Chapter 7
"Oh Fox" Theresa moaned.
Fox looked up and could see the pleasure written all over her face. He didn't want to do anything but give her pleasure and she didn't want to so anything but give him pleasure.
All of a sudden the door opened and Dr Russell walked in.
Fox and Theresa were so caught up in the moment that they didn't notice her.
"OH MY GOD!" shouted Eve.
Fox and Theresa looked up and noticed that they weren't alone. Fox sighed and got off of Theresa. He began to put on his belt and shirt while Theresa zipped her dress back up and tried to make herself look presentable.
"I can't believe that you two would be doing this here of all places. Everyone has been looking for you for the past half hour, Theresa. I never would have imagined that you'd be in here with Fox and in the position you were in." Eve said still reeling in shock from what she had seen.
"Does that mean that the results are in Dr. Russell? Are the twins mine?" Theresa asked eagerly.
"Not quite Theresa; and I can't say. You see, results of one of the twins are in, but the second one is a bit more complicated. That's why I'm here. I'm trying to figure something out. That's also why I can't reveal the results of the tests with you. I need everyone involved in this whole ordeal to be present when I do."
"What do you mean by the second one being a bit more complicated? They aren't sick or anything, are they?"
"Theresa, honey, calm down. I'm sure that if they were sick Dr. Russell wouldn't hesitate to tell you. Just let her do what she needs to do. I'm sure she'll explain everything to you as soon as she can." Fox said placing his arms around Theresa and kissing the top of her head.
"Thank you Fox. He's absolutely right Theresa. I'll tell you everything as soon as I can. If you don't mind, I'd like to be left alone while I do this."
"We understand Dr. Russell." Fox said as he took Theresa's hand with in his. "C'mon, let's go join everyone else."
Fox and Theresa left the room and began to walk hand in hand to the waiting room, where everyone else was. When they were about three meters away they stopped.
Fox could tell that Theresa was nervous and wanted to try and make her feel better, or just laugh.
"Hey" Fox said while softly taking Theresa's wrist and turning her around. "I know that this is really hard on you. I just want you to know that I'll be by your side no matters what."
Theresa looked up into Fox's eyes. She couldn't believe how lucky she was to have him love her and be by her side. "I love you Fox." Theresa murmured before closing the distance between them and kissing him passionately.
Fox responded to the kiss just as passionately. He broke the kiss and looked deep into her eyes. It was amazing, just an hour ago Theresa was pushing Fox away, and now she was pulling him closer and closer to her. He looked into her eyes and saw nothing but love for him. "I love you too Theresa" Fox said
All of a sudden devilish smile spread across Fox's lips. "I just hope that we can find some time to pick up where we left off in the records room." Fox said while softly patting Theresa's ass.
Theresa began to laugh loudly and rested her head on Fox's chest. Fox knew that it would make her laugh, and he was proud of his accomplishments. He took his other hand and buried it within Theresa's hair, and began to massage her scalp.
Theresa began to calm down once Fox began to massage her scalp. "Mmmm" she softly moaned. She lifted her head from Fox's chest and looked up at him with a seductive smile on her face. "I'm absolutely certain that we will make the time to pick up where we left off" she seductively teased.
They began to kiss each other lustfully when they were interrupted.
"Oh my!" Pilar said. The shock was evident in her voice.
Fox and Theresa broke their kiss and directed their attention towards Pilar. They realized that she wasn't alone and that Ethan had also entered the hallway.
"What's going on here?" asked Ethan who was soon followed by Gwen, Chad and Whitney. "We were looking all over for you two. We heard you laughing from inside the waiting room."
Fox and Theresa looked at each other and knew that it would be best for them to stay quiet.
It didn't take too long for everyone to notice that Fox and Theresa looked as though they had a roll in the hay. Their hair was all messed up and their clothes were a bit wrinkled.
"Well, what's going on? Where were the two of you?" Ethan asked once again, crossing his arms over his chest.
"I think it's pretty obvious Ethan" Gwen said amusedly "Look at them. They're all messed up."
"Stop it." said Chad as he tried to break the tension and prevent a fight. "It doesn't matter where they were, or what they were doing. All that matters is that they're here now and that we can know who the parents of the twins are."
"That's right honey. If only we knew where my mom went off to." said Whitney.
"Actually she's in the records room." said Fox. "She kicked us out a few minutes ago and gave us a big lecture about..." and Fox trailed off, realizing what he was about to say.
Everyone thought they knew what Fox was about to say; but they couldn't believe that they would do such a thing in the records room of a hospital. Ethan especially couldn't believe it.
