Hollywood Heights S2

You're the one that I want Chapter 14

Loren stood her ground. "Get out, you and I have nothing to talk about, we were on a break! Don't you remember? So I guess that's why you went looking for a new girlfriend?"

Eddie approached her. "You have to believe me when I tell you that whole Leah thing is a lie, I love you Loren and I would never hurt you like this."

She shook her head in disbelief. "Are you kidding me? I Face Timed you and Leah picked up the call, she was sitting next to you in your bed, she was discreet enough to cover herself but it was obvious what went on in there!"

"Loren my mind is blank, I don't know what happened, I know I had too much to drink and she was smart enough to take the pictures to convince everyone we're getting married."

"I've seen enough Eddie go and be happy for your fiancée."

"Loren that ring was meant for you! That's why I was so upset, I wanted to find the proper moment to propose to you, but something always came up! Why can't you see you're the one that I want?"

She grabbed her things and tried to leave the room. Mel stood outside the room; for once she was quiet, hurting for both her friends.

"I'm sorry Eddie, you wanted a break and I thought if we talked we could fix this, but I was wrong, I face timed you and saw enough last night to convince me you and I aren't meant to be, now leave me alone!"

"I'm not leaving Loren, and I'm not going to marry her, I don't love her."

She walked past him and he tried stopping her by holding her arm. "Let go of me!" Her look broke his heart, she was hurt, and he could see the way she looked at him revealed sadness, pain and anger. She practically ran out the door and passed Mel who walked in to stop Eddie from following her.

"Let her go Eddie, she's hurting."

Tears streamed down his face. "You have to believe me Mel I don't know what went on last night, I can't remember much, I would never deliberately hurt Loren like that, I love her so much it hurts."

He sat in the nearest chair. "How can I go on without her?"

Mel placed her hand on his shoulder. "Give her time, she's hurting, she's been crying the moment you told her you wanted a break."

"I was upset Mel, I miss her so much, I wanted to ask her to marry me so we can always be together and then this happens."

Mel's hands went towards her face. "Marry her?"

"Yes I had the ring and I was just waiting for the right moment and this is where I'm at now!"

"I told Loren that woman was trouble, and she never believed me, maybe I should have told you Eddie, she had it bad for you."

"I saw it Mel but I thought it was a harmless crush."

Mel sat next to him. "Now what?"

"I'm not giving up on us."

"I know you won't but you have to give her time."

"I heard that new song, it's about us."

Mel sighed. "She wrote it last night."

Loren walked into Kelly's office. "Am I done here?"

"Yes we should be headed to New York." She noticed Loren had been crying. "What's wrong?"

"Eddie is here; I don't want to be here, the farther away from him the better."

"We can't just leave right now, where is he?"

"I don't know and I don't care."

Eddie walked into the room. "I'm not leaving until we talk Loren."

She didn't respond to him. "Kelly I'll be in the next room, I'm calling Brenda to get things started, and we're headed out in the morning."

Kelly nodded and turned her attention towards Eddie. "What the hell were you thinking?"

Eddie sighed heavily. "I know I had a bit too much to drink, I just can't explain what happened!"

"You should sue Lily Parks and her partner in crime Tia."
"Sue them for what?"

"Maybe those pictures were altered?"

"No I had Ian look into them, they're the real thing taken with Leah's phone camera, and I can't remember doing anything those pictures show, I know I sound like a broken record when I say I can't remember what the hell happened last night."

"I don't know what to tell you Eddie go home and give Loren time."

"Where are you guys headed?"

"She's working on recording a few songs; the label wants her back in the States."

"Where is she going?"

"East coast."

"Why can't it been done in L.A?"

"Loren is calling the shots right now Eddie, you need to go home."

He was quiet, taking several breaths, trying to figure out what his next move should be. Mel walked in.

"I think you should leave, give Loren time to process this."

"There's nothing to process Mel! I love her, I need her!"

