Author's Note: Soo, I've been so damn focused on my new series (or two stories, whatever) that I forgot that I wrote this thing like two, three weeks ago, and just never posted it. It's Julie and Luis's breakup from his perspective, with some pearls of Heather wisdom at the end. (Remember Heather, back before she was all responsible and super mom to Deena and Julian, back when she was Julie's sort of slutty friend?)
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the songs or Duck characters, I do own my OCs.
Timeline: That oh so fateful night, when Luis was a man whore...
Situation: Luis cheats on Julie...you know what happens next.
Song: One Night Only from Dreamgirls (Comes out on DVD on Tuesday! AHHHH!!!)
You want all my love and my devotion
You want my loving soul right on the line
I have no doubt that I could love you forever
The only trouble is, you really don't have the time
"Hey," Luis stopped as he was walking down the beach, hearing her voice. "I heard you were back in town."
"Hi Liz," He said quietly. He looked up. She was just as sexy and well, down right slutty as ever.
"So," she whispered seductively, moving close to him. "When are you and I going to get together?"
"We're not," he said firmly.
"Come on Luis!" She laughed, "Just me and you, having some fun, like we always do."
"Liz, we can't," He sighed, she looked at him confused, "Look, I'm with someone, at school, OK?"
"Oh," she smiled, "Julie? Or is it someone else."
You've got one night only, one night only
That's all you have to spare
One night only, let's not pretend to care
"It's Julie," he said quietly.
"How's that going for you?" Liz asked, moving her face close to his "Does she do it right Luis? Or does she do it all?"
"You're a bitch Liz," He smirked, "And I'm not going to screw this up. She's too important to me."
"That wasn't an answer to the question." She said.
"She's fantastic," he smiled, thinking of the times he and Julie had made love. That's what it was too, not mindless fucking like he did with this girl. "I'm in love with her."
"That part I knew," Liz laughed. "She's just this girl from school, way to casual a description. Fine, I'll back off." She kissed his cheek, he had to try really hard to not take her in his arms, "It's too bad though, we're hot together Luis."
One night only, one night only
Come on big baby come on
One night only, we only have 'til dawn
"Man you have to loosen up!" His friend who's house he was at said. "Chill out, have a few drinks,"
"I've already had a few," Luis laughed, "A few too many probably. I'm just nervous, she gets in tomorrow."
"Why?" He said, "Julie's been down here before. So now she's your girlfriend, it's about the same. Liz's been asking for you."
"I'm not gonna cheat on Julie with Liz," Luis said. "I'm not feeling great, I'm gonna lie down."
"Cool," He nodded.
In the morning this feeling will be gone
It has no chance going on
Something so right has got no chance to live
So let's forget about chances, this one night I will give
Luis lay down on the empty bed and rubbed his eyes. God he was confused, that morning, when he ran into Liz, he wanted her. Was the only reason he hadn't gone with her like he wanted too was to avoid screwing things up with Julie? Shouldn't he not want to be with another girl?
"Hey there," Liz wobbled in a drink in her hand. "I thought I might find you here."
"Lizzie, Lizzie, Lizzie," Luis shook his head, "What am I going to do about you?"
"What'd you mean?" She slurred, and sat down next to him. "I thought we settled what you were going to do about me, nothing. Unless you want to do something." She lay down and kissed him.
"Liz," he pulled out, "No." She smiled.
"Too late," she said, "You already kissed me back." She put her arms around him and kissed him deeply. He put his arms around her "Mmm, I missed you."
You want all my love and my devotion
You want my loving soul right on the line
I have no doubt that I could love you forever
The only trouble is, I really, really don't have the time
"God, I'm so fucking drunk," He whispered, "I must be out of my mind too." Liz balanced on her knees. "Oh now, what are you doing?" She smiled. "Lizzie, you're drunk too. We shouldn't be doing this."
"Maybe not," She said pulling the tiny tee shirt she was wearing over her head and then wiggling out of her mini skirt, revealing tiny pink lacey lingerie. "But we are." She threw herself on top of him and they started going at it.
You've got one night only, one night only
That's all I have to spare
One night only, let's not pretend to care
"Luis?" He stopped at the soft low voice. He opened his eyes
"Julie!" He gasped, moving away from Liz.
