Chapter 8
Theresa walked back in the living room area, Little Ethan at her heels.
She watched as the Ethan Martin walk over to Candela who had quit cry, but was still holding her leg. "I'm sorry, Candy. I never meant to hurt you, will you forgive me?"
She nodded. "Yeah, I - I guess."
Theresa stood there watching her son, she hated seeing him like this, she knew he was hurting, she knew that even though he didn't let on that the bruise and cuts he had on his stomach, hurt him.
"Theresa, are you okay?", Fox asked walking up behind her catching her off guard.
"Yeah, It's not like him you know, he'd never hurt a fly much less Candy, he's just…", Theresa began.
"Repeating what he's seen.", Fox asked.
"What?", she asked.
"Has Ethan been beating you?", he asked, lifting hr chin so she was looking directly in his eyes.
"What? Of course not.", she lied, tuning from him and looking over at her son. 'Don't borrow trouble, Fox, please, God let him quit asking me this, I can't keep lying to him, he knows me to good for me to lie to him and get away with it.'
"Okay, if you say so, but Theresa, kids do intent to do and say what they hear at home.", Fox told her, she looked at him, she couldn't tell him at least not now, after she became pregnant then she could tell him, then he protect her, where did she have to go? Fox still had Whitney, even if it was just living arrangements, nothing else and her mother, no she refused to let her mother or her brother's namely Luis involved.
"Maybe he saw it on TV or something.", Theresa suggested hoping to throw his suspicion off Ethan and the truth.
"Maybe.", Fox told her, he wasn't convinced, but decide for now to let it go, he knew Theresa would eventually tell him the truth and if what he suspected was true, he'd make his brother wish he was feet under.
"So, have you thought about how and when you're going to tell Whitney about us? You know I think, well I hope and pray that you uh, well I hope I'm pregnant and if I am, I would love it if I could be with you during the whole experiment.", she told him, in hopes to distract him and she still wanted to know the answer to this question, it had been running through her head all morning.
"Well, I'm going to tell her the minute I hear from your lips or a doctors lips that you're pregnant, and I'm going to tell her the truth that I'm in love with you and I- We are expecting our first child and that I want to be with you, and that I'm sorry for the pain she has and will indoor at my hand.", he explained.
"Fox, I - Ethan and Whit ain't going to like this, what if…", she trailed off.
"Nothing or no one will keep you and this child away from me and as for my children and Ethan Martin, I plan on going for at least joint custody and if Whit don't like it too bad, same goes for grandfather, father, Rebecca and Ethan, Theresa I'm not going to let either Candela, Makita or Ethan be abandoned. And, I will never treat my kids better than Ethan Martin, I will love him just as if he is mine biologically, I will never hurt him, because it will be like hurting apart of the woman I love.", he told her, he wanted to clear something up and figured now was as good as anytime to do so.
Theresa smiled. "I know, Fox you're a good man, and I will never treat Ethan and our child no better or no worse than the girls."
"I know.", he kissed her lips softly.
"Mommy.", Ethan Martin interrupted.
"Are you and Fox dating?", he asked, he was 8 and didn't see nothing wrong with them dating, he hated Ethan anyways and would like nothing more than for him to be removed out of there life.
Fox looked at the boy, Fox smirked to himself, if the boy was ever going to know he figured now would be as good as time as ever.
"Ethan, we need to talk.", Fox told him, Theresa looked at hi, was he going ot tell the kids, didn't he want to tell Whitney and Ethan before them.
She looked at Candela, who sit on the couch, her thoughts consumed by the TV.
Fox walked in the kitchen the little boy and Theresa were at his heels, Theresa looked at him and let out a sigh, this was it, it was the day, she'd wait so long for, she knew deep down inside that Ethan Martin would be thrilled, he loved Fox after all, and he would soon be free from Ethan.
"Ethan, I…", Fox began.
"I knew it mama and you are dating.", The boy smiled and so did Theresa.
Fox smiled down at him. "Yup, buddy we are."
"So when do we move in mommy?", Ethan Martin asked.
"Soon, baby, right now we've go a few things to take care of.", Theresa told him.
"Whitney and Ethan, right, you got to tell them, then we can be a family, you ,me, Candy and Kita and mommy, right Fox?", Ethan Martin asked.
