What has happened to us?
Chapter 16:
Eddie's POV:
I know hate is a really mean and cruel word to say but you know what I am going to say it anyway. I really hate Chloe she is just a vindictive piece of work. I have no idea how I fell in love with this women, if someone had warn me earlier then I would have probably listened. In my mind I thought Chloe was the one for me or the perfect person to be with but I opened my eyes when she started lying to me and deceiving me which battered me but I got over it. What caused this pain to go away was all because of Loren. She made me open my eyes to someone new and that was her she made me a better person and made me forget all about Chloe and how she made me see someone different. Sometimes I also want to thank Chloe for doing this to me, if she didn't I would not have been with Loren. But I can't say that "I would not have been with Loren" when I already lost her. *driving to Chloe's house she kept calling my name but I didn't really listened because I was lost in my own little world, but when I got out of it I finally heard her*
Chloe: Eddie. *yelling at this point*
Eddie: What? *I said annoyed*
Chloe: You went out of it, I was just seeing if you were ok. *trying to sound sincere*
Eddie: Chloe all you care about is yourself so you don't have to play that game with me.
Chloe: Well then fine. *folding her arms*
*There was silence in the car but Chloe ruined it by talking again*
Chloe: You know I really do care about you right.
Eddie: Really, so why can't I just break up with you and I can go back to Loren.
Chloe: You know exactly why Eddie.
Eddie: No I really don't because if I knew I would have been dumped you and the only thing I know is you threating me about something.
Chloe: I didn't know you could be so cruel and care about this little girl.
Eddie: Well get use to it, because until you tell me why I can't go back to Loren you will see me act like this. And Loren is so much mature then you are it is crazy.
Chloe: Fine, your talk is boring me I will tell you. I threaten you because I wanted you to leave Loren because I have people watching over her every move so if you cross me such as going to her and telling her this, or even break up with me, she is gone from your life forever. (and no they are not going to kill her)
Eddie: You're lying.
Chloe: Do you really want to find out if I'm lying or not, you have no idea what I'm capable of.
Eddie: I do know what you're capable of Chloe but it is not threatening someone, if someone such as you lay a finger on Loren I will kill you myself.
Chloe: Has anyone ever told you, that you are sexy when you are mad. *squinting her eyes*
Eddie: Get out of my car. *clenching his teeth together*
Chloe: Ok but you don't have to pick me up tomorrow I have a photo shoot and I have plans after that ok love ya. *she blew him a kiss when she got out the car*
*Eddie just sped down the road on his way home. When he got home he went straight to his bedroom and went to sleep. He wanted to forget all about this day and start a new one tomorrow morning*
Tuesday Morning:
Loren's POV:
When I got up I had this burst of inspiration I started writing duets for me and Eddie and me and Tyler. I wonder if they have even written anything at all. I don't want to do all the work while they get all the credit but I know Jake and Kelly would not let that happen. When I got out of bed I brushed my teeth jumped in the shower. Then I put on a white V-neck short sleeve shirt with some grey sweat pants and some tennis. I knew that we would be in the recording studio all day today so I felt like being comfortable. I made sure to have a rubber band on my wrist so that if I got hot I could just put it up. The only make-up I had was mascara and lip balm. I had just enough time to get myself some coffee from Starbucks. I ran inside there and then was on my way to the recording studio. By the time I was there Kelly and Jake and other people that work in the recording studio was there.
Loren: Hey guys. *putting my purse on the couch*
Kelly: Hey Loren.
Jake: I'm glad that you are early.
Loren: I told you the first time I started I was going to let you or anyone else down and that is starting today.
Kelly: Did you get any song writing down?
Loren: I exactly did, this morning I got up and felt really inspired.
Kelly: Well good.
Tyler: Good morning everyone. *taking a sip of his coffee*
All: Good morning.
Jake: Did you get any work done?
Tyler: Yeah I got at least three to four songs down.
Jake: Good.
Eddie: Hey guys.
All: Hi.
*Before Jake could ask Eddie beat him to it*
Eddie: Yes Jake I got some work done.
Jake: How did you know what I was about to say.
Eddie: You are an open book I know everything that you are about to do. *referring to work wise*
Jake: Good so, since everyone is here I thought you guys can just get into a room and just work on some songs and then if you want we can record some today or tomorrow when you come back.
Loren: That sounds good to me.
Kelly: Ok, follow me. *showing them to their room where they can work*
Kelly: Here it is.
Loren: Thanks Kel.
