Chapter 1

"Hey Fox" Theresa said opening the door. "Hi is Katelyn ready?" He asked as he stepped into the apartment. "Katelyn your father is here" She called. The little girl walked out of her bedroom, Strawberry Shortcake bag slung over her shoulder, she greeted her father with a kiss. "Hi daddy" Fox picked up his daughter in his arms. "Hello princess" He smiled. "Have a great time sweetheart. Bye Fox" Theresa waved as they drove away in Fox's black, Nissan Maxima. Oh Fox I have fallen in love with you why can't you just see that, Theresa thought as she sat on the leather couch. Things for them had gone down hill. Both wanted a relationship, and told each other they were over the people they loved. Theresa was over Ethan and fox was over his mystery woman.

But that didn't quite work out the way they planned. They were both still in love with other people. Then they had that one night where he stayed over, the night before her family was evicted form their house. They hadn't intended for anything to happen. But it did. They had made love to one another and that lead to Theresa getting pregnant. Theresa had let Fox be apart of the whole pregnancy experience. But after the baby was born Fox and her had split the custody. It was now 5 years later, Fox fell out of love with his mystery woman and Theresa fell out of love with Ethan after he took his child from her.

The phone began to ring and Theresa rushed to pick it up. "Hello?" "Hey Theresa it's Fox. Katelyn and I were wondering if you'd like to join us for dinner tonight?" "Are you sure Fox? I don't want to impose on..." She never got to finish the sentence because he cut her off. "Yes I'm sure. I'll pick you up in an hour" He said. "Ok bye" "Bye" Theresa hung up the phone and placed it back on the charger. She walked to her room and walked over to her closet. I have to find the perfect dress, she told herself, I want to take Fox's breath away. It was now 7:15 and Fox had just arrived at Theresa's home. "Sweetie come on with me." He said to his tiny, angelic daughter. He unbuckled her car seat and took her out. He walked up the pathway, Red roses in one hand and his daughter on his hip. He rang the doorbell and when she opened the door he felt like he was floating in heaven. Theresa looked so beautiful standing there in a black skirt that ended at her knees and a pink, dressy tank top.

She looked so sexy, hot, beautiful. There were hundreds of words to describe how she looked. "These are for you" Fox said handing her the dozen red roses. Red means love. Maybe he loves me, Theresa thought smiling. "Thanks so much. Let me just put these in water. Please come in" She said. She walked to the kitchen and placed the roses in water. Theresa walked back to the kitchen and was met by such a beautiful site. Fox was sitting on the couch, Katelyn pressed against his chest, the two had their eyes closed. "Fox" She called softly. When he didn't answer, she took Katelyn out of his arms and headed down to the little girls room. Theresa undressed her daughter and slipped on her Strawberry Shortcake pajamas. "Goodnight sweetie" She whispered. "Night mom" Katelyn mumbled and fell back into dreamland.

Theresa walked back into the living room and noticed that Fox has shifted onto his side and his body was now stretched out on the couch. She stared at him and smiled. She walked over to him and gently shook him. "Fox, wake up" He stirred in his sleep. "Theresa?" He asked. "yeah it's me. Come on get up. Go and sleep in the spare room." Fox got up and walked upstairs and down the hall to the guest room, he was still half a sleep. He slid off his shoes, his jeans and took of his shirt. Fox was now clad in a pair of boxers. He slid into bed and buried his face in the pillow. He soon fell into a deep sleep. Meanwhile, Theresa was in the room just down the hall. God how am I ever going to fall asleep when the man I love, the father of my child, is sleeping just down the hall Theresa thought to herself. Hours later she fell asleep, dreaming of her, Fox and their daughter.
