Chapter 3
Who R U ?
Dylan looked shocked. "What?" He asked his voice barely escaping his lips as Fox had strode across the room and pulled Dylan up into a standing position by the shoulders. All Theresa could do was stare on in shock. Had she let the wrong person into the house? As Fox pulled Dylan up he immediately pulled him into a hug.
Fox laughed. "Just kidding Dylan." He said. Dylan let out a sigh. "Fox you had me there for a moment, to think you forgot what I looked like." "Dylan what sane person could forget that face." Fox said laughing. "Hello honey." He added going to greet Theresa. He bent down and placed a kiss on her head.
She playfully smacked him on the arm. "You had me thinking that I let in some psycho." She said. "Sorry." He said smirking. "Uh huh well I'll let you two catch up while I go and occupy myself." She said turning to leave. "Uh Theresa.. What is this?" Asked Fox. "What?" Said Theresa as she turned around.
The little cat had apparently jumped up onto Fox's lap when he had sat down and was now purring loudly. "Oh I'm sorry Fox." She said walking back to him. "He appeared out of no where in the front of the house and I was kind of hoping that we could keep him until we find his owners, if he has any owners."
Fox sighed as he looked at the cat and scratched him behind the ears. "Friendly little thing isn't he?" "So can we keep him?" She asked pouting a little. "I guess." He said. "Thank you Fox!" She said with joy. Walking over to him excitedly before grabbing the cat and placing a quick kiss on his lips.
His smile never left his face as he watched her leave the room. "Ah Fox I thought I'd never see the day that you'd settle down." "Neither did I." He said turning back to Dylan. "How's life been treating you? Is there a girl at all?" "Life has been going and a girl, sadly no one in particular just a couple one night stands." Fox nodded a look of understanding in his eyes. "I now the feeling man but someday you'll find that special someone and when you do never ever let her go." "I'll take that into note." Said Dylan.
"So what were you and Theresa talking about before I got here?" He asked. "Mostly of how the two of you got together and your bachelor days." "Oh God.. What did you tell her?" Asked Fox horrified. "Don't worry Fox everything I told her was strictly PG nothing R rated." Said Dylan with a laugh.
He ran his hand through his dark black hair before taking a sip of his beer. Fox sighed. "She's a real treasure and to believe that I'm not only settling down but I'm going to become a father shortly after." "Humph.. You don't work slow do you Fox?" Said Dylan. Fox laughed as he sank back into the chair.
They sat there for a few hours catching up on old times when they began to smell something from the kitchen. Dylan inhaled deeply. "Whatever that is it smells great." Fox closed his eyes and smiled. "Hey Fox you never said she could cook." "You'd be surprised." Fox answered. "Damn Fox you better watch your back because if you mess this up I'm sure as hell not going to let an opportunity like that pass me by."
"Don't get too excited Dylan there is no way in the world that I'd make a mistake that would cost me Theresa." "Sure man I'm sure you won't." Said Dylan smiling and patting him on the back. "Now I'm dying to find out what your lovely Theresa is cooking." He said walking in the direction of the kitchen.
Both walked into the kitchen finding Theresa setting the table. "What's for dinner?" Asked Fox as he walked towards the stove and lifted the top of one of the pots boiling. Theresa grabbed a wooden spoon and hit his hand with it. "Will you get out of my kitchen, I'll call you when the food is ready."
Dylan stood off to the side itching his nose to hide the laugh that was threatening to escape his lips. Fox laughed and gave her a quick peck on the cheek. "Alright babe I'll leave you to do your thing.. but I'll be back." He said as he backed away from her. Theresa just laughed. "Come on Dylan we can take a hint, we know when we're not wanted." The two of them walked out of the kitchen and back into the living room.
"Hey Dill do you want shoot some hoops while we wait?" "Sure." "Cool." The both of them walked out into the back yard where they took off there shirts and began to play some ball.
....
Theresa pushed back the curtains and smiled as she watched Fox and Dylan playing basketball. All of the happy memories washed back into her mind.
(A/N: I'm putting flashbacks, and there will be a few, some in different chapters just to freshen you up on the other story for those who can't remember that well.)
.....Flashbacks.....
"Theresa when I catch you..." "You'll what Fox?" She asked with a laugh. Fox sped up catching up to Theresa. He grabbed onto her but the sudden quick movement brought them both to the ground, they landed in an awkward position with Theresa on top of him. The ocean water lapped at their skin.
They stared into each other's eyes. Fox hesitantly placed his lips onto hers, surprised that she actually kissed back.
....
Theresa's head rested against his chest.
She played with the buttons on his shirt as he caressed her head lovingly.
....
Theresa sighed as the feeling of Fox's warm body enveloped her. "I love you so much Theresa." Said Fox looking into her eyes again. They found themselves inching closer towards each other until their lips met and they finally were sharing a kiss.
.....End Flashbacks.....
Theresa sighed but quickly turned around when she smelled something burning. She ran to the pot and lifted the top. A billow of smoke rushed out, the steam hitting her face. Theresa waved her hand in front of her face as she coughed. She turned down the fire before stirring the contents in the pot.
She moved to look in the oven but had to stop when she became out of breath. She exhaled and closed her eyes waiting for the exhausted feeling to pass. She moved back towards the oven and looked in. The roast chicken almost looked ready.
She predicted that the meal would be done by the next half hour. She then moved back to the window and looked out. She saw Fox make a basket and then do a small victory dance that caused Theresa to laugh.
A/N: Sorry for the wait. Thanks for the reviews. I hope you liked the chapter. Please review.
