Realization

Sitting in her hospital room after giving birth to the babies, Theresa smiles as she looks over at the two bassinets in the room. Getting out of bed slowly, Theresa looks from Audrey to Nicholas. "My beautiful babies. You are so precious to me." As she stares at her son, she starts to notice something.

"My baby boy. You look so much like your older brother. But, how is that possible? Ethan Martin is Julian's son....isn't he?" Sitting back on her bed, Theresa begins to think....

Flashback 1

"Theresa, I want you so much."

"Make love to me, Ethan. I need you."

"We can't. You told your mother you would wait."

"Until our wedding day, Ethan. But our wedding day is today!"

"You're right, it is. Are you sure this is what you want?"

"More than anything."

Present

"Dear god, we didn't have any condoms that night. I was on the pill, but is it possible that I wasn't on the pill long enough? Could Ethan Martin really be Ethan's son?"

Looking again at her newborn son, Theresa still notices the resemblance of Nicholas to Little Ethan. "They look identical, as though they were twins! Oh, God, this has to be true. It has to mean that Ethan is the father of all three of my children."

Putting Nicholas down, Theresa then takes her daughter into her arms. "My baby girl. You look so much like me. There is no way that this could be Gwen's daughter. You have my hair and eyes...Does that mean that I really did loose Gwen's embryo? If so..then these are both my children DNA wise and every other way possible. God, Thank you..thank you for giving me these babies."

After she puts the twins back into their bassinets, Theresa lies in bed and thinks.

Flashback 2

"How could you do this, Theresa? You tricked me into sleeping with you."

"I did what I had to do to get Little Ethan back, Ethan. Don't you understand that?"

"The babies you're carrying could be ours, Theresa."

"IF they are, then so be it. It's meant to be."

"God, Theresa, get off your Fate notions already. Fate is not in the cards for us! We're not supposed to be together!"

Present

"If fate didn't want us together, Ethan, then how is it that now we'll forever have a bond between us because of our babies?"

Coming up

Ethan gets a letter from Theresa!