"What did Dr. Russell give the two of you a lecture about?" Ethan asked.
Gwen shook her head. She couldn't believe that Ethan was either a moron and oblivious to the situation, or that he was jealous and still had feelings for Theresa after everything that happened.
Just as Fox was about to tell Ethan off, Dr. Russell approached the group.
"I see that you two were able to find your way back to the waiting room with out any detours." Dr. Russell said to Fox and Theresa; causing Fox to chuckle softly and Theresa to blush.
"May we know the results now Dr. Russell?" asked Theresa and Gwen in unison.
Dr. Russell took in a deep breath. She had been contemplating about what would be the best way to tell Ethan, Gwen and Theresa who the parents of the wins were. She decided that it would be best to tell them separately.
"Well, I have decided that it would be best to tell you separately. Theresa I would like you to go into my office and wait while I tell Ethan and Gwen the results." Dr. Russell said.
"I don't understand. Why can't you tell me while you tell them?" Theresa suspiciously asked.
"You'll see dear. Trust me. It's for the best." Dr. Russell reassured her.
"Alright Dr. Russell. Please try and hurry." Theresa said wearily.
Theresa turned around and began to walk to Dr. Russell's office.
"Theresa, wait up!" called Fox.
Theresa turned around to face him and gave him a weak smile.
"Do you want me to come with you?" Fox asked as he took hold of her hand.
"Are you sure that you wouldn't mind?" Theresa asked while hoping that he'd say no.
"Of course not. I wouldn't have offered if I didn't want to come." Fox said while turning Theresa around and placing arm around her waist. "I want you to know that I will be here for you no matters what." Fox said as they began to walk to Dr. Russell's office.
The rest of the walk was quiet. Fox and Theresa entered Dr. Russell's office together and sat on the couch. Fox wrapped his arm around Theresa and took her left hand in his right. Theresa laid her head upon his chest. She felt a bit better knowing that Fox was by her side and that she wasn't completely alone. However, she was still very nervous and wondered why Dr. Russell insisted on telling her the results alone.
Fox held on to Theresa tightly. He was afraid. He could tell that Ethan still had feelings for Theresa. He wondered what would happen if the children were hers and Ethan's. He wanted Theresa to be happy. However, he couldn't stand the possibility of him loosing her to Ethan. A part of him wished that the children were not hers, because if they were, they would be Ethan's as well; and that would cause Ethan and Theresa to have a deep connection. However, a part of him wished that the children were Theresa's because he knew that she'd be devastated if they weren't. But the thing that he wished more than anything in the world was that somehow the children were his; but he knew that it was impossible. Fox tore himself away from his thoughts and looked at Theresa. She looked like an angel in his eyes. He couldn't help but think about how lucky he was to have captured her heart.
"I love you." He said as he placed a kiss on top of her head.
"I love you too Fox" Theresa said as she looked up at him and then placed a soft kiss on his lips. "I'm so nervous Fox. I wonder what Ethan and Gwen are finding out."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Everyone watched as Fox and Theresa walked to Dr. Russell's office.
"Can you please tell us what the results are Dr. Russell?" asked a very nervous Gwen.
"Yes Gwen. Dr. Cummings has lent me his office. We should discuss this there. I don't feel right announcing the results in front of everybody."
"Yeah. You're right. This shouldn't be discussed in front of everyone." said Ethan
Ethan, Gwen, and Dr. Russell walked to Dr. Cummings office together. As soon as they entered Dr. Russell motioned for them to sit down on the couch and she herself sat behind the desk.
"As you two know, this was a very complicated pregnancy." Dr. Russell began. "The twins that Theresa had carried were in two separate amniotic sacs. This meant that the children could have different parents."
"Yes, Dr. Russell. We know all this. Just tell us the results! Please." said Gwen.
"Well you two, there's good news and there's bad news; depending on how you look at it." Dr. Russell began. "The good news is that the two of you are the parents of a happy, healthy, little baby boy."
"Thank you god." Gwen cried ecstatically. "Ethan, we have a son!"
"This is absolutely wonderful news. Thank you god, for answering our prayers." Ethan happily cried.
After Ethan and Gwen had a few moments to absorb the good news they realized that they had some bad news that they were yet to hear.
"What's the bad news Dr. Russell?"
"The bad new is that the little girl that Theresa gave birth to isn't yours. She isn't either of yours. She's Theresa's child."
"How can this be?" Gwen asked confusedly.
"I thought that you said that if the child wasn't ours it would be my and Theresa's child? How can I not be her father?" Ethan asked.
