Chapter 8
What do I want?
I loved the look on Ethan's face when he same me come out of Theresa's room. I knew that it was eating him up inside. But i honeslty liked Theresa, and she was fair game. Besides she deserved better than Ethan. I still didn't know how I felt about Gwen. I used to be so in love with her but I felt and maybe still feel betrayed that she married my brother. Excuse me, make that my half brother.
So far my flirting seems to be getting to Theresa slightly, but then I feel that maybe she wants to use me to get Ethan back. If that was so, and i found that i still had feelings for Gwen then I would use that to my advantage. Theresa and I could work together for one puirpose--to destroy Gwen and Ethan's marriage.
With a sigh, I headed downstairs. I didn't want to give Ethan too much time alone with Step Mommy. I see the way he looks at her and i know that he still loves her. But who couldn't love Theresa? Well other than Julain and Bex. But then who didn't they hate, besides themselves? Those two snots...well I didn't want to get into them rigiht now. So I checked myself in the mirror and headed downstairs.
I heard Theresa laughing before I ever got into the kitchen and I wondered what was so funny. When i opened the door she looked embarrased and flushed. I gave Ethan one of my best smiles and took an empty seat next to Theresa. Ethan shot me a dirty look but didn't persue it or say anything, because at that time Magdalena, the maid came in.
"Good morning, Magdalena," I said shooting her a sweet smile. "may I have eggs over easy and toast with a glass of orange juice?"
Magdalena looked shocked. I guess that many of those that live in the mansion had been nice to her. Not that I had always been so nice. I was quite a terror when i was younger, and home from school. I think that it was just because I was so hurt that mother never seemed to love me the way she did Ethan. But I think I turned out ok. Sure I don't mind having a few drinks and gambling, but i don't have a problem with it. I can control despite what Julian thinks.
"Fresh squeezed Mr.Crane?" Magdalena asked, staring at me like I was an alien.
"Concentrate is fine." I stated, dismissing her "I must have missed out on quite a joke!" I say to Therea, wanting to laugh at Ethan's glares.
"Not really." Theresa stated quietly. "it was a private joke."
So they still shared private jokes. Oh well, that didn't matter. Once I figured out how I felt about her and Gwen then I would deal with that. But in the mean time I planned to gain Theresa's trust and affection. I would do almost anything to do that. But I wouldn't use lil Ethan to do that. I simply adored the child and loved to help with him. As if the little tyke knew what I was thinking, his cries became audible through a monitor sitting on the table. Theresa stood up at the same time I did.
"I'll get him!" I tell her, heading for the door.
"But Fox you just sat down and your breakfast would get cold." She protested.
"Its fine. I want too. Stay here, relax. Chat with Ethan, and eat something for petesake." I tell her and head out the door and back upstairs .I jogged up the stairs. It would probably ruin my reputation, if people knew how i took to a baby like a duck does to water. And lil Ethan was one baby i couldn't resist. He was Theresa's child after all. And we both had the same rotten luck to have Julian as a father. Oh No i can't believe I didn't think of it until just now but if I were to marry Theresa then my step son would be my brother. Thats so weird!
Ignoring that for the moment i picked the baby up. His blond hair was mussed up and he was quite fussy. But that was quite alright. I expect that he was hungry and wanted his mama. But first he needed his diaper changed. I have never done that before, leaving it to Theresa, but now was the time to learn i suppose. After a few trials and errors I got it right and changed him into a onesie. Then we were headed back downstairs to mommy.
Theresa took him outnof my arms immediately. "There's my lil angel, yes I love you baby!" she cooed then turned to me. "Wow! You changed him!"
"Diaper and all!" I said proudly, "But don't you dare tell anyone or I will blantantly deny it."
Theresa laughed. "Not a word!" she promised. "My, I am beginning to love having you around."
"Thats good, because I plan to be around for a while." I informed her, shooting her a flirty grin. "anyway I think I will head out to play a game Tennis."
"But you didn't eat anything," Theresa protested, grabbing at my arm. Her touch sent something that felt like a thousand bolts of electricity through my body. Was that good or bad? I decided not to wait around to find out because I had the sudden urge to kiss her, and I didn't feel like getting in a punching match with Ethan again.
"Don't worry Theresa, I will eat later. Give my apologies to Magdalena."
With that i turned to leave. But Ethan followed me. Like I really wanted to see his ugly face at this time of morning, and twice at that.
"Just a moment Fox I want a word with you."
"You mean you want to slug me again." I said rolling my eyes. "spew your nonsense so I may leave."
Ethan seemed to be getting furious. Well good, because i think he deserved it. But I really would rather be out of this mansion that listening to my whiney half brothers rants over the woman he rejected. If he loved Theresa so much why didn't he just marry her and agree to support Gwen?
"I got your game, Fox. I know what you're doing. You might as well give it up because she's too good for you. And besides she is your step mother!"
"you got my game?" I asked laughing, "Dude, I got your game. you still want Theresa but you want Gwen too. I believe they call that having or in your case wanting you cake and eating it too. you know nothing about me Ethan. You were too busy with mommy dearest. Do you honedtly think Julian is going to stay married to her forever ? Not with Bex around!"
Ethan drew back his fist to hit me. That was fine because I intended to fight back this time. But he again dropped his hand. Seeing Julian I understood why. Obviously my words had gotten to him. I shoved him out of my way, and whispered "see you later, bro"
