Author's Note: OK, um, well, as far as Kyle's age goes, which somebody asked me, I'm not really sure about how old Becky is, sry, just don't, but I'm thinking and picturing him in my head to be about 2 or 3 years younger than her.

Chapter Eleven

*First Dates, Kisses, & Best Friends*

"If you go out with him you will be breaking the all time first rule of best friendship," Denise angrily informed Michelle as they were in English class the next day, before Teddy happened to arrive, "Besides, you know just as well as I do that you don't belong with him."

"I don't know that," Michelle also informed her, "And besides that, you only think that because he's your ex-boyfriend, and you don't want me to have him, even though you have a new boyfriend, when you dumped Ronnie to go out with this new boyfriend of yours, which happens to be an idiot, I don't see why you even gave up Ronnie in the first place."

"Dude, is this five months ago?" Teddy inquired as he walked into the classroom to hear the last sentence of Michelle's argument.

"No, this is YOUR best friend not agreeing to cancel her date with Ronnie," Denise said angrily, sticking her tongue out at Michelle.

"What?" Teddy asked, confused, looking to Michelle to make it all make sense.

"Ronnie called and asked me out," Michelle explained, "And YOUR best friend says I can't go, even though YOUR best friend is the one who dumped him."

"This sounds like a conversation I should really avoid," Teddy wisely decided to stay out of it, turning around as the teacher walked in.

"I am going on this date," Michelle said, "And there's nothing you can do to stop me."

Becky looked around the set of Wake Up San Francisco, ever since that phone call from the girl named Katie on Wednesday she couldn't stop thinking about how much her husband had betrayed her. Yet, she wasn't sure if it was because he was dead, but she almost couldn't believe that he had been cheating on her. He wasn't like that. He always announced his love for her.

But, just in case he was cheating on her she wanted to make sure that he knew that she wasn't going to just sit back and take it, even if he was dead. True, he'd only been dead for a month and she still missed him more than anything, but Kyle had seemed interested in her, and even though he seemed a little younger, he was very cute.

So, once she spotted him she marched right up to him and said, "Hey Kyle."

"Hey Becky," he greeted as he turned around, Becky wasn't for sure, but she could almost see a little blush appearing on his cheeks as he greeted her.

"Look, I know you just started here and you might find this question a bit odd," Becky started, then took a deep breath, "But I was wondering if you'd like to catch some dinner with me tonight?"

"What?" he asked, amazed, "But, just, but, you know what, I won't ask questions, sure, I'll have dinner with you tonight."

***

"Ronnie, we need to talk," a voice behind him said. He turned around to see an upset and angry Michelle. Ronnie had an awfully huge feeling that he knew what this was about. He knew from the beginning that Denise wouldn't like the idea of his going out with Michelle, but he just couldn't help himself, she was gorgeous, besides, Denise had broken up with him, its not like he had dumped her to go out with Michelle.

"It's about Denise, isn't it?" Ronnie asked, courageously, "She probably doesn't want us going out, does she?"

"No, and while I think I have perfect reason to go out with you I also try and think about how I would feel in her situation, and trust me, I would not like it a bit," Michelle nervously said as they began to walk down the hall together.

"Michelle," Ronnie started as they stopped at his classroom, taking her hand, "Look, I really want to go on this date tonight, and as far as I'm concerned, she dumped me five months ago, she shouldn't get a say in how I live my life. But just please go on this date with me, after that we can never see each other again, I just have to go out on one date with you."

"OK," Michelle answered, a little uneasily. But she really wanted to go out with him and it wasn't fair that just because he dated her friend that she shouldn't be able to go out with him. Yet, Michelle could also sense something else was bothering her, but she wasn't sure, "Yeah, we're still on for Friday."

***

"Um, you guys, I think I need a breath of fresh air tonight, so I think I'm gonna go see a movie," Becky lied as she tried to come up with an excuse for going to meet Kyle. She knew she couldn't tell the rest of the family that she was going out on a date so soon after her husband's death, it had only been a little over a month ago that he had died. And she knew that really, deep down in her heart, that while she was part of the family, she was only part of the family because of her marriage with Jesse. That was what had brought the family to her, but she didn't mind. She liked being part of a big family, and they still accepted her, even if Jesse was dead, but if they knew she was going out with another guy so soon after his death, she had a feeling she wouldn't be as accepted as she was.

