Gone : Chapter 12

******************

Kay laughed a little at the way Theresa was annoyed with her half brother. She did have to agree that Ethan could be a pain when he wanted to.

Kay: Let me try

Theresa: Please. I dont want him fighting with Fox. Fox is my best friend and I dont want Ethan running him off.

Kay: Ill be right back.

Ethan Martin: Aunt Kay?

Kay: Yes Ethan

Ethan Martin: I love you

Kay: I love you too sweetie.

She smiled at the little boy who had started to call her aunt kay latley. She loved the way she felt when she was around theresa's little boy made her feel.

She slowly walked into where the Yelling was comming from. She stared at the door. Ethan Martins room. How insensitive could two men be.

Ethan: I want you out

Fox: excuse me?

Ethan: out, I dont want you around my son or theresa

Fox: theresa is my best friend and as for your son, you have no say in whether I can or can not see him Ethan.

Ethan: Bull sh!t I dont, He is my son and I say who can see him.

Fox: I will not let you tell me who I can and can not hang out with. Ive been there for theresa and ethan Martin alot more than you have. You dumped her on countless occasions to fend for herself. You turned her against Gwen and You turned Gwen against a great woman. You know when Gwen was young she was so full of life. So energetic, Now she is resorting to anything to keep you. You ruined her and I wont let you ruin theresa !!!!

Ethan was about hit Fox when Kay let herself be noticed.

Kay: Ethan Winthrop Dont you Dare!

Ethan: Kay? what are you doing here.?

Kay: In case you forgot, Im here with Charity for a shopping trip.

Ethan: Oh, was that today?

Kay: Yes Ethan, and If you dont mind, I think you should go home and see your other child.

Ethan just looked at her.

Kay: Dont look at me like im stupid. You know Jasmine, Your daughter. Yours and gwens.

Ethan: Ill see her when I get home.

Kay: Go now. You arent supposed to be over here every second of every day. Why dont you call theresa before you come over so that she can get ethan Martin up and get him ready for you. You are here to see your son not scare him half to death where he is forced out of his own room, just so you can yell at his Uncle Fox, who was supposed to take care of him this morning.

Ethan: he is my son, I should get to take care of him when Theresa needs someone.

Kay: You are supposed to be at work.

Ethan: I took the day off.

Kay: Go home, Go, I dont want to see you back here unless you call theresa first.

Ethan: You cant tell me what to do!

Fox: I wouldnt mess with a pregnant woman.

Ethan: Nobody asked you. I cant believe you Kay, Your taking his side over mine. Your my sister. You bearly know him.

Kay: I know he was invited and theresa asked him to come here and I know you are scaring your son and at this rate, I wont get to shop and Ill be mad.

Ethan: Fine Ill go but Ill be back, Tell theresa to call me when she gets back.

With that Ethan walked out of the room.

Fox: thanks

Kay: I meant what I said. He cant just show up anytime he feels like it and start yelling at you for being here.

Fox: I know but You didnt have to do that.

Kay: I know, I wanted to. Now you take care of that little boy why we are gone.

****************************

Kay walked out of the room and theresa was standing there smiling.

Kay: what?

Theresa: he left?

Kay: He'll be back. Be sure to call him when you get back or Ill never hear the end of it.

Theresa: alright, Lets go.

**************************************

Theresa came to a halt in front of the bridal store.

Theresa: You know this used to be my favorite place. All I could imagine was getting married.

Charity: and now?

Theresa: after planning ethan and gwens, Mine and ethans, and all of mine and ethans almost weddings. im sick of it. Im not looking for a wedding anymore. I just want to be happy and If a great guy want to marry my someday, thats fine.

Kay: Any guy?

Theresa: anyone but ethan

Kay started to laugh.

Theresa: what about you Kay, Do you want to get married?

Kay: Of course. I love miguel and I would like nothing more than to marry him but He's not ready for that.

Theresa: yes he is, He doesnt want you to think its because your pregnant. He wants you to know its because he wants to. I think when you least expect it, He'll propose.

Kay: I guess you could be right. I dont care. I would love to marry him but I am happy and thats all that matters.

Theresa: what about you charity.

Charity:me? I havent exactly had the best luck when it comes to getting married. \

Kay: nonsence. You and John are meant for eachother.

Charity: Yeah, I dont know when the time comes Ill be a reck.

Kay: what do you say, lets get away from this shop. None of us are ready for it quite yet.

Charity: one question theresa?

