Paloma, had decided to go to the Book café' to meet Miguel, it had been awhile since she'd saw him and with everything that was going on with him, Kay, and Charity she figured he'd need someone to talk to.
Whitney and Fox had also agreed to meet at the Book café', to talk as they usually did.
"Hey, Miguel.", Paloma greeted.
"Paloma?!", Miguel asked. "Oh My God, when'd you get back?"
"Early, this morning, mama told me you came here every morning for coffee' so I figured I'd swing by and see my big brother."
"Oh. How long do you plan on staying in town?"
"I don't know, I guess I'm here to stay."
"Oh, That's great", Miguel exclaimed. "You really need to come and see Maria, she's grew so much since the picture I sent you."
"Wow! It's so weird we've all got kids, you, Theresa, Luis and….", she trailed off, no she wasn't going to confined in him, she already had told Theresa, and the more who knew the more chance that Pilar would find out.
"I know, it's weird isn't it?", he commented.
"Yup.", she agreed.
"So, have you seen Theresa?", he asked.
"Yeah, last night.", she replied. "Do you know who Fox is ?"
"Fox Crane?', he asked, watching as she nodded. "Yeah, I've seen him time to time with Theresa and Whitney, why?"
"No reason.", she lied.
"Oh.", he replied.

Fox and Whitney walked in and set three tables down from Miguel and Paloma.
"Is Chad, going to meet us here?', Fox asked.
"I don't know, he has to go down to Crane Industries, this morning.", Whitney replied.
"Oh.", Fox replied. "Have you heard from Theresa?', Fox asked changing the subject, he had thought about her all night and hadn't even been home till 30 minutes ago and that was to simply shower and change.
"No, she hasn't called.", Whitney replied.
"Oh, God I wish she call me.", he exclaimed in frustration.
Whitney looked at him sympathetic. "Fox, she will in time.", Whitney replied place her hands over his.
"Nice to know you care so much about my sister.":, a voice came from behind both of them, Fox turned to see a petite woman with long curly black hair standing behind him.
"Excuse, me but, I haven't got a clue what you're talking about?', Fox replied.
"Of course you do, you womanizing, no good bastard.", she replied connecting her hand with his face.
"And, you, you're nothing but, another lay for him sweetie, a dime a dozen when it comes to him, he can get from you anytime he wants it, right?", the woman continued.
"You have no right to speck to her like that…", Fox began.
"To bad I am.", she stated. "The truth never hurt no one."
"I don't know what you're talking about or why you're so angry with me.", Fox replied.
"Because, you used my sister.", she replied connecting her hand with his face again. "Selfish-bastard."
"When? Who was your sister? Who are you?", Fox asked.
"Last night.", she replied simply.
Fox looked at her knowing exactly who she was talking about, Whitney looked up at him stunned from the look on his face this woman wasn't lying.
"I can't believe you!", she replied storming off.
"Whit!", he called after her, but she never turned back around to him.
"Sorry, to rain on you parade and scare off your whore.", the woman continued.
"Hey, lady, listen, I don't know what Theresa told you, but you've really misunderstood.", Fox replied.
"First off the names Paloma and secondly no. Theresa told me everything.", she explained "You Perv.", Paloma lifted her hand once more to slap him again, but he caught her first.
"There's no need to slap me just, hear me out, then if you see the need to slap the shit out of me you can.", Fox replied.
"Well, I'm sure I'll see the need to see as you're a womanizing, no good player, who used my sister to get you off.", Paloma replied.
"Paloma, I didn't use Theresa, I care about her.", Fox replied.
"Yeah, right.", Paloma spat. "You're just like every guy I've ever meet, making these ridiculous excuses for what you do."
"I have a felling this is more about you're personal problems then me and Theresa.", Fox stated.
"No!", Paloma replied. "I'm sick of my sister being used, by every man who comes in her life, Ethan, Julian and now you."
"I don't know about Julian or Ethan , but I do care for her, she means a lot to me.", Fox stated.
"Is that why you slept with her?", Paloma asked.
"I don't know, I don't know what I feel.", Fox confessed. "I don't know what love is, but I know this much I never internally hurt Resa."
"What about Whitney Russell, do you love her?', Paloma questioned.
"I don't know, I thought I did, but lately I've been questioning that myself.", Fox replied, Paloma could see he was sincere.
"Well!", Paloma started, she went over and set across from him, she noticed everyone was looking at them. "Everyone's looking at us like where crazy."
"I've noticed.", Fox replied. "And, they've got go reason to think so."
"I know, So what you say wanna get out of here?', Paloma offered. "Hopefully, we can Whitney and sort this whole thing out."
"Yeah, she'll probably tell Theresa and she'll think…", Fox began.
"She knows I'm back.", Paloma interrupted. "She'll think I attacked you."
"You did.", Fox replied.
"Sorry.", Paloma replied. "It's just I'm very protective of my family."
"Don't worry about it.", Fox replied. "I'm use to women, I've never laid eyes on attacking."
"Great, first impression, hmm?', Paloma asked.
"Don't worry about it.", Fox replied. "I'd done the same if I thought someone had used my sister."
"So, does that mean we're friends?", Paloma questioned.
"Does that mean I won't get beat up by you again?", Fox asked.
"Depends, you better make things up to Resa.", Paloma warned.
"Deal.", Fox replied.
"Deal, Come on lets go find Whitney and explain the whole situation.", Paloma replied.
