"This coming from the woman who walks out of a bedroom with another woman's fiancé," Bekah pointed out.
"But nothing happened with me and Jack," Lexi said standing her ground.
"Oh stop trying to act so innocent!" Bekah said to Lexi raising her voice.
Lexi narrowed her eyes at her dangerously. "Me? Act innocent after everything you've done to sabotage my life?"
Bekah scoffed. "You don't even need my help. You f**k it up enough on your own."
"I really don't need to hear this from you," Lexi said shaking her head and turning the other direction.
"Bekah just leave her alone. Don't you think you've done enough damage?" Ramsey asked glaring at his sister.
"I am your sister!" she cried staring at him in disbelief. "I am only trying to look out for you."
"By trying to hurt my girlfriend?" he asked looking at her like she was mentally impaired.
"By protecting you," she said grasping for straws.
"Oh that always worked out so well in your favor," Lexi said rolling her eyes. "Going to convince another girl to get an abortion to save your skin?" Lexi spat at her.
The room went silent. She hadn't even meant to say that out loud, but something about Bekah just made her snap. She hated her with everything she had. She wanted nothing more than for her to live a long and miserable life filled with heartache and loneliness. It was what she deserved after all the deception and lies. She wanted to tear her down as much as she had torn Lexi down. She knew it was wrong and that she should take the higher ground, but she just hadn't been able to.
The words had just slipped right out. She knew it was wrong to bring something like that up especially when it was still such a touchy subject for Ramsey. But what kind of person convinces her best friend to have an abortion when it's her brother's child? Moreover, she didn't even let Ramsey have a say in the decision. He didn't even know about the baby. She was so sick of this woman getting away with everything when she was truly the evil person in this situation.
"What…are…you…talking about?" Bekah asked her voice shaking.
"Lexi," Ramsey hissed grabbing her elbow.
"What is she talking about Ramsey?" Bekah demanded spinning around to face him.
"You know what I'm talking about. Stop acting so ignorant of the situation," Lexi responded. Ramsey's grip on her elbow tightened and she snapped her mouth close. She had gone too far. He didn't talk about these things. He didn't bring these things up, and here she had just announced the details to an entire group of people. Even if no one else really knew what was going on they were sure to think the worst. This seemed to be a conversation he had avoided having with Bekah. Lexi had figured they had already had it out about his suspicions that Bekah had convinced Parker to have an abortion. How wrong could she be?
"How does this involve me?" Bekah asked seething.
"We can talk about this later," Ramsey said pleading with Bekah not to continue the conversation.
"Hell no we can't. I want everything out on the table. What is this bitch talking about?" she growled.
"That's my girlfriend Bek," he said warningly.
"Hey!" Lexi cried at the same time.
"Well start answering questions then," she said angrily.
Ramsey sighed. He couldn't believe that of all days to have this conversation, it was going to be today on Bekah's wedding day. "I know what happened with Parker," he said hesitantly hating himself for bringing this up.
"What happened with Parker?" she growled
"That she didn't miscarry," he said barely louder than a whisper.
Bekah's mouth popped open and her face blanched. Even through her coat of makeup, Lexi could tell that she had lost all color in her skin. She looked shell-shocked that the conversation had come around to this topic. "She did Ramsey."
Ramsey shook his head. He knew that she would say that. He knew that she would deny it. This is the exact reason he had never discussed this with Bekah. He knew her horrible secret, but he hadn't meant for the world to know about it. He hadn't ever wanted her to know that he knew. He had been furious enough with himself after it had happened because he hadn't known…hadn't been able to stop it. He hadn't wanted anyone else to feel that kind of pain. He hadn't wanted Bekah to be involved. "She didn't miscarry Bek. I know she didn't."
"How could you know that?" she asked her hands shaking in front of her. "You weren't even there."
"I don't want to argue about this with you. God knows I've argued with Parker enough about it. She'll never admit to it and neither will you, but I know what I know," he said with a sad shrug.
"I can't believe you're bringing this up," she said turning the full force of her anger on Lexi. "You have no right to go digging into other people's lives."
"Oh that's rich coming from you," Lexi said rolling her eyes. "Didn't you ask me to Atlanta just to f**k with me?"
"I didn't ask you to come here. Actually, I never invited you to my wedding. I would have much preferred you stay away from me and my family," she growled.
"You don't get a choice in the matter," Lexi said looking up at Ramsey. She knew that it was probably a bad move to challenge Bekah. After all she was a major bitch and who knew what she would reduce to in an effort to hurt Lexi again. But there just wasn't anything left for Bekah to say about Lexi. She had no more cards left. Lexi wasn't exactly going around telling her secrets about her life. She had tried to steer clear of Bekah for a solid year hoping that it had paid off.
"Maybe I don't, but Ramsey does," Bekah said with a sinister smile that Lexi recognized. "If he knew the truth about you…"
Ramsey shook his head stepping between his sister and his girlfriend. "Would you both calm down? Bekah, Lexi is right. You have no say in whether or not I see Lexi. Lexi, Bekah is right in that you had no right to bring up this kind of stuff in front of everyone. You both need to calm down. It is your wedding day. I can't believe you're even here right now having this argument," he said in disgust.
Lexi took a step back from Bekah. She knew that she had been out of line, but she hadn't been able to see anything other than Bekah when she was fighting with her. It was like they were meant to argue. She was blinded to the rest of the world. Her vision went blurry. Her senses were dulled. All she could see was the bitch that was standing in front of her and the anger that bubbled up at the very mention of her name. But she couldn't be that person in front of Ramsey. It was, after all, his sister. He wasn't just going to completely turn his back on her, even if Lexi thought he should.
