Chapter 17

Theresa heard the doorbell ring. She got up from her seat and answered the door. She was suprised to see Audrey standing right in front of her.

"Audrey? Is that you?"

"Yeah!" They both squealed and hugged each other.

"I haven't seen you in ages. What's up?"

"Nothing much. What about you?"

"Nothing much has changed except."

"Except..

"I'm engaged!"

"What? You are? Congratulations! Is it Ethan? It is isn't it? I knew you too were meant for each other-"

"No it's not Ethan."

"Than you is it?" Theresa just heard Fox enter.

"He's here. Come and meet him." Theresa pulled Audrey towards the doorway where Fox was. "Audrey meet my fiancée Nicholas Foxworth Crane." She smiled at him.

He turned pale when he saw Theresa walk into sight with Audrey. "Uh nice to meet you" He held out his hand.

"Nice to meet you too" she said shaking his hand.

"I have to go and meet Gwen so in the mean time you two could get to go one another." She walked over to Fox and lightly kissed him on the lips. "Bye honey"

"Bye" Theresa exited the house.

'What are you doing here?"

"Two reasons. To visit Theresa and you"

"Me? What do you want to do with me?"

"I thought once we've seen each other again we'd get back together" Fox let out a laugh.

"I'm sorry that you wasted your time thinking about something that is never ever going to come true"

"Don't say that I know you still love me"

"I'm sorry but I never loved you. I haven't even been in love until I met Theresa."

"I see. But may I ask you something?"

"What?"

"May I at least get one last kiss good-bye?"

"No I can't"

"Please Fox. I'll go after you kiss me"

"Promise"

"Cross my heart"

"Fine" He leaned in and kissed her softly. When he was about to pull back she wrapped her arms around his neck forcing him to keep on kissing her.

"Oh shoot I forgot my keys" Theresa opened the door. A shock of pain and terror came on her face as she laid her eyes on Fox and Audrey.

Audrey heard the door open and pushed Fox off of her. "Stop it Fox! You're engaged! How could you do this to Theresa?!" She turned around. "Oh Theresa I am so sorr-"

"It's not you're fault Audrey." Tears started streaming down her face. She walked up to Fox and smacked him across the face. "How could? I thought you loved me!" she screamed as she slipped off her engagement ring and threw it at him. She then took one last glance at him and ran through the door.

"Looks like you messed up"

"Shut-up and get the hell away from me!"

"If you think that's it you're wrong. I came down here thinking that we were going to get married and I would finally be a Crane!"

"Is that all you care about? Being a crane?"

"Why do you even ask?" Fox was a little hurt but it soon turned into anger.

"So the only reason you wanted to be with me was because I was Crane. Unbelievable"

"Why do you even sound surprised?"

"I don't know why. I should've know a tramp like you would go after my wallet."

"Insult me as you must but at least I got my revenge. Even though I feel like a fool for coming here at least I know that I have the satisfaction of knowing that I got revenge on Nicholas crane. Tata". She walked out of his house and his life.

"At least I have one less thing to worry about. I have to go and find Theresa and tell her what really happened or else I'll lose her." Fox ran out and drove to the park hoping she would be there. When he got there he hoped out and walked around anxiously looking around to find her. He then finally saw her sitting on a bench talking to someone. As he walked closer he stopped, dead in his tracks. His Theresa was kissing another man- none other than Chuck Wilson.
