Ethan was sitting on the back deck when Theresa came up. "Ethan Crane!" She said acting mad. "Theresa what is wrong?" She slapped him but not hard. "What was that for?" Ethan asked rubbing the sting from his cheek. "For getting me pregnant." Ethan eyes lit up. "We're having a baby?" He asked excitedly. "No we are having three." Ethan fainted. Theresa left and went to wake him. "Come on baby, time to wake." Ethan slowly opened his eyes. "You said three." "Yes Ethan three babies." Ethan smiled. "Ok, I aonly wanted twins." Ethan said as Theresa helped him up. "Well we are getting three.: She lead him into the kitchen. "Theresa are you ok with this?" "I would of preferred one at a time, but we get three at once. Ethan our kids will never be alone. They'll always have someone to play with." "Yeah." Ethan hugged her. "Ethan we need to discuss something?" Theresa said leading them into the living room and sitting on the couch. "What is it?" "Well Dr. Russell says she thinks it might be a good idea to finally connect with out families." "What do you think?" "Ethan I am new to the becoming a mom thing. Mama is no long around to help, so I would like some family. I think we've waited long enough. Dr. Russell says they miss us like crazy and this news would be welcoming." Theresa said smiling. "I want our babies to grow up in a big family and Ethan they can give us one." "You're right. I agree with you." "SO when do we tell them?" Theresa asked smiling. "How about now. I saw my family arrive earlier and we could do this all at once." "Ok." They walked across the street and she knocked. The young lady she had seen in the yard opened the door. "May I help you?" "Yes, we are looking for Martin and Pilar Fitzgerald and Ivy and Julian Crane." Ethan said. "Ok, they are inside, can you wait a sec?" "Sure." Theresa said. Paloma walked into the living room. "The neighbors from across the street are her and they are looking for you four." Paloma said. "Ask them in." Martin said. Paloma walked back to them and showed them in. They could feel the eyes of everyone in the room on them. "Can we help you?" Martin asked. "Yes, my name is Theresa and this is my husband Ethan and we are your children that went missing 19 years ago." Theresa said holding tight to Ethan's hand. "We wondered when you were going to come around," Martin said. "We needed time." Theresa said. "It is understandable." Pilar said. "Um Dr. Russell encouraged us to come over." Ethan said. "Is something wrong?" Ivy asked. "No, everything is great." Theresa said. "If you don't mind us asking why did you see Dr. Russell." Luis asked. "Ethan and I are having triplets in eight months." Theresa said placing her hand on her belly. "Triplets?" Julian said. "Yes, Dr. Russell felt with the up coming arrivals it would be better if we had family around and Theresa is a bit scared." Ethan said. "That is understandable." Sheridan said. "Why don't you two have a seat and we can all get to know each other." Pilar said. Theresa and Ethan sat. Martin introduced everyone and they sat talking for several hours. As the hours grew into the afternoon They all decided to go out for lunch. Theresa and Ethan told them about growing up in Paris and what kind of life they lived. "So the parents who raised you have died." Pilar said. "Yes mama was the best. She would always braid my hair and teach me to keep house and cook, but also fallow my dreams." Theresa said. "And the man Andrew?" Julian asked. "Papa was the greatest. He would always find time to push me on the swing even if he had a million things to do." Theresa said. "It sounds like you had a great childhood." Ivy said. "We did." Ethan said. "We don't mean to make you feel bad. But we had a great life with people who loved us." "We understand." Pilar said. "We would never want to take their mempries away or their place, we would just love to be part of your lives." "Me too." Theresa said hugging her for the first time. Pilar smiled and had a few tears fall down her checks at the same time. They spent the whole day getting to know each other. Theresa grew tired and Ethan felt it better to get her home so she could get some sleep and not over do it. Ivy and Pilar arranged to stop by tomorrow and have tea. They said goodbye and Ethan took Theresa home. He got her up into bed and sat reading to her. She loved when he sat and read to her. His voice calmed her and she was always able to sleep better.
A few week pasted into months. They families grew close. Dr. Russell monitored Theresa closely as her due date grew near. Theresa could feel the babies moving all the time. Ethan would sit and talk to them. Ivy, Pilar, Paloma, Sheridan and Charity all helped get the nursery ready. Ethan, Martin, Luis, and Miguel painted it for them. It wasn't until her third trimester that they learned they were having two girls and a boy. Theresa and Ethan grew more excited as each day pasted. Theresa had one month to go until she was due and the signs started to appear. At fisth they were little things, but soon Ethan and Theresa knew evil was making a pay for their babies. Theresa dreams were flooded by men wanting to take them and use them for evil, so Theresa was barely sleeping. Dr. Russell grew worried as the stress started to wane on Theresa. Neither told anyone what was going on because they knew it would be to much for anyone to handle. Theresa was scared and wanted to return to Paris. "Theresa we can't go to Paris. You are due with triplets in a month." Ethan said. "But Ethan evil is here and it wants our babies. What if good comes to take them like they took us? Ethan we can't lose them." "Theresa we aren't going to lose them. Look Andrew gave me some of Mama's books. Why don't we read them and see what we can do to save our babies?" "Ethan I am so scared." "I know, but Theresa we will win. We're charmed remember and our babies are too." Ethan found the books and he sat reading them to her. This way she was able to relax witch Eve insisted but they could both hear the same thing. Ethan got to a part that got the attentions. To my children, here you will learn what is a head for you. What has been set in motion from your birth. If you are reading then you are expecting and the sign of come forward of evil wanting to take your children.

"Ethan please." :"Ok, but you need to close you eyes." "Fine." She smiled at him and closed her eyes. He read on. "When the to Charmed one's start a family their babies will be Blessed. Two girls and a boy. Each hold a part of the world's future. With each lies pure goodness and love. Evil will be sure to come after them but there is a way to keep them safe." Ethan looked over and saw Theresa asleep. He laid her back gently on her pillow and she slept. He read on to himself and found out what he had to do. After reading it all he kissed his wife on the head and headed out after leaving her a note.
