Ch.7
"TERESA!"
Fox ran over to her and caught her as she fell.
"Resa, are you alight?"
Her eyes fluttered open. She looked up at Fox.
"Fox?" she asked groggily. "What happened?"
He helped her to her feet.
"I don't know…you were talking to Alistair…he whispered something in your ear. Then you fainted."
He brushed the hair back off of her face, looking deep into her eyes.
"What did he say?"
She looked over at Alistair, not remembering what it was.
"I don't remember," she whispered, shaking her head.
Then it hit her like a ton of bricks.
"Oh my god!" she screamed, her hand flying to her mouth, fresh tears springing to her eyes.
"What? What is it?" Fox asked concerned.
"No, it can't be true," she repeated to herself.
"Resa, what is going on?" Fox grabbed her hand. She didn't look at him.
"Alistair! What did you say to her?" Fox charged at the old man.
"Nicholas, why don't you let me and Teresa have some alone time to talk things out."
"No! Tell me what you said to her? Why is she acting like this?"
He smiled.
"That's between us," he said taking a puff of his newly lit cigar.
Fox went back to her.
"Teresa, please, talk to me."
Her head snapped up and she looked deep into his eyes.
"He's alive Fox."
"What?" Who's alive?"
She smiled, wiping the tears from her eyes.
"MY Son…our son…Little Ethan."
Fox stared at her, his heart caught in his throat.
"No," he whispered.
"Yes!" She laughed. "I knew he was alive, I could still feel him…"
Fox looked at Alistair, unsure if to believe him or not.
"Why don't we take this conversation to a different room," Alistair said. "I can't talk business when there is all this commotion."
He looked at everyone else in the room, yelling, fighting, and crying.
"We can go to the roof and talk things over."
"Let's go," Teresa said walking away.
"Wait a minute," Fox said grabbing her hand.
"Fox what are you doing?"
"Resa, are you sure about this? How do we know if he is telling the truth or not?"
"He is Fox, I know it."
"Baby, I want to believe him too…trust me…but what if this is all some trick?"
She looked over at Alistair, then back at Fox.
"We have to find out Fox…this is our son we're talking about."
He sighed, kissing her hand.
"Let's go."
They walked over to him.
"Go out that door and up the stairs," Alistair said pointing. "I'll be up there in a minute."
They left, doing as they were told.
Luis looked over.
"Where are they going? How did they get out?"
"That's not your concern Luis," Alistair said. "We have some business to discuss in private…we'll return shortly."
"And you're just going to keep us in here while you're gone?" Sam asked.
"Well I do have another secret to share that will keep you occupied until we're done."
Everyone grew silent as he looked around the room.
He saw him, his eyes fixated. An evil smile danced upon his lips.
"Ohhh, this is a doozy," he said laughing.
He coughed.
"Chad Harris."
Chad's eyes glared at him.
"Nice try Alistair…but you got nothing on me."
"On the contrary," he said. "I happen to know all the answers to you're biggest questions…all the truths you've been searching for over the years."
"What are you talking about?"
"Well why did you come to Harmony in the first place Chad?"
"I wanted to find my parents."
"Bingo." Alistair laughed. "Well search no more, because the lovely couple just happens to be here tonight."
He blinked.
"What?"
"That's right Chad…you're parents are in this room…they're people that you've known all along…and tonight, I'm going to share it with you."
Whitney squeezed his hand.
"Oh my god," She whispered.
Chad's eyes were blurry with tears.
"Tell me," he said, his voice small like a child's. "Who are they?"
Alistair smiled.
"TC Russell, and Ivy Crane."