"Yeah, but, for now it's our little secret, okay buddy.", Fox told him.
"Why, can't I tell Candy, she'll be thrilled…", Ethan Martin began.
"Ethan, please we'll tell her in our time in our way.", Theresa told him.
"Mommy…", Ethan Martin began.
"It's a surprise, okay, Candy and Makita will be surprise and you can help us surprise them even more, if you don't tell them, besides if you keep the secret it will show mommy and me just how much of a grown up you are.", Fox told him.
The boy nodded. "It will won't it?", he asked, smiling to himself.
"Yup.", Theresa smiled at Fox, she wished that she could tell everyone tonight, for she feared what Ethan would do to her tonight, he might kill the baby as soon as it was conceived, she shook her head free of those thoughts.
Ethan Martin smiled at them, then turned his heel to leave. "I'm going go watch TV with Candy, I ain't going to tell her, you can trust me."
"Fox, you think we did the right thing, by telling him?", Theresa asked.
"Yup, we did, I don't think he'll tell anyone, he wants us to be a family did you hear that Theresa? He wants me you, the girls and him to be a family.", Fox told her.
"Yeah, well, he loves you, and well he knows you're a good man, who he trusts with him mama.", she smiled at him.
"I figured he'd be mad or at least sad I mean, I thought he loved Ethan and was happy with the home you and Ethan have?", Fox asked.
"You're his favorite person, he loves and admired you.", Theresa told him.
"Well, that's a first no one has ever chose me over Ethan. I've always been second best to him.", Fox told her.
"Well you are not second best in my eyes, Ethan isn't half the man you are. He isn't the man I want to spend the rest of my life with you are.", she told him, she could see the love for her in his eyes.
"For once, I know that someone ain't just saying that, for once I know you mean it.", he told her.
"Why wouldn't I mean it, I told you along time ago, that I love you and no one would ever measure up to you in my eyes. That you're the man I want to spend forever with.", she told him.
"And, after that, I don't know - I thought, Resa, I married Whitney like two days after that and you married Ethan, I had kids by her, you…", he began, she placed her finger over his lips silencing him.
"What's done is done, Fox we can't change it. Okay, but know this, I never ever loved him like I do you.", she placed her finger under his chin and lift his eyes to were they were looking in hers.
"I never will love anyone like you, you are my best friend, my rock, the man I love and I would never ever be able to replace you, you are my soul mate, and I am yours. You said it best once, we are kindred sprits.", he looked at for a moment, then caught her lips in a heated kiss.
"I still ain't got no work done.", he told her.
"And, I don't think you are, that is if I have anything to say about it.", she told him, her fingers running along the top button on his shirt.
"I swear you're going to be the death of me.", he told her, scooping her up in his arms.
"Now, that wouldn't be so bad would it?", she asked.
Ethan sat there disgusted, he'd instilled camera's all in the cottage, he found some of the things that went on there right out disgusting, such as Whitney and her nightly seduction or should it be attempt seduction of her husband.
Ethan let out a laugh, Whitney was definitely worse than her mother ever could be, he was almost certain that she was bedding Chad Harris and she came to him at least once a week, sometimes two.
He looked on and watched as his wife and brother committed adultery together, while there kids sit in the next room being occupied by some pathetic cartoon.
"That a boy Fox, fk her, get her pregnant as much as you want, the fact still remains, she is mine and she will never carry my brother's bastard child.", he let out a laughed then turned to his secretary.
"Gwen, make love to me.", he told her, Gwen smiled, she liked how things had turned out she had divorced Ethan and married Noah, Ethan's hot brother, but she still got to have hottie hot sex with Ethan. She was really liking the man he had became, he was like fire and he was forceful even in love making.
He threw her down on his desk and tore away her black fabric of her dress, take his mouth he nibbled at her neck, then he forced himself in her wet center causing her to let out a scream, it wa a scream of somewhere between ecstasy and sheer pain.
A/N: couldn't resist adding Gwen to the mix, and Noah I ain't about to leave him out, by the time this is over someone important to the story will be dead? But, the question is who?
Theresa walked back in the living room area, Little Ethan at her heels.
She watched as the Ethan Martin walk over to Candela who had quit cry, but was still holding her leg. "I'm sorry, Candy. I never meant to hurt you, will you forgive me?"
