You Look Through Me: Chapter 4
Eddie and Loren were just standing there looking at each other. Eddie was in obvious shock and Loren regretted ending up there because she could have easily gone to Max and Nora's house. She let her heart take her here when her brain was just saying 'turn around, turn around.' Now she had to face the consequences of her careless actions
Eddie: "Do you want to go somewhere and talk?" The pain flowed from Eddie's voice and he knew Loren could hear and feel it. It sent chills up her spine.
Loren:"That would be nice, i don't want to cause a scene out in the lobby." Loren said this with a smile that didn't meet her eyes.
Loren and Eddie stepped inside the elevator. It seemed as if the ride up took hours because of the awkwardness between them. They tried making eye contact once, only to shift their gazes downward. They elevator doors finally opened to his apartment and they stepped out. Loren waited as he shuffled for his keys to unlock the door to his non changed penthouse.
Eddie:"Would you anything to drink?"
Loren:"Water would be nice, thank you." The awkwardness between them was still apparent but slowly fading as they got acquainted with their surroundings. Eddie sat the water in front of them as he sat next to her on the couch. He could feel her stiffen.
Eddie:"Melissa said things were bothering you lately and she also said that you would rather tell me yourself." He just got straight to the point. Loren took a sip of the ice water before answering.
Loren:" She said that," Loren asked rhetorically, "I actually wanted to get something off my chest. I couldn't think of an easy way to say it but i'll just say it, i guess."
Eddie sat up and prepared himself for heart break.
Loren:"Eddie, I've been thinking about us lately, and i cane to the conclusion that I still have feelings for you." Eddie was about to speak but she stopped him. "Before you say anything, I know we are both in relationships so I know it wouldn't work, but i just needed to get that off of my chest."
Before he knew it, Eddie laid an abrupt kiss on Loren. She was pushing him away at first but found herself kissing him back with the same want and need.
Eddie:whispers, "Goddamn it Loren."
Loren quickly realized what was going on and she pushed him off.
Loren:"Eddie, you can't just do that! We're both in relationships and if the media were to find out, both of our careers would be done!" Loren was yelling , but mostly at herself. She knew better.
Eddie:"But Loren, it's obvious we both want this. I can tell from that kiss. I understand we are both in relationships, but only you can make me feel this way."
Loren had to admit it, it was the same for her. Eddie was the only guy that could make her feel this way. Ricky was nothing compared to how Eddie made her feel. Eddie grabbed Loren bu the wrists and pulled her against his body. Loren didn't fight it this time. Eddie pulled her into into a passionate but hard kiss. He had never kissed anyone but Loren like this. She was the only one he truly loved. Eddie had pulled away which made Loren try to catch his lips again.
Loren:" I should get going. It's getting pretty late."
Eddie:"Yeah, i should get to sleep, because Jake goes his hardest on me on Monday."
Loren:"Don't I know it." Loren and Eddie shared a laugh while still holding each other. Eddie let Loren got to retrieve her keys and jacket before leaving. She started heading out of the door.
Loren:"Good night, Eddie Duran," Loren said with a smirk before Eddie laid a chaste kiss on her lips. Loren took the elevator back down to the lobby and out of the door. Her car was already waiting out front, and she hopped in. Loren left the building with a lot on her mind. She couldn't tell anyone about what just happened, not even Mel. Mel would only tell her mother and her mother would tell was also left with a lot of thinking. He didn't want to break up with Vanessa, but he really wanted to be with Loren.
Loren arrived back to the apartment to find Mel still there, watching tv and eating popcorn. Loren wanted to rush into her room and avoid any questions from Mel. Loren was to late when Mel heard her come in.
Mel:"So what happened?" Mel asked this but she already knew the answer.
Loren:"Nothing happened i promise." Loren was a bad liar and Mel knew when she was lying anyway.
Mel:"You guys kissed didn't you."
