"The Father of Little Ethan is..."
At that very moment, Nurse Michelle burst in the room.
"Dr. Russell, we need you in Mr. Winthrop's room stat!" she exclaimed, exhausted.
"Oh dear! I'm sorry, but this will have to wait," she said to Fox and Theresa, before running out of the room to follow Nurse Michelle.
"God, I want to know if Little Ethan is my son or not. I hope Ethan is all right, but I would have liked to have known before she left whether he was mine or not! It's killing me!" he exclaimed.
Theresa nodded. "I understand how you feel. I really hope Little Ethan is yours Fox. I really do," she said, hugging him.
Fox hugged her back. "I know you Resa, I know."
They stood there like that, holding each other tightly.
*$*$*$*$*$*$*$*$*$*$*
Eve checked over Ethan's stats. He was slipping into a coma.
"Oh dear, this isn't good at all. If he does go into a coma, he may never come out," she said to herself.
*~*~*~*~*~*
Fox and Theresa waited patiently in Eve's office. She had left the results sitting on the table.
"Theresa, I really want to know! I'm going to look at them," he said, reaching for the results.
But Theresa stopped him.
"No Fox, we can't. We'll just have to wait for Dr. Russell," Theresa said, pulling Fox's hand back.
"I hate waiting, Theresa. I need to know if he is my son. I can't stand the not knowing. I just can't stand it!" he yelled, slamming his hand on the wall.
Theresa went up to Fox and wrapped her arms around him.
"Calm down. It's going to be okay. We'll know anytime now. Just please calm down. For me, okay?"
Fox relaxed, and nodded. "For you, I'd do anything," he said, smiling.
Theresa laughed. "You're quite the ladies man, and a charmer, Fox."
"Yes, but you're the only lady I need," he said as he kissed her upon the lips.
"Ahem," Dr. Russell said, re-entering the room.
Fox and Theresa broke apart.
"Sorry, Dr. Russell," Fox said.
Eve smiled. "That's quite alright. Anyway, I have some bad news about Ethan. He is slipping into a coma, and if he does, there is a change he might not come out of it," she said.
Theresa was overcome with sadness. True, she didn't love him anymore, but still, she cared for him deeply. She never wanted to see him die or go into a coma for that matter. He was in there fighting for his life, while she was in here about to find out the father of her baby with the man she loved more than anything in the entire world. It just didn't seem fair that her life was finally beginning to look up while his was going down the drain.
"That's terrible. I mean, I don't particularly like my half-brother, but I don't want him to die either," he said.
Eve nodded. "Well, I've made you wait long enough. Now remember, the results are 99.9% accurate, understood?"
Fox and Theresa nodded.
"Okay, then. The father of Little Ethan is...Fox," she said, smiling.
Fox picked up Theresa, and swung her around.
"I'm a father! I'm a father!" he exclaimed happily, putting Theresa down.
Theresa jumped with excitement. She hugged Fox tightly.
"I've never been so happy in my entire life," she squealed with joy.
Eve quietly slipped out of the room, as to give them a moment alone.
"Neither have I!" he exclaimed. "This is the best day of my life! I have a son and the most beautiful.." Fox stopped.
Theresa looked at Fox strangely. "What is it?"
"Theresa, there's something I need to ask you. I've wanted to be with you since the day I layed eyes on you. I knew at that moment, that you were the one for me. And I know that you've been asked this enough times to last a lifetime, and I know that Ethan hurt you and that he promised to love you and be with you forever, but he didn't. I know all this, but I want you to know, that I'm not like Ethan. In fact, I pride myself on being the exact opposite of Ethan. And what I mean to say is, I'll never hurt you or leave you. You are everything to me, Theresa, and I want to grow old with you, I want to live the rest of my life with you, so I'm hoping you will say yes when I ask you this," Fox said, taking a small velvet box out of his pocket. He got down on his knees.
"Theresa Lopez-Fitzgerald, will you marry me?" he asked.
Tears over flooded her eyes, and started cascading down her tanned cheeks.
"Yes, Fox, I'll marry you," she said, crying.
Fox slipped the diamond ring on her finger and swung her around.
"You've made me the happiest man alive!" he exclaimed happier than he had ever been.
"Now, this day IS the best day of my life. It truly is," he said.
Theresa nodded through tears. "As it is mine too, Fox. Mine too," she said wrapping her arms around his neck and pulling him into a deep kiss.
*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*
*Outside Eve's Office*
"I don't think so, Theresa. I want you, and if I can't have you, No one can," a voice said.
TBC!
Whose this person?
Will Ethan live or die?
Something Terrible happens! What is it?
To find out, you'll have to wait for the next chapter^_^
A/N: This is the shortest chapter, sorry :( I wanted to make it longer, but my idea wouldn't be as good if I had went on and on in this chapter! Anyway, please review^_^ Next chapter will be much better, and my idea will come into play^_^
