Chapter 2—Surprises Await
As Ethan is driving, he starts thinking of the events that have happened. "How could my own mother have lied to me about who my father was? Moreover, how could Theresa, the woman I love, have known all along the truth and never told me?"
(Meanwhile..at the cabin)
"God, it's so cold outside. It's even colder in here." Theresa starts talking aloud to herself as she gets a fire started. "Thank god there's some wood and food here." After Theresa finishes the fire, she makes herself some tea and sits on the couch.
"I miss Ethan so much. How could he think I sent the tabloid of all things the information of his parentage? Doesn't he realize that I love him? How could he just throw our relationship out the window without knowing the facts?"
"Maybe because I was scared and hurt." A voice suddenly interrupts Theresa's thoughts.
Theresa turns around on the couch startled, as she looks at the man she loves. "Ethan."
"Yeah. What are you doing here?"
"Umm..well...I wanted to get away from everything. But since you're here, I should leave since this is your family's cabin, not mine." Theresa gets up and starts to leave the room when Ethan comes behind her and puts his hand on her shoulder.
"No, you don't have to go. The roads are getting bad anyway with the snow storm coming up. You can stay here."
"You don't want to have a thing to do with me, Ethan, why should I stay when it'll just make both our lives miserable?" Theresa asks as she faces away from Ethan.
She hears Ethan sigh, and then, "Theresa, I'm sorry. I'm just very confused right now."
"Yeah, Ethan, I know. It's all my fault, and it's all the more reason why I need to leave."
Before Ethan can protest again, Theresa makes a quick run into her bedroom and starts gathering her things. "God, that woman is so stubborn. Duh, Ethan, that's why you love her. Do I really love her still? She lied to me! Maybe she had a reason, Ethan, didn't you ever think of that? Maybe she had her reasons why she had to lie to you about this." Ethan is having a struggle over what to do with himself, while Theresa continues to pack.
"God, if this is your fate working, it's not very funny!" Theresa starts talking as she continues to pack.
While Ethan is in the living room, he finally realizes that he needs Theresa more than life himself, and so decides to convince her to stay. He knocks at her bedroom door.
"What do you want, Ethan?"
"I want you...to stay, Theresa." Ethan gets caught up in his words as a rush of desire sweeps through him "Stay strong, Ethan, you need to be strong and fight for your relationship with Theresa" he says to himself.
Theresa suddenly opens the door, which surprises Ethan. "Give me one good reason why I should, seeing that you hate my guts and want nothing to do with me!" Theresa yells at Ethan.
"Fine, you want a reason? Here it is" Thinking quickly, Ethan grabs Theresa into his arms and kisses her fiercely.
Feeling lost in the passion, Theresa grabs onto Ethan with all her might. "God, how can I still feel this way despite the hurt? I love Ethan so much. What are we going to do?"
"God, I love Theresa so much. She is so passionate with me. How could I feel this way knowing what I know?"
Theresa slowly ends the kiss as she catches her breath. "I'm sorry."
"No, no need to apologize. We both wanted and needed that."
"Yeah, but that still doesn't solve anything for us."
Ethan takes a deep breath. "Then, let's go sit on the couch and really talk about all this. Because if that kiss was any indication, I'm not ready to give up on you, or us."
"And I'm not ready to give up on us either, Ethan. I love you still so much."
"And I love you, Theresa." They hug close and then decide to begin working out their problems.
