Chapter 3

Sunday Morning

Loren wakes up, from the best night sleep she has ever had, to the smell of something delicious coming from the kitchen. "What is that?" Loren thought. She decided to wake up Mel and investigate.

"Mel! Mel! Wake up!" Loren whispered in Mel's ear while shaking her slightly.

"What do you want Lo! Ryan Gosling was just going to ask me to marry him!" complained a sleepy and grumpy Mel.

Just before Loren was going to explain, Mel suddenly smelt something coming from the kitchen. "Lo?," she asked.

"This is why I woke you up!" Loren explained, "I didn't want to check it out alone."

"Okay, I'm up let's go see what it is, cause I'm starving and that smells really good," Mel demanded.

"Yeah me too," Loren agreed.

Loren and Mel both quietly walked towards the familiar closed doors of the kitchen. When they got closer the smell coming from inside got stronger and both Mel and Lo were practically drooling. They also heard music playing which Loren guessed was from the radio. Loren and Mel stood right in front of the door, gave each other a look, then Mel shrugged signaling Loren that it was okay, and then she opened the door and walked straight into the kitchen. What they saw stopped them right in their tracks.

"Hey girls," Traci called to them, "Come in here and grab some breakfast! I hope you guys like eggs and bacon, but if you don't, I also made some pancakes and waffles as well."

Loren and Mel stood speechless. No one has ever made them breakfast except for, well let's just say it was a long time ago. Loren and Mel didn't even remember what a real breakfast like this tasted like. Their meals usually consisted of cereal, if their foster parents had it, or they skipped breakfast all together and just got lunch from school.

Once they snapped back to reality they both walked over to the buffet-style table and they filled both or their plates high with pancakes, eggs, bacon, and waffles, and each taking a glass of orange juice to wash it down.

"Man, you girls can really eat," Jake laughed from across the table, making everyone erupt in giggles.

After everyone finished breakfast the girls helped Traci clean up and then were shuffled out of the kitchen to change into some old clothes in order to get ready for "The Big Decorating Day" as Traci liked to call it. Within minutes, the loading vans pulled up in front of the house carrying all of the beautiful furniture needed to decorate both of the girl's rooms. Loren, Mel, Traci, and Jake quickly helped the workers bring everything upstairs and within a few short hours, both rooms were now painted and decorated to each girl's specifications.

While everyone's head was in full-on decorating mode, Loren's mind was somewhere else. She was up on the hill of her secret spot with Eddie. She still couldn't believe the night she had. She still wasn't sure if it was real or if it was just a dream. It was quickly proven real when around 1 o'clock, after all the loaders have left and her room was filled with everything she could need, she received two text alerst from twitter

At that moment, Loren's phone began to constantly beep with alerts from twitter. Loren was just about to get on her laptop when Mel barged into her room.

"Lo what did you do last night! How did you meet Eddie Duran! You are getting so many followers it crazy!" Mel talked very quickly which only let Loren process a few things.

"What are you talking about!" Loren asked quickly, already knowing the answer.

"This!" Mel squealed excitedly pulling up Loren's profile on twitter.

"Oh my God!" Loren screamed. Loren stared shocked at the screen in front of her. She had 5 thousand followers and more were coming.

"Everyone is asking how you know Eddie and I'm one of those people!" Mel complains, "so spill!"

"Okay! Okay! I'll tell you! Just don't tell anyone!" Loren demands, then begins to tell Mel everything that happened last night except for the childhood flashback.

Eddie woke up from a much-needed rest around noon. As he was getting out of bed, he began to recall the memories of last night, which put a smile on his face. He then remembers the song and rushed downstairs to go play it once again. Once he got downstairs, he slid onto the piano bench and began to play.

We never would've met
We never would've had a chance
If there was no music.
I probably would've left
And never would've never danced.
If there was no music.

If there was no music,
If, if there was no music,
If there was no music, music, music.
If there was no music,
If, if there was no music,
If there was no music, music, music.

Listen up, listen up right here
The soundtracks would disappear
Bruno would never catch a grenade
The radio wouldn't know what to play.

We never would've met
We never would've had a chance
If there was no music, no music.
I probably would've left
And never would've never danced, never danced
If there was no music.

If there was no music,
If, if there was no music,
If there was no music, music, music.
If there was no music,
If, if there was no music,
If there was no music, music, music.

Listen up, listen up come on. Come on!
The DJ's would be out of jobs. No jobs!
How would you ever get your fitness on,
If the music's gone?
We'd be so lost!
Listen up, listen up to this.
This be the only reason you pump your fists, pump your fist, pump your fist.
Anthems would not exist!

We never would've met
We never would've had a chance
If there was no music.
I probably would've left
And never would've never danced.
If there was no music.

If there was no music,
If, if there was no music,
If there was no music, music, music.
If there was no music,
If, if there was no music,
If there was no music, music, music.

