A/N: This is a one shot that just kind of popped into my mind one night. I hope you all like it and please review! (Also, I will try to update my other stories today. Sorry for the long wait!)

Jude, Kwest, and Portia all went backstage as Sadie's performance ended. When they got backstage they met up with Tommy.

"Did you see any of the performance?" Portia asked when she saw him. He shook his head as Sadie walked up to them.

"Congrats Sade," Jude said as she hugged her sister.

"Thanks," said Sadie as she looked over at Tommy with a smile. As soon as Jude let go Sadie walked over to him.

"I'm glad you could make it," she said as he smiled back at her nervously. "Why do you seem nervous?" she asked. She already knew that he wasn't at her performance at all. "Weren't you there, Tommy?"

"Actually," Jude said trying to break the tension, "He missed the ending because he went out to get these." Jude brought out from behind her back a huge bouquet of red antheriums.

"My favorite!" Sadie exclaimed as she took the flowers from Jude.

"Thanks for trying to cover me Jude," said Tommy. "But really I wasn't here because I was out getting these." From behind his back he brought out a huge bouquet of pink flowers that were like nothing anyone had ever seen before. Both Sadie and Jude gasped. "These, are for my star," he said as he looked at Jude. She stared back at him but then he turned away and gave them to Sadie.

Sadie covered her mouth and started squealing. She hugged Tommy tightly as she continued to scream. Tommy looked over at Jude and smiled at her as she tried to smile back but instead ended up staring back at him with a straight face. He looked in her eyes and saw sadness there. He stared into her eyes and the smile came right off his face.

Sadie pulled away and saw Tommy and Jude staring at each other. Frowning, she went over to her sister and shoved her. Still, the two never broke eye contact.

"What are you guys trying to tell me?" Sadie asked as she started to get annoyed. Neither one said anything. "Fine, while you two idiots stare at each other, I'm going to find Kwest and Portia." And with that, Sadie stalked off.

Finally Jude broke the connection and looked down at the floor. Tommy snapped out of his daze and saw that Jude still looked hurt. He walked over and grabbed her hand and, when she didn't pull away, he led her over to the first empty room that he could find. He closed the door and behind them and walked over to Jude who was standing in the middle of the room.

"What's wrong?" he asked her softly. She turned away not being able to bear to look at him.

"Nothing, I'm…really happy for Sadie. She was really great."

"I know I wasn't here, but after hearing some of the remarks from the audience, I'm not so sure that you're telling the truth." He waited for her to say something, anything, but she held her silence. "Look, Jude, if this is about the flowers…"

"What about the flowers?" she asked softly.

"That you thought you were saving me with them, right?" Jude groaned.

"Seriously, how stupid are you?" she snapped back finally turning to stare at him.

"What do you want from me Jude?" he said staring back at her with an equal glare. "Sometimes, I just don't get you."

"That's the problem Tommy! You don't get me. No one does." She dropped her gaze to the floor. Tommy stepped closer to her and lifted her chin so she would look at him. Their eyes met as Tommy spoke softly.

"I said sometimes. There are times when I do get you." She smiled slightly and moved out of his grasp to sit on the only couch in the room.

"Why do you do this to me?" she asked as she put her head in her hands.

"Do what?" he said as he sat down next to her.

"Why do you always confuse me?" she said looking up at him. He looked at her confusedly. She sighed, and then said, "Who is it that you really love?" He stared at her, shocked by her question. He then shook his head and looked away.

"Jude, you can't…"

"Don't tell me that I can't ask that question," she said sternly. "I'm asking and I want a truthful answer."

Tommy didn't know what he was going to say. He wanted to tell her with all his heart that he loved her, but he didn't want to risk ruining both of their careers. He could tell with no doubt that singing was Jude's passion and he would give up anything, even his feelings for her, to let her live her dream. So instead he said the first name that came to mind.

"Truthfully," he said, not looking at her, "The one that I truly love is…Sadie," he finished lamely. Jude stood up in shock.

"There's no way," she said before she could stop herself. Tommy stood up too and looked straight into her eyes.

"You said truthfully, so truthfully…"

"Truthfully I don't believe you," she said as she continued to stare at him in shock.

"Jude I'm trying to tell you…"

"Prove it!" she yelled at him.

"What?!"

"Prove to me that you love Sadie. Walk out that door and go and tell her that you love her. And if you don't come back…I'll believe you." Tommy stared at Jude for a moment to make sure that she was serious.

