Chapter 6 - Mending Friendship & Broken Hearts

Theresa didn't know what to do, she knew that leaving Ethan like that all dumbfounded and all was funny. But she had to get away; she didn't know why she didn't tell him the truth that she had slept with him while Gwen was away on a business trip. She knew what she had to do she was going to go to Gwen tonight and tell her the truth. She knew how she was going to react. But she was willing to take that risk. She didn't want to live with these lies anymore. She had hail down a cab and got in.

"Where to miss!" Said the cab driver.

He reeked of cigars and alcohol "To the Crane Mansion please

"O.k.!" nodded the cab driver in response

In no time they had arrived at the Crane Mansion. Theresa paid the cab driver and embraced herself because what she was about to do would tear Ethan and Gwen apart but she didn't want to do that. She wanted Gwen to know the truth so that they could be friends. She wanted to mend their friendship not destroy it. She casually walked up the steps of the house and starts to knock on the door when it suddenly flew open.

"Theresa, What are you doing here?" yelled Gwen quite annoyed with Theresa presence

"I think we need to talk Gwen!" said Theresa

"About what, is the baby o.k?" asked Gwen

"It's fine, I think we should go inside"

"O.k. Come on in, I was just on my way to find Ethan! Smiled Gwen as she closed the door "So Theresa what is it you want to talk to me about?" asked Gwen standing with her arms across her chest.

"I know that we have been on the best of terms, I want you to know the truth everything comes out tonight here!" said Theresa

Theresa took a deep breath, she was going to have to take the backlash from Gwen she knew that Gwen had a temper and when she was pissed off you didn't want to be around her. "Gwen, Please sit down," said Theresa as she patted the couch seat next to her

"What is she up to?" thought Gwen "Is she trying to weasel her way back into Ethan life, Well I won't let her

Gwen did as she was told and sat next to Theresa; Theresa took another breath and sighed

"You will not like what I am about to tell you," said Theresa as she took Gwen hands in to hers "Gwen I hope that we would be able to mend our friendship, I know that the things that I have done to you are unforgivable. And that I don't deserve your friendship and if you don't want to be friends with me then I would totally understand I just wanted you to know that...." Said Theresa as she looked down

"What is it Theresa" as she look at her archenemy who's feelings was truly genuine. This wasn't the same old scheming, conniving, and manipulative Theresa. There was something different about her

"Gwen, you have to understand that I was desperate in getting little Ethan back that I was willing to do anything, I apologize for locking up your surrogate in the closet and getting implanted with your eggs" said Theresa

"Is that all."? Said Gwen "It's o.k. Theresa I think that if I was put in you predicament I would have done the same thing" smiled Gwen

"No that is not it either, Gwen I slept with Ethan while you were away on your business trip" said Theresa

She waited for the screams for the punches to come but it didn't she saw the look on Gwen's face it was the look of shock of horror Theresa decided to continue "Gwen, let me tell you Ethan called your name all night, I drugged him, he didn't know that he was sleeping with me don't blame him blame me!" said a sad Theresa

"What!" yelled Gwen "Theresa I knew....." As she got up from her seat and paced around the room "I knew you were evil, but to drug my husband, Theresa what the hell were you thinking!" yelled Gwen

"I was thinking about my SON, and how much I wanted him back!" yelled Theresa

"But you had our embryo, Theresa you were pregnant with our baby, me and Ethan's!" said Gwen

"No, Gwen I had a miscarriage, I am sorry Gwen" she said as she walked up to Gwen "I wanted so desperately to get little Ethan back, I didn't care how I was going to do it but I was going to get my son back at all cost he was all that matter in my life!" Theresa said, "Gwen That's not all!

