Hi babes. So I've been receiving some ideas for a third story. This is an idea a guest gave me, and it's awesome. In this story, Eddie and Chloe were married for a year and now they're getting a divorce. Loren appears as Eddie's lawyer's assistant. I hope you guys like it! Let me know! This chapter will be a bit shorter than the upcoming chapters... So... Please please please please review! * begs for reviews * Enjoy!
Chapter One - I Should Have Listened
Eddie's world was turned upside down. He had just found out that his loving wife; Chloe Carter, had been cheating on him this whole time. The whole time they had been together, and the whole time they had been married. How could someone do that? Someone who claimed to love him and spend the rest of her life with him.
Max had warned him.
Jake had warned him.
Eddie hadn't listened. He should have listened, he wouldn't be in this mess if he had simply listened. Chloe wanted half of everything he owned. Half of his fortune. Like she didn't take enough from him already? She had fooled him for so long.
There was a knock on Eddie's door. That would probably be his lawyer. Eddie had been told that this man was kind of rude, but the very best in the business. And he needed the best lawyer in all of LA. Hell, in all of the world, if he wanted to keep his belongings.
Eddie opened the door and saw a young woman standing there. She was beautiful, dressed in a grey skirt that reached to just above her knees. She was wearing black heels and a blue tank top that made her look less professional, more like her age. Her hair fell perfectly.
"Hi, I'm Loren Tate, mister Davis' assistant," The girl said, she held out her hand and Eddie gladly shook it.
"I'm Eddie-" Eddie began.
"Duran, I know." Loren interrupted, immediately ashamed of saying that. "I'm sorry, I really have to work on my manners." She added.
"No, it's fine." Eddie replied with a smile.
Loren didn't get a chance to reply because a tall man with broad shoulders appeared behind Loren.
"Good day, mister Duran, I'm Jack Davis." He said in a deep voice that suited his appearance perfectly.
"Pleasure to meet you in person." Eddie said as he shook his hand. Eddie has had various conversations with Jack on the phone, he already created a picture in his head of what his lawyer would look like, Eddie had to admit that Jack looked a lot like that picture in his head.
"Likewise." Jack replied before he walked into Eddie's penthouse, closely followed by his beautiful assistant; Loren Tate.
Loren glanced over at Eddie but quickly looked away when she noticed that he had been looking at her the whole time. Loren had, no, still was, a huge fan of Eddie Duran. And now she was really sitting in his living room. But just as mister Davis' assistant. Still, Eddie was even more gorgeous in person.
Stop it Loren, you have a boyfriend. Loren told herself. She had a boyfriend; Dylan Boyd, he had played in a few movies, but was struggling to get back into the business. Loren loved him, so it was wrong to fantasize about Eddie. No matter how gorgeous he was. And boy was he gorgeous.
"Loren, didn't you hear me?" Mister Davis' deep voice parted Loren from her thoughts and fantasies.
"Yes- No, sir I'm sorry." Loren replied as her cheeks turned pink due to Eddie's chuckle.
"Go fetch me a cup of coffee, will you?" Mister Davis asked as well as demanded. Something he always did, Loren was never allowed to be at these kinds of meetings. Something she wanted very badly. She wanted to learn how to be a good lawyer. However, mister Davis never gave her the chance.
"Ya, sure." Loren answered hastily. "Mister Duran, do you want anything?" She added, turning to Eddie.
"No, thank you, and call me Eddie." Eddie replied with a warm smile that send chills up Loren's spine.
Eddie was attracted to Loren. But that was probably just his heart; playing tricks on him. As Jake told him; Eddie couldn't trust his heart right now.
"Alright Eddie, mister Davis, I'll be right back." Loren said, she stood up and gave both of the man a slight nod before walking out of the penthouse.
She had to get coffee. Again. She always had to do the worst jobs for mister Davis. But she had to push through it. Because she was going to be as successful as he was... One day.
"Hey girl." A familiar voice said, and Loren felt a pair of arms wrap around her from the behind.
"Dylan, what are you doing here?" Loren asked as she turned in his arms.
Dylan immediately kissed her, as always. His hands instantly trailed down to her butt, as always.
"Do I need an excuse to see my girl?" Dylan said after Loren had parted from him.
"Of course not, but how did you know where I was?" Loren asked as she started walking again. Dylan put a hand on her butt and walked with her.
Dylan just shrugged. Loren didn't stop to wonder about it because they had reached the coffee shop.
"Do you want to get some coffee with me before you go back to being a fancy lawyer's slave?" Dylan teased.
"I'm not his slave!" Loren defended herself.
"Of course you're not." Dylan replied sarcastically.
Loren just rolled her eyes and didn't reply to his remark.
"Anyways, I'm just here to get mister Davis' coffee." Loren said.
"Babe..." Dylan groaned. "That can wait, I came all this way to spend some time with you." He added, knowing that he'd get everything done if he made Loren feel guilty.
"Okay, but just for a few minutes." Loren replied after a few moments of consideration. She never wanted to get back to mister Davis so fast, but she felt guilty that she wanted to get back to Eddie. To just be around him.
Shake it off, Loren.
"I knew you couldn't resist me." Dylan said flirtatiously and he started kissing her again.
Okay, Dylan wasn't the perfect boyfriend. But who was really perfect? Except for Eddie.
No, Loren. Stop it. You've just met Eddie. Don't get crazy, you're happy with Dylan... Are you?
