Chapter 1- Moving On

Disclaimer: I do not own anything that is related to Passions

FYI: Since this is fan fiction, I've made a few changes. Sheridan and Luis are married. Charity and Miguel are engaged. Theresa had a miscarriage, so little Ethan isn't there. Don't get me wrong, I love the little guy, but I just think it would be kind of weird to have Theresa fall in love with her son's half brother. Ethan and Gwen have been married for a while. On the show, Julian and Theresa's marriage was a fake but in my story it was real. Ivy was not kicked out of the mansion.

It was Saturday morning at the Crane mansion and Theresa came downstairs for breakfast. Julian, Rebecca, Ivy and Fox were already downstairs.

"Well, look what the cat drug in." Rebecca said as Theresa walked in. "It's good to see you to, Rebecca." Theresa replied, sarcastically. "Theresa, you look like you didn't get much sleep last night. Staying up late thinking of ways to steal Ethan from Gwen?" asked Ivy. "Mother, lay off!" Fox snapped back. Theresa smiled at him, happy someone was defending her.

"What's with you, Fox?" Ivy asked, "You've been defending the little Theresita a lot lately and I don't understand why." Ivy was interrupted as Ethan and Gwen came downstairs looking very happy together.

There he is. Theresa thought to herself. Oh Ethan, when are you going to come back to me? I know you love me and you only married Gwen out of obligation. You would be with me if Gwen hadn't got pregnant.

"Good morning, everyone" Ethan said, and he could feel the tension that was in the room. "What's wrong?" "Nothing, darling" Ivy said "Let's just eat breakfast." They all ate in silence.

Later that day, Theresa was in her room when she heard a knock. "Come in" she said. She looked and saw a handsome man come in. "Hey, Theresa." Fox said. "Hi" she replied quietly. Fox went and sat down on the bed next to her.

"What's wrong?" he asked. Theresa couldn't hold the tears in any longer. She started crying and said "Oh, Fox. I don't know what I'm going to do. My family keeps telling me that I need to get over Ethan. He's married to Gwen now. But it's hard. He was the first love of my life. I can't just turn my feelings off for him so quickly." Fox held her in his arms as she continued to cry.

"Theresa, I hate to be the one to break it to you, but I agree with your family. Ethan is married to Gwen now and they are expecting a child." Theresa was stunned by Fox's words, but she knew in her heart he was right. "Fox, you've been great. You are always there to listen to me pour my heart out and I really appreciate it."

"No problem" he said, "Besides, you've been really nice to me too ever since I got home." "Well," Theresa said, "I think you're right. I need to move on. Ethan is with Gwen now and I need to deal with that. There is another guy out there for me."

Fox thought to himself, If only you knew, Theresa. If only you knew.

Please review! I know it is short and this is my first fan fiction so it probably stunk. I'll get better!