"Well we all know Theresa's story about drugging you and then sleeping with you because she thought that she lost your and Gwen's embryo. My theory is that Theresa never lost your embryo and that she never got pregnant from sleeping with you." said Dr. Russell.
"But how else could Theresa have gotten pregnant with this other child?" Gwen asked.
"Theresa could have slept with her child's father after the implantation. It's even possible that she slept with him before the implantation. If this was the case I must have mistook her embryo for yours. That would also explain why I never noticed two fetus' until later on in Theresa's pregnancy."
"Who is the father of Theresa's child?" Ethan asked angrily. It made him furious to know that Theresa's child wasn't his, but was another mans.
"I'm not at liberty to tell you that Ethan." Dr. Russell said calmly
"You shouldn't even be worried about who the father is Ethan." Gwen said with a hint of jealousy in her voice. "I'm thankful that it's not you. I personally think that this is the best news that I could have gotten. Theresa's child isn't yours and we have a son together."
"It is wonderful news honey." Ethan said, trying to hide the sadness and disappointment that he was feeling.
"It is wonderful news, isn't it? Now there is absolutely nothing to keep you apart." Dr. Russell said while thinking about what would have happened if Theresa's little girl had been Ethan's.
"When do we get to take our son home?" Gwen asked excitedly.
"Well I just need you to take care of some paper work and we'll put your names on the birth certificate and everything will ready." Dr. Russell said with a smile on her face. "Do you know what you are going to name him?"
"Yes." said Ethan. "Gwen and I already had names picked out."
"We decided that if we had a son, we'd name him Samuel Jonathon Winthrop and that we'd call him Sam Junior." Gwen said happily.
"It's such a lovely name. I'll leave the paperwork with you, since Ethan is a lawyer I'm sure he'll know how to fill it out. I have to go and tell Theresa the results." Dr. Russell said while handing Ethan the paperwork and leaving the office."
Once she left Gwen turned to Ethan and said something she thought she'd never say. "Ethan honey, I've thought about this long and hard, and I've decided that I want to give little Ethan back to Theresa. Despite everything she has done, she gave me the one thing that no one else could. She gave me a son that is your son too. For that I will always be thankful."
"I knew that you'd make the right decision Gwen. That's one of the reasons that I love you so much." Ethan said before softly kissing his wife.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Don't worry Theresa. You'll know soon enough." Fox said to her.
Theresa turned her head up to look at Fox. "I don't know what I'd do without you. I love you so much." Theresa said while looking deep into his eyes and then snuggling in closer to him.
"I love you too." Fox before kissing the top of Theresa's head.
Roughly half an hour had passed and Theresa was becoming more and more anxious with every minute.
"Is she ever going to come and tell me what the results are?" Theresa said in frustration.
"I'm sure Dr. Russell's..." Fox was interrupted when the doctor entered the room.
"Thank you for waiting so patiently Theresa." Dr. Russell said.
"Well Dr. Russell, what are the results?" Theresa asked anxiously.
Dr. Russell looked over at Fox before replying to Theresa. "Well, I think that we should discuss the results alone."
Fox could tell that for some reason Dr. Russell didn't want him to know what the results were yet and he wondered why. Never the less, he was still willing to provide Theresa and Dr. Russell with the privacy they needed. "I'll see you in a while Resa. I'll be just outside if you need me" Fox said before giving Theresa's hand a light squeeze and giving her a soft kiss on the lips. "I'll be here for you no matters what." Fox said before leaving the office.
"Thank you Fox. I love you." Theresa responded.
Fox gave her a weak smile before exiting the room.
He couldn't help but wonder if Theresa would feel the same way about him after she knew the results. He wondered what would happen if the children were hers and Ethan's.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Theresa eyed Dr. Russell suspiciously. "Why did you not want Fox to know the results?" she asked.
"Because I felt that you should be the one to tell him and not me. I'm not sure how he will react." Dr. Russell said.
"You're not sure how he'll react to what?" Theresa asked curiously.
"I'm not sure how he'll react to the results and so I just didn't want to be the one to tell him."
Theresa remembered the reason why she was here. "What are the results Dr. Russell?" Theresa asked nervously. "Are these children mine?"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
While Fox wondered who the parents of the twins were he saw Ethan and Gwen a few miles away and realized that he could just ask them.
As he approached them he let out a small cough to make them aware of his presence.
"Hi Fox." Gwen said while beaming with happiness.
"Hey" Fox said. He could tell that Gwen was ecstatic but that Ethan wasn't too happy to see him.
