Trent's P.O.V.
After finishing up back at the office my head was in pure torment of dozens of thoughts. I needed to clear my head and indulge myself in alcohol. That's the only way I found comfort when I was conflicted. I parked right outside the newly opened up bar which was M.K. I lazily hopped of the car feeling exhausted and in need of a drink. Lately Loren has been stressing me out. What am I doing wrong? I try to be the best father I could be, but in her case that's not good enough. I swear lately she's been very ignorant of my comment on every one of her choices. Like the fact she was hanging out with Eddie Duran. I could sense a romance brewing between them and I don't her to get hurt. He's a rock star not some ordinary guy. He'll end up leaving her for a model, and by all means I won't let him put my daughter through that. I walked into the bar that was now half empty. It was around 7'oclock. I plopped down on one of the bar stools at the bar, and waited patiently. I rubbed my forehead roughly because I had a pounding right above my forehead.
"Rough day again?" The bar tender Grace said seeing that I was a regular here. I casually nodded and she served me a glass of beer.
"Everything with my daughter and all the stress work has given me. It's really taking a toll on me lately. And my late wife's anniversary is coming up to top it all off." I said taking a sip of my beer and letting out a frustrated sigh.
"Well with your daughter it will take time to get things back on track. Be patient, teenagers can be a handful. Try to find time to relax at work every now and then. And as for the last part, well I have no advice there. I'm just a bartender not a therapist." She said cleaning glasses giving them a sparkling effect as she did her job. I let a half smile appear across my face. Maybe I just need to relax every now and then.
"Well thanks anyway. Thanks for putting up with all my problems." She smiled shyly at me and pointed her head down.
"It's no problem." Then she took off her apron as soon as she was done cleaning. It was the end of her shift as another employee filled her position. I smiled as she winked at me as she left. I took a big gulp of my beer then sat it down. I turned my head to the right and watched this extremely beautiful girl walk in. Her fiery wavy locks bounced up and down in a pattern. Her physique was extremely attracting my eyes to her. She turned her head to look at me but I turned away, and acted like I wasn't staring. I could hear heels of shoes walking closer to me. While chugging down another beer and asking the bartender for another I felt a presence next to me. I turned around and saw the beautiful girl that caught my eye standing there. I smiled innocently and she imitated my action.
"How about I pay for that next drink of yours, and more if you want. My treat." She said sweetly, I was a little incoherent at the time, so I didn't hear the fake tone in her voice.
"I wouldn't let a lovely lady like you spend a dime on me."
"Oh well..I'm still going to do it. I mean that's the least I could do for a handsome man like you." She spoke out flirtatiously. I grabbed her hand and laid a soft kiss on it.
"I don't believe we met properly. My name's Trent and you?"
"Oh my name's Rebecca it's nice meeting you." She pulled her hand away and instead shook mine.
"I don't believe I've heard of you before."
"Well you're about to as time passes." I could see a trace of a smirk on her face and I felt slightly uncomfortable.
Eddie's P.O.V.
I walked into my penthouse and threw my keys on top of my piano. I kicked off my shoes and instantly plopped down on my leather sofa. I let out a sigh after everything that's happened today. After the recent meeting with Jake lately we've been working on a new album, and I'm glad to be going back writing and producing music. We discussed all the details for my new album and discussed the date it would come out. I was finally proud of myself. I stared up at the white coated ceiling and smiled knowing a major cause for this. And that was Loren. She's the only reason why I'm lighting up again. The reason why I have so much inspiration flowing through me every day. My heart jumped at the thought of her entered my brain. Her infectious smile, what wasn't there to love about her? A couple days doesn't even matter, who cares if we've only know each other that long. I already want her as a permanent part in my life. And I still have no clue as to what that meaning holds. I have feelings for her but I'm not ready to act on them yet. I'll try to get to know her better first. I want to take things slow before I pursue a committed relationship with her. I have a strong feeling she feels the same way about me, and I smiled widely knowing that.
I sat up from the couch and decided to turn on the television. I grabbed the remote from table and briefly flipped through the channels. Something caught my eye while I was doing so. I returned back to the channel that caught my eye and it was The Lily Park show. God I hated that woman. I saw recurring images of Loren and this guy having a great time together. In one picture I saw him spinning her around while hugging her, and in another one I saw her holding him tightly. My anger rose at level so high and I stiffened up. The one picture that crushed me was seeing him give her a kiss on the cheek. I guess she was having fun with Aaron more than she ever did with me. Of course there was someone else for her. Why would anything go my way? I was crushed by how much happiness I could see in her being with him, and all my hopes of ever being with her were gone. Then Lily Park had to add onto that.
"Recently Loren Tate was spotted hanging out with this hunk of a guy. Apparently he's a friend visiting to some sources but I'm not sure they're just friends. Might I add they look very happy together. Rumors were spreading like wildfire seeing maybe she and Eddie Duran would be a couple. But all these pictures suggest she isn't interested in the rock star anymore. We caught up with Loren as she was heading into the bowl alley with her "friend."
"Loren, I thought you were dating Eddie Duran?"
"I am not. Nor will I ever. Him and I are just friends. We get along just fine, and I have no time for questions."
"Well there you have it folks no chance of Leddie, poor Eddie Duran." She said sarcastically and I glared at her face on my screen. I turned off the television angrily and threw the remote at the wall, breaking it into pieces. The fact that Loren said that she will never date me hurt like hell. I was a mix of emotions, but I wouldn't let her newfound Aaron get in the way. Pure jealousy took over me and I sprung up from the couch and got my keys. I knew where I was heading and that was the bowling alley. I couldn't lose her. Even though I didn't want to act on my feelings quite yet I felt the need to let Aaron know Loren is off limits.
Loren's P.O.V.
"I score another strike again in your face." I said to Aaron teasingly as I knocked down the entire pins in one shot. He smirked amused and I smiled victoriously.
"Whatever Loren. You're just one person who loves to gloat." He tickled me briefly and I giggled uncontrollably, just like when we were kids. I was beating Aaron by 40 points and I was winning this game so far. I heard the familiar sound of pins being knocked over fill the air, and I was quickly consumed back into old memories of my childhood. I was oblivious to anything else. I was quickly startled by Aaron shouting at me.
"Loren did you see that? I actually knocked down all the pins in a split. Loren? Earth to Loren!" He yelled and I automatically turned around and smiled shyly. He walked over to me with concern as his light green eyes gleamed with worriedness.
"Sorry just spaced out for a second there."
"Are you alright?" He asked stepping closer to me and I could feel his breath hover over me. Chills rushed down my spine but not for that reason. I was getting a little cold. I shivered and he took notice and put his jacket right around me. I felt the warmth of it hit me like a bullet. I smiled seeing I couldn't face the frigid air any longer.
"Now are you better." He asked. I simply nodded with a light smile spread on my face. He was inching closer to me as the seconds pass and I didn't know what he was going to do. Our moment was ruined when we heard someone shout out to us.
"You guys went bowling and didn't invite me?"
Eh it was a decent chapter sorry for any errors. And that's a load of drama hope you're ready for what's to come. Review please:) Thanks.
