Max: I just wanted to talk to you
Loren: about?
Max: Eddie...
Loren: Max, I can't
Max: please Loren, you're the person that knows him the best
Loren: *scoffs* I don't think I know him as much as thought I did
Max: I don't support anything he's done but he's still my son and I'm honestly worried about him. All he does is drink, he hasn't showered in who knows how long, and Jake says he hasn't written any songs
Loren: *softly* this... This is just so hard Max
Max: I thinks this is because of the break up
Loren: *chuckes* Max, he's the one who broke up with me, he doesn't love me, he's in love with someone else. With Chloe.
Max: I can't imagine why he did it. He always talked to me about how in love with you he was
Loren: I guess feeling change, right?
Max: I'm sorry Loren, Eddie is my son but I also love you like a daughter, if you ever need to talk to me. Just know I'm here for you.
Loren: *with tears in her eyes* l love you too Max. You are like the dad I never had
*thinking*
Mom, Max... I have to tell you guys something
Nora: what honey?
Loren: but first, I have to tell you guys what really happened with Eddie. *sighs* A few days before coming back from tour, he started acting strange but I thought nothing of it, I thought it was just me imagining things. Anyways, when he came back, I had to tell him something but so did he. He said had cheated on me with Chloe while on tour
Max: He cheated? This is not the Eddie I know! Why the hell would he cheat on you if he knows exactly how he feels to be cheated on! I... I don't know what to think. I feel so disappointed
Loren: I'm telling you guys this because I need you to understand why I'm doing this. He said wanted to break up with me, that he didn't love me anymore, that he loved Chloe.
Nora: honey...
Loren: I didn't tell him what I was going to tell him that might. I was going to tell him I'm pregnant
Nora: pregnant!
Max: you're pregnant?
Loren: *quietly* I am. I'm telling you guys because I've kept this a secret for too long and I feel like you deserve to know. And I guess what I'm trying to ask you is to please not tell him
Max: Loren... Not for a second, I approve of his actions and he's an idiot for doing what he did but he still deserves to know he's going to be a dad
Loren: I know he does but I need time to think about things before I say anything. I'll tell him... Eventually
Nora: honey... You do realize the media will find out about it sooner or later once you start to show right
Loren: *laughs* I know mom, there's nothing I can really do about that
Nora: I just hate that you're doing this alone
Loren: I'm not alone mom, I have you guys and Mel
Max: and we'll always be here for you
Loren: *hugs them* I love you guys

Eddie's P.O.V

When I get home, I flop down on my couch and sigh, when did my life start going downwards. I few weeks ago, everything seemed to be perfect. Why did this have to happen?

Having to break up with Loren was one of the hardest things I've ever done. But making her believe I didn't love and that I had cheated was the hardest. Watching her face while I told her all of that stuff, was breaking me inside. I hate watching her cry, but knowing I'm the reason for those tears makes me hate myself. When she walked out the door, all I wanted was to stop her and tell her truth. To tell her what had happened and that we could have figured out something together. But I love her too much to permit for a second the chance of Chloe finding out and hurting her. When she told me she hated me, all that was left of me was an empty void inside my heart. I wish this had never happened. I wish I still had Loren. I wish she still love me. I wish that night after my concert would had never happened.

Flashback

I had just gotten done with my concert, I was tired and sweaty but all I wanted to do was hear Loren's voice. I love being on tour and meeting my fans but it's hard being away from the person you love. There are just a few days left and I can't wait to see her again. I'm on my way to my fitting room when someone grabs my arm. When I turn around the person standing there is Chloe.

Eddie: Chloe, what the hell are you doing here?
Chloe: *smiles* I came to see you Eddie
Eddie: how did you even get access? No one can enter this place
Chloe: oh I have my ways
Eddie: I can imagine that
Chloe: *seductively* how about you and I go somewhere more private?
Eddie: Not in a million years
Chloe: why not? I don't think your little girlfriend is keeping you satisfied and I plan to change that
Eddie: *angry* I'm calling security
Chloe: no, okay! Wait, I actually came here because I have something to tell you
Eddie: there's nothing we need to talk about
Chloe: break up with Loren and get Back together with me
Eddie: *laughs* and why would I break up with her? I love her and I would be crazy to ever let her go
Chloe: let me tell you why, because if you don't, I have some friends that could hurt her... A lot
Eddie: you do realize I can just talk to the police and have you arrested right?
Chloe: that's where you're wrong. If you do that, as soon as my friends hear about me being sent to jail, they'll make sure to get rid your precious girlfriend
Eddie: why are you doing this?
Chloe: it's pretty simple. I want fame, you're famous. If I date you, then voilà! I'll be famous
Eddie: you're sickening
Chloe: do we have a deal? Remember what will happen to Loren if you don't do it
Eddie: *defeated* yes
Chloe: *claps* perfect! Here's my number. Call me. *kisses him*

All I can do is stand there as she walks away. I can't think straight, what just happened? I can't stop my tears from flowing down. I don't want to do this. I want to close my eyes and pretend this never happened. Pretend everything is fine, and that in a few days I'll have Loren in my arms again. But the reality is that I won't, I won't be able to hug her or kiss her or watch as her eyes brighten when she laughs anymore. As much as I don't want to do this, I have to. I'll be doing exactly what I'm protecting her from- I'll be hurting her- but I can't risk anything happening to her. I'll be miserable and heartbroken but I love her, and as long as she's okay then I'm okay. And she will be okay, at least in the physical sense.

I don't want to see anyone right now. Specially Jake, just by looking at me, he'll know something is wrong. I grab my sunglasses and I cap from the table, hoping no one will recognize me as I walk out of the venue. Right now I need to be alone.

end of flashback

I wish I could tell someone about this, and let it all out. Tell someone how hard it is to wake up everyday to the other side of the bed deserted, how empty I feel inside, and the jealousy I feel every time I have to read about the rumors of Loren and Tyler dating.

I grab my phone and dial Ian's number.

Ian: Hey mate
Eddie: Ian, can you come over? I wanna talk to you about something...

Now you guys have heard Eddie's side of the story. What do you think will happen next? Will Eddie tell Ian? Comment & Review :)
