12—A New Life, A New Beginning
(A few months later)
Standing at the window, Theresa smiles as she watches Ethan and her son play in the snow. Finally, she had the life she always wanted. Ethan and her were soon married after his divorce from Gwen became finalized a few months ago. It was a dream come true, and Theresa found herself pinching her hand to make sure it was all real.
"Ow!"
"Baby, are you okay?" Ethan said, coming in to get something to drink.
"Yeah, I just pinched myself."
"Well, why did you do a crazy thing like that?" He says, taking her into his arms for a quick kiss.
"I wanted to make sure our life together was real. It feels like a dream."
Smiling, Ethan kisses her lips again softly. "It's our dream come true. You and our children mean the world to me, you know that? I couldn't love you all more than I already do."
"Our children. We really have an amazing life, don't we?"
"We sure do. First, we were brought back together…"
"Then, we found out Little Ethan was really your son…"
"And then we got married…"
"And now our family will be expanding…"
"And our family will be….wait, what did you just say?" Ethan says, a look of shock coming over his face.
Smiling, Theresa nods her head. "You heard me, Mr. Winthrop. It appears all our made up love making sessions have come in handy."
"We're pregnant?"
"We are definitely pregnant!"
"Theresa! Oh my god!" He says, picking her up and twirling her around. Setting her gently back on the ground, he leans in to kiss her lips, feeling the happiness erupt inside him.
"How do you do it? How do you manage to make me even happier than I was yesterday?"
Smiling, Theresa links her hands around Ethan's neck. "With a little luck, a lot of faith, and my unconditional love for you."
"I love you, Mrs. Winthrop. I love you so much."
"And I love you, Mr. Winthrop. Forever and always."
The End!
