Chapter 3: The After Party

Loren's Point Of View.

Oh shit.

So many thoughts are going through my head at the moment. And looking at Eddie, scared to meet the eyes on the several people in this huge mansion, I can still feel moms eyes burning in to my skin, as with Max's.

They all know.

Tey all know that if Eddie and I were the only people in this room right now, we'd be having sex. Making love. Confessing our love to each other.

That of course is, if I didn't chicken out again..

Don't judge, most girls fantasize about their first time all through high school. I think it's completely normal. Sex is normal to thin about.

"Loren are you even listening to me?"

I blink my eyes twice and focus on mom. "What?" Looking around me, I notice it's only mom and I in the room. Where'd everyone go?

"We need to talk about what just happened." She sits down on the living room couch and holds the bridge of her nose.

Awkwardly, I stand in front of her and fiddle with my hands, "But nothing happened.."

"Okay, we're gonna talk about what almost happened.. What was about to happen.. What would've happened if you two were alone."

"Mom, please not the talk again." I groan.

"Listen, I'm not mad. I'm not mad nor angry, I just thought we agreed on that when you were ready, you were gonna tell me before it happened." Nora speaks and genuinely smiles at me.

I breath out an amount of air I didn't even realize I was holding in, and take a seat on the couch right next to mom. "I'm sorry, it all just happened so fast. We were having dinner and it was really romantic mom, and then I just knew.."

Mom turns to me, "Knew that you were ready?"

"Knew that he wouldn't leave me if Chloe or someone better came along."

A smile forms on my moms lips and she pulls me in to a tight embrace where she whispers in to my neck, "Oh honey.."

By the sound of her voice, I can tell she's just happy I've finally realized how strong Eddie's feelings are for me.

Looking in to my eyes, mom speaks with a sly grin, "But tonight, despite as ready as you are, can we please just celebrate all together?"

I quickly nod and laugh as I hug my moma again.

Soon we're all gathered in the living room again and from what Eddie's told me, I only know that Max isn't as supportive of what might had happened tonight, as Nora is.

That includes Jake, seems like he's struggling to hold back the screaming and shouting for tonight, which I'm incredibly grateful for.

Like mom said, tonight is celebrating.

Eddie sneaks an arm around my waist, meanwhile as his lips press to my cheek. I lean in to his soft touch and close my eyes as I smile.

"Someone's feeling lovable tonight.."

My comment seems to be funny as Eddie looks sarcastically at me, "Me? Lovable? Never.."

"Have you talked to Jake?"

"Babe we've been over this.. I love the guy, but our personal life is between us and no other."

"And I agree." I smile.
