Her's abandoned

America's sweetheart

John's POV

As I drop little miss perfect off. I go straight to Pauline's apartment. Jennifer Preston is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen, but a man needs s*x. I am not sure I will get into her pants soon. Besides, my career as a politician comes first, and Jennifer Preston may be America's sweetheart, but I do not think my parents and brother will accept her into our family. I must admit I am whipped. But, I want her, and I will have her, and maybe she can become my mistress even when I marry a girl with a good background, which is not as mysterious as Jennifer. But I know I have to take it slow with the little rock princess. I will get her into my bed sooner or later. I stop in front of Pauline's apartment, and she opens the door as soon as I knock. She does not look happy to see me tonight.

"You went out with Jennifer Preston, and now you come here after you were with her all night?" Pauline says.

"Come on, Pauline, you know I have to do stuff like that for my career and to get votes. So why do you think I am not with her right now? It is because I missed you and wanted to be with you and no other woman," I lie. If I could get in Jennifer Preston's pants tonight, Pauline would not have seen me at all. Pauline smiles and lets me in. We do not waste time as I have to be at the opening of a new school tomorrow morning. I also know Jennifer is flying to New York for a couple of concerts there, and I want to surprise her tomorrow night by arriving at the show and wait for her backstage. I can not let her forget about me and the progress I made last night. I left after we had s*x and talked a little. Pauline begs me to stay the night, but I tell her about the school opening, and she understands as always. She is not that bright as I am avoiding the press seeing me leave her apartment. Besides, I have a busy day tomorrow. I have to capture the heart of America's sweetheart Jennifer Preston.

The following morning I look at the newspapers and see all the photos of Jennifer and me. I smile happily as it seems like we are a couple in the pictures. I know what I am doing, and no woman can withstand me for too long. I know I am handsome. The first one to call me is Logan. I know what he is going to say and that he will not be happy with the photos in the newspapers. Ignore his call and get in a hot shower. I know my mother and father will call me soon as well as Jennifer is a rock star and, in their books, not good enough for a politician that is just starting his career. I don't care. I know what I am doing, and there will be no scandals as last time with the actress. She got pregnant, and we had to pay her to abort my child. She wanted to go public with the story, and it cost Logan a lot of money to get rid of her and the baby. As I walk out of the shower, I hear my front door open, knowing it is Logan. He is the only one that dares to walk into my house and not even wait for me to invite him in.

"I am upstairs, Logan. I am getting ready to go to the opening of the school," I shout.

"I will grab a cup of coffee while I wait for you. You are alone, aren't you?" He shouts back.

"No, I have two women in my room. They are butt naked and ready to join me at the school opening," I say sarcastically.

"Hmm, so America's sweetheart is not as easy as you thought." He says.

"She is still young and does not trust as easily as I thought she would, but you know me. I have patience if I need to have," I say as I come walking down the stairs wearing my Armani suit.

"You know she is not the right girl for you. So why do you waste your time with her? Unfortunately, this time I will not be able to help you. Jennifer Preston is rich and powerful. She is not a little second-grade actress as you previous mistake. She is a superstar with a lot of money and fans," Logan says.

"I am not that young anymore, and I know how to use protection unless the girl is on the pill," I say.

"You still seeing Pauline? She has the right background and will be the perfect wife for a politician," Logan says. Sometimes I wonder if he is just trying to get Pauline of his case. I know she likes Logan more than me but will take any Hudson brother as she is no longer young.

"Yes, I am still seeing her, but she is getting old, and I think she fits you better," I say.

"I don't want your secondhand toys, thank you," Logan says.

"So when did you get back for your business trip?" I ask to change the subject.

"This morning when your mother called me in tears asking me to come and talk to you about Jennifer Preston. She does not want to see you with a rock star," Logan says. He sighs as he does not even like my mother, and I can not blame him. My mother was never a good mother to him. Now she uses him to keep me under her thumb. Jack and Jolene Hudson are not the best parents a child can ask for anyway. Logan is sipping on his coffee. He looks tired, and I feel sorry for my brother. Logan hardly has time for himself, and he is not married yet as he is always busy with the company. His ex-girlfriend is a model and left him for a designer because she said he never spent enough time with him. Logan never talks about his private affairs, and he never looks happy. He always looks tired or serious.

