So this is a new a different story on Loren and Eddies epic love story. Their parents are getting married and their personalities are not like they are suppose to be, but they might become who they are suppose to be through out the story. Even I'm not sure yet, all I know is that I love playing with this type of story right now. Hope you guys like it!
Things are not the way they're suppose to be. The sweet and kind Loren was now rebellious and bitchy, things had definitely changed over the passed three years since her father had left. Her grades had started to slip after about 7 months and her style changed about 6 months after that. The shy girl that didn't want to show that much of herself and that kept out of the spotlight as much as she could was gone. Now it was short skirts, bold colors, harder makeup and a more bitchy attitude that was everything people saw in her. Not that she really cared any more, her father's departure had change her to the core. At least that's what everyone saw.
Eddie was the bad boy that had stopped believing in pretty much anything but screwing around. When his mother died about 6 years ago things had taken a turn for the worse. Already being in his rebellious teen years when she passed didn't help things. Instead of getting over it and finding the real him he grew into the character even more when high school came around. Being a real player with a pending record deal only made every girl want him even more.
Loren was in her room getting ready for school when her mom called her into the kitchen. Great, what is it this time.. She thought as she took one last look at herself in the mirror before exiting her room.
Loren: "What is it mom?" She asked, not really caring.
Nora: "Could you please sit down with me for a minute, I have something I was gonna tell you last night but I didn't came around to it." She said nervously.
Loren: She took a seat across from her mother at the dinner table. "I'm sitting, now what is it? Melissa should be here any minute so.." She looked impatiently at her mother.
Nora: "I didn't wanna tell you like this but I've been putting it up for a while now.." She took a deep breath. "I'm engaged!" She said quickly, like ripping of a band-aid.
Loren: "You're what?!" She said as she stood up in a split second after Nora's confession. "I never even knew you were dating anyone!" She yelled at her, not really sure what her mother was thinking.
Nora: "I know, but you haven't exactly been open to that fact ever since he left. I didn't want to bother you with it unless it was getting serious and well last week he asked me to marry him and well.. I said yes." She waited for her daughters response.
Loren: "You've been engaged for a week and didn't tell me?! I don't know what's worse, that fact that you got engaged without telling me or the actual fact that you're engaged!" She said and rushed of to her room to get her bag before heading out through the front door.
Eddie came down to the weirdest scenery he had in years. His dad was pouring coffee in two coffee mugs and placed them on the dinner table that was full of food. It must have been at least 4 different berries, both waffles and pancakes, two juices, milk and coffee. Something was up and Eddie knew it. He walked slowly over towards his father before speaking up.
Eddie: "Not that I enjoy your sudden attempt at a family breakfast dad but you're about twenty minutes and 6 years to late with that one." He said as he picked up one of the coffee mugs and took a sip.
Max: "Well I had something I wanted to tell you before you got to school today, I've kind of been putting it of. Not entirely my fault though." He defended himself with at the end.
Eddie: "Okay, shoot." He answered calmly not really know the weight of the news that was about to hit him.
Max: "So you know that I've been seeing someone for a while right?" He asked waiting for his sons agreement. Eddie simply nodded. "Good, cause I-kind-of-asked-her-to-marry-me-and-she-and-her-daughter-might-be-moving-in-here-tomorrow." He said quickly just to get everything out in the open before his son could interrupt him.
Eddie: "You actually got engaged to a woman I never met? I don't even know what to say... Is it worse that you didn't tell me until last minute or is it that you are actually re-marrying?" He said before he stormed of through the front door to his car.
Loren: "You are never going to believe what my mother decided to drop on me this morning!" Her adrenalin was still pumping hard.
Mel: "What?" She simply asked not really having the patience for guessing.
Loren: "She's freaking engaged!" She started to panic again.
Mel: She lost focus from the road for a second and almost hit a streetlight as she screamed back at her friend. "She's what? With who?"
Loren: Mel's last question hit her, she never really gave her mom any time to tell her anything else. "Yeah, I'm not really sure. I just had to get out of there as soon as possible."
Mel: "I get that but still, maybe he's like super hot or something. I mean than I get why she would get engaged so fast. Or maybe she has to get married because she preggars!" Her last words didn't sit right with the best friend sitting next to her.
Loren: "I doubt it's the last one, if it is I'm so moving out of there. There's no way I'm gonna let a baby ruin me senior year!" She was getting really upset.
Mel: "I get it, chill Lo. Maybe this new "father" of yours might have a super hot son and you could take full advantage of him to make this thing more bearable. I mean then you get something out of this marriage too."
Loren: "You know that's called incest once they're married right?" She chuckled for the first time on through that conversation.
Mel: "It's not like you're gonna be really blood siblings. But if you turn him down I'm happy to take him!" She said with a smile as she pulled up at the school parking lot.
Loren: "We don't even know he has a son yet Mel." She sight.