"What do you want Fox?" Ethan asked. He was still angry about what had happened earlier in the hallway.
"To be absolutely honest, I just wanted to know what the results are. Who are the parents of the twins?" Fox said, not wanting to make small talk.
"You mean Theresa still doesn't know?" Gwen asked curiously.
"Well, she's finding out now." Fox responded.
"Why aren't you in there with her?" Gwen asked.
"Because he doesn't care about her" Ethan muttered to himself, although Fox and Gwen could hear.
"Actually Ethan, I do care about her. Dr. Russell told me that she'd prefer to share the results with Theresa alone." Fox said coolly. "So can you two tell me what the results were?"
It didn't take a genius to realize why Dr. Russell didn't want Fox to hear the results from her. She wasn't sure if Theresa would want Fox to know and so she wanted Theresa to share the results with him, if she chose to. Both Ethan and Gwen were now aware of this.
"Fox, I think it would be best if you waited for Theresa to share the results with you." Gwen said sincerely.
Knowing that he wasn't going to get an answer out of them, he decided it would be best to head back to the office where Theresa was. "Alright. I'm going to head back." Fox said before turning around and heading back to the office.
Once he reached there he couldn't help but wonder what Theresa was hearing from Dr. Russell.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Well Theresa, I have some good news and some bad news regarding the twins." Dr. Russell said.
"Please Dr. Russell; just tell me what the results are." Theresa pleaded.
"The boy that you gave birth to is not biologically yours, Theresa. He is Ethan and Gwen's biological son. They have actually decided to name him Samuel Jonathan Winthrop, and call him Sam Junior for short." Eve told Theresa.
A few tears began to flow down Theresa's cheek and Dr. Russell noticed. "Honey, you have done such a wonderful thing. You've given Ethan and Gwen a child. You've allowed Gwen the chance to be a mother. You should be proud of yourself." Eve told her.
"I know Dr. Russell. It's just that I have developed such a strong bond with him, and it hurts to know that I won't be able to raise him." Theresa sobbed.
"I know honey, but like I said before there is some good news. The little girl you gave birth to is yours." Eve reported, knowing that it would cheer Thesesa up.
"Are you serious Dr. Russell? She's my baby? My baby with Ethan?" Theresa asked, wanting to believe that she hadn't heard wrong.
"Yes Theresa she's yours. However she isn't Ethan's." Dr. Russell said, knowing that Theresa would be shocked.
"Wait a minute." Theresa said, not believing what she had just heard. "She isn't Ethan's child?"
Dr. Russell shook her head no.
"Dear lord. Then who's her father?" Theresa asked in complete confusion.
"That's why I went to the record's room Theresa. I knew that you would want to know and since no one could find you, I decided to make the best use of my time and find out who the father was."
"Were you able to find out? I have no idea who it could be. The only person that I slept with after the implant was Ethan." Theresa spoke.
"The twins you carried were in two separate amniotic sacs. This meant that the children could have different parents." Dr. Russell began to explain.
"I know that Dr. Russell but how could this baby not be Ethan's daughter?" Theresa asked confusedly.
"My first instinct was that you slept with your child's father after the implantation. That's why I thought Ethan was the father. It was the only thing that made sense at the time." Dr. Russell continued to explain. "The tests concluded that Ethan wasn't the father of your baby. However, after I matched your baby's DNA to the records in the hospital database, I realized that you must have already been pregnant before the implantation of Ethan and Gwen's embryo's. I wasn't aware of the fact that you were already pregnant, and so I must have mistook your embryo for theirs. That would also explain why I never noticed two fetuses until later on in Theresa's pregnancy. Ethan and Gwen's embryo wouldn't have been as developed as yours was. It just hadn't occurred to me..." Dr. Russell trailed off after noticing that Theresa had spaced out.
"Theresa." Dr. Russell said sternly, bringing her out of her trance. "Did you hear me?"
"Um, yes Dr. Russell. You said that I was already pregnant when I had Ethan and Gwen's embryo implanted in me, right?" Theresa asked, while still in shock from what she had learned.
"Yes Theresa." Eve replied. "Do you remember who you slept with Theresa?" Dr. Russell asked, hoping that she wouldn't have to shock her more by telling her.
Theresa looked at the floor. "Fox." she said in almost a whisper. "Fox is the father of my child. Isn't he Dr. Russell?" Theresa asked before taking her gaze away from the floor and looking up at Dr. Russell.
"Yes Theresa." Eve said quietly. "Fox is the father of your child."