"Please Theresa tell me more, break my heart into a million pieces, how could you do this to me!" yelled Gwen through tears

"What else more is there?' yelled Gwen "Gwen I saw Ethan tonight, he kissed me!" said Theresa as she smiled

"Oh god can this night get any worse, what he's leaving me for you now Theresa go take him you won!" she spat "I am done chasing him!" she cried

Theresa walked over to where Gwen had fallen' down and held her "Gwen I felt nothing!" she said

"Have you gone mad Theresa!" said Gwen as she looked up

"No!" smiled Theresa "I felt nothing at all!" she smiled

"What is that supposed to mean Theresa!" spat Gwen

"Don't you see I use to feel Fireworks, sparks when I kissed Ethan tonight I felt nothing I don't love him anymore Gwen!" she smiled "He is all yours, I give you my word that I am not going to chase Ethan anymore!' laughed Theresa

"How am I supposed to believe you!" said Gwen

"Because I am in love with Fox!" she said sadly "Gwen I came here tonight to mend our friendship, start over fresh!" she said as she took Gwen's hand into hers "Will you forgive me?" she looked deep into Gwen's eyes

Gwen saw something in Theresa eyes that she never saw before sadness, lost, when she use to talk about Ethan her eyes were filled with love now it was filled with nothing. Maybe she wasn't in love with him anymore, maybe she was telling the truth.

"So your in love with Fox?" said Gwen then Gwen saw it the spark in her eyes, it lit up at the mention of Fox's name. Gwen had her answer; Theresa had finally given up on Ethan. The fight was over; there was no reason to hate her anymore. Even with the fact that she drugged her husband and slept with him. Hell she would have done the same thing if she were in Theresa's shoes. Any women would to get their kid back. She had decided then and there that she was going to mend the friendship between her and Theresa. The fight was finally over. True Theresa was carrying Ethan child. Gwen could live with that, she decided that she was going to give little Ethan back to Theresa. It's the least she can do after all the things that she had done to her also.

"Gwen!" said Theresa

As she broke out of her thoughts

"Gwen are you o.k.?" said Theresa

"Yea, I am fine!" smiled Gwen "Theresa I forgive you, I want us to be friends" she smiled "You know it takes a lot of courage to come in the lions den and confess something like that!" She smiled "I am glad that you decided to be honest with me!" she said "So tell me, what is going on with you and Fox!

"Nothing....." Said Theresa as she began to tell Gwen her story

"YOU!" said Fox "I thought you left!" yelled Fox

"Oh what you got a new profession now Fox, the headlines would love that FORMER CRANE PLAYBOY TURNED STALKER! The tabloids would eat that up" laughed Ethan

"Shut up, Ethan!" yelled Fox "Actually people are still talking about how you are Ivy's and Sam Bennett bastard son, being passed off as a Crane!

"Why you!" yelled Ethan

"What, Ethan?" asked Fox "The truth hurts" smiled Fox

"Nothing, I have to find...." said Ethan

"Theresa...." Said Fox as he finish his sentence for him

" That is none of your concern" spat Ethan

"Yes it is, don't you have a wife at home that need taking care of?" said Fox "Leave Theresa and me alone!" yelled Fox

"Leave you alone, YOU ARE THE REASON SHE RAN OFF!" yelled Ethan

"WHAT!

"YOU! FOX , don't play stupid with me!

"What are you talking about Ethan!" asked Fox

"You, I warned her about you, how you would break her heart, how you was a playboy" said Ethan

"What Ethan spill it!" yelled Fox he knew the answer he just wanted to hear it come out of Ethan's mouth

"She's in love with you!" said Ethan in a small voice

"What?

"I SAID THERESA IS IN LOVE WITH YOU!" yelled Ethan finally exasperated

"Oh the prince has fallen, looky here" said Fox as he toyed with his emotion. "So Ethan how does it feel!

"What are you talking about?

"I am talking about all the times that you strung Theresa along, all the time she told you she loved you and all you did was shove her in the dirt!" he said "How does it fell Princy boy!" laughed Fox

Fox started to walk away, to find Theresa so that he can explain to her that she was the one that he had loved.

"YOUR NO DIFFERENT CRANE!" spat Ethan

"What are you talking about?

"Tonight when she came to you, she was going to tell you that she loved that she wanted to mend your relationship, but you were off screaming to the world that you were in love with Whitney Russell!" laughed Ethan "So who is the fool now, Theresa vow not to get in between you and Whitney, she leaving FOX, I have lost her and so have you!

Fox thought about what Ethan said was it true had he lost her.
