One week later,
Narrator's POV
Today's the day that Becky is to be released from the hospital, Seth is really happy to finally have Becky back home, to finally have her wake up beside him since the doctor and nurses would have none of it.
They had both purposely completely avoided the topic of Seth's leaving and Becky's attempted suicide but they were both determined to bring it up on their way home.
As they settled into the car, Becky summons up the courage to speak up first.
" Seth it hurt... breathing, feeling, I just couldn't get myself to let you go no matter how hard i tried to convince myself that I was better off without you" Becky begins tearfully. " You not only broke my heart Seth... You broke me" she adds in a small voice.
" Dove, I get why you feel so bad and trust me I feel so bad about that but Becky, you were the second only woman I ever let myself develop feelings for... Even trust, and seeing you with Chris... The exact same Chris killed me" Seth begins in a remorseful but pained tone. " And every thing Chris told me, about how you guys kissed and you moaned and I am incapable of keeping you happy... the words got into my head,it messed me up really bad. I was jealous, I was angry at myself, I was angry at you...I was just screwed up here" Seth says pointing at his forehead.
" You said second" Becky points out thoughtfully. " I know you've had lots of flings with girls but never anything serious, so who's the girl and how is Chris related?" Becky reasons out loud and asks Seth curiously.
Seth takes in a deep breath, preparing himself for his next words. "I loved her..." He begins with a crack in his voice. " She meant every thing to me and I was more than ready to do anything and everything for her, I was even planning a proposal,then she met another guy, cheated on me with him... over and over again, when I found out...all I wanted to know was why, she claimed to be in love with him and I let her go if only that would make her happy, that is after beating the shit out of the guy.
I made the exact same mistake I made with you with her, I walked away. And the consequences were fatal. He dumped her after using her and getting her pregnant.
I'll never forget her last words to me over a phone call, she said, "Seth I am so sorry for ever letting you go but it's too late to turn back, I already have his seed inside of me...I love you" with that the phone line went dead and I just had a terrible feeling so I drove to her apartment as fast as I could only to find her...her dieing body..." Seth says, the tears flowing down freely by now, Becky holds onto his hand supportively.
"I called for the ambulance but it got delayed and before it could arrive... she... she...died..." With that he bursts into full blown tears and Becky holds him close till his sobs subside.
"So that's why you ran to the hospital instead of calling the ambulance?" Becky asks quietly and Seth nods. " So I'm guessing the guy is Chris?" Becky asks thoughtfully and Seth nods once more, wiping the tears from his face.
" Nobody could say a thing against him because his family had all the power and money, not your normal kind but the bloody and dangerous kind. Nobody dared double cross him or anyone related to him" Seth adds with disgust.
" Chris lied to you, I didn't kiss him back neither did I ever moan... I only do that with you" Becky says suggestively, trying to cheer Seth up, Seth smirks proudly and says," I do know how to make a girl beg for it on her knees, don't I?" He asks and Becky blushes punching him lightly on the shoulder.
" Dove... I really am very sorry...." Seth starts but Becky cuts him off saying, " it's all right..." But Seth returns the favour by cutting her off and saying, " no,let me talk, I need you to know that I'm never walking away from us ever again" he says pointing at them both. " And just to tell you how serious I am, I got this..." He says bringing out a ring box from his pocket.