Kelly: Welcome, if you guys need anything we are right around the corner.
Eddie: Ok.
Kelly: Alright I'm going to leave you guys to writing the music.
*When they went inside it was silent until Loren broke it*
Loren: So… *trying to start conversation*
Tyler: Yup.
Loren: Did you guys start writing?
Tyler: Yeah I wrote this song called Temporary Bliss and Radioactive.
Loren: Do you have all the lyrics?
Tyler: Yeah I do what about you.
Loren: What about me what?
Tyler: Do you have any songs?
Loren: Oh, yeah I do I have duets for each of us and just ordinary songs.
Tyler: So what are the duets called?
Loren: For me and you is called The War Within and for Eddie and I Just give me a Reason.
Eddie: Ok, did you finish them.
Loren: Not all of them but they are getting there. *turning to him but then turned back to her song writing book*
Tyler: Do you mind if we could work on our song together?
Loren: No I don't mind at all.
Eddie: You know I have songs to.
Loren: Really, what are they called?
Eddie: One is called Toy Soldiers. Another one is Fireflies and Bulletproof Weeks. I also have a surprise after those three songs.
Loren: Oh ok, so are you ready to get to work Tyler.
Tyler: Yup.
Loren: So I have slow down and wait for something else stand up, remember where you fell you're like a kid on the front lines you're shaking through the worst hard times but there's a way out so let go, don't let it get down. It's just a start.
Tyler: I like it.
Loren: Yeah. *smiling*
Tyler: Yeah I like it a lot exactly.
Loren: Thinks do you have any ideas of what I can add to it.
Tyler: Yeah I think I do, try this I have a feeling that we can battle the war within.
Loren: I like that but we called also say whoa, I got a feeling we can battle the war within.
Tyler: I like that better to.
Loren: Ok.
*As time passed all of them had gotten almost everything done Loren and Eddie worked together for a little while with their duet and they each worked on their own separate songs until lunch time. This came around pretty fast, after they ate their lunch they got right back to work. At the rate they were going they called all record but tomorrow and have Thursday off and then just have Friday to do the photo-shoot. Once everyone was done everything it was around nine o'clock at night and everyone was heading home. Once Loren got home she went straight to the bedroom and went to sleep. Then Eddie went home and took a water out of the fridge and went to the piano to practice his surprise song he was going to do after he finished his other songs. Lastly Tyler went to Rumor to get something to eat and then went home eating his dinner and watching TV*
Wednesday Morning
Tyler's POV:
Today was a normal day we didn't have to be at the studio until elven and I had a good hour and a half. I decided that I would jump in the shower and get dress in a button down dark blue shirt with some jeans and some tennis shoes. After I got dress I had enough time to go to the studio and wait until everyone got there. When I got there Loren was already there she had on rolled up skinny jeans with white wedges which had silver lining bordered around them and a high-low white top and some silver bangles and silver hoops and her hair was straight. *she realized I was staring at her so she said something*
Loren: Hi Tyler.
Tyler: Hi Loren I thought I was going to be the first one on time.
Loren: I just wanted to get more work done so I thought I could come in a little earlier.
Tyler: Did you finish all of the songs.
Loren: Yeah I did, I was hoping I could record them today and then have the day off tomorrow.
Tyler: Cool.
Loren: Do you like working in the music industry?
Tyler: Yeah I do its different from acting.
Loren: Why did you want to join? Oh my god that is none of business, I'm sorry that I even asked that.*turning back around to face the booth*
Tyler: No it is ok. *chuckling*
Loren: Are you sure because I don't want to be nosy.
Tyler: No it is ok, I knew deep down I like to sing but it just never came out so I thought I would give it a try and here I am.
Loren: *Nodding her head* cool.
Tyler: I'm going to go and get something from the vending machine do you want anything.
Loren: No thanks.
Tyler: I will be right back.
Loren: Ok. *going to her bag and getting her songwriting book and then going back to the chair she was sitting in*
*When Tyler left to go downstairs Eddie was just coming in*
Eddie: Hey.
Loren: Hi.
Eddie: Are you the only one that is here?
Loren: No Tyler went downstairs to go and get something from the vending machine.
Eddie: Do you think we can talk anytime soon?
Loren: *Avoiding his gaze* we are talking.
Eddie: I mean talk at a nice restaurant and see if we can fix this.
Loren: Fix what Eddie? *closing her songwriting book and now looking up at him*
Eddie: Fix everything.
