Everybody's Fool
Chapter 43: Stalker Revealed
I do NOT own Victorious
Ring…ring…ring…
"Hello?" Cat answered her house phone with her 6 week old in her arms.
"Hey."
She rolled her eyes at the voice of her –not sure if he still is- fiancée. "You just called an hour ago."
"I miss you and my handsome son…how is he? I know it's only been an hour, but…"
"I understand." Cat couldn't help, but smile. Anthony is Beck's pride and joy and he smiles so much when he sees his son. She's not jealous at all. It's so sweet. Beck had moved back in, but he sleeps in the guest bedroom because she was still pissed at him. But Beck loves to spend his free time with Anthony, it's adorable. "He's still good. He spit up some when I was burping him, but that's normal. He's running low on diapers, so I'm going to go out and get some."
"Wait! I can do that."
"No, I need to get out of the house." She told him sternly. "I've been trapped here for the past…oh let's see, when was Anthony born?"
He chuckled. "You have a point. And Anthony hasn't really been out, so I guess it'll be good for him. Can you get the car seat in okay?"
"Yeah, I'll be fine." Cat confirmed as she bounced Anthony in her arms a little. "I'm going to go get ready. I'll talk to you later. I love-" She almost blurted that out…she's angry with him. She was going to be stubborn this time. "Um…bye."
He sighed deeply. "I love you too, sweet angel…love you both. Give Anthony a kiss for me. Bye." And they hung up.
Cat looked to her son, who was looking at her with his beautiful brown eyes. He was so much like Beck, it's unbelievable. So handsome, so loving. Such a sweet boy. "Your daddy says hi." She cooed at him, tickling him a little. "Let's go to the store, Anthony." She kissed his forehead and headed to her bedroom.

…
Ding, dong
Cat finished straightening her hair as she left her bathroom and saw Anthony still napping on her bed, surrounded by pillows so he wouldn't get hurt by anything. She straightened out her romper that was strapless as she went to the front door. She opened the door and saw Robbie there, with a large bouquet of flowers. He had a sickening grin on his face that made Cat nervous. "Robbie? Uh, nice to see you." She gave him a hug. "I'm actually going to leave pretty- mmm!" She winced as he crashed his lips on her, dragging her back into the house and locking the door behind him after he dropped the flowers to the floor. "Ow!" She screamed into his mouth, but he dug his tongue into her mouth. "Stop!"
"I'm tired of waiting." Robbie growled as he pinned her wrists above her head. He positioned himself so she couldn't kick him. He leaned down to kiss her neck.
Cat burst into tears. She looked and saw what kind of flowers he brought.
Red roses.
"You've been the one stalking me." She mumbled out as he put his hand inside her romper from the top.
"Yes." He growled into her ear.
Suddenly the door opened and Beck ran in, looking worried and panicked. He saw Cat pinned to the wall with a bruising grip by his so-called best friend and now he saw nothing, but red. "You bastard!" He snarled as he grabbed Robbie's hair and pulled him off Cat. He punched Robbie straight in the face. "I'm going to murder you!" But when he saw Cat slid to the ground, he stopped his rampage and let him fall to the floor as he went to Cat's side. "Baby…"
She was breathing heavily as she reached for him. "Beck…I'm sorry…"
"Don't be." He kissed her forehead and then stood back up when Robbie was getting to his feet. "How dare you do this to us…how could you?" Beck's voice cracked. "This woman is my fiancée, Robbie, and I thought we were best friends. How could you do this to me? Betray me?"
Suddenly Robbie brought something out of his pocket and aimed it directly at Beck's chest.
Cat gasped. "BECK!" She screamed. When she stood up, it startled Robbie so he aimed the gun immediately at her. "AH!"
"No, no, no, no, no, please, no!" Beck desperately begged, his eyes straight on the gun. "Robbie, don't pull that trigger. She's a new mom. Do you want to take her away from her son? Do you want Anthony to be motherless?"
Robbie frowned. He knew what it was like to be motherless… "No…I don't want him to be fatherless either." He put the gun down and unloaded it. "Anthony means a lot to me. I want him happy. I'm sorry. I just was selfish. I love Cat."
"I know, but I love her more and you know it." Beck told him, taking the gun and ammo out of his grasp carefully and stepping back. "You love her as a sisterly love. I love her with all my heart. She's my whole world, next to my son. And we're a family…and Cat and I are getting married. We have a son together. I love her."
Robbie nodded. "Keep the gun…"
"Alright." Beck said.
