Sorry about Alex and Becky POVs crossing, i couldn't really think of the seperate conversations that would be going on if i did their POVs in seperate chapters so i crossed them over... Hope you don't mind and enjoy!


Becky

I watched as Alex was lead down the corridor by Eve to have what was supposed to a private conversation.

How a conversation in the middle of a corridor could be private I don't know.

I felt sorry for Alex, after spending 22 years with her I knew a lecture with Eve was not something to go about lightly. Especially with an expression like that on her face.

I hoped she wasn't going to be too harsh on him; we were only talking after all. She couldn't blame me for talking to a guy I liked.

I watched as Eve nodded towards me and I saw Alex's cute face crease into a frown.

I watched their conversation for a while, it was clear Alex was getting upset. Well he looked it from the way he kept sighing and throwing his hands in the air.

Someone tapped my shoulder and I turned, I saw a cameraman.

"Hi," he said smiling brightly at me. "You're the new interviewer right?"

"Yeah," I said, glancing back at Alex and Eve for a second. "How can I help you?"

"I just wanted to run by how the schedule is going to be working over the next few weeks."

"Ok!" I said, turning my back on Alex and Eve to give this guy my full attention.


Alex

"I'm serious Riley, don't mess her about!" Eve said to me, wagging a finger in my face.

I pushed her hand away and glanced over at Becky who was talking to a cameraman. "Like I'd do that!" I said, my eyes meeting Eve's fierce green ones.

She folded her arms across her chest. "You would do that Riley, I know you, remember?" she said and I slapped a hand against my forehead.

"Yes, I know! But a guy can change can't he?" I asked, getting slightly annoyed with this conversation.

Yes in the past dating never really lasted too long for me, but I was a changed man now.

At least I thought I was.

I sighed and Eve frowned at me.

"You'd do that for her?" she asked softly.

I nodded. "I'd do it for anyone, looking back I hate what I did, but I can't change the past, I can only change the present and hope that it makes a good future."

Eve smiled. "Do you know that's one of the smartest things I've ever heard come out of your mouth Riley." She said and I laughed.

"Always manage to bring an insult into it huh?" I asked and she nodded.

"I kinda have to, I mean its you, I always insult you!"

I smiled. "Good old Eve!" I said and she grinned at me.


Becky

"Ok thank you!" I said and the cameraman turned and left.

I heard laughter coming from Alex and Eve and I turned.

They seemed pretty happy.

Good, it meant Alex was no longer in trouble.

Alex caught my eye again and smiled causing Eve to turn and do the same.

Eve turned back to Alex and he nodded. Eve waved to me before walking off.

Alex came back over.

"I take it you're not in that much trouble then?" I asked and he grinned.

"Who said I was gonna get into trouble?"

"Eve looked like she wanted to kill you!" he laughed then pulled a serious face.

"That's true." He said, biting his lip. "But she didn't kill me, thank God!" he said looking up at the ceiling.

"Stop it!" I said slapping him playfully. "Don't joke about God." I said, putting on a serious face and wagging a finger at him.

He swatted my hand away. "It's rude to point!"

"It's rude to hit a girl."

"What?" he asked, struggling to hold back his laughter. "When did I hit a girl?"

"Just a second ago!"

"I didn't hit a girl!"

"Are you calling me a guy?"

"No, I'm saying I didn't hit a girl!"

"But you hit me!"

"I didn't!" Alex said, his voice getting higher making me giggle.

"Um, yes you did."

"Um, no I didn't."

"You did!" I said, crossing my arms. I wasn't the type of girl to give up easily.

"When?" he asked.

"Just a minute ago when I did this." I wagged my finger at him again.

"How is this," he said, swatting my hand away again. "Hitting a girl?"

"You're slapping it away, slapping is a form of hitting!"

"Yeah, but this is hitting a girl." He said, his hand forming a fist which he swung towards me.

Naturally I squealed and flinched.

Alex laughed and I opened my eyes.

"Like I would hit a girl!" I glared at him. "Properly." He added with a shy grin.

"Good." I said smiling.

"Although you do deserve a punch."

"Excuse me?"

"Hey you're the crazy girl who tried to hit me with your microphone, just saying!"

"Ok I'll give you that one!" I said and he smiled.

A security man came over to us.

"Riley, you're up next buddy." He said, patting Alex on the shoulder and acknowledging me with a nod.

"Ok," he said and the man left. "Guess I've gotta go, you'll be watching, right?" he asked, pointing to the monitor on the wall.

"Sure." I said nodding and he smiled, before turning to leave.