Mel: "Fine, just tell me to say "I told you so" when you meet this beautiful son of his" She said proudly on their way to the lookers.
Ian: "You can't just tell me that nothing's up when your face looks like.. that" He said and gestured at his friends face.
Eddie: "Let's just say that my so called family just got bigger.." Ian hated when he was cryptic but this time he kind of got it.
Ian: "Wait your father met someone? Like someone that's actually gonna stick around?" He asked surprisingly.
Eddie: "More like he got engaged and she and her daughter are moving in to the house tomorrow.." He sight, he wasn't sure of what to do with this situation.
Ian: "Hey look at the bright side, maybe this daughter might be super hot and she will be living with you. And we both know what that means.. right?" He asked as he nudged his buddy's shoulder in hopes for the right response.
Eddie: "That could get interesting.. But what if she's like six and super annoying instead?" He still had the thought of a hot girl in his head.
Ian: "I'd stick with the hot daughter for now and I know you do too so don't even try to deny it." He said with confidence as Eddie just shrugged his shoulders. He really knew his best friend too well. "So who is this future stepmother of yours anyway? I mean that way we could find out more about this daughter of hers." Okay he was getting to into this, were Eddies only thought.
Eddie: "I never got time to ask, I wasn't really in the mood to ask.." He looked down at the floor. He still didn't regret his decision too walk away this morning, he needed to wrap his mind around the idea of this whole thing.
The guys were now making their way now the hallway to their lookers in silence, until Ian brought up all the ways that this marriage could be good. Eddie had to agree with some of his ideas though, Ian always knew how to look on the bright side.. if it involved booze, sex and money.
Ian: "Now if.. lets say she was moving in with me I would so not think twice about sleeping with her." He said and pointed to this girl they passed by in the hallway. He couldn't help but let his eyes stay on her a couple seconds more than necessary, when he finally looked away he hoped that Eddie hadn't notice.
Eddie looked over at the girl and knowing who she was just by the amount of stares in that directions. It was Mel and the friend next to her was Loren and they were maybe the hottest girls at their school but they still wouldn't go for any of them. No matter how much they worked for it. They weren't like the rest of hot girls at school that would put out for anything. Then again they were probably the only girls neither of them had slept with.. yet.
Eddie: "You know that's never gonna happen right?" He just looked over at his friend who had to make another longing gaze at the brunette down the hall. "Just forget about it man" He added as he opened his looker and took out the books he needed for the first class of the day.. History.
Ian: "You know that no one can get any one of those two out of their heads once they're in there.." He said dreamingly, which surprised both of them enough to snap him out it just a second later.
Eddie: "mhm.. just don't do that during class. If even you notice your day dreaming I think they will too." He teased him as they started to make their way to class.
Mel: "Okay, I know that you're suppose to be honored to have Ian Wilson and Eddie Duran looking our way but the lingering is getting a little to much." She giggled at the look at Ian's face.
Loren: "You know that by that look you could get him to do anything and I do mean anything for you." She teased her best friend and couldn't help but take her expression and turn it to a question. "But you seem to already have tested that idea haven't you?"
Mel: She fast turned away from the guys direction to bury her face in her looker. "I have no idea what you're talking about there Lo."
Loren: "uhum.. Sure you're not." She knew that Mel was gonna tell her at some point of the day. She looked at her friend with a knowing look.
Mel: "Stop that! Okay? Let's just get to class so you can try and turn your D into a C so you can go out with me this weekend!" She really knew how to distract that best friend of her, especially when she needed her to think about anything else but her secret with Ian.
Loren: "I think that with everything that she has dumped at me this morning I can be forgiven for a weekend of fun!" She smiled as they walked to class.
Mel: "That is true and this weekend is going to be amazing since this new club is opening on the strip and we are going!" She couldn't help her excitement.
Loren: "How did you managed that Mel?" She was always surprised by her friends contacts to get them into places.
Mel: "I have my ways" She said proudly as she took the seat behind Loren.
Loren's phone buzzed in her pocket and she regretted even picking it up once she read mom on the screen and even more so when she read the text. She just groaned and put her phone in the hands of her best friend.
Mel: "You're moving?" She started to panic "No, you just can't move away from me!"
Loren: "I didn't think it would happen as soon as tomorrow.." she started to feel the sadness run over her along with a tear on her cheek.
Mel: "But we still in the same city and you're not changing schools are you?"
Loren: "I'm not letting that happen. This is our senior year and we're doing it together." She said standing her ground.
Mel: "Good, cause I'm not sure I could make it through the rest of the school year without you Lo!" She said and pulled her into a hug just as the teacher walked in and broke their hug apart by a cough.
The rest of the class got by fast for once. Loren's mom kept sending texts to her through out the hour, dropping even more bombs on her. The fact that she was packing up her thing today so they could get moved to their new house tomorrow had gotten her so worked up so she couldn't focus in class but once her mom reassured her that she wasn't moving that far and wasn't changing schools she didn't hate the idea of it as much. It was more upsetting that she'd be having dinner with that fiancé, that word didn't come easy to her, of hers and his son tonight. With that, confirmed Mel's theory and she wouldn't shut up about it taking one step closer to being true.
