Chapter 25

"I didn't think it was possible for you to look any hotter..." Eddie said as he looked at Loren, who was still looking at herself in the mirror. His shirt reached to just below her butt, Eddie thought about how perfect her body was. Loren's body had curves on all the right places, Chloe's body hadn't had any curves. Eddie mentally slapped himself for comparing Loren to Chloe again, but it wasn't something bad, he always came to the conclusion that Loren was better than Chloe. Eddie looked at Loren as she turned around and turned red at his compliment.

"You think I look hot?" she asked in an innocent voice.

"I know you look hot." Eddie replied, he respected Loren but he still wanted her, he wanted her so badly. He had to contain himself not to run over to her, he kissed her passionately. Eddie hands trailed down Loren's back and to her butt, Eddie had never touched Loren without any clothes on. It made a shock go through is body, every time he touched Loren it felt like the first time he touched her. Eddie lifted Loren up and carried her towards the bed, as hot as she looked in his shirt he wanted nothing more than to rip it off her perfect body.

A million things were running through Loren's mind, a voice that sounded like Mel's told her she was ready. But she heard her mother tell her to respect her body and herself. But Eddie respected her, so if she gave herself to him she wouldn't disrespect her body, right? Loren wanted him so badly, especially after feeling his touch on her bare skin. He gently laid her down on the bed, never breaking the kiss. Loren made her decision, she went with the Mel-ish voice. She was ready. She wanted Eddie. She loved Eddie.

"Eddie..." Loren started as she pulled away slightly.

"I know, I know" Eddie said in an apologizing way "You're not ready, I'm sorry I shouldn't have-"

"Eddie, let me finish." Loren interrupted "I thought about it... I'm ready." she whispered excitedly.

"I love you, Loren Tate" Eddie said, he went back to kissing her. Loren's stomach was full of butterflies who just wanted to burst out of her. Eddie was amazing, Eddie was sweet, Eddie was everything she had dreamed of. All her doubts faded, she was ready.

Adriana was in a state of shock. Vince had counted the money, exactly one million dollars. Phil had whispered in her ear not to tell anyone about him and pushed her into her dad's arms. Don was holding Adriana in a tight embrace. Adriana couldn't cry, she couldn't talk, she just wanted her dad to hold her.

"Goodbye, sweetie" Vince yelled from the car "I hope we meet again some day." those were Vince's last words before he drove off.

"Adriana are you okay?" Don asked as he parted from his daughter.

"Ya" Adriana replied in her new found 'broke voice' which Vince had made her find "Can we go home?" she asked. Don nodded and put his arm around his daughter. Adriana looked different than usual, not in a good way, she didn't have her usual attitude. Normally Don would find that good but Adriana seemed lost. What had the men done to her?

Katy had been passed out on her couch all night. She woke up and grabbed her head, it hurt, it wasn't even the next morning and Katy already had a hangover. Katy sighed, she missed Eddie, she missed Max. She missed the chaos her boys used to bring. All this peace and quiet was messing with her head. Katy always wanted to do something, although sleeping seemed like that something right now. She rubbed her eyes and opened up her laptop, the last days she had only known what was going with her so through the internet. She went to one of her usual gossip sites.

EDDIE DURAN MOVING ON FAST

LEDDIE TAKES ON THE WORLD WITH THE SPEED OF LIGHT

A couple more of those titles appeared on her screen. Her son didn't tell her anything these days, she thought. There was a happiness inside of her, Katy had instantly liked Loren, a lot more than she had thought she would. Katy walked to her closet and opened the bottom drawer, she pulled out a white T-shirt. 'Worlds Best Mom' Katy smiled, Eddie had no idea she still had the shirt. She chuckled at the thought of little seven year old Eddie. What was it with Eddie at that age? It had been the highest point in the career of MK, well, the first highlight of their career had been back then. Her first tour, it had been amazing, Katy loved touring with Max and Eddie. Performing, she loved it, although she hadn't performed since Max died. Eddie had told her to go back to performing, Katy grabbed Max's old guitar. Before she knew what she was doing she was playing her guitar, an old song from her and Max. Her favorite song; Make It Rain.

Nora was doing the dishes, she had just finished another home cooked, lonely dinner. Nora had tried to call Don multiple times this evening but he hadn't been picking up. Nora missed her daughter, who was spending a night with a famous rockstar. Just be smart Loren, she thought. Nora couldn't take it anymore, she had to see Don. Nora grabbed her keys and got into her car, she headed towards Don's house. As she arrived at the Master's residence she saw Don's car pull up the driveway, what was he doing here at this time? Nora saw him get out and open the door for his daughter. Nora quickly got out of her car and walked up to them.

"Hey, Don, I'm sorry is this a bad time?" Nora asked as she hugged Don. She looked at Adriana, what was wrong? "Hi Adriana..." she added, Adriana flashed her something that was supposed to look like a smile.

"Nora... Hey." Don said in a fake exited voice and he gave his daughter a questioning look.

"It's okay, dad..." Adriana replied to his look.