"Fine," he said as he walked toward the door. He walked out the door but before he closed it he turned and said, "I won't be back, so don't wait up for me." Then he closed the door and left Jude all alone.

Jude walked over and stood in front of the door. She waited a few minutes just to make sure that he wasn't coming back and when he didn't, she let the tears she was holding back fall down her soft cheeks. She lowered her head into her hands and stood where she was crying over the one guy that she truly loved. The one person that she loved more than music or singing.

A few minutes later, before Jude could even look up, someone had thrown open the door and before she knew it they were kissing her hard. She opened her eyes and saw that it was Tommy. For a second she thought about pulling away, but then she found that she couldn't resist him.

They finally pulled away and just stood there staring into each others eyes when someone came through the door. It was Sadie. They had just happened to be in her dressing room. Sadie took one look at them and knew that something had just happened between them since they were holding each other. She dropped the flowers she was holding and ran off crying.

Tommy, being the screw up that he is, took one look at Jude and then ran off after Sadie. Shaking her head Jude walked out of the room and down the hall to the alley. She hated how easily a guy could play with her emotions. She just wished she knew what the heck he was trying to do because now she was totally lost as to what was going on.

-------------------------------------------

Sadie ran off crying into the first empty room she could find and just before she closed the door Tommy caught her. He grabbed her arm and she pulled away and threw herself down on the couch in the room. Closing the door Tommy sat in the chair by the couch and thought about what he was going to say.

"Look, Sadie, what happened is that…"

"You don't have to say anything. I saw what happened," she said as she sat up.

"You didn't see anything. All you saw was Jude and I standing there."

"Yeah, holding each other as if you two had just kissed. Can you honestly tell me that nothing happened between you two and that you're just really close friends and nothing more?" Tommy was silent for a moment. "That's what I thought."

"I can't help it Sadie. I've tried to get over her, but I just can't seem to do it."

"I really thought you were it Tommy. You just seemed so real unlike other guys. How could I be so stupid to think that you would actually stay with me?"

"Sadie it's not you. You're beautiful and smart and I'm crazy not to like you, but I just…I don't know. Jude just seems so perfect for me. I really can't describe it."

"Are you sure she's the one?" Tommy glared at Sadie. Sadie rolled her eyes. "I didn't mean it like that. I mean she's so much younger than you. So are you sure she's the one?" Tommy thought on this for a moment. Then he stood up and told Sadie to do the same. "What are you doing?"

"Just…just let me try something. Trust me, okay?" Sadie nodded as Tommy put his hands on her hips.

"I like where this is going," Sadie said as Tommy rolled his eyes. Then Tommy lifted Sadie's chin and kissed her. He kissed her with everything he had in him. When they finally broke apart, Sadie stared at him. "What was that supposed to mean?" Tommy sighed and let go of her.

"Sadie that was the answer to my problem," she looked at him like he was crazy. He sighed again. "What did you feel in that kiss?"

"Umm…it just felt like every other one that we share, why?" Tommy shook his head and walked towards the door. "Wait, what was I supposed to feel?" Tommy looked back at her before he walked out.

"I put everything I had into that kiss…and it felt like nothing to you. Here's the answer to your question Sadie." He took a deep breath and then he finally admitted the truth. "I am more than positive that Jude is the one. There is no doubt about it. Even though she is so much younger than me, age doesn't seem to make a difference in this situation." Then he walked out of the room while Sadie sat back on the couch and put her head in her hands.

-------------------------------------------

Tommy walked out of the room and back to where he left Jude. Before he got there he saw Portia kneeling on the ground in front of the door. She was picking up the flowers that Sadie had dropped there earlier. Tommy walked up to her as she stood up.

"Let me guess, you're looking for Jude?" she asked bitterly.

"What's your problem?" he said as Portia glared at him.

"What's my problem, Tommy what's your problem? You go through girls like nothing. When are you ever just going to stick with one?"

"Portia what is this about? I think I've finally found the girl that I want to spend the rest of my life with and now you bring this up."

"What? How can you say that? You already had the girl you were going to spend the rest of your life with, now you're going to do the same thing to another innocent girl?"

"Are you talking about us?" Tommy said incredulously. "I thought we were way passed this." Portia opened her mouth in shock.

"We are passed that, but I'm not about to let some other young innocent girl get hurt the same way by you again." Tommy shook his head.

