong. It's almost like you hate me. If you blame me for your accident you can't possibly blame me more than I blame myself. I'm so sorry." Said Ethan.
"Ethan, I don't blame you. I definitely don't hate you. I want to be friends." She said nervously.
"Ok, but that doesn't explain why you have been avoiding me. It's made me feel awful. Theresa, you are my friend and I want an explanation.
"Well…uh you see I-I haven't been myself lately. I'm really sorry. Right now I'm really tired. I'll see you later." She turned the opposite way as tears slipped down her face.
Ethan just stood there. He didn't want to leave but he couldn't just stay. "Good bye, Theresa." He said. He walked downstairs and made the excuse that he was tired. He hugged Pilar and left. He cared about Theresa very much. Then he had an idea. He went home and started making plans.