"Julie?" Liz said angrily, staring back at him. "I know you're drunk, but try to call me by the right name!"
"Julie," he repeated, standing up, he was completely stunned, he didn't know what to do. "What are you doing here? You're early!" He walked towards her.
"Obviously," he saw Julie shake her head. "God, I'm an idiot." He watched her turn around and walk out.
"Shit," he mumbled.
"So," Liz said, "That's her?"
"Yeah," he said, "Sorry." He ran out, after her. "Wait, Julie!" He grabbed her arm and stopped her. "Julie!"
"Who is she?" He heard her sob. No, this wasn't happening. He had made her cry. No, this is the last thing he had ever wanted
"She's no one," He lied, he lied through his teeth, She's your slutty twin, Jules, he wanted to say. "Julie, nothing happened." Because you walked in.
"It didn't look like nothing." She sniffed. She went on to break up with him. She broke up with him, he blew it, he screwed it up. Unsure of what else to do he went back into that bedroom.
One night only, one night only
Come on big baby come on
One night only, we only have 'til dawn
"No one?" He saw Liz bite her bottom lip. Oh God, now she was going to cry. "I'm no one?" She shouted. "All this time, I thought you were different," she shook her head and gathered her things. "But you're not, you're slime just like the rest of them." She slapped him.
"Liz," he said, "Stop it, I didn't mean it like that. She's my girlfriend, I love her,"
"And I'm just the worthless whore who you can fuck when she won't have you right?" Liz fumed. He stared at the ground. "Well, that may be true but at least I know it! I don't pretend to be the good girl Luis! I don't string girls along all summer, and then leave them alone in hotel rooms, go off to my fancy boarding school, get together with the perfect goody goody and then come back and try to act like I don't want people anymore and then when I get caught try to turn it into nothing."
"Liz," he said, "It was nothing."
In the morning this feeling will be gone
It has no chance going on
"No it wasn't," She shook her head, tears coming down her face. "You can't be both! You can't be the good guy, Julie's boyfriend and the player who used to fuck me senseless on the beach. Let me ask you something, when you sleep with her what's it like?"
"Liz," he said quietly, "Don't do this to your self." He shook his head and sat down on the bed.
"What's it like Luis?" She shouted. "Is it soft and sweet? Does she let out little giggles and tiny moans?"
"Liz," he warned her, "Stop."
"You were her first right?" She said quietly, "I remember what it's like to be a virgin Luis. I could do it if you wanted me to, I could be shy, quiet, and nervous, and barely make any noise. If that's what you want, I'll give you that." She crawled over to him on the bed and kissed him again.
Something so right has got no chance to live
So let's forget about chances, it's one night I will give
He pulled away and stood up.
"You're unbelievable," he shook his head. "I'm leaving." He walked out and saw Julie sitting on the stoop crying. "Julie," he said, "Please, just hear me out."
"No," she sighed, "No! We're done, I'm flying home in the morning. I'll tell your mom I got sick or something."
One night only, one night only
Come on big baby come on
One night only, we only have 'til dawn
Back at Eden Hall a week later Luis lay on his bed. He wasn't surprised that right now, no one was talking to him. What Liz had said to him had been echoing in his brain. He was slime, he had tried to be both guys.
"Hey Dean," Heather walked in, "Oh," she said.
"He's not here," Luis said. "Heather listen, could you tell her,"
"I'm not telling her anything," Heather said. "You're lucky to still be alive. Luis how could you?"
"It just happened," He insisted.
"I'm not her," She said. "I'm not the little innocent baby everyone protects. I've cheated, I've been cheated on, I know. These things never just happen." She shook her head. "I'll see you around."
One night only, one night only
There's nothing more to say
One night only, words get in the way
"I love her so much," he shook his head.
"Yeah," Heather said, "I know, we all do," she sighed. "We have more in common than you think Mendoza. God, I used to want you so bad."
"You tried to hook up with me once last year," He laughed. "I almost did too, if she hadn't walked in."
"And that's why you can't keep Julie," She smiled, "Tell your room mate I was here."
"If he ever speaks to me again," Luis nodded, as she walked out. "If anyone ever speaks to me again."
One night only, one night only...
