I Can't Take This Anymore!
Running after her, Ethan knocks at the bedroom door. "Theresa? Can I come in?"
"Go away."
"Theresa, please, let's talk."
"No. I'm going to take a nap, just leave me alone."
Sighing, Ethan moves away from the closed door. "Fine."
Theresa's room
"God, this is crazy. I'm the only woman here, and now I have three men after me…God, I need some sleep…maybe this will all be a dream…
Theresa's dream
Theresa, you're so beautiful…
Theresa, be mine….
Theresa, I've watched you…I want you…
"Stop!" Screaming out, Theresa wakes up from her sleep, and feels disoriented. Hearing a knock on the door, Theresa looks up to see Ethan come in.
"Hey, what's wrong? Are you alright?"
"NO! I'm not alright!"
Sitting slowly on the bed, Ethan looks at Theresa. "Want to talk about it?"
"I can't do this anymore! I can't be in this house with three men, it's unheard of!"
"Theresa, calm down."
"Calm down? Ethan, I just dreamt that you, Fox and Mike were all after me. I can't take this! No one paid attention to me before, and now it's 'let's go hit on Theresa' deal. I can't do this anymore!"
"Hey, hey, come here." Taking Theresa into his arms, Ethan rubs her back soothingly. "I'm sorry, Theresa. I'm sorry if I've pushed things between us."
"You haven't, Ethan. I'm just so confused. It's like I feel that all three of you are just giving me attention so I can be swayed when voting comes around. I can't do this, Ethan."
"I know, Theresa, I know. It's going to be over soon."
"Don't you get it? I am living here with three men, and frankly, all I want is one!" She spits out, covering her mouth quickly with the confession.
Trying to hide his smile, Ethan shifts in the bed. "Well, I'm sorry I'm so irresistible."
"Oh, you!" Theresa says, as she socks Ethan in the stomach with a pillow.
"Hey, come here." Ethan says as he holds Theresa in his arms. "Listen, the head of household competition is tonight, since you can't play, I will try my hardest to win. I want you to be in the end, Theresa. I know how much this cash prize means to you."
"What about everyone else? They need the money as much as I do."
"I doubt it. Fox is from a rich family, he doesn't need the money. Mike….I think Mike is here just for the fame of being on TV…"
Looking up, Theresa smiles at Ethan. "What about you? You need the money.."
"Not if it means giving you up. Theresa, look, I know it's only been a few months, and I know we've had some issues with Gwen and all, but now that it's just you and me…well…I have to confess that I feel something for you…really deeply…"
"You do?"
"Yes, I do. I like you, Theresa, and I want to see what happens for us outside this house when the show is over."
"I want that, too."
"Then trust me. Trust that things will work out in the end, no matter what."
"No matter what."
Leaning in slowly, Ethan kisses Theresa passionately.
Later On
As the houseguests move outside to the backyard for the second to last competition, tension rises.
(I have to win this competition to stay in the game. I need that money, and I want the fame. Mike).
(This competition is one for all. I need to win this to prove to the world that I'm not just some rich boy. Fox.)
Sitting out, Theresa watches as the three men take their places for a question and answer trivia game.
(I watched all three men take their places. It's amazing that this game has come this far. I really want Ethan to stay in the house with me. I hope this works Theresa.)
After twenty questions have been asked, and answered, the announcer comes on over the speakers.
"Houseguests, please go into the living room, where the TV screen will show the new head of household. Good luck."
The houseguests then move into the living room, each taking a deep breath in hopes they have won…
Coming Up
