Reflecting

(A/N: Thank you all for being very patient waiting for this chapter. I'm sorry it's short, but there will be more to come, have no fear.)

As Theresa sits in her hotel room, she rubs her stomach, thinking of the future. "My babies. While you may not have been created in a perfect love, you still were created by a love I have for your father. That is assuming that both of you are mine and Ethan's. If one of you is Gwen's child, I don't know what I'm going to do."

"I mean, she stole my child away from me! Little Ethan is my son, and now he's calling her mommy. It isn't right. I'm doing what I have to do. If one of you is Gwen's child, I can never let her know that. I need to keep both of you. You're the only children I seem to have left in the world."

Theresa begins to cry as she thinks of her lost son. Wiping away her tears fiercely, she mutters, "damn hormones." And then begins to fall asleep.

Theresa's dream

"Mommy, mommy, look what I made you!"

"Oh, baby, it's so beautiful!"

Suddenly, as Theresa is about to hug her child, she sees that it is pulling away from her.

"You're not my mommy, anymore. She is!" The child points to Gwen.

"Face it, Theresa, you lost, and I won." Gwen says with a smirk on her face.

"NO!!!!" Theresa yells as she sits up in bed from her dream. "Dear God, how can I give these babies away? I just can't!"

Calming herself down, Theresa once again looks at her burgeoning belly. "God help me, but I can't give my babies up. You're in my stomach, we have a bond, I can feel it. Please God, tell me what to do."

Meanwhile, back in Harmony

Ethan is sitting in his and Gwen's bedroom, and pulls out a picture from his wallet of Theresa.

"I don't even know why I kept this picture, but I did. Theresa, what are you doing now? I know how you must feel knowing that Little Ethan is calling Gwen "mommy", but did that give you the right to take away her babies? God, what if..."

Ethan pauses as he remembers the night he and Theresa made love, where she confessed all to him afterward. "Those babies can't be ours, Theresa. It's impossible....or is it?"

Coming Up

Theresa gives birth to the Twins!
