Monday Morning

Eddie woke up before Loren. He looked over at the clock and it said 6 a.m and he had to be on set for X Factor by 9. He rolled out of bed without waking Loren and got in the shower. When Eddie got out of the shower he went to his side of the closet and put on black skinny jeans with a gray shirt and a black leather jacket. Eddie finished getting dressed and it was only 7:30 so he decided to wake Loren up. He went over to Loren and kissed her softly on the lips to wake her.

Loren: *Sleepy* "Why are you up so early?"

Eddie: "I have to go soon."

Loren: "Ugh why?"

Eddie: "I have to be on set by 9."

Loren: "Do you want breakfast?"

Eddie: "Only if you feel like it, you're still sleepy do you dont have to."

Loren: "Nonsense ill go make you something."

Loren got up and went downstairs to make breakfast. Eddie was walking downstairs. As he past Kailyns room he heard her voice call him.

Kailyn: "Daddy?"

Eddie: "Hey princess, why are you up so early?"

Kailyn: "I couldn't sleep,so i decided to color."

Eddie went over and sat down by her on the floor

Kailyn: "Daddy, why has mommy been acting strange?"

Eddie: "What do you mean?"

Loren was walking up the stairs to ask Eddie if he wanted pancakes but she stopped when she heard Kailyn and Eddie talking

Kailyn: "Like mommy would be happy and then she get sad and then she get happy again."

Eddie: "Well sweetie mommy just has a lot going on right now and its all taking a toll on her."

Kailyn: "Daddy, i need your help."

Eddie: "With what?"

Kailyn: "I want to do something special for mommy."

Loren knew that that was her cue to go so she went downstairs and just made pancakes and bacon. 15 minutes later Loren called them down to eat and Eddie and Kailyn came downstairs and sat at the table along with Loren.

Loren: "So babe are you excited?"

Eddie: "Yeah, im excited i just dont like having to wake up so early and leaving my beautiful wife and daughter."

Loren: "We'll be fine and tomorrow Kailyn can come with me on set for The Voice and mom and pops said sometimes they can take her to."

Eddie: "I can take her on set with me sometimes too."

Loren: "Its almost 8:30.. you should get going."

Eddie: I know."

Eddie got up and put his plate in the sink, he kissed Loren on the lips and kissed Kailyn on the cheek then he left. Loren and Kailyn sat there still eating until Kailyn spoke up.

Kailyn: "I love you mommy."

Loren: "I love you too sweety."

Melissa and Ian were cuddling in bed talking

Melissa: "Babe, how would if feel is i said i was pregnant."

Ian: "I would be delighted, why do you ask?"

Melissa: "Because im pregnant."

Ian: "That's great babe, How long have you known?"

Melissa: "I just found out i took a couple of home test and they all were positive."

Ian: "Well my love i am so happy to have another baby with you."

Melissa: "Do you think we should go and tell Bella now?"

Ian: "Yeah she should be awake since its almost 9."

Melissa and Ian went to Isabella's room but she was still sleeping so Mel and Ian decided to go hower together and get dressed.

Eddie had arrived just in time to meet the cast members that will join him at the judges table and hang around until it was time to go on by 5 o'clock it was time to go live in front of the world.

Simon: "Ok guys we have to go to the panel now but since you just got here Eddie ill tell you what i told Ariana. The contestant will come on and sing and then you will say what you have to say about it then when everyone is done you will vote yes or no. Clear?"

Eddie: "Got it."

Producer: "Ok guys we need you to go to the entrance and wait for Mario to introduce you one by one."

The four judges went to the entrance and waited for Mario to announce them.

Loren and Kailyn were all dressed and sat down to watch the show.

Live

Mario: "Hello everyone my name is Mario Lopez and welcome to the X Factor season 6."

The crowd live audience applauded

Mario: "This season we have 2 new judges please welcome Ariana Grande and Eddie Duran."

The crowd applauded louder as Ariana and Eddie walked out.

Mario: "So Ariana starting with you, how does it feel to be a new judge on the X Factor?"

Ariana: "Its amazing i never thought i would be doing this."

Mario: "How about you Eddie? How are you feeling?"

Eddie: "I feel great and grateful that Simon wanted me to do this job. Its truly an amazing opportunity."

Mario: "Thats great guys thanks for being apart of the show. you both can sit at your seats and everyone welcome once again Simon and Demi Lovato."

Simon and Demi walked out and went to sit at their seats with Eddie and Ariana. Mario was still on stage as he announced the first contestant.

Simon: "Hello whats your name?"

Contestant: "My name is Sarah and im from Louisiana."

Simon: "What are you gonna sing for us today?"

Sarah: "Chandelier by Loren Duran."

Simon: "Whenever your ready."

Sarah stood in the middle of that stage and when the music started she started to sing:

Party girls don't get hurt
Can't feel anything, when will I learn?
I push it down, push it down

I'm the one for a good time call
Phone's blowing up, they're ringing my doorbell
I feel the love, feel the love

1, 2, 3 1, 2, 3 drink

1, 2, 3 1, 2, 3 drink

1, 2, 3 1, 2, 3 drink

Throw 'em back till I lose count

I'm gonna swing from the chandelier
from the chandelier
I'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist
Like it doesn't exist

I'm gonna fly like a bird through the night
Feel my tears as they dry
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier
from the chandelier

And I'm holding on for dear life,
Won't look down, won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light
'Cause I'm just holding on for tonight

Help me, I'm holding on for dear life
Won't look down, won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light
'Cause I'm just holding on for tonight
On for tonight

Sun is up, I'm a mess
Gotta get out now, gotta run from this
Here comes the shame, here comes the shame

1, 2, 3 1, 2, 3 drink

1, 2, 3 1, 2, 3 drink

1, 2, 3 1, 2, 3 drink

Throw 'em back 'till I lose count

I'm gonna swing from the chandelier
from the chandelier
I'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist
Like it doesn't exist

I'm gonna fly like a bird through the night
Feel my tears as they dry
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier
from the chandelier

And I'm holding on for dear life,
Won't look down, won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light
'Cause I'm just holding on for tonight

Help me, I'm holding on for dear life
Won't look down, won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light
'Cause I'm just holding on for tonight
On for tonight

'Cause I'm just holding on for tonight
On for tonight
On for tonight
On for tonight

Back at the penthouse Loren felt so honored that other people not only like her songs but they sing them and make it their own.

Kailyn: *Leaning back on Loren's chest* "Mommy she sung your song."

Loren: *Smiling* "I know sweetie she did amazing."

Back on the show when Sarah was done singing Demi was the first one to speak

Demi: "And that Ladies and Gentlemen is how you sing a Loren Duran song. Sarah you did amazing, and that is the only word i can use to describe you. When you got to the second verse i heard your voice start to shift away a little bit but then you came back and you KILLED IT!"

Simon: "You are a star waiting for her big break. I have never heard a sing;e soul who could sing that song. When you listen to the original version from Loren herself there are so many ways that she changes her voice around in the song and thats why that is such a hard song to sing but you did it."

Sarah: *Smiling hard* "Thank you."

Eddie: "Sarah i definitely think you picked the perfect song to sing for this audition because it shows that you're to sing risky song such as that one. I've listened to people other than Loren try to sing that song and they couldn't but you could and thats incredible."

Ariana: "I agree with Eddie. Thats one of my favorite songs ever because it has such a powerful meaning behind it and the way you sung made it that much more meaningful."

Mario: "Judges i think it time to vote."

All of the judges said yes. For 2 more hours they auditioned 150 people. By 8 o'clock Eddie got home and he was so tired and exhausted but he fought it because he wanted to spend time with Loren.
