Something More Chapter 2

Kelly gave him a huge smile. "You Eddie know how to make your fans smile."

Eddie hung his bag over his shoulder. "I love my fans; I'm where I am thanks to them."

He walked out. Loren got home and nothing could wipe the smile off her face. "What a day, mom isn't going to believe me." She stopped the car and turned towards Mel. "We aren't dreaming are we?"

Mel responded as she exited the car. "We met Eddie Duran and we get to watch him in concert on Saturday in the front row!"

"The best part is I get to drop my job at the coffee shop, I'll make enough to cover my expenses."

"You realize it's a set of twins you're going to be watching?"

Loren rolled her eyes. "I know Mel, I love kids and kids love me."

"I'm sure you're going to be great Lo."

Loren opened the door. "It's too early mom is still at work, let's work on our paper Mel, I'm going to be busy and I have to prioritize."

"Don't tell me you're going to become boring?"

"No Mel this is real life, at least for me it is."

Mel picked up her bag. "No I get it Lo, I'll be going, get busy, I have to go and pick out what to wear for Eddie's concert."

Mel left and Loren got busy finishing her essay for school, she had Eddie's music playing in the background and she was singing along with him.

Nora walked in, she loved to hear her daughter sing, and she walked over to her room. "Loren I'm home."

Loren lowered the volume of her IPod and smiled as she turned to her mom's voice. "Hi mom."

"I love to hear you sing sweetie."

"You're my mom you have to say that."

Nora walked over and hugged Loren from behind. "Loren you have an amazing gift, you can sing sweetie, I heard you just now, you and Eddie sound great together."

Loren picked up the envelope on her desk. "Guess what?"

"What?" Nora looked at her daughter, Loren smiled from ear to ear. "Here open it."

Nora did as told. "Loren these are two front row tickets to Eddie's concert, how did you find them?"

Loren rolled her eyes, nothing could wipe the smile on her face. "Mom I met Eddie at the Madsen office, he asked if we were going to his concert and Mel and I said we weren't able to get tickets and he gave us these two tickets!"

"Loren that's great, you met him and you're still standing?"

"I don't know how I did it, and Mel was there, we handled it pretty good."

Nora hugged her daughter. "So I take it you got the job?"

"Yes, I'll be the nanny to Jake and Kelly's twin boys, and its great pay, I can drop my job at the coffee shop."

"Loren I'm so happy for you."

"I know mom, I'm so excited!"

"Let's get dinner on the table."

The following day Loren arrived a few minutes before 1 p.m. she went to the office where she had met with Kelly. As she opened the door she heard someone on the phone.

She walked in and the person on the phone turned to look at who had walked in. He waved for her to wait he was finally off of the phone. "How can I help you?"

"I'm Loren Tate, Kelly is expecting me."

"Oh yes, she'll be right down. Hi I'm Jason, I'm Kelly's assistant."

"Hi Jason, nice to meet you."

"So you're the new nanny huh?"
"Yes, I am." Loren looked away, she felt uncomfortable with the way he was looking at her.

"Loren you can take a seat, Kelly will be here soon."

The door opened and Kelly walked in with her two boys. "Hi Loren, this is Eric and Ethan."

Loren kneeled to their eye level. "Hi." She looked up at Kelly. "Is there anything you need me to do right now?"

"They love the park, their stroller is outside already, you can take them there, here's a bag with some snacks, when you get back, my chef is upstairs and he knows what to prepare for them, when you get back, the stroller goes in the back storage room."

"Great well let's get started." She took the boys by their hand and walked out with them. She placed them on their stroller and she walked to the park.

Jason turned to Kelly as he watched from the window. "Kelly where did you find her? She's beautiful."

Kelly held her hand out. "Stop, she's working, you're to leave her alone."

"What I can't admire beauty?"

"Jason leave Loren alone."

He rolled his eyes. "Ok whatever; here are some of your messages."

Loren arrived at the park, she took the boys out of their stroller and they took off to the swings, Loren was glad she was wearing comfortable clothes; she would be doing a lot of running with these two.

The week flew by fast. Loren and Mel were off to see Eddie Duran in concert. Both girls looked amazing and they were very excited.

"Mel I'm so excited to be here."

"I know Lo so am I, come on let's find our row."

"Mel look who's standing there, it's Katy and Max Duran, my mom is such a huge fan, she going to freak when I tell her I saw them here."

"Katy is so beautiful and Max, he's still hot."

Loren grabbed Mel by the arm. "Come on, stop staring, it's not polite."

They got to their seats. Loren looked around; she noticed Jake and Kelly standing by the side of the stage. "I wonder who's watching the boys."

"Lo it's Saturday and your day off, not your problem."

"Mel those boys are really sweet, I just want them to be happy."

"You're an amazing Lo, always caring for others."

Loren smiled. The Music started and the lights started to flash everywhere and as screams began in the background Eddie appeared, he was wearing jeans and a black T-shirt and jacket, and wore a bandana on his neck, his hair was messy but he looked gorgeous! Dancing and jumping and singing moving towards the girls in the front row, Loren sang along with him, everyone stood raising their hands. Mel was catching the whole thing on her phone. Eddie sang a few of his hits, teasing the girls in the front row, slightly touching their hands as he sang and moved around. He caught sight of Loren and took his bandana off placing it on her hand as he winked at her and continued to sing.

Mel turned towards Loren. "You're the lucky fan!"