Mel walked closer to him. "She left Eddie, I don't know where, but she's not in the building."

Ian walked in. "Let's go mate, we'll figure this out."

Mel knew he was hurting, the shifting of his head and after a long sigh escaped his lips, he slightly muttered. "I won't give up."

He turned around and slowly walked out of the room. Ian signaled Mel he would call her and trailed behind his best friend.

Loren sat inside one of the Label's Mercedes Benz that was parked a few feet away from the building, she saw Eddie walk out with Ian into a waiting limo; she downcast her eyes and softly whispered.

"I will always love you Eddie but everything we had ended today." Holding her face with her hands she sobbed.

Nora arrived that night, the moment Loren saw her she fell into her mother's arms, sobbing like she hadn't done since the news broke, letting it all out, Nora held her and sat quietly, tears streamed down her cheeks as well, it hurt to see her daughter like this.

Within a few days Loren was in New York. Two weeks later she kept very busy by recording during the day and doing more photo shoot ads for the most popular make-up lines. She refused to do any interviews about her break up with Eddie Duran responding no comment to whoever tried talking to her. Lily Parks was hot on her trail but Loren was always a few steps ahead of her.

Bouquets of roses arrived on a daily basis and there was no stopping them from arriving at the exact time every day. The attached card always read "You're the one that I want."

Mel placed them in the room where Loren sat to record her songs, deep down Mel knew those flowers made Loren smile.

Meanwhile…..

In L.A Eddie kept busy, at least he tried. Jake kept after him but nothing seemed to work, he missed Loren. He didn't seem to care that sales for his music had plummeted, the fans weren't happy with him; they were upset he and Loren weren't together and labeled him a cheater.

Leah on the other hand spent her time getting ready for her wedding. She didn't care what the fans thought or said. She ignored Eddie when he told her he wasn't going to marry her. She continued to perform and her fans loved her for being the one to break up Leddie, especially the fans that envied Loren for winning the Rock stars heart.

Ian tried to be at Eddie's side when he wasn't traveling. Max and Nora didn't know what else to say to comfort him, they knew Leah was behind this scheme but couldn't prove it.

Aside from recording and performing Loren's shows always sold out and her fans loved her. Many would run and hug her telling her they would always support her. She smiled telling them she was doing great, even though inside she was broken.

"Loren we think it's time you talk to the media about your break up with Eddie."

"No, I told you and Jake it's no one's business what happened."

"You owe your fans some answers."

"I won't do it Kelly, I can't talk about it, the fans think I'm strong and resilient, that I've overcome this mess, and the truth is I couldn't handle it, they will be able to see what a mess I am."

Kelly watched her walk towards the window and could see how uneasy she was and how much this break up had affected her. To her fans she was confident and had continue to prove she could handle this situation. A soft knock on the door brought both women back to reality. Kelly walked over to open the door and smiled.

"Come on in." She turned towards Loren once more. "I'll be back later."

Loren took a deep breath and smiled. "Cam it's great to see you."

He offered his arms and Loren accepted, wrapping her arms around her longtime friend and softly sobbing as Cam sighed. "I'm sorry Loren, I tried getting here the moment I heard the news."

"You're here now and I'm so happy to see you."

"I've been busy with school and with my lacrosse team; I was finally able to get away for a few hours."

She semi smiled. "I totally forgot you were in New York."

He guided her to the nearest sofa. "Listen how can I help you?"

"Thanks but I'm beyond help, I'll get there Cam, slowly but surely I'll be able to move on and not hurt as much."

"I can't believe what happened to you and Eddie, you were the ideal couple, and everyone wanted what you had."

She downcast her look and sighed. "I thought we had it too, but when things aren't meant to be." She looked at Cam once more. "This kind of thing happens."

"I know Eddie loves you Loren, I could tell by the way he looked at you, the way he held you when you guys were together and always kissed you no matter where you guys were at." He stopped for a moment and continued. "I saw it the moment you won the contest, I could tell he was falling for you but he had to see it for himself."