Nicky looked at his mom suspiciously. He knew something was up. He didn't care if Alex was the smart one or not, he hated to say it, but Nicky had more common sense than Alex, and probably more than his mom. She had been acting weird since Wednesday, but Nicky decided not to dwell on it and to just let his mom have a good time wherever she was going.

"Are you sure you don't want any company Beck?" Joey asked. He had seemed very lonely lately, just like he had really lost the most important thing in his life. But Nicky was still the only one who knew about his break-up with Anna, everybody else was too busy making sure Becky was okay with the new baby along the way to notice Joey's sudden change in mood. Yet, Nicky found it obvious, Joey hadn't told a joke since the day of his father's death, and nobody had asked him about it.

"No, I'll be fine, but thanks for the offer Joey," Becky said, giving him a gentle smile. Just then Michelle came down the stairs, looking very pretty in a short, black skirt and red shirt with heels on, but also looking very nervous, or very guilty. By now everybody in the Tanner household knew about her dilemma with Ronnie and Denise, Michelle had even called DJ and Stephanie to ask their advice, to see what she should do, they both had remained vague, which Michelle didn't take as a sign of approval. But, she was going through with it anyways.

Before anybody could say anything to help her feel better about it the phone rang, Danny quickly picked it up and said, rather hurriedly, "Hello?"

He then handed the phone to Michelle, mouthing that it was Denise.

"Denise? What's up?" Michelle asked as she took the phone. She could tell her friend was crying, or had been crying, "Denise?"

"I, Michelle, I just called to wish you good luck on your date tonight," Denise said, through tears, "I realize that I did give up the best thing that ever happened to me. He broke up with me last night, he told me that he had really only wanted to go out with my sister, whom had told him yes before we went out, thinking it was sweet that he was just using me."

"So, you're okay with this?" Michelle asked, trying to come up with something sympathetic and helpful, but really only hearing the first part of Denise's statement.

"Yes, I'm okay with it," Denise said quickly, "I better go, Ronnie should be there soon."

"Yeah, thanks Denise," Michelle said, "And I'm really, really sorry."

"Hey Kyle," Becky greeted as she sat down at the table he had reserved at the fanciest restaurant in this part of town. She was really nervous, she hadn't been on a first date with a guy in a long time.

"Hi Becky," he greeted her softly, looking her up and down. He could tell she was really nervous, and she looked like she might throw up, but to him she was still gorgeous.

"So .., how are you coming along with those cameras?" Becky asked, then she could've almost hit herself. This wasn't date talk, this wasn't stuff you talked about. Her and Jesse had known each other so well that they could talk about anything on dates, but not on your first date. But she wasn't sure what she was supposed to talk about, she just knew that wasn't it.

***

"Wow," Michelle breathed as her and Ronnie entered the same restaurant that Becky had been meeting Kyle at, yet Michelle didn't know Becky was there. As they walked past this table Michelle saw out of the corner of her eye somebody who looked remarkably like Aunt Becky, so she quickly turned around to look, but nobody was weird, so she just shook her head, thinking she was losing her mind.

"What?" Ronnie asked her, as he pulled her chair out for her.

"Nothing, just something I saw," Michelle let it go.

***

"Duck," Becky hissed as she saw Michelle walking towards them, ducking beneath the table and pulling Kyle with her, as they got back up Kyle looked at her strangely.

"What was that all about?" Kyle demanded to know.

"That was my niece," Becky tried to explain.

"And you didn't want her to see you here, because?" Kyle asked, still confused.

"Because my family doesn't know I'm here," Becky said, almost silently, Kyle could barely hear her.

"Wait, you didn't tell anybody that you were coming here tonight?" Kyle asked, sounding a little angry.

"Well, no," Becky said, then gushed, "Just because I didn't know if they could accept it, Jesse was really there family member, I was just an add on. I didn't want them getting mad at me for going out with a guy after only a month without Jesse."

