(This story takes place a few days after Theresa and Ethan made love in Chris's office).

Theresa stared in total bewilderment as Gwen glared at her, face reddened and her eyes furious as she balanced Jane on her hip.

"What the hell.." she started to repeat and then her heart nearly stopped. 'Oh my God, she knows. She knows Ethan and I made love!' Joy warred with terror within her. In a way, she wanted Gwen to know, wanted her to finally see that Ethan would never give her up, never. But stronger was her fear that this would change nothing, except that Jared would hate her and her last chance for happiness would melt like snow in the sun.

"Look Gwen, I can explain-"

Gwen cut her off as she shoved Theresa aside, walking through the door. "I don't think that's really possible, Theresa. You are so low. You are vile! First you kill my beautiful baby, and then you make a mockery of her memory by playing this sick game!"

"What?" Theresa's jaw dropped. "Have you completely lost what's left of your mind, Gwen? I don't know what you're talking about!"

Gwen was shaking all over, she was so angry. "I know it was you, Theresa! Calling me, disguising your voice, telling me to come find Sarah! How can you be this cruel?" Her voice broke as she stared at her tormentor.

Astonishment sagged Theresa's features. "Someone called you-about Sarah? Someone said she's alive?" She sat down heavily on the couch, her anger at Gwen's accusation washed away by total confusion. "How can that be?"

"Oh stop!" Gwen's voice was nearly a shriek now. "You..oh, I can't think of anything bad enough to call you!" She wanted to choke the life out of Theresa for once and for all, wanted to stop that nasty little biatch from messing with her and her family ever again...

As she took a step towards Theresa a soft sound caught Gwen's attention. Looking up, she saw EJ frozen in a corner, staring at them both. It was like an ice cold pail of water had been dumped over Gwen's head, washing away the red mist in front of her eyes. He looked frightened...of her. Gwen felt tears press against her eyelids. "I've scared him, thanks to Theresa. My God, how I hate her. The things she has pushed me to do..she's taken away the person I wanted to be." Still, she would not let Theresa drag her down again. She wasnt' going to get into another cat fight with her, but she wasn't about to let her get away with it either. She took a deep breath to calm herself.

"You know what? I don't even care why you did it, but I know you did, so you might as well give up whatever sick game you're playing. It's not going-wait a minute. I know what this is about." Gwen glared at Theresa, who stared back at her with wide eyes. "You think you can send me on some wild goose chase looking for Sarah, and while I'm distracted you'll just take Ethan and Jane from me. Well, it's not going to work. My daughter is dead. I held her body, and I buried her, because of you! And I'm not falling for your games, not ever again."

Theresa stood up, as furious as Gwen now. "I did not kill Sarah and deep down, you know it, Gwen! If you search inside yourself, you'll see the truth about what happened to your daughter and you'll see the face of guilt, looking straight back at you in the mirror!"

"Oh you..." Gwen started for Theresa at the same time the other woman started for her. They would have met in another second, would have made a mockery of themselves as they ripped each others hair out, if Pilar hadn't taken that moment to step through the front door.

"Gwen! Theresa! What the hell are you doing?" Pilar stepped into between them and reached for Jane. "And in front of the children! For shame! Are you both thirteen that you can't control yourselves?" She gave them both a scathing look. "No man is worth this! Nothing is! I don't know how the two of you look at yourselves in the morning." Pilar beckoned EJ to her. "EJ, take Jane into your room for a minute, please, while I talk to these two."

After the children left, Pilar turned back to them, hands on her hips. "Now, I want to know what this ridiculousness is all about. And I swear, if the name Ethan is mentioned even once, I will have to smack some sense into both of you!"
