Chapter 20

A month passed, Fox and Theresa were still together. Danielle had been planning to separate the two of them ages ago but Fox had been pleading to have more time with Theresa, so she reluctantly agreed. Considering it would be the last time the two of them ever spent together.

Theresa rejoined Crane Industries as her normal position because she was an amazing worker and Fox had pleaded her to come back. He wanted to spend as much time with her as possible.

As far as Fox knew, Danielle wasn't planning anything dangerous. Just some event that would break Theresa's heart. He hoped he wouldn't be there when she found out. At the beginning he had planned to leave Harmony so he wouldn't have to face her but Danielle threatened to kill Theresa if he just left like that.

Everywhere they went, Danielle would be close by stalking them. Fox definately was getting annoyed, she would call him all the time, interrupting whatever Theresa and him were doing. He tried going to secluded areas where no one knew about but somehow Danielle would always somehow be there.

In the meantime he would make the best of everything, as if each second he had with Theresa was his last.

One afternoon Theresa was in the bathroom undressing herself for her shower when she remembered that she had left she shampoo downstairs. She groaned and left on her black revealing lingerie.

She quickly scurried down and ran into the kitchen, passing Fox on the way. He had been about to watch tv when Theresa came running by. He quickly settled back the remote onto the coffee table. This was going to be good. She had her ways to turn him on.

When Theresa came running back carrying a bag of containers, he grabbed hold of her arm making her drop grasp of the sack. She screeched out of surprise as she pulled down onto his lap.

"Fox!"

"What?" he was busy looking at her sheer undergarments and licking his lips in approval.

"I need to go take my shower."

He groaned and began to rub her exposed stomach.

"You can take it later."

"Why not now?"

"Because."

"Because?" she was curious to know what his reason was.

"Because you're going to be too busy making love to me." Fox grinned.

Theresa's eyes widened as she hit him on the arm.

"And how do you know that I want to?"

Fox lowered his head as he began kissing her bare shoulder.

"You can't get enough of me, I'm in your every thought, you want to kiss me all day long." he murmured against her skin.

Theresa smirked "Really?" she slid her arms around his neck.

He moved up to kiss her slender neck "Yes."

She was beginning to enjoy this "You're a very naughty boy." she whispered into his ear nibbling the spot she knew he loved.

He groaned out of pleasure "You knew that a long time ago, besides I turn you on."

Theresa giggled, "Unfortunately."

Fox lifted his head up to look her over once more.

"How come I've never seen you wear this before." he said as his fingers glided over the smooth material.

"Hm? Oh, because...it was a present."

"Really? From who?"

"Mike." she planted a small kiss on his nose as she watched Fox's eyes narrow a bit.

"Mike? From work?"

"Yes."

"Why would he give you something like this?"

"He said that he was shopping and when he came across it, it reminded him of me." Theresa loved to watch Fox get jealous, it just showed how much he loved her.

"Why the heck would he be shopping in that department?"

Theresa just shrugged and smiled. "Who knows?"

Fox grumbled a bit "I'm the only one that can give you inappropiate gifts."

"But you never had."

He thought about it, "True...But still, remind me to get Mike fired."

"What? No, he's very nice."

"And how would you know that?"

"I've had lunch with him a couple of times."

"Since when? I've never seen you with him."

"There were times when you were busy so we ate lunch together. He's like my back-up lunch buddy."

Fox grunted again, "I should be the one having lunch with you everyday."

She laughed "Fox, you have to share me with other people."

"What?! No, you're mine."

"Yours, since when did I belong to you?"

"Years ago."

Theresa planted a soft kiss on his lips.

"That means you belong to me."

"Something like that."

"Even though you look incredible in this, I don't want to see you wear it anymore."

"Why?"

"One word. Mike."

"It was just a gift, besides the material feels nice."

Fox rolled his eyes.

"Luckily you won't be wearing it any longer." he winked.

"You're right, because I need to take my shower."

"Are you obsessed with taking a shower?!"

"No."

"Then take one later!"

"Does it matter?"

"Yes."

"Why?"

"I need more time with you."

"Oh fine." it wasn't as if she minded. Fox was being very sweet.

One question came to his mind "Was that the only gift you got from people you didn't tell me about?"

Silence.

"Theresa..."

"Well...."

"Show me now."

"I didn't get a lot. You can see them later, I need to take my shower."

"Let me see them."

"Oh fine."