"You know what I think?" Kyle asked, taking her hand, "I think that you aren't ready for this, no just listen to me. I honestly think when you decide to move on, live your complete life without Jesse your family will be okay with it, they aren't putting their lives on hold for Jesse. Neither should you, but I do think that maybe you aren't quite ready to make room in your heart for anybody new, and if you are ready to do that, as much as it pains me to say this, I don't think its with me."

"So, what, are you ending this date?" Becky asked, shocked.

"I'm sorry," Kyle simply said, "But you're not ready, and I can't wait until you are ready, especially since you'll never be ready with me, but do you need a ride home?"

"No, no, I'll just catch a cab," Becky asked, going numb. Maybe what Kyle had said was right, or at least the part about him not being the one for her.

***

"Michelle? What's wrong with you?" Ronnie asked as for what seemed the fiftieth time that night Michelle spaced out, was in her own little world.

Michelle suddenly came back to the conversation at hand, "I'm sorry, I was just thinking, Denise called me, she told me her boyfriend broke up with her, for her sister."

"And that's what your thinking about?" Ronnie asked, feeling a bad part of the conversation coming up.

"I'm sorry," Michelle said, "I can't do this, Denise is right, this is the number one friendship rule, besides Denise needs me, and she's always been there for me when I've needed her the most. Maybe, well, maybe later on, when Denise is ready for me, and can accept it, to go out with you, we can go out again, but I just can't do it now."

Ronnie sighed. One of the things he liked most about Michelle was that she was very loyal to her friends, and she had to be or she wouldn't be the Michelle he knew. Besides, she was right about Denise always being with her, he remembered when Denise had cancelled their date because Michelle's crush had broken her heart. And he could wait for Michelle, he really could try anyways. Or maybe he should just move out of this group of girls.

"Okay, let's take you home then," Ronnie resigned, Michelle gave him a huge smile.

"Thank you so much," Michelle said, "But can we go to Denise's instead? I want to talk to her first."

***

"Michelle?" Denise asked as she opened her front door, Michelle quickly gave her friend a hug.

"I couldn't do it, I couldn't go out with Ronnie," Michelle explained, "Besides, you needed me for a good case of guy bashing."

"But we're missing one element of our guy bashing sessions," Denise explained.

"Teddy," they both said at the same time. They loved having Teddy there, who was the sweetest guy they had ever met, but very much a guy, because he rolled his eyes at them and told them to grow up, saying that someday they were really gonna meet a jerk, and not just the ones in their school.

"Well, why don't you call him and I gotta head home to get my essentials for a sleepover, and then he can come pick me up," Michelle offered.

***

"Back so soon?" Danny asked surprised as Becky came through the back door. She let out a huge sigh.

"Where's the twins?" she asked, evading answering Danny's question.

"They went with Joey to get some ice cream," Danny answered swiftly, "What kinda movie do you see for less than an hour an a half?"

"The good kind," Becky snapped, "Why are you hassling me?"

"Because the producer called," Danny said icily, "Wanting to know how your date with Kyle was going."

Becky groaned, "So, you know? Do you hate me now?"

"What I don't understand is why so soon after his death?" Danny asked, "I mean, your pregnant, and you just lost your husband, why are you back in the swing of things so soon?"

"Well, I got a call from somebody the other day," Becky explained, "It was from a girl, wanting to know when the next time Jesse's band was playing in her town. I think he was cheating on me Danny. And it hurt, and I didn't want to grieve for a man who had cheated on me anymore."

"Becky," Danny said, wrapping her in a hug as she began to cry, "I don't think that Jesse could ever cheat on you if he wanted too."

"But, he was gone all the time," Becky said, through tears, "He could've easily done it. I would've never suspected."

Danny looked down at Rebecca. His co-host. His friend. His best friend's wife. But his best friend was dead. And there was no denying it. He wanted to kiss her. She stood on her tiptoes, reaching towards him as he bent over, and there lips met. They kept kissing, until they felt the presence of somebody else in the kitchen. They broke loose and turned to see Michelle, looking at them in open horror.
