I forgot to put and AN! ;o Any ways, I love HH ^.^ This is second chapter and let's just say I'm a sucky writer, but it's improved. I use to be the suckiest writer ever. Well…..enjoy!

Loren and Eddie ate in silence. It wasn't awkward or anything, they were just….speechless, I guess you could say. The only sound you can heard is the clicking of the fork whenever it makes contact with the bowl to eat their pasta. Loren's eyes were glues on her food and Eddie kept on sneaking glances at her. Finally, Eddie couldn't take it anymore.

"Loren, are you okay?" He asked, setting his fork down. For the first time, Loren looked up from her food.

"Huh? Oh, uh, yea. Just a bit creeped out, ya know? I've never really had a stalker." She said, looking down. Eddie scooted his chair closer to hers and wrapped his arms around her, hoping she'll calm down.

"Look, I'll protect you. I love you way too much for you to go anywhere." He said. Loren looked up and him and smiled slightly.

"I love you." She whispered, placing her forehead on his.

"I love you too."

Loren and Eddie leaned in and once their lips met, Loren forgot about everything. All her worries, vanished. She felt safe. Right then she knew if Eddie was with her, she would be safe.

Finally, Eddie started to pull away. Loren opened her eyes and looked at Eddie.

"Promise me, you'll protect me?" She whispered, with fear in her voice.

Eddie had a serious face on and looked at her in the eyes, "I promise on my life. I love you too much. I will be with you 24/7, well except school." He said, laughing at the last part. Loren laughed lightly.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

After they were done eating, they put their bowls in the sink, and then made their way to living room. They sat down and watched Scream 4. Well, Eddie was. Loren had her face buried in Eddie's shoulder. She would sneak a little peak and would always regret it. She screamed and buried her face back in his chest. Eddie chuckled and hugged her tighter. After the movie, Loren eventually fell asleep on Eddie's chest. He slowly reached for the remote and turned off the TV. He slowly adjusted so that he could pick up Loren. He walked in his room and laid her on his bed gently. He covered her up and walked back down stairs to lock the door and turn off the lights.

Eddie walked back to his room and changed into plaid PJ's and no shirt. He slipped into bad with Loren and she instantly snuggled up agents him. Even when she's sleeping, she knows that Eddie's there. Eddie pulled her closer and kissed her head.

"Good night, Loren." He whispered. He closed his eyes and let the world of sleep over take him.