Loren smiled. "I know! " She continued to sing along with Eddie as he started a new set of songs! After 2 hours the show was over, Loren and Mel made their way out, some girls offered Loren money for the bandana he had given her, she refused any offer and placed it inside the pocket of her jacket.

Kelly spotted Loren and Mel and waved to them. Mel noticed her. "Lo Kelly is waving for us to go to her."

"Maybe she needs me right now?"

"Oh stop it Lo, maybe we get to see Eddie one more time."

They walked towards Kelly. "Come on, I want you to meet Katy and Max Duran."

"Lo it just gets better, we have to thank Adam."

"Mel it's going to be a night to remember."

Kelly walked towards Katy and Max with Loren and Mel trailing behind her. "Katy and Max, I want you to meet Loren Tate and Melissa Sanders, Loren is the boys nanny."

Katy smiled looking at Loren. "Hi nice to meet Eddie's fans."

Loren shook her hand. "Oh it's so nice to meet you both too." Max smiled looking their way too. "Nice meeting two beautiful young ladies, did you enjoy the show?"

"Yes we did, thank you so much!" replied an excited Mel.

From the corner of her eye Loren spotted Jake talking to Eddie, she couldn't believe he was right there, so close.

Kelly pulled Loren to the side. "Loren I really need you tomorrow, I know it's Sunday, but we're having a little dinner party at home with the Duran's and I need your help with the boys."

Did I just hear her say a dinner party with the Duran's? "Sure Kelly what time?"

"I hope noon is ok, I'll pay you extra."

"Kelly of course, I'll finish my essay early and head to your place before noon."

"Great and thank you Loren, I'll see you tomorrow."

Loren pulled Mel by the arm. "Well nice meeting you both, excuse us and Kelly see you tomorrow."

"Sure and thank you Loren."

Mel cringed. "I was about to say hello to Eddie and you ruined it."

"Mel he was busy with Jake, come on let's head home, Kelly needs me tomorrow."

"On a Sunday?"

"Yes, she's hosting a dinner party for the Duran's!"

"You might see Eddie again."

"I have Adam to thank for this, who would have thought I would meet Eddie Duran; did you see how gorgeous he looked?"

"Yes and you got a gift from him Lo."

"I know, I can smell his cologne, you know where I'm going to keep this."

"Under your pillow?"

Loren padded her pocket. "Oh yes!"

Loren dropped off Mel and headed home, her mom was still up and she told her all about the concert, meeting Katy and Max Duran and showing off her souvenir from Eddie. Nora loved to watch her daughter's eye light, especially when she was so happy.

The following morning Loren was up and prepared breakfast. She did some laundry and cleaned her room; she was ready to leave by 11: 15. "Let me see what you're wearing?"

Loren walked back to her mom. "Mom I'm wearing a tank top, jeans and a jacket, why does this look bad?"

"No, but it's a dinner party."

"Mom I'm watching the boys, I'll probably be with them in the playroom; I'll be nowhere near the dinner party."

"Ok I guess you're right, have a great day sweetie."

Loren got into her car and drove away. She arrived at the Madsen penthouse and took the elevator to the top floor. The doors opened and she knocked on the door.

Jake opened. "Hey Loren, come on in, Kelly is in the playroom."

"Good morning Mr. Madsen, thank you, I'll head over there."

"Hi Kelly, Hi boys."

They smiled as they ran to hug Loren. " Loren, my boys like you."

"They're amazing little boys Kelly; they're really good with me."

"Thank you Loren, please keep them busy, the dinner is set for 2 p.m and I have to make sure everything is set in the dining room area."

"Sure Kelly, no problem, glad I could help."

Loren sat and read to the two siblings, they sat by Loren laughing, she made the stories come alive for them and they loved it. She took out the blocks and they played for a while, she could hear noise in the background, she was sure the guests had already arrived. Loren looked at her watch, she knew it was dinnertime for the twins, she held their hands and took them to the bathroom to wash their hands and walked towards the kitchen using the other side of the hallway.

The chef saw her. "Loren their food is at the table, its chicken nuggets and carrot sticks."

"Thank you Mr. Miguel." She sat each of the boys in their booster chair and placed their plate in front of each boy. "Ok let's eat while I get your apple juice."

Loren grabbed two juice boxes and placed one with each twin. "You two were hungry huh?"

The door opened and Loren turned, she smiled when she saw who it was.

"Oh I'm sorry; I thought I heard the boys."

"Hi Eddie, yes they're having their dinner."

Eddie approached both boys. "Hey guys, you enjoying your chicken?" He played with their hair.

One of them offered Eddie a piece. " For you."

"Oh no that's your piece, thank you." He smiled as he turned towards Loren. "So did you enjoy the concert?"

"Yes you were amazing Eddie, thank you again for the tickets."

"Thank you Loren, and you're welcome; I hope you enjoyed the souvenir." He winked as he walked back to the dining area.

Loren downcast her look, she was sure she was blushing. She sat near the boys when she heard noise coming from the dining room area and the door swung opened again.

"So you must be the new nanny?"

Loren turned; she immediately recognized the tall slim blonde walking towards her holding a glass of white wine.

"Yes can I help you?"

"No, let me help you understand something little girl, stay away from my boyfriend."

Loren furrowed her eyebrows. "Excuse me."

"You heard me; this is your place right here watching these brats."

Both turned at the sound of the door opening.

"Chloe what are you doing here?"

Ok, thank you again for reading; I hope you're enjoying this story! Please R & R Should I go on?
