"You will love me Theresa and be mine. Gwen will have what she wants, and so will I." Fox said as he stood outside of Theresa's house watching her read the morning paper.
"Hey Fox!" Came a voice from behind him.
"Oh, Whitney. How are you this fine morning?" Fox asked, hoping that she hadn't been standing there long.
I am okay. I wanted to see hoe Little Ethan is doing. Isn't shocking to find out after all this time that he is Ethan's and not Julian's?" Whitney asked.
"It sure is Whit. Why don't we go say hi instead of standing out here looking like we have lost our minds or something?" And he knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" came Theresa's voice form behind the door.
"It's just me and Fox."
"Oh, come on in guys. Boy things are nuts. Rebecca was just here saying that I lied about little Ethan's parentage to try to steal the Crane millions and that now I am trying to steal Ethan away from her Gwennie. Ethan came by to see little Ethan. It was so cute, watching them spend time together." Theresa said with a smile on her face.
'Always Ethan isn't it? Well, not for too much longer my dear. Soon you will be mine.' Fox thought with a smirk on his face.
"And you must be thinking of your lady love Fox." Theresa said..
"Actually I was. I am trying to figure out when would be the right time to tell her how I feel. But enough about me. How is our little buddy?"
"Well, he is okay, a bit shaken up and worried. Eve said that he can't play too hard for the next few weeks, but right now he doesn't really have the energy anyways. He is sleeping a lot."
"I am so relieved that he is going to be okay. Do we have any clues as to who did this yet?" Whitney asked.
"None, but Luis, Sam, and Ethan said they won't stop until they find out who did it. They wanted to give us police protection, but I told them that there is no need. I am sure that there will always be someone here with us asking about little Ethan and everything."
"Well, you just be careful Theresa. I don't want anything happening to my best friend. And it sounds like the person that hit little E is a bit nuts."
They all turned as they heard a knock at the door. Theresa went over and opened the door.
"Ethan! Is there any news?"
"Not yet Theresa. I just wanted to come by and see how you and my son are doing. Wow, can you believe that? My son, it just seems so natural saying that."
"Well, we better get going. Right Fox?" Whitney said.
"Um, yeah, sure. See you later Theresa. Give Little E and hug and tell him he better hurry up and get better, I need someone to play catch with." He said trying to ruffle Ethan's feathers.
"Sure Fox. I'm sure it would enjoy that." Theresa said, oblivious to the looks passing between Ethan and fox.
Whitney and Fox left.
"Well, I guess I better get going soon myself." 'Because if I don't I won't be able to control myself.'
"I guess. Little Ethan asked if I would invite you to dinner tonight. Which I think would be a good idea. It would give you two time to bond as father and son."
"Do you think he is up for that yet Theresa? I mean he just got out of the hospital today and he seemed a nit worn out when I left earlier."
"He has been sleeping since you left. Oh Ethan, it would mean so much to him, and also myself." Theresa said with her eyes pleading for Ethan to stay.
"I guess I could. I'll be back in about 2 hours or so. Okay?"
"Okay. I hope you don't mind grilled cheese and soup. Little Ethan is supposed to eat light for the next few days."
"Sounds good to me. I'll see you soon." And he walked of the door wondering how he was going to survive being around her tonight and not touching her.

"We can't allow them to bond. Then we will never get what we want. The plan must go into action as soon as possible." Fox was talking on his cell phone.