"I will not get Jennifer Preston pregnant, and I will only date her a few times to win the votes of the younger people," I say.

"Hmm, so you are using her for votes? I know you. You will not stop until you get her in bed," Logan says, and he looks at me with his dark eyes. Logan has black hair and dark brown eyes, where I am blond with green eyes. One will never say we are brothers. Women want Logan, and the Times magazine named him the bachelor of the year twice in a row now. I know women will kill to have him as a husband, but my brother is picky, and his model ex-girlfriend is beautiful. Well, not Jennifer Preston beautiful, but still beautiful. I think I am a bit in love with the little rockstar. She is known as America's sweetheart as she is always friendly with her fans but keeps to herself and does not even have a personal social media account. Only fan pages which her administration department runs. She likes to visit children's hospitals and orphanages. She loves children and animals, and she only donates to animal and children charities. I have read about her, but I bet Logan, my mother, and my father already have a file on her and investigated her past.

"So I bet you got a file on Jennifer Preston already," I say. Logan frowns.

"There is not much on her. It is like she covered her past up pretty good, and normally when that happens, it is because she has something in her past to hide," Logan says.

"Or she loves her privacy and doesn't like people investigating her," I say.

"Well, we will never know, will we? Since there is nothing on her," Logan says. I know he will get something on her if he tries, but he is not too worried about her now. If he knows how she has bewitched me, he and my parents will worry more about her. She is much more beautiful in real life as on TV or even in magazines and the internet.

"Are you flying back to New York today?" I ask. Logan looks at me suspiciously.

"Why are you asking?" He asks.

"I want to go with you, my schedule is open for the rest of the week, and I want to get away from mother and father for a while," I say innocently.

"It has nothing to do with the fact that Jennifer Preston is holding concerts in New York this week?" He asks.

"Well, come on. Give me a break, Logan. I want to have a bit of fun, and I want more votes. There is no harm in wanting to have a little fun, is there?" I ask.

"I am flying back at two, but I am not sure I want to take you with me. I do not have the time to deal with scandals again, and you look way too interested in the Jennifer," Logan says. I sigh.

"Well, then I will have to book myself a flight. You and mom and dad can not tell me what to do. I am a grown man," I say.

"In that case, you can rather fly with me. I do not want your mother on my case all day. She is a pain sometimes, and she always wants to protect the reputation of her son," Logan says. I smile as I know he does not have the time to follow me around, and I will have the New York penthouse to myself most of the time. Logan works long hours and comes home late at night. I know it is partly because he runs the Hudson business, but mostly I think he is lonely and does not want to come home to an empty house. He needs a wife, but since Melody left him, he is not really interested in women anymore and will only go out on dates occasionally. Unlike me, Logan is not a player and does not like to hurt people, so he does not give them false hope.

We leave for the opening of the school, and as we walk out of the car, reporters swamp me with questions about Jennifer and me.

"Mr. Hudson, are you and Jennifer Preston in a relationship?" One asks. I see my mother out of the corner of my eye listening to my replies.

"We are just friends at the moment," I say, and I can see my mother relax a bit.

"Mr. Hudson, would you like to date Miss Preston?" One asks me again.

"Who would not like to date Miss Preston," I answer, and my mother smiles happily as I avoid their questions. I hate to go to these events, but I smile all the time. The reporters see Logan, and they rush to him. I am forgotten when he is around. Logan is not as friendly as me with the press and will hardly answer any questions they ask him. The reporters give up as they see him walk past them and into the venue. They turned back to me and asked me all kinds of questions about Jennifer. Some that I can not answer as I do not really know her. I walk into the venue to avoid any further questions, and soon the ceremony starts. I smile and cuts the ribbon. I can not wait to get away from her as the children irritate me. I want to go pack, so I will be ready when Logan leaves. A week of freedom and a week of getting to know Jennifer better. I want to surprise her tonight and try my luck taking her to the New York penthouse. Maybe she will not be so prim and proper in New York.