"It doesn't matter anymore, he's with Leah now and I wish them the best."

"I noticed something on prom night."

She smiled. "What? How crazy Leah was for Eddie? I've heard it so many times I'm sick of it."

"I saw how she was looking at you and Eddie while you guys took pictures and danced, she was full of envy and it was showing I can't see Eddie hurting you like this."

"It's done and it's over."

Cam touched her hand gently. "I know you still love him."

Loren stood up. "You know what? I don't care, let's have dinner Cam? My treat."

"Aren't you busy?"

"I can take a break for dinner, I'll let Kelly know."

She held his hand and they both walked out.

Meanwhile…..

Eddie was at rumor, he was meeting Max and Nora there.

"Hi Eddie."

He was in deep thought and it took him a few minutes to look at the voice calling to him. "Chloe?"

"It's me; it's good to see you."

He got up and hugged her. "Same here, what are you doing in L.A?"

"I'm still doing some modeling but I'm headed to the East coast."

"I'm happy for you girl."

She noticed his demeanor. "I can tell you're miserable."

"Really? I hadn't noticed."

"Come on Eddie, I'm serious, looks like Leah got what she wanted."

He offered her the seat. "What do you mean?"

"I was in town a few weeks ago, I stopped by Jake's and she was there, I overheard her talking about you, I could tell she was very into you."

Eddie sighed. "That's what I keep hearing."

"I told her there was no way she would get you away from Loren, I knew you had the real thing Eddie and I'm sorry this happened."

He smiled. "Thanks, I can't seem to function, I miss her so much."

"Then fight for her, I know that's a weird thing coming from me, but when you went to see me at my mom's asking me to clear your name, I knew it then it was Loren you belonged with, I made peace with that, and now I'm happy to tell you I'm in love and very happy."

Eddie smiled. "That's awesome, I'm so happy for you and your new guy."

She stood up. "Thanks he makes me very happy and I want you to be just as happy."

"I'm trying, have you heard from Tyler?"

"He's in Canada working on a new sitcom, he's doing great."

Eddie leaned in to hug her. "Take care Chloe and thanks for stopping by."

"Listen I want an invite to your wedding with Loren, I want to see that amazing smile, the one that shows the world how happy our favorite Rock star is."

"Thanks girl, I'm going to straighten this mess and get my girl back."

Chloe smiled. "That's the Eddie we all love." She waved and as she turned to leave, Max and Nora appeared. Max wasn't sure how to react.

"Hey Chloe it's good to see you." His voice unsure.

She smiled. "It's ok Max; I'm not the Chloe you met years ago." She turned towards Nora. "Congrats on your wedding too."

Nora smiled. "Thanks Chloe."

Chloe smiled and waved as she exited the place. Max furrowed his eyes and sat and Nora followed suit.

"Why was she here?" He asked.

Eddie slightly smiled shaking his head. "It's all good Pops, she was actually very nice."

Nora reached for the pitcher of water in front of her. "She seemed happy."

"She should be, she's finally in love and it's real this time."

Eddie's phone buzzed and he took the call. "What's up Ian?"

Max looked at Nora and back to his son. Eddie hit the end button and took a deep breathe.

"What's wrong?"

"Ian said Lily Parks called him, she wanted me to be the first to know."

"Know what?"

Their phones buzzed and Eddie was the first to look at his phone. Tia appeared with a huge smile. "So we spot the beautiful Loren Tate having lunch with a former class mate, and I've been watching them for a while, they've been very cozy and Loren is finally smiling again." She turned the camera to the area where Loren and Cam were exiting the restaurant.

Tia scurried to her side. "Loren who's your date? You're smiling again! Are you over Eddie?"

Loren took a deep breath and holding Cam's arm walked away and responded. "No comment."

So sorry guys! Don't forget I'm pro-leddie, but this story has to run its course. Chapter ends here today! Kindly review!