There would be no na na na na na. Oh oh oh oh oh! If there was no music
(If There Was No Music by Cody Longo)

As he finishes the song the first thing he thinks of is Loren. "I need to show her this. Maybe she''l even sing it with me because I did write it as a duet." He thinks, "She is so talented and can defiantly make it in the music business. But first I need to give her some buzz." He then comes up with the idea to follow her on twitter and tweet her. What he didn't know was that their were many Loren Tates. So he sat in front of his computer for about 45 minutes scrolling through all the names until he finds those piercing brown eyes. He then put his plan into to action. "There that should do it!" he thinks proudly, "Now I think I should call her." And just like that he runs back upstairs to his room, grabs his phone off of his nightstand and calls Loren.

"Oh my God Lo!" Mel calls for Loren who is in the other room, "Eddie is calling you!" She screams.

"What!" she yells back in response, followed by an "Ow!" as she stubs her toe running up the stairs. "Give it to me Mel!" Loren yells excitedly.

"Okay, Okay here!" Mel says handing it to Loren.

"Thanks" she says back, and then quickly answers the phone. "Hello," she asks trying to hide the excitement in her voice.

"Hey Loren, it's Eddie" replies Eddie.

"Oh you mean the guy who followed me on twitter today which led a bunch of other people to follow me, which caused my phone to momentarily die from exhaustion, or the guy who sits behind me in Brit Lit?" Loren asked sarcastically while flashing Mel an excited expression.

"Definitely the second one," Eddie answers causing both of them to laugh. After a brief moment, Eddie gets back to the reason why he called, "So Loren, are you busy right now?" he asks.

"No, can I ask why," Loren replies with a grin.

"Well, I just finished writing a new song and I wanted you to hear it, so do you think you could come over my place." Eddie questions, silently praying that she would say yes.

Loren stops and then silently mouths "Oh My God!" in Mel's direction, then quickly replies "Umm yeah that sounds great."

"Cool I'll text you the address. I'll see you soon" Eddie replies excitedly

"Okay... i'll see you later" Loren replies quietly. She then hangs up the phone and then runs over to Mel and says "I need your help!"

10 minutes later Loren changes into her newly purchased black skinny jeans, a blue and gray layered tank top and a pair of black combat boots.

"Lo! You look so cute! My work here is done," Mel says, as she finishes the final touches on Lo's make-up.

"Now I just have to see if Traci will let me borrow the car," Loren replies quietly. But before Mel can answer her, Loren bolts down the stairs in search of Traci.

"Traci!" Loren calls.

"Yes, honey! What do you need I'm in the kitchen!" calls back a not to distant Traci. Lo bolts to the kitchen accidently slamming the kitchen door open, causing Traci to jump.

"Sorry!" Loren apologizes.

"It's okay sweetie!" Traci replies a little breathlessly, "What is it that you need?"

"Do u think that maybe I could borrow the car?" Loren mumbles

"Of course!" Traci replies throwing Loren the keys, "But come home a reasonable time tonight," Traci warns giving Lo a meaningful glance.

"Yes ma'am" Loren replies with a soldier salute, making Traci laugh.

"Call me if you aren't going to be home for dinner and please call me mom," she replies seriously.

Loren then walks over to Traci and gives her a hug and says "Yes mom!" Then she quickly leaves the house, gets into the car and punches in the address Eddie texted her and begins the trip over to Eddie's place.

Eddie was so excited. He couldn't wait for Loren to come over. He ordered some food that should be getting here right when she got here. He hoped that she liked pastrami. Just then he heard a knock at his door. He felt so anxious and nervous and it unnerved him a little. Once he opened the door he visibly deflated.

"Eduardo! What's the matter? You don't want to see me?" questions Jake.

"Oh hey Jake" Eddie says forcing a smile back onto his face, "I was just expecting someone."

"It's not Chloe is it?" Jake questions, growing concerned, "Cause you really need to stay away from-"

"Jake it's not Chloe," Eddie interrupts getting frustrated, "Just drop it okay!"

"Yeah, okay, back to business, so the label needs to know when those songs are gonna be ready" Jake says getting back to the reason why he's there.

"They'll be ready soon," Eddie replies, relieved that Jake changed the subject.

"How soon?" Jake questions.

"I don't know!" Eddie says exasperated, "I can't rush this kind of thing!"

"I know, I know, just try" Jake says calmly.

"I will," Eddie says relieved once he realized that Jake is going to stall the label for a little bit longer.

"Get busy," Jake replies as he gives Eddie that man-hug thing, and Eddie walks him to the door. Once Eddie opens the door, he sees Loren standing there with, first a happy expression and then its turns to one of shock as she recognizes Jake.

"Jake!" Loren exclaims, confused

"Loren!" Jake says, equally confused

"What are you doing here?" they reply in unison.
