To Make Her Love Me
1. I've Seen What You Can Do
A/N: Okay, so as promised, I have a new story. It's called To Make Her Love Me.
Flashbacks are bolded.
Time frame: They're at Tommy's house in his studio. Tommy's just returned, and they're working in his studio rather than at G Major because of a lot of bad publicity that Jude has been getting. (This is an AU. It has nothing to do with what happened at the end of the season. Tommy left Jude, but she knew that it was a family matter, and that he would return. I haven't exactly decided how long he was gone yet, but it wasn't too long. Also, the bad publicity has nothing to do w/ the bar stuff with mr. hot guy and the pictures, because Jude never freaked because she knew where Tom was and that he was coming back. So read on...!)
Oh, and I think that I've decided that Jude is living with Tommy, and that Sadie is living with Liam.
"I've seen what you can do
I've seen you make mountains...
I-"
"My, my, my...Jude Harrison, how you've changed." Jude looked up at the door way, and who should it be, but Tom Quincy.
"Tom Quincy..." She smiled slightly. He laughed.
"So, where's this hit single I was told about?" He walked over and sat down.
"I don't have it done yet..." She sighed and looked down at her guitar.
"Why?" He stood and grabbed his coffee, walking behind her.
"I've been busy..." She sighed as he draped his arms over her, strumming the guitar with her.
"Doing what?" He followed her, laying his hand on her lower back. She tensed, and he pulled it away.
"Things have happened, Tom...things you weren't here to see..." She stood and walked over to her bag.
"You've never had a problem with me touching you before..."
"Well, like I said, things have happened...things that you can't fix.
"Like what? Atleast tell me what I can't fix...I have a right to know..."
She closed her eyes as tears brimmed in her eye-lids.
"What're you doing?" Jude slid back on her bed, pushing the dark-haired male away.
"Come on, Jude...I thought you were in love with me..." He pushed her down.
"I don't want it like this, Tom..."
"Sorry, sweetie...you've got the wrong Quincy..."
"Who the hell are you!" She jumped the bed, and ran to the door. He ambushed her, and she hit her head, falling to the floor.
"That...you'll know in good time..." He carried her over to the bed, sliding his hand up her skirt. She felt wetness soak onto the blanket under her.
"St...op...Tom...wou...ld...Ne...ever do...this..." She fought to stay consious, pushing his hands away from her.
"Sweetie, it's only a matter of time..." He covered her mouth with his hand. She weakly fought him for several minutes, before losing consiousness...
"Jude, what happened?" He pulled her to him, hugging her.
The scent of his cologne reminded her...
"Tommy!?" She ran up to the dark-haired male. He turned around and smiled.
"Well if it isn't Jude Harrison..." He smiled and touched her cheek.
"I thought you left..."
"I did...my brother was missing...But now I'm back for you..." He kissed her softly. She pushed himb back.
"Whoa, hey...not in public...I'm not 18 yet, remember?"
"Oh, right,...sorry..."
Jude shoved him back and fell to the ground. She pulled her knees to her chest, sobbing into her jeans. Tommy walked behind her, wrapping his arms around her.
"Honey, what happened?"
"Tom, why are you acting so strange?"
"I just wanna be with you, hun..." She stepped back, reaching for the door.
"Jude, don't go..." He walked to her, touching the back of her head.
"Get away from me, you psyco! Tommy would never call me Hun...he calls be sweetie or girl!" He grabbed a fistful of her hair and threw her onto the floor.
"Get away!" She crawled backwards until she hit the bed. "I don't know you!" Tears filled her eyes as she struggled to get away.
"Oh, but I know so much about you hun...Tom's told me so much over the phone..." He smiled, shoving her down.
"Who are you!?" She struggled against him, pushing her arms agaist his hands, which were gripping her wrists.
"Tyler...Tyler Quincy..."
"Tommy never said anything about a brothe-" Before she could finish, he shoved his lips against hers...
"Go away, Tyler!!!!"
"Honey, who's Tyler?" Tommy lifted her chin.
"How could you not tell me you have a twin brother?!"
"Jude...how do you know Tyler?" He helped her to stand, and they walked down to his kitchen. She looked into his eyes, unsure if she could trust him with this information, of even of what he would do with it.
"He...was here...in town...pretending to be you..."
"What? Jude, I left because Tyler was missing..."
"Well he was here Tom! I swear it!" Tears began streaming down her cheeks again.
"Okay, hun, okay...I believe you...But waht did Tyler do to you?" She looked into his soft, peircing blue eyes. "It's okay, girl... you can tell me anything..." She sighed and reached into her bag. He watched her pull out a small box. He gasped slightly when he saw what it was. "Jude..."
"I haven't taken it yet..." She sobbed lightly. "I'm afraid of what the outcome might be..."
"How..." He sighed, trying to put his words together. "How late are you?"
"About 6 weeks... at first I thought it was stress from everything that's going on, but..." He nodded.
"Do you want me to sit with you?" She nodded.
