BFP or Evap line?

I posted this in a different thread, but I thought I'd repost here to get some feedback from the group. I'm brand new at this, and I don't know what to make of it:
Omg, omg, omg. Okay, I don't know what to make of this, but--
I took that CVS brand test this morning, and thought it was a BFN (could see a VERY VERY VERY faint line if I squinted), but out of my obsessiveness, looked back on it about an hour afterwards and there is a blue line in the results window. I heard that these tests are notorious for producing evaporation lines like this. I've been told that you have to disregard any lines after 10 minutes of doing the test. But, I also heard evap lines are dull, look like dents, look 'different' than the space around them, and aren't the color that the test is supposed to be. This is a thin line straight up and down, and clearly blue.
I took a FRER right then (mid morning urine), and it came up BFN. I don't know what to make of this. I'm only 9 DPO, and I used FMU with the CVS brand, so maybe there's a possibility that I don't have enough hcg in my urine for it to be detected, except through a concentrated FMU? OR, this has to be the most convincing evap line I've could imagine.
I can't get my camera to take a picture of it because it won't focus so close up. I hope that my description helps!

I know, after my FRER test I took today and seeing a BFN I'm starting to feel out of the game too. :(
I hate to agree about the blue dye tests, but it's true. (obviously not all the time)
One of the difference is the lines.
I'm pretty convinced that was an evaporation line-- I took a Target HPT this morning with FMU and it was BFN. I'm 3-4 days from AF, so I'm pretty sure if I were pregnant and that was truly a BFP, I would have had at least a similar results this morning.
I decided I'm not going to test again until Monday when AF would be late. I'll keep everyone updated! Thanks for your support :)