Loren: Your still not giving me the "what" *pointing up air quotes* part.
Eddie: Us, I want us to fix our friendship, no more running just us and a nice lunch or something.
Loren: I don't think that's a good idea Eddie.
Eddie: Every time you say that just proves to me that we do need to fix something.
Loren: Every time I do talk to you I just keep on getting hurt and I don't want to do that.
Eddie: And I understand that, I know you might have some questions and I can answer them all if you just agree to have lunch with me.
*Before Loren could answer Jake, Kelly, and Tyler walked in*
Jake: Oh good you are all here.
Loren: Yeah I'm ready to get started, if everyone doesn't mind if I go first. *trying to avoid the answer and the look from Eddie*
Tyler: No not at all.
*It took Loren about two hours to finish all of her songs because of the water breaks she took and making sure her voice was ok. After Loren went I went and I just ran through them I didn't need to stop or take breaks. Once I was finished Eddie went and then we each did our duets and we were finished. By the time everyone was done it was ten o'clock at night*
Kelly: Great job you guys.
Jake: Oh, and by the way the show is sold out we gave away the tickets on Monday and they were sold out on Tuesday.
Loren: Wow.
Eddie: We are still having it at my dad's club right.
Jake: We might can't.
Loren: What do you mean we "might can't" *pointing up air quotes* where would we have the concert.
Jake: We can have it at the Avalon.
Eddie: Isn't it last minute.
Jake: No we have three days and I think we can book it I don't see any other rock stars booking there concerts on Saturday.
Kelly: But don't worry about it we are your managers we can handle this, so you don't have to come to the studio tomorrow enjoy you're day off and we will see you on Friday at MK for the photo-shoot.
Loren: Ok bye guys.
Eddie: Bye.
Tyler: See ya.
*When Loren got in her car she called her mom and wanted to know if she wanted to go to lunch and she said "sure." When she got home she fixed herself some cup noodles and watched an old movie until she fell asleep on the couch*
Thursday Morning
Loren's POV:
Loren got up really early today she put on her sports bra and sports shorts with some tennis shoes and went for a long run since she hasn't gone in a while. She thought about a lot of stuff when she went running with her headphones in. She thought about the concert, her songs, and Eddie and oddly enough Tyler. She felt like she could kind of trust him but every cute boy that came her way she thought she could trust and she wasn't going to let that happen again. After her long run she came home took a shower and got ready for lunch with her mom. When Loren got out the shower she put on a flyaway-back tank top with kitten flare pant in stretch twill (black color pants) with some platform black pumps on and a nice whit clutch with her in a French braid to the side and some medium size hoops. She left out the door and went to Rumor where she was meeting her mother. It took about fifteen minutes to get to Rumor and when she came she saw her mother already sitting down at the table looking at the menu. When the lady directed her to the seat, she hugged her mom and sat down.
Loren: Hi mom.
Nora: Hi sweetie.
Waiter: Hi my name Chris I will be serving you today. Can I start you off with anything to drink?
Loren: Uh, can I have water please.
Chris: Sure and you.
Nora: I will have strawberry lemonade.
Chris: I will be right back with your drinks.
Nora: So how have you been, it seems like we haven't seen each other in a long time.
Loren: I have been good; it is a lot of work to put together a concert.
Nora: I can see that we haven't talk in I don't know how long.
Loren: So, how was the honeymoon?
Nora: It was really romantic.
Loren: Awww that's so sweet. What did you guys do?
Nora: We went swimming went on a nice tour of the entire island, and we went to an amazing dinner with a lot of other stuff going on.
Loren: That seems cool.
*After Loren said that the waiter came and brought their drinks and asked "if they were ready to order" and they were and he said "he would be back in ten minutes to bring out their food"*
Nora: How are the songs coming? *taking a sip of her drink*
Loren: There going great exactly, I wanted to talk to about that to.
Nora: Ok.
Loren: Tyler and Eddie are working with me.
Nora: You mean both of them.
Loren: Yeah.
Nora: When did Tyler get into the music business and is he any good?
Loren: He came about two or three days ago but I think he sounds pretty good he said 'he got not really bored with acting he just wanted something you with his life' and he found singing.
Nora: How is Eddie dealing with this?
Loren: I don't know they don't talk to each other at all so I don't know.
Nora: How do you feel about this?
Loren: I'm fine. *casting down her eyes*
Nora: Loren.
Loren: I'm serious I am fine.
*The waiter brought their food while they were still talking*
Nora: Ok, just making sure.
