Love Began with the First Meeting

"Becky, Mark's just a kid!" he spat through his gritted teeth. His hands were still clenched so much that they were already turning white as if he was going to break his hands any minute now. His face was twisted in anger. "He's just a kid!" he bellowed.

Becky was surprised at the mention of Mark—until she realized what was going on. She wasn't scared anymore—she was just angry now. What does he have to do with me?" she demanded.

"Hmph!" Eric snorted. "Becky, can you really tell me honestly that you have nothing to do with what happened to Mark today?"

Becky lost it. Eric had some nerve to come here and accuse her. She could finally breathe now that her secret was still safe. She pushed him hard and glared at him, "Eric, don't you ever come here to talk about Addison again!" she snapped. "Did you just really come here to rub it in? You and Brian, both of you! You two treated me like a princess when you loved me. And you two both just stood up and left. So now you think you can just come in here and say whatever you want to me?"

However, to Eric's eyes, Becky was just being a really good actress and was just using her anger to cover up what she'd done.

"Becky, I really didn't think you'd stoop this low. I didn't think you were that evil." Eric's eyes were filled with disappointment. Even though he pursued Becky before, he never really loved her—he just did that to compete with Brian. Nonetheless, they grew up together and that meant something to him. She used to be such a lovely girl—proud and stubborn but lovely still. How had she turned into the woman that she was now?

Becky was furious. Eric's cold eyes just made her even more angry. She shouted, "Eric, I don't care what you think of me! But has either of you ever even thought about me while you were all caught up with that bitch Molly?" She pushed him again but Eric was too strong for her. She scowled at him and continued, "Molly's a bitch! Her mom was a bitch too! Stealing husbands from every woman she knew! Now that's what Molly does too! She's nothing but a-"
