~Chapter 13~

Ethan finally finished his shower by himself, when he walked out, he saw Lindsey picking up her dress from last night and putting in a bag. She was in a pair of Ethan's cloths; her brown curly hair was in a large clip. He watched her for a while. She picked up every trace of her in the room and tried to put it in her bag. The sight of her doing this sent his mind to other times.

~Ethan had walked out his office into his room to find Theresa cleaning it. He had stood in the door way and watched her cleaning to the music, "The right kind of wrong." Gwen had been out to town and Theresa and him were not talking. I did not matter. Just to watch her was enough.

"You're worried about, about your reputation and now it's about to be a heart break situation but I can't help if I'm helpless when I'm with you…."  She turned down every picture of Gwen with disgust.

Even in her anger, she was moving her hips to the music and signing. She was so beautiful. ~

"Say my name and I can't fight it anymore…" Lindsey's voice broke his thoughts. There were those hips moving again and that voice. "I know I should go but I need your touch just too *amn much."

~"Loving you isn't something, I should do. I shouldn't wan to spend my time with you." She was leaving. He knew she was going to leave but looking at her now, he did not care~

"I should try to be strong but baby you're the right kind of wrong." She took the shawl her arms and almost cried. The memories, he could tell, were killing her all over again

~She picked up the bear and she let a tear fall. "They say your something I should be with out…"~

"But they don't know what goes in when the lights go out." She put the shawl in with the dress. "The pleasure is worth all the pain."

~"I should try to run but I can't seem to …" He couldn't take it any longer. "Theresa…"~

"Theresa…" She turned to face him. "Cause every time I run I run to you…"

~She faced him and all her anger and pain left. "I don't care…"~

"If I'm in too deep." She was in his harms again and he was in her but he knew just like she did before she was going to leave. "You're worried about your reputation…"

~"And now it's about to be a heart break situation…."~

Ivy put down the sponge and sank down into the chair. Sam was already there and he was acting like he was asleep. He was not fooling Ivy. "That's not going to work." He did not move. "Samuel Bennett!" She screamed.

He jumped up. "Where's the fire?"

She laughed.  "First I'm stupid and second acting was never a strong suit of yours."

"Man, you harsh."

She laughed. "Well one of us has to be, you softy."

"So what's going up there?"

"As entertaining as our son's little soap opera is, I want to know one why you're here. Two does Grace know? And three is like at home so bad that you are willing to clean with me?"

He groaned. "I'm here because Charity's crying, I don't know if she knows and yes."

She frowned. "What's wrong with Charity?"

"I don't know and to tell you the truth I don't care. Grace is all over her and it's annoying."

"She her niece isn't she suppose to care about her?"

"Not to the point of obsession and that's where it is. She never even looks at Jessica and Kay well she blames her for everything that has gone wrong with Charity. Its nuts."

"And this just started?"

"No, I've just started noticing it. I have just started realizing a lot. When you an David were trying to us we could use you two as the excuse but now…"

"Now you're realized that we were just the icing on an already bad cake?"

"Yes, I guess. I do not know what to do though. I promised her I would never leave her."

"You don't think you can fix it?"

"I don't think she wants me to."

"But you still love her?"

"Yes, but some times love just isn't enough."

Noah, Simone, Jessica and Reese were sitting on the couch in the Bennett house. "You try." Jessica said.

"I'm not going anywhere near them. It's to weird." Noah said. "Reese?"

He shook his head. "I'm not facing them again. I didn't promise to deal with them when I married Jessica."

They looked at Simone. She put her hands up. "No, don't even think about it. I agree with Reese. No where is my wedding vows did I promise to try to fix these type of problems."

"So what do we do? Noah, we can't just leave mom and Charity here."

"Who says we can't? I see we go see Kay and Miguel and leave them two to do what eve they are doing."

They heard a scream and they all looked at each other. "Let's go!"