Loren: Yup.
Nora: Have you talked to Mel lately.
Loren: I have been so busy with work, have you talk to her.
Nora: Yeah she is just worried about you because you weren't returning any of her calls.
Loren: I will call her after I finish with you, but once I get into that house I just fall asleep.
Nora: Ok.
*It took them about twenty minutes to finish and pay the bill. After they paid the bill they said their good byes and went their separate ways. Once Loren got into the car she called Mel to see what she has been up to. She told her everything that has been going on with the concert all the way to Eddie and Tyler. They spent a good hour on the phone talking about Mel and her life problems too. When she got off the phone with Mel she decided she didn't want to go home just yet, she decided that she wanted to clear her head and go to her secret spot. She knew if she went up there she would probably see Eddie but she didn't care. If she saw him she would just go home. To her surprise Eddie wasn't there and she was glad. She leaned on the old tree and just looked at the clouds and the view and forgot about how beautiful it was. Since their break-up she hasn't been to this spot in over a year*
(Taking a break from Loren going to Eddie and Papa Max)
Eddie's POV:
I thought I would stop by papa Max's house before I went to my secret spot to write more music. Since I didn't pick him and Nora up at the airport because of studio time I wanted to know how the vacation was. Getting into my car but before I did that I said "hi" to Jeffery and went outside. Since the house was in the valley I had to beat traffic time and it took me at least an hour an half to get to the Duran residences. I knew Nora had went to lunch with Loren so I was safe because the only time I saw Nora was when we were under the same roof at the wedding or at Loren's house. And she hasn't talk to me since then. *I got out of the car and knocked on the door*
Max: Hey son. *doing a fatherly son hug*
Eddie: Hey pop. *coming inside the house*
Max: How have you been? *sitting down on the couch*
Eddie: I have been good, a little sleepy but that's it.
Max: Good, how is the music coming?
Eddie: Good, but it is not great.
Max: I think I can make that change.
Eddie: Pop you know you can't hear my songs; you have to wait like everyone else.
Max: It was worth a try.
Eddie: Yeah, I can tell.
Max: How is Loren?
Eddie: What do you mean?
Max: I mean like are you guys getting a long is she talking to you.
Eddie: Yes and no.
*Max had a confused look on his face*
Eddie: I mean she talks to me when we have to do work and then we don't do work she ignores me.
Max: I wouldn't blame her.
*Eddie just gave him a look*
Max: I mean this in the nicest way possible, you broke her heart and you expect her to just come in open arms and say something to you.
Eddie: No, I don't expect that but there is something I haven't told anyone.
Max: And that would be…
I know this is a long ass paragraph but just read it…and you will just have to wait and see what happens next.
Cliffhanger… I know but here is the story. I will continue probably from Papa Max or I will just go to someone else POV. When I do another chapter after the POV and start to talk with the characters or something, it will go to Friday and Saturday. Hoped you enjoyed the story. I also want to know what Eddie will tell Papa Max could it be what Chloe said or something else. Tell me! I also know that you are tired of Loren not speaking to Eddie and they will speak…also people want to know if Eddie is going to get back together with Loren and they will it just takes time. One more thing about the songs I am going to list them and who they are by ok here I go… Eddie's songs Toy Soldiers is by Marianas Trench, Fireflies is by Ron Pope, and Bulletproof Weeks by Matt Nathanson. Also tell me what you thin Eddie's surprise song would be and give me some ideas of what you would like it to be. Also tell me if you like the songs I picked they are really good, I can change them last minute if you don't like them your comments really help the only thing I am not changing with Eddie song is Bulletproof Weeks because I really like it and I do not care if you don't like it (not trying to rude or anything). On to Tyler's songs Temporary Bliss by The Cab and Radioactive by Imagine Dragons. I will not be changing any of Tyler's songs because they fit him so much especially Temporary Bliss because of Chloe so yeah but anyway I love them you should really check them out. The duet for Tyler and Loren is The War Within by Churchill. Then the song for Eddie and Loren is called Just Give me a Reason who is by P!nk but the cover I like better is by Tiffany Alvord ft. Trevor. This is how they will be singing it on this fanfic. I hope you like the song because it is really heartfelt and once I heard it, it was just perfect for them and their relationship. The song for Loren I haven't really thought about them and if I did they are in the previous fanfics. So I will have to go back and pick a song out for her…if you guys have any ideas of a song they you would like for me to hear for her I am happy to ideas. So just message me.
Until next time,