"Okay..." He offered her his hand. She took it, and they walked to his bedroom. She smiled at the large spacious area. He walked over to a french-victorian glass door and opened it, to reveal another victorian, beautiful dark red-brown door. He opened it and motioned for her to go in. She did, and we waited outside the door for her to return. About a minute later, she walked out and stood next to him. He picked up the timer on the dresser. "How long do we wait?"
"3 minutes." He nodded and turned the knob and then set it down, and turned to her.
"No matter what the outcome, I'm here for you always...remember that, okay?"
"Yeah..." She stared at the floor.
"Jude, look at me and say okay..." She looked at him.
"Okay..." She smiled slightly.
"If it's positive, I'm here to support you, no matter what your descision..." She nodded.
"Tom, if it's positive,...I don't think I could have an abortion...I...just couldn't do that..."
"That's fine...no matter what your choice, I'm here for you..."
"But if it's positive, I can't just have this baby out of wed-lock..." She looked up at him, making sure he knew what she was getting at.
"Baby, I love you...if that's what you want to do, I'm on the same page as you, okay?" She nodded, and stepped towards him. He embraced her, and they stood that way until the timer went off. She pulled back. "Do you want me to?..."
"Would you?" She smiled a little. He nodded and walked to the bathroom. After a few seconds, he returned, test in hand.
"What did it say?" He looked at her and held it up to her.
"It's positive..." He let out a long sigh and she nodded.
"Okay..."
"We'll figure this out...and I'm always here for you, remember that..." He caressed her cheek. She nodded, letting more tears fill her eyes. He kissed her softly.
-If there was one thing she knew, that was that there was a difference between Tom and Tyler. When Tommy kissed her, he put everything into it, and made sure she knew he loved her.-
He pulled back and for the first time in weeks, she smiled.
"NO matter what happens, I'm here for you..." She nodded, and sat down on their bed.
"This room...this HOUSE...is amazing..." Tommy shook his head.
"The house is cool...you're the one who's amazing..." She smiled, and he kissed her again.
She pulled away after a few minutes, and changed the subject a bit.
"You did all the decorating, right?"
"All of it...all on my own...except Kwest helped me move everything is..."
"Well it's great. All of it." He smiled and they laid down. She laid her head on his chest and closed her eyes. "Sing to me, Tom...please..."
"Okay...What do you want me to sing?"
"Words I Couldn't Say...It reminds me that you loved me even before we wanted to be together." He nodded. He'd written the song the year before after her 16th birthday. He had needed to remind himself that even though he'd made them both lie to each other (And themselves), that he still loved her. And when she'd heard it, she forgave him. (Of course, she didn't hear it (for the first time) until her 17th birthday...and that's when you could truly say they'd fallen in love.)
"In a book- in a box- in the closet
In a line- in a song I once heard
In a moment on a front porch late one june
In a breath inside a whisper beneath the moon..."
The day after her birthday, he'd began writing the song. The first 3 lines came quickly. A breath inside of a whisper...exactly something that would end up in something he would write for her.
"There it was at the tip of my fingers
There it was on the tip of my tounge
There you were and I had never been that far
There it was the whole world wrapped inside my arms
And I let it all slip away..."
No one knew more than Tom Quincy that he'd screwwed up majorly on her 16th birthday. He was lucky enough to have her forgive him. No, wait...He wasn't just lucky, he was fortunate. Not many girls could forgive a guy for doing that to them...But Jude was one of a kind...because she was his Jude.
"What do I do now that you're gone
No back up plan no second chance
And no one else to blame
All I can hear in the silence that remains
Are the words I couldnt say..."
He'd written the chorus when he got home that night. He knew Jude went home and cried herself to sleep that night...but she didn't know that he had also...the fact that he had to ask her to lie about their love for each other tore him apart...and he was never going to do it again.
"Theres a rain that will never stop fallin
There a wall that I tried to take down
What I should have said just wouldnt pass my lips
So I held back and now we've come to this
And it too late now..."
It had seemed that way for so long. It seemed as if there was no way that they would ever be okay again, and that he couldn't do anything to fix it...Luckily, they were able to find their way back to each other...they always could...
"What do I do now that your gone
No back up plan no second chance
And no one else to blame
All I can hear in the silence that remains
Are the words I couldnt say..."
And then he hurt her again when he broke Sadie's heart. God knew he did it for her, but he hadn't even done anything wrong. The only thing that whole mess really did was screw up her trust for him...for about a week.(lol)
"What do I do now that your gone
No back up plan no second chance
And no one else to blame
All I can hear in the silence that remains
Are the words I couldnt say..."
But at some point, he didn't know when, but they'd found their way back to eachother. As far as he was concerned, he was never going to lose her again. He'd came to far and fought too much to lose her now.
He let the last note drift into the air, and smiled down at her. She smiled back, clearly falling asleep. He smiled broader, and began singing the song again, this time softer, as she faded into a peaceful slumber...
So what do you think? Is it good? Bad? Ugly? Do you hate it? love it? Despise it? lol...just push that pretty little purple button and tell me!!!
