#Midnight Sun Challenge Chapter 1.36 Eddy's Movie Tour

Eddy respected Maya's wishes to refrain from woo hoo, for about a week.  After that,  he started subtly laying on advances, just to remind Maya of her very sexual nature. Compliments flowed easily from his lips, coupled with soft caresses and cuddles, whenever the opportunity presented itself.  Wooing a woman was a greater challenge then he knew and was a skill he never had to master before. All he ever needed to do, was bat his eyelashes and give a woman "the look", before winning his prize.  But Maya knew him too well and seemed immune to all his flirtations.  He still had not been able to seduce her back into his arms.  He thought he had won the battle one night, when he was able to get her cuddling in bed. He began whispering his usually bed play phrases and kissing her arm.  She laughed at first but underneath, he could tell she was wavering.  

Suddenly she stood up, declared things were getting a little too cozy and suggested that they should get off the bed.  He continued to try and seduce her that evening, but nothing worked.   Eddy had to admit, that he never thought she would actually hold out this long. Yet, she held fast and true to her conviction.  So he tried a different tactic, and asked if he could spend the night sleeping next to her.  She looked at him through narrowed eyes, trying to determine, he was sure, what his game was.  He promised with complete sincerity, that all they would do was sleep. She agreed, but very clearly reminded him to please respect her wishes. He patiently waited until she had fallen into a deep sleep, then he rolled over and cuddled her, loving the feel of her buttocks against his very hard groin. If this kept up, he would be forced to make a trip to the spa in Sunset Valley.  A man had needs, and if Maya wasn't going to take care of those needs, then he had someone in mind who would. Eddy knew what was at risk here, and he had to be careful with Maya.  Time was running out, and if he didn't take his time and make all the right moves, he was going to lose it all. Considering all his choices, Maya was the best road to take and that, he greatly understood.

Eddy had noticed, that Maya had been receiving a lot of text messages lately.  

When he asked, she told him it was Chloe, but he wasn't entirely sure he believed her.  If it had been just the texts, he might never have thought anything more of it. However, Maya was showing other signs of deception.  For example, she had become incredibly possessive of her phone lately. She kept her phone tucked away in her pocket, and was always making sure the phone was there. Normally she was always losing her phone, because she had laid it down and forgotten where it was. When a text came in, she read it right away and then deleted it.  It all led him to wonder, what or who she was hiding from him.  So one night after she had fallen asleep, he carefully slipped the phone out from under her pillow. He took it into the bathroom, quietly closing the door.

There were a lot of texts from Chloe and a few from her professors, but nothing else. He checked the log and found exactly what he was looking for. Entering the mysterious phone number into his phone, he went back to bed and carefully slipped the phone back under her pillow.  She stirred in her sleep and he covered, by hugging her to him in a cuddling embrace. Smiling to himself, he thought how amusing it was, that in her sleep Maya couldn't stop herself from needing him.  Satisfied, he fell asleep knowing that tomorrow, he was going to get to the bottom of this once and for all.

Monday morning, Maya immersed herself into her new job, while Eddy left in the afternoon to do a bit of publicity touring for his new movie: Love After Death.  The movie was set to be released in a weeks time, on the night the tour would finish in Bridgeport.  He met up with Paola in Moonlight Falls, where they began their tour by doing a radio show, hosted by Bryan Seacrest.  It was an interesting interview, as Bryan had quite the sense of humour, and seemed to have the knack for making even the saddest moments, seemed less tragic.  He enjoyed it and was looking forward to the rest of the very gruelling tour.  In front of the cameras or a microphone, Paola was full of praise for Eddy, smiling and casually touching him to portray a great friendship. Yet after the cameras turned off, she walked away from him, without saying a word.  Her people would whisk her away to do other things, while he was pulled another.  He found it all a little interesting, as it seemed clear to him, they were purposely being kept apart.  He figured that meant Paola had found out about Eddy sleeping with her daughter. However he didn't understand why that would be an issue.  What her daughter Ileana, did in her own private time was her business. Perhaps Paola was a bit of a prude? Maybe it was the supposed cheating on Maya, that she had a problem with.  Either way, he took the separation in stride and decided now was not the time to make it an issue.

They had done promotional events in four cities and were finishing with a movie premier in Bridgeport, where the movie was originally filmed.  Instead of staying with Paola, Eddy was put up in a 5 star hotel and he wished that Maya was there with him. Perhaps this beautiful hotel room would have put her in the right mood for woo hoo. He should give that some thought for the near future.  He didn't have much time in Bridgeport; after the movie premier he needed to head directly to the airport and catch his flight home. He was disappointed in the lack of time he had to catch up with his band mates, since he hadn't seen them in six weeks.  They hung out and practiced some songs, but Eddy was under strict instructions to stay in and retire early. 

 The next morning, Eddy and his band mates arrived to the premier at the Bridgeport theatre, in a stretch limo.  Eddy wasn't a sentimental guy, but he had to admit that he really appreciated the support he was getting from the three of them.  Fans were already lined up around the block, waiting for the arrival of the stars and for the theatre to open.  When he stepped from the limo, the crowd went wild with screams and cheers. The four members of the band met the crowd with hand shakes and posed for group photos. 

Eddy was lapping up the affection of the crowd, when he was pulled away to take promotional pictures inside of the theatre.

Eddy was loving all the attention he was getting, and began to wonder why he hadn't thought to go into film before this. It was something he was going to seriously consider now!  The group filed into the theatre and took their seats, while the patrons pushed their way in after them, trying to get a seat close to the celebrities. Two hours later, everyone came out a little more melancholy, than when they had first gone in.

When most of the movie goers had gone on their way, Paola walked over to Eddy and very sternly looked him in the eyes.  

"Now that this charade is over with, I never want to see you again.  Never do I want you to enter my home or have anything to do with any member of my family.  Have I made myself clear?"

"Paola, what is going on?  I don't understand why you are so mad."

"You don't need to understand Mr. Mullins.  All you need to do is follow orders."

With that she walked away, leaving Eddy standing there stunned. Black Hawk grabbed Eddy by the arm and began pulling him towards the limo.

"Eddy, let's go.  We are taking you to the airport."

In the back of the limo, the band members had a very serious chat, and when they were done, Eddy was left speechless.
