Theresa walks into the nursery…and starts to cry to Jane.

"Oh my dear Jane…I've missed you so much…Gwen will never take you from me ever again…I love you so much…I just wish that Ethan could see what kind of person Gwen really was. I hate being angry with him…it breaks my heart."

Ethan, on his way to see Theresa, overhears her talking to Jane.

"You know what…I think I have to give up on this fantasy of Ethan and me together…cause for some reason…he keeps believing that I am the one that sent the information to the tabloid…when really it was Gwen and her mother…and that's why he says he can't trust me. I can't find the proof anywhere…even if it still exists…which Gwen made perfectly clear on New Years eve when she attacked me…Alistair has it…and knowing my pig of a husband…I'll never get it.

Ethan walks in suspicious of the conversation she had with Jane.

"Ethan, what are you doing here?"

"Well, I came to see my daughter…."

"Oh".

"…and you."

"Hmm…what for?"

"I…uh just wanted to know what you were up to. And what you were talking to Jane about."

"Well…I was just telling her how much I missed her and how much I love her to death," Theresa said as she tickled Jane in the stomach causing her to laugh.

"Really? He asked suspiciously.

"Yea, really."

"So you're saying that you didn't know I was standing outside that door listening to you talk to Jane?"

"What? You were? What did you hear?"

"Don't act like you don't know Theresa…we both know that you can twist things around so that you can have your way."

"Ethan, I swear to god that I didn't know you were there."

"Of course you didn't know…that's the way it always is with you…you're always the innocent."

"I didn't say that," Theresa laid Jane down in her crib. "I think that if you want to continue this conversation we better go somewhere else"

"Fine."

They enter Theresa's bedroom.

"So whats you game this time Theresa, hmm? Are you trying to frame Gwen with something that you did?

"You better watch it Ethan…or I'll wipe that face right off you! I never had any idea that you were listening to me talk to Jane. But I don't know why I'm even explaining myself to you…you're never gonna believe me. Especially over your perfect saint of a wife…who in reality is a scheming, pathetic, lying BITCH!"

"Theresa, attacking Gwen is going to get us nowhere."

"And neither is questioning me about your paternity. So if you'll excuse me…I have nothing left here to prove!" Theresa began to walk out but Ethan grabbed her and pulled her back and close to him by accident. They both just stopped…their faces were inches apart…they began to breath heavier with excitement…Ethan pulled her into a kiss…just a forced long overdue kiss. Theresa kissed back for a moment but pulled back and let go of his grip.

"You are some piece of work you know that…first you accuse me of lying to you…and then you kiss me…what's the matter with you?"

"Umm…I don't know what came over me….I'm sorry."

"No you're not…you and I both know why you did that…its just for the fact that you're too chicken shit to stand up to your wife…Ethan you see what you are don't you?"

"No…what?"

"You're her bitch" They both laughed.

"C'mon Theresa, you know that isn't true…"

"Oh, I do, do I? When was the last time you stood up to her?"

He raised his hand and stuck out his index point like her was going to tell her why…his mouth even opened…and he stood there for a second thinking…then he closed his mouth and le down his arm because he knew that he was ashamed that the last time he stood up to her was years ago.

"See? Told ya!"

"Fine, so what? I've never had to stand up to her…she's usually right…and she hasn't done anything wrong to me."

"Hasn't done anything wrong? Ethan, that's all she's ever done…and I thing that she's blinded you with all of her lies…only because she hasn't been caught yet…!"

"Theresa, if you're going to start with the paternity thing again…let me make this clear…I know Gwen wouldn't do that…she has my complete trust. You on the other hand have lied to me time and time again…the email was sent from your computer…why shouldn't I believe that you sent it?"

"Why would I? What did I have to gain, huh?"

Ethan starred back at her blankly.

"Now, let's talk about this…what did I have to lose?

"What?" Ethan asked.

She said softly, "…you. Why on earth would I ever risk losing you…since you're all I've ever wanted".

"I honestly don't know…"

"Ethan…I've given up on you…but I'll leave you with this…I swear on my brother Antonio's and Luis's grave that I DID NOT send that email to the tabloid……and to the fact that Gwen did." She left the room, tears streaming down her face.

"What if I'm wrong...? Ethan said…just as Theresa ran out the room.

Coming:

I know I said that Theresa would find the evidence….but I've decided that Ethan would now…so Ethan finds the evidence.