Ian kept glancing over to his right to look at Mel through the entire class. There was so something he wasn't telling me and I needed to find out what it w.. My thoughts were cut short by a text form my father with more news about my life. Dinner, tonight to meet Nora and her daughter. We're leaving at five so don't be late! Great, well at least I get to meet them before everything goes down. And I can put Ian's theory to the test, as long as she was legal and semi hot I was getting under her skin one way or an other..
Ian: "Mate, where did you just go of to?"He broke Eddies line of though which reminded him of his previous thought about Ian and Mel..
Eddie: "Dad just texted me to be home before five to go and meet the new fam.."He said, keeping his thoughts on Ian and what ever he was hiding.
Ian: "You are so getting a hot roommate."He half sung
Eddie: "Speaking of hot.. what is this thing with you and Mel about?" Ian was about to object and there was no way he was in the mood of arguing until he caves and would be telling him the truth anyway. "And don't try to deny it cause be the way you've been looking at her all day and the look she's been throwing you at time.. just tell me man!"It may have come out a little harsher than he intended.
Ian: "Fine, it happened a few days ago and I just can't get her out of my head. She's not like any other girl you know. She actually called me on my crap"He said as if he was talking himself out of a punishment.
Eddie: "Wow, not what I expected to hear but now I only have one question left before I can leave you to your staring at Mel thing you've got going on." Ian shot him a look.. you know the I'm so not, just shut up look. "How the hell could you keep that a secret from me? hell from anyone? She is Melissa Sanders for crying out loud!"He was almost screaming at the end of it and some heads turned their way with weird look on their faces.
Ian: "That's why.. and it's kind of been hot sneaking around. Like it's forbidden and that only makes you want it even more, you know."He said it more as a statement than a question but sure we all know how that is. Even if Eddie hadn't experienced it himself there was always the forbidden love movies that he had been dragged to way too many times by dates.
Eddie: "Fine but still.. I have a hard time believing it."He tried to picture it and it didn't took long until the thought of them together seemed kind of perfect. Ian brought him back to reality when he realized that Mel and Loren was looking at them.
Ian: "Great Eddie.. now she know that you know and I... I'll talk to you later."He said as he started to walk over to Mel, probably to explain why I knew even if I shouldn't.. And if Loren hadn't figured it out already my sharing it with the rest of the hallway may have helped her with that.
Mel and I was by our lookers to put away the way to heavy history books from class. I was so happy that we didn't get any homework this week, I mean with everything that's going on right now I don't know if I could handle a bunch of homework on top of that. My thoughts got cut of by the giggles from Mel as she looked at her phone.

Loren: "What's so funny missy?"She said as she closed her looker.
Mel: "Oh, nothing.."She answered quickly and shoved her phone back into her pocket.
Loren: "Nothing my ass! You have been giggling all day, looking at your phone more than usually and you and Ian have been sharing glances all day! Now explain!"I demanded, there was no way she was getting out of this.
Mel: "Oh.. you saw that.."I just nodded wanting her to explain. "Fine, I've kind of been seeing him for a week now.."She ducked away like I was gonna attack her.
Loren: "Not what I was expecting but okay.."She was gonna say something more but their focus shifted to the other end of the hall by none other that Eddie Duran practically screaming out Melissa's name. It only meant that either Ian had cracked or Eddie had figured out what Loren pretty much had too. "So I'm guessing that Eddie just found out too.."She said looking over at Melissa who just kept looking at Ian who just found her too.
Mel: "Great.. now we're gonna have to talk and that's the last thing I want right now."She started to hyperventilate.
Loren: "I don't really get the problem. Cause by the way he keeps looking at you, you can get him to do anything you'd want him too."She had to state the obvious.
Mel: "That's the problem Lo.. I don't know what I want from this.. from him. I mean sneaking around and all that stuff is so hot but to take that out of the dark and show people isn't really the same and you know it."She was really nervous about her own feelings and Loren could tell. She truly liked him and taking that out of the comfort zone of their privacy and out for the world to see isn't the easiest thing to do.
Loren: "I get it but you're gonna have to talk to him about it cause this is your relationship and you are the ones that have to figure everything out."She took a quick look over at the boy and saw Ian waking over to them. "And you're gonna have to do it sooner than later cause he's walking over to us right now and I have to go to class."She started to walk of "I'll see you at lunch!"She added as she turned a corner. She might kill me for that later but once they talk things over she will be thanking me. If not right now at least in a few hours.. or day.. well at least someday.
I hope you guys like it, all the drama of finding out their new siblings is up in the next chapter together with the Ian and Mel drama thing. And things will get interesting, trust me on that one! Cause we all know that the Leddie love is inevitable!
