Chapter 18
"What are you doing right now, mom? I love it that it's official. You're gonna be my mother."
"And you're going to be my daughter. I'm talking with your father. Why?"
"Oh." Kay sounded disappointed. "I just wanted to know if you wanted to start picking things for the wedding. Like maybe the songs."
"I'd love to Kay! Let me tell your dad that I need to plan with you. I can spend time with him whenever."
Kay hugged Ivy.
"Great. We can have Chad be the DJ" Kay said all excitedly.
"That sounds great. I'll be right back." Ivy said walking away, but she stopped then. "Oh my! I forgot to tell Ethan about Sam and me." Ivy ran up to Ethan's room.
"Knock, knock!"
"Come in!" He said.
"Honey, you look so tired." Ivy said.
"I am, but I have to go over all this paper work." Ethan said showing her at least 30 papers. "What brings you here?"
"I have some great news."
"What?" Ethan said smiling.
"Sam and I are getting married. Grace and him are getting a divorce."
"Did you do something to make them want to divorce?"
"No, Ethan. It's the truth."
"Well, congratulations."
"You'll be next, Ethan."
"I hope so."
"Well, I have to go talk to your father. Now we are really going to be a family." Ivy said heading out the door.
"Mother, do you plan on adopting Jessica, Kay, and Noah?"
"I really want to." She said smiling so much.
She ran into her bedroom and found Sam still sitting on the bed.
"Honey, I'm sorry, but Kay wants me to help her plan our weddings."
"Weddings?" He asked.
"Yes. We're having a double wedding with Kay and Miguel. I hope you're not mad."
"No, but I didn't know about Kay and Miguel. I knew that they called it off before."
"Yes, but now their together again." Ivy said.
"Well that's good. I'll just go and help Jessica unpack some more than."
"Okay, sweetie."
Sam kissed Ivy and they went downstairs.
Sam went by Jessica and Ivy went by Kay.
"What song do you want to be first?" Ivy asked Kay.
"Our song called 'Shiver.'"
"Didn't they play that at Theresa's and Fox's reception?"
"Yes, Miguel had Chad play it for us."
"That's beautiful."
"Thanks, how about you and daddy?"
"I don't know yet. Do you mind helping me?" Ivy asked.
"Sure. How about this one?" Kay said putting a cd in her cd player.
Song Begins:
I never believed in dreaming, it never got me very far.
I never believed that love could find me, like an arrow through the heart.
I never believed in miracles, or building castles in the air.
Not until that day I found you, turned around and you were there.
From the day you came, you gave me, a whole new point of view.
I've been touched by an angel, it's impossible, but true.
I believe in you.
I swear that forever from today, no one will ever take your place.
I believe in you.
And I believe our love will last always.
I never believed in fairy tales, tho sometimes I wish I could,
I never believed that golden slippers could ever find the perfect foot.
I never believed in magic, or that wishes could come true,
But your very kiss changed all this, something only you could do.
You made me a believer, you made me trust again,
You showed there's a pot of gold, at every rainbow's end.
I believe in you.
I swear that forever from today, no one will ever take your place.
I believe in you.
And I believe our love will last always.
Only love, sets you free,
And if you serve to fate, then you're my destiny.
Now I know, now I see.
Anything can happen, if you just believe.
I believe in you.
I swear that forever from today, no one will ever take your place.
I believe in you.
And I believe our love will last always.
Song ends:
"That's beautiful. I think I'm going to use it. If it's okay with you?"
"Of course." Kay said smiling so happy.
The spent the rest of the night picking out other songs.
Meanwhile in Theresa's room.
"Your mother and Ethan want to help me start my own clothing company. What do you think?"
"Fox?" She asked.
"What?" He sounded very angry.
"Is something wrong?" She asked a little afraid.
"No!" He yelled at her. "You still don't get it. Do you?" He said grabbing her by her shoulders and shaking her.
"Get what, Fox?"
"Forget it!" He screamed. Then he threw Theresa on the floor. He pick up a vase full of flowers and threw them against the wall.
"Boom!"
"What the?" Everyone said once they heard noise.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Fox keep throwing things around.
"Boom! Boom!"
"Fox, stop it!" Theresa yelled.
"Don't you ever tell me to stop!" He yelled at Theresa. He pick her up and threw her on the bed.
"Smack! Smack!"
He hit Theresa. it was only his hand. Not his fist.
"Fox, how could you?" Theresa asked through a ocean of tears.
"Don't say another word. You got it?"
Theresa didn't say anything. He got angry because she didn't say nothing.
"You got it?" He asked screaming at her.
"YES!" She yelled into his ear.
"You should haven't done that, Theresa."
"Why not? I don't like you like this." She said crying even harder.
"When I get back you better have a different attitude." He warned her.
"And if not?" She asked.
"Don't ask me questions!" He yelled. His voice got louder each time.
"Smack!"
"That's what's gonna happen. Now if you leave this room, I'll hurt you. You know I better take the phone out and lock you in here."
"Fox, don't!" She said still crying.
"Smack!"
"What did I tell you."
"Not to tell you to stop." She said quietly.
"That's right." He said. He then walked out to go downstairs.
"Fox, what's going on upstairs?" Ivy asked, but Sam, Kay, Rebecca, and Jessica also wanted to know.
"We had a fight." He said.
"Sounded like a wrestling match." Rebecca said.
"Was anyone hurt?" Sam asked. "Because I heard things being thrown."
"No we're fine. I told Theresa to let out her anger by throwing things. That's what I do. It helps." Fox lied.
"Well, alright. Are you two talking still?" Ivy asked.
"Yeah. It's okay now."
"Well, good night everyone." Ivy said.
Sam followed her into her bedroom. Jessica went over to Kay's house to spend the night, and Rebecca went into Julian's room for.....well we all know what for. Fox stayed downstairs and got drunk off of Julian's brandy.
Meanwhile upstairs by Theresa......
Ethan heard them fighting. He was gonna go in there and break it up, but he knew that it wasn't his business. He heard Fox leave the room, so he went to check on Theresa.
"Theresa. It's me Ethan."He whispered.
"Go away" She said crying.
"Theresa, are you okay?"
"Yes. Leave now. Before it's too late."
"If that's what you want. I'll talk to you later then."
Ethan left Theresa alone. Fox was standing on the staircase the whole time listening to what was going on. He was pissed that Ethan always went and checked up on Theresa. Theresa would pay tonight.
"Why me, God? Why is Fox doing this? God, help us! Help, me!" Theresa told herself.
She heard the key in the door. She knew it was Fox, so she ran into he bathroom to hid from him.
"Theresa." He said entering their room.
"Theresa, you can't hid from me."
"Oh no! He has a key for the bathroom." She told herself.
He put the key in and turned it. He opened it and noticed that Theresa was afraid.
"You're afraid. That's good. You should be!" He whispered in her ear. "Come here!" He said dragging her to the bed.
"Help" She tried to scream, but he covered her mouth.
"I didn't want to have to do this, but I guess I have to." He said pulling out tape and covering her mouth.
"What are you doing right now, mom? I love it that it's official. You're gonna be my mother."
"And you're going to be my daughter. I'm talking with your father. Why?"
"Oh." Kay sounded disappointed. "I just wanted to know if you wanted to start picking things for the wedding. Like maybe the songs."