Robbie looked to Cat, who was shaking. "I'm sorry."
She hiccupped, attempting not to cry. "P-p-please g-g-go…" Robbie sighed, but did as he was told. Once he was gone, Cat ran into Beck's arms and cried into his chest. He immediately wrapped his arms tightly around her, kissing her head, almost crying himself. "I was so scared! He was going to shoot you! Or me! He's been stalking me! Beck, oh my god!" She collapsed to her knees, taking Beck with her. He didn't mind as he held her close to him. "I wouldn't have seen my son again…or you."
"I would've jumped in front of you." He said into her hair. "You know that. I could never let the mother of my son and the love of my life die."
"You would've?" She sincerely was confused. "Why?"
"What the hell do you mean "why?" when you know good and well why I would?" Beck asked, a bit surprised at her question. "I love you…how could you ask such a thing?"
"I've been treating you horribly." Cat told him. "How could you still-" Suddenly his lips were on hers in a harsh, but loving and gentle way, kissing her passionately. Cat couldn't help, but give in. She's missed this. And him. Once they released, they stared into each other's eyes. "Beck…"
"Yes, my sweet angel?"
"No offense, but why are you here?" She asked. "You weren't supposed to get off work until 4."
"Our bond." He smiled. "I just had this awful feeling in my stomach and heart. My brain kept screaming for me to call someone in and get home ever since I left the house this morning, which is why I kept calling. I didn't want to scare you, so I didn't tell you why I was calling. Yes, I missed you guys, but more of the reason was that." He put his hands on either side of her face. "Cat, don't you understand we're meant to be?"
Cat smiled and nodded, pulling him in for a kiss again…but suddenly the excitement made her lightheaded. "Beck…" She breathed out after she made him let her go. She swayed. "Ow…" She put her hands on her stomach, feeling the hunger pains. "Help…"
"Cat, what's happening?" Beck's eyes went wide with fear as he held onto her when she fell to the side. He cradled her. "Cat? Cat!" He shook her a little.
"I'm so sorry…" She whispered, looking apologetic. "Please don't hate me for this…"
"You haven't eaten, have you?" He asked, his eyes full of hurt.
"No…I do, but only when the others come over and eat with us…" She gasped out. "Please…I'm sorry, but I just wanted to be beautiful for you. I know I've been fat ever since I had Anthony."
"What?" His voice cracked. "How could you say such a thing? You're beautiful and tiny. Cat, you're gorgeous and perfect. I love you."
"No, I'm not."
"Cat, what the hell do you see when you look in the mirror?" Beck asked her. "I don't understand." But he was beginning to realize…Cat was in this too deep. This eating disorder was no longer a reason to "lose weight" because of the emotional abuse her dance teacher had put her through. No, this was now becoming psychological… "I need to take you to a doctor."
"I'm fine…I don't-"
"Not that kind of doctor." He admitted, silencing her. "A therapist."
Cat gasped, attempting to leave his arms, but he refused to let her go. "How could you say that?" She screeched.
Suddenly Anthony was crying.
Cat pushed Beck away, and she stood back up, running to her room. She picked Anthony up and he immediately stopped crying, but Beck ran in and Cat realized he had tears. "Cat, look at that little human in your arms." Beck whispered, but she heard him clearly. Cat did as he said, seeing that innocent face staring back up at her. "An eating disorder can kill you if you keep this up…and you were scared only minutes ago because Robbie was going to kill us. You wouldn't have seen Anthony again. Do you remember saying that?" She nodded. "Well, then you need to knock this off because if you keep this up, you're going to die…" He shuddered at the thought. "And then Anthony will be motherless…and I know you don't want that."
"I don't." Cat's voice softly said. She stared into Anthony's shiny eyes for a few more minutes, silently having a mental conversation with him, shockingly. He was begging for her to get help. She nodded. "Okay…"
Beck sighed in relief. "I'll schedule you an appointment." He walked up and kissed her head, pulling her and his son closer. "Thank you."
Next chapter…let's just say Beck's going to scare at work when he's there alone and a stranger comes in…and he's aggressive…uh-oh…will the robber pull the trigger? …nice preview, huh? Lol.
Random Fact About DA: I have my own version of "Yankee Doodle"… "Yankee doodle went to town, riding on a pony…I may not know the rest of the words to this song, but at least everybody loves me!" Lol, I used to sing that all the time in school and I still do at work to make people laugh. Don't ask how I came up with that…Lord could only know. Lol.
