At home Theresa was worried because Gwen could find some way to get out and come after her again.
"Theresa calm down. Gwen isn't going to get out. She Isn't going to hurt us ever again. Our family is safe." Ethan said.
"But what if…"
"No what ifs. Gwen isn't a factor in our lives anymore. It is you, me and our kids."
"Ethan I just don't know. This baby is coming into the world with a big secret on his or her back. What kind of life is that for this child?"
"This child is coming into the world with love and that is all anyone needs. Theresa believe me when I say this child will have the best life possible."
"Ok, Ethan I believe you." Theresa said.
"Ok, so let's go get our kids and take them out to lunch."
"Mama said she and papa would drop them off in twenty minutes."
"ok, so where would you like to take them?" Ethan asked.
"Well the baby is in the mood for cheesecake from the Dairy Shack." Theresa said pouty lipped.
"Oh, the baby wants cheesecake?"
"Yes, the baby wants me to have cheesecake."
"Well then the baby will have it's cheesecake." Ethan said and the kissed.
Twenty minutes later Pilar and Martin arrived with Jane and Little Ethan.
"Ok, so we have to go. Some errands to run." Pilar said and they left.
"So you two ready to go out to dinner?" Ethan asked.
"I don't fell so good." Little Ethan said.
"Do you fell sick?" Theresa asked getting to his level.
"Yes, my tummy hurts."
"Ok, why don't we hold of dinner. I will settle Ethan up in his room. Stay down here with Jane," Theresa said and took Little Ethan up to bed. "Ok baby you go change into your pjs and I will take your temp when you come out."
"Ok." Little Ethan said heading to his bathroom. He changed and came back out.
"Ok, in bed." Theresa said.
Little Ethan climbed into bed and Theresa took his temp.
"103.7" Theresa said. "You wait here and I will go talk to daddy. Just close your eyes and sleep."
Little Ethan did as he was asked and Theresa went down.
"Ethan his temp is really high." Theresa said worried.
"Ok, should we call Eve?" Ethan asked.
"Yeah you call her and see if she can come over right away and I will call Sheridan to see if she can take Jane."
They each got on their cells.
"Eve it's Ethan. There is something wrong with Little Ethan is temp is high and Theresa is worried."
"What is his temp?" Eve asked.
"Theresa what is his temp?"
"103.7 and it looks like it is raising." Theresa said,
"103.7 and Theresa said it looks like it is going up."
"Ok, I need you to bring him here as fast as you can."
"Ok, we will be there soon."
"Sheridan, it's Theresa. Little Ethan is sick and we have to take him to the hospital so can you come get Jane?" Theresa asked.
"Sure, I am a few blocks away. I will be there in a few." Sheridan said.
Theresa hung up.
"Ok, pack Jane a bag. I will go check on Little Ethan." Theresa said.
"Ok," Ethan said.
He took Jane to her room and Theresa headed to Little Ethan's. He was sweaty and pale looking.
"OMG, Ethan something is wring." Theresa called.
Sheridan just came in with Marty and ran upstairs.
"What is going on?" Sheridan asked.
"Little Ethan is sick. We need to get him to the hospital now. Jane is in her room. I was packing her a bag." Ethan said.
"Ok, I will deal with her. Just go and call with any news." Sheridan said and left with Marty. Ethan picked Little Ethan up and carried him down stairs. Theresa grabbed her purse and they left.
"Dr. Russell we are on our way, but he looks sicker."
"Ok, I will be waiting for you out front." Eve said.
They arrived and moved Little Ethan from the car to the gurney and rushed him inside with Theresa fallowing. Ethan found a park space and ran in. Theresa was waiting outside the cubical when he found her.
"What's going on?" Ethan asked.
"Eve is looking him over. She wants to run some test to find out what is going on." Theresa said.
"Ok, " Ethan said.
They waited a few more minutes and Eve came out.
"So his temp is high and raising. We have him on a fever reducer and his vitals are good. We are running some test and we should know something more soon."
"Can we go in and see him?" Ethan asked.
"Yes just for a little while." Eve said.
Theresa and Ethan walked into the room and saw him hocked to machines and fragile. Theresa took his hand and kissed him.
"Time to show everyone how strong you are. So you have to fight so you can come back to me and Ethan."
They sat with him for awhile until Eve came back.
"So Little Ethan has a genetic disordered. His blood has a chemical in it that is killing him. We are running some test on the blood Julian and you have stored here at the hospital. We should know soon what it is and how to treat it."
"Dr. Russell we have those test." A nurse said handing her a folder. Eve looked it over and couldn't believe what she was reading.
"Theresa you had a DNA test done on Little Ethan when he was little right?"
"No, why do you ask?" Theresa asked.
"Well Julian isn't Little Ethan's father. Is it possible that Ethan is Little Ethan father?" Eve asked.
"There was a chance, but the timing seemed off. We all assumed it was Julian." Theresa said.
"Are you saying that I am Little Ethan's father?" Ethan asked.
"I only slept with you and Julian. There is no one else. If Julian isn't then Ethan is."
"Ok, we will get the testing done and get your son better." Eve said walking away.
"Ethan I didn't know." Theresa said.
"I know, it is ok. We know now and he will get better and be home before you know it." Ethan said hugging her.