Theresa: what

Charity: could you see yourself with fox.

theresa: yeah I guess I could. He is a great guy and granted we are just friends and that the way it has always been but if he came on to me....... I cant guarentee I would walk away.

Kay and charity started to giggle.

*************************************************

Theresa unlocked the door and Kay and charity followed her in.

Ethan Martin was on the couch laying across Fox. He looked like he had been crying.

Fox: Its going to be alright. He's not going to hurt me. Im too tough.

Ethan M: Promise?

Fox: I promise.

Theresa: hey.

Fox: hey, Ethan why dont you go to bed. Ill be alright.

Kay: Were gonna go.

Charity: yeah, Well see you tomarrow.

theresa: hold on, Fox, what happened.

Fox: Ethan came back, he tried to get rid of me and when I wouldnt go he um... well he pulled out a gun.

Theresa: what, he tried to kill you, what happened.

Fox: Little ethan got scarred and came to rescue me. Finally he left.

Kay: Were gonna go.

Theresa: yeah, Im supposed to call him.

Kay: dont, Im going to go see if Gwen is alright. If he tried to hurt fox, he could have done the same to gwen.

Theresa: Oh my gosh, Jasmine,

Charity: No she isnt there, Jessica is babysitting.

Theresa: thats worse. If jasmine isnt there. We have to go see her.

Fox: Ill stay with Ethan Martin.

Charity: Ill stay too. im getting tired. Ill wait for you to get back.

Theresa and kay walked out the door and headed over to Gwens apartment that ethan and her bought.

Kay: thats ethans Car.

Theresa: oh no.

They walked up to the door. Sure enought, Ethan was standing inside pointing a gun at Gwen.

Gwen: PLease ethan. I know I did some bad things but do I deserve to die?

Ethan: yes, You do, If it werent for you theresa would be mine.

Gwen: Im sure you can get her back.

Theresa: No he cant.

Ethan: theresa?

Theresa: ethan, gwen isnt why I hate you. She didnt do anything.

Ethan: she did everything.

Theresa: no you did. You married gwen. She loved you, she did everything out of love. Why do you want to shoot a pregnant woman.

Ethan: its not mine.

Theresa: so, do you really blame her?

Ethan: yes I do.

Theresa: well I dont. You treat her like dirt. Even before you knew about everything she did. I admit Gwen Hotchkiss Crane is not my favorite person in the world but you never treated her like you should. You dont know how to love or be faithful.

Ethan: i never cheated on her.

Theresa: no but you never wanted her. You never fully loved either one of us and we have had to pay. No more. Gwen Isnt yours and neither am I. You will be alone, Its our turn to choose.

Ethan: what are you saying.

Theresa: Im not scared of you and I dont love you. I never really did.

Ethan droped the gun in shock.

Ethan: your lieing You love me.

Theresa: no I dont.

Kay: Ethan come here.

Ethan: Kay?

Kay: Ethan, Stay away from the gun and come here.

Theresa walked over to gwen.

Theresa: dont worry, He isnt going to hurt you.

Kay: ethan, why dont we go see dad.

Ethan: Dad?

Kay: yeah, we can take your car and we can go see dad. He's been wanting to see you.

Ethan nodded.

theresa mouthed a thank you to kay and when Ethan was getting the car, she said she would meet her at the police station.

Kay: alright, Lets go.

kay took ethan to the police station. She told sam what happened and he had no choice but to let a officer cuff him.

Ethan: You set me up!!!

Kay: No , I didnt. Dad is working tonight. He just wants to keep an eye on you.

Kay then walked outside to the car. Theresa was rocking gwen back and forth.

Kay: hey you guys alright.

Gwen: is he locked up

kay: yeah, for now but if he is let go. I dont want you or Jasmine around him.

Theresa: who's the father of the little one in here.

Gwen: I dont want to talk about it.

Kay: alright.

Theresa: why dont you stay with me.

Gwen: really?

theresa: yeah,

Gwen: alright.

***************************************

Kay woke charity up and they headed back to their house.

When they came in. Miguel and John were setting in the living room. They set down and told them the events of the day.

Miguel: well, Me and jon went looking for a house today

Kay: a house?

Jon: In case you havent noticed. Its only two bedrooms. Three if you count that little guest room, jessica stayed in.

Charity: did you find one.

Miguel: Yeah, Its amazing. And if we all put our money together. Its very affordable.

Kay: thats great.

Kay grabbed her stomach and started to giggle.

Miguel: what is it honey.

Kay: the baby is kicking.

Miguel put his hand on Kay's stomach. It was amazing. He was smiling widley.