She got up from her position from his lap and dragged him up the stairs into their room. Theresa opened the closet door and peered up to the top. Behind some pairs of shoes, there were a few hidden boxes.

"They're there."

Fox pulled them down and sat down on the bed, Theresa seated herself beside him. He opened the first present, it was a bottle of perfume.

"Oh, this is pretty!"

"You've never opened these gifts before?"

She shook her head.

"I felt kind of bad." she took the bottle and sprayed a bit on her hand and sniffed it, she held it up to his hand."Smell nice?"

"No.Who gave you it?"

Theresa thought back "Um...Sean."

"Sean?"

"Yeah."

"I don't remember seeing this Sean guy."

"Hold on." she got up and opened the drawer to her table and pulled out a group picture of everyone at work and gave it to Fox. She pointed to a man in the photo.

"This guy?"

"Yeah." she thought for a moment "He's pretty hot."

Fox grunted. "I've seen better...me."

He took out the next box and opened it and it was a pair of handcuffs and it was a picture of Theresa nearly naked with another man.His eyes widened. Theresa peered over his shoulder and gaped at the photo. Fox turned to her and pinned her down on the bed.

"When did you take this?!" he held the picture in front of her face.

"I didn't take it! I swear."

"Yeah right!"

"What?! I didn't!"

"It definately looks like you."

"Fine, it's me but not my body."

"Whatever."

She got out from under his body and walked out the bedroom and slammed the door.

"Fine, you don't believe me? I'm out of here you loser."

Fox felt immediately very terrible and ashamed. How could he even doubt Theresa, after all the time he had lied to Theresa, he was now accusing her. He knew how much she loved him, she would never do something like that.

"Theresa!" he jumped up from the bed and ran after her. He opened the door and Theresa was standing right there waiting and looking at him. He quickly embraced her.

"I'm sorry..." he said against her hair.

"You are supposed to trust me."

"I know.You know me, I get jealous."

"You know I would never take those slutty pictures."

"Sorry." he repeated as he gave her a peck on the cheek. "I should have never doubted you."

Theresa smiled as Fox leaned in captured her lips in a deep kiss. He took her hand and walked back into their room to look at the last gift.

"By the way, who gave you the picture and the handcuffs?"

"Um, Paul."

"Paul..." he skimmed the group photo and pointed at a brown hair man. "This him?"

Theresa nodded. She grabbed the last gift to open it first before Fox got a chance. She opened it and blushed a deep red. She quickly closed it and put it under the bedsheets.

"What was it?"

"So Fox, where should we go for dinner tonight?" wanting to change the subject as soon as possible.

"Let me see it." he reached over to grab it but Theresa just shoved it off the bed and it opened, revealing the content inside. Fox glared.

"CONDOMS?!" he shot up from the bed and became to pace.

"Fox, calm down."

"How can I?"he reached to pick up the card that came along with it.

Theresa,

Hope you like this present, We might be using them very soon. Later babes.

--John

Fox turned red with anger and ripped the card in half, and began cursing loudly.

"What kind of gift is this?"

"I don't know."

"Why would he give you something like that?"

"Well.." Theresa just coughed.

Fox narrowed his eyes.

Theresa turned around so he wouldn't have to face him and smiled eviily. She enjoyed making him jealous and decided to take it up a notch higher.

"Well, once, I got drunk, and John seemed to just be there. The alcohol got to my head and before I knew it John and I were....well yeah.."

"You slept with him?!"

Silence.

"How could you do this to me?"

Theresa smiled and wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Don't worry Fox. You know I only have eyes for you."

He sighed in relief and grinned.

"Don't do that again."

"It's fun."

Fox just glared.

"I'm joking."

"Why are all these men giving you gifts?"

Theresa shrugged and gave a small flip of her hair. "Is it my fault that everyone finds me attractive?"

"I guess not."

She just lay back on her bed and pulled Fox on top of her.

"Don't let the gift go to waste...." she said as she moved her hips in a seductive manor.

Fox got up from the bed and planted a kiss on Theresa's forehead. She smiled in her sleep.

"Fox..." she mumbled unaware she had said that out loud.

He slid on a robe and walked downstairs. He heard his cell phone ringing, so he quickly answered it.

"Fox speaking."

"It's time."

"Danielle?! Time..? For what?"

"For you to leave Theresa."

"What, today?"

"Tomorrow, but you have to know all the plans."

Fox shook his head sadly as he listened to the words that would break Theresa's heart.