"Come in, Nora." Don said and he smiled at Nora, they both walked into Don's house. Adriana went to her room without saying another word, she needed to be alone. As soon as she got in her room she crashed down on her bed and started to sob. Vince's words rang through her head. Adriana closed her eyes, thinking it would help calm her head.

"Relax, sweetie..." Vince whispered. He forcefully parted her legs with his hands and rubbed her inner thigh.
"This won't hurt much.." he continued, Adriana shook her head as she started crying, she couldn't move, she was paralyzed from the fear.
"Just relax... You'll make me very happy..." Vince kissed her neck. Vince lifted her up forcefully and carried her towards the dirty bed in the corner of the little house. It looked like it had fleas living in it, Adriana started kicking with her untied legs.

"No! Stop!" Adriana yelled as she opened her eyes, she sighed in relief, she was in her room. Her own room. There was a knock on the door, Nora had heard Adriana and asked if it was okay to go check on her. Don couldn't take it anymore, he had told Nora about everything that had happened. Nora needed to know if Adriana was okay, something had happened, Nora knew it.

"Adriana, it's me, Nora, is it okay if I come in?" Nora asked through the door.

"Ya, come in..." A broken voice replied from inside the room. Nora opened the door, she saw Adriana on her bed, sobbing, she looked miserable. Nora had never really talked to Adriana, Loren had always told her she was a horrible person.

"Adriana..." Nora said in a soft voice full of sympathy, she quietly closed the door and sat down next to Adriana who instantly fell into her arms. Adriana wasn't sure why she was crying in the arms of her sworn enemy, she needed to tell somebody what happened. She felt comfortable with Nora, like Nora wouldn't judge her in any way. Adriana still felt like it was somehow her fault, she didn't know why though.

"It was horrible... Nora..." Adriana sniffed.

"Shh... You can talk to me Adriana" Nora assured Adriana while softly stroking her messy hair.

"He- He raped me..." Adriana said, it felt horrible saying it, Vince was a horrible person, he had brutally raped her. Adriana felt Nora's grip tighten and she started sobbing louder.

"It's okay Adriana, you're safe now." Nora replied, she had no idea how to deal with a situation like this. This had seemed like the right thing to say.

"So, Melissa, tell me the truth" David started "Why are you staying here?"

Mel sighed "My mom hates me, my brother is some kind of criminal... I just don't feel at home there, I had one date with Adam and she practically kicked me out."

"Okay, that's quite something..." David thought for a moment and then looked straight into Mel's eyes "First things first; your mom doesn't hate you, as much as you think she does, she doesn't. I don't know about your brother and I don't think that's any of my busyness" David raised is eyebrows and continued "As much as I love having you here, Mel, I thought you should tell your parents how you feel."

"I know..." Mel said, she was blown away by David's truthfulness "I just don't feel like doing it alone though." Mel continued. David instantly took the hint.

"Yes Mel, I'll go with you" David laughed "You are having me meet a lot of parents tomorrow..."

"Woo woo woo, hold on, tomorrow?" Mel swallowed loudly, she didn't know if she could face Lisa tomorrow.

"Don't worry Mel, Adam and I will be there for you." David assured Mel, David was never a man that showed a lot of affection but her pulled Mel into a quick, yet meaningful hug.

"You know you love me..." Mel said after he had hugged her. She felt comfortable with David, she had thought she felt comfortable with Gus but now she had found out what comfortable really meant.

"No doubt about that." David laughed "Now, I'm going to bed, and I think you should get some sleep too." David continued as he stood up.

"You're probably right" Mel replied as she also stood up.

"Goodnight, Melissa." David said with the smile never leaving her face.

"Goodnight!" Mel said cheerfully as she walked back to Adam's room, she cuddled up to a sleeping Adam. He groaned in his sleep and wrapped his arms around her.

"I love you, Eddie" Loren said as she kissed Eddie lightly. Her first time had been amazing, perfect in every way. She had to admit, it hurt a bit at first but Eddie was so gentle. So loving. She felt amazing, she had no regrets. Even though she had done it the first night they were together, it had felt like they had been together for a long time.

"No regrets?" Eddie asked as rubbed Loren's lower back slowly. Eddie could barely contain his happiness, this experience was unlike anything he had ever experienced. This had not been sex, this had been making love. Eddie just learned the meaning of it. He just hoped Loren enjoyed it as much as he did.

"No regrets." Loren replied, she got out of bed and put Eddie's shirt back on. She had no idea how to act after her first time. Eddie was looking at her weirdly. "What?" She asked

"I might want my shirt back..." Eddie said as he crawled over to the edge of his bed. Loren laughed, she wasn't sure how to respond to this.

"It's me or the shirt" Loren responded, she wasn't even sure what she meant by that and hoped Eddie would find some kind of meaning in that statement.

"Can't I just have you without the shirt?" Eddie said while pulling her on the bed by the bottom of his shirt.

"You're quite something, mister Duran" Loren said before kissing Eddie passionately. She loved him with every singly part of her.