"Look, just tell me where Jude is." Portia sighed and rolled her eyes.

"She went out there," she said as she pointed to the alleyway.

"Thanks," Tommy said as he left her standing there.

"Tommy," she called at him. He turned back to look at her. "I really do hope that you have changed, for Jude's sake at least." Tommy stared at Portia for a minute then he turned and walked away without another word.

-------------------------------------------

Jude stood in the alley facing the wall. She couldn't hold back the tears that had welled up in her eyes any longer. They started falling down her cheeks as someone came out into the alley and stood behind her.

"Jude," she heard Tommy say. He grabbed her arm as to turn her around but she pulled away and walked further down the alley. "Jude you have to listen to me."

"Why should I? Every time you seem to do something right you have to go and screw things up. Why, Tommy? Why do you have to be the world's biggest screw up?" She turned around to face him and say that he was basically emotionless.

"Look, I'm sorry okay. I only ran after Sadie because I thought that you would understand. I just wanted to figure out the truth."

"What truth, what are you trying to say? Just say it and get it over with."

"Okay, fine. The truth is that after that kiss that we shared," Jude rolled her eyes. "I realized that there was something different about you." Jude raised her eyebrows.

"Something different about me, what do you mean?"

"Different in a good way, like…um…how should I explain this…like, you're not like every other girl that I've ever kissed. I felt something, different, when I kissed you." Jude thought about this for a moment. Actually, now that she thought about it, she kind of had felt different too.

"What does this mean?" she asked as she looked into his eyes.

"I have an idea," he said as he looked back into hers. "I think this might be it girl, the real thing."

"Wait, do you mean…" he shook his head. "Us, us Tommy… me and you…the two that are always fighting and yelling at each other, there's no way."

"I know it sounds crazy girl," he said as he stepped closer to her, "But I really do think that we were meant for each other." Jude looked at Tommy incredulously.

"I…I don't know what to say. I mean, what if you're right? I felt something too, but what does it really mean?" Tommy smiled at her reassuringly.

"There's only one way to find out," he said as he stepped even closer to her.

"Didn't we already try this way?" she asked as she continued to look into his eyes.

"Yeah, but now we know what we're looking for," he said as he crashed his lips onto hers.

Neither one wanted to pull away, but eventually they had to for air. When they did pull away neither one said anything, they just stood there breathing heavily. Finally, Tommy spoke.

"So…" Jude smiled.

"So I think I want some more," she said as she pulled him down for another one. Tommy pulled away.

"Now do you believe me?" Jude smiled at him and nodded her head.

"Tommy?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

"Nothing, I just wanted to tell you that I really do love you." Tommy smiled at her.

"I love…"

-------------------------------------------

Jude's eyes snapped open as the doorbell rang. She looked out her window and saw Tommy's blue viper. She groaned as she got out of bed. She looked at the clock and saw that she was going to be late for work again.

She hated how bad the timing of the ringing of the doorbell was. It was just getting to the best part of the dream. She sighed again as she thought about the dream. It had felt so real, but then again, how could something that good ever happen to her. Sadie was always the one that had the luck, not the other way around.

Jude sleepily walked out of her room as Sadie was coming up the stairs. Sadie rolled her eyes as she saw what Jude was wearing and saw her yawning.

"Tommy's here for you, it looks like you're going to be late again." Jude shrugged as she passed her sister.

"Just like every other day of the week." She said as she went downstairs and saw Tommy standing by the door.

"Morning Sleeping Beauty, looks like you're going to be late for work again."

"Oh well, looks like I'll have to spend another late night in the studio with you. That should be fun."

"Hey, I'm not the one who's lazy here." Jude shrugged as she walked out the door.

"Coming?" she called back. Tommy rolled his eyes as he followed her out to his car.

-------------------------------------------

The whole drive to G-Major Jude kept staring at Tommy. She couldn't help but think about that dream and what he was going to say. She kept wishing that someday the dream would really come true, but what were the odds of that? Jude shook her head and sighed. It was going to be another long day with the love of her life and her not saying anything.

They finally got to G-Major and Tommy turned to look at Jude. Feeling his stare she turned to look at him. He smiled at her.

"Are you okay?" he asked. "You just look like you're not exactly all here." She smiled back at him.

"I'm fine," she said as she got out of the car. "Or at least I will be," she said under her breath as she walked with Tommy toward the studio.
