Prologue
"(Marie's The Name) His Latest Flame"—an Elvis Presley song
A very old friend came by today
'Cause he was telling everyone in town
Of the love that he'd just found
And Marie's the name of his latest flame
He talked and talked, and I heard him say
That she had the longest, blackest hair
The prettiest green eyes anywhere
And Marie's the name of his latest flame
Though I smiled, the tears inside were a-burning
I wished him luck, and then he said goodbye
He was gone, but still his words kept returning
What else was there for me to do but cry?
Would you believe that yesterday
This girl was in my arms, and swore to me
She'd be mine eternally
And Marie's the name of his latest flame
Though I smiled, the tears inside were a-burning
I wished him luck, and then he said goodbye
He was gone, but still his words kept returning
What else was there for me to do but cry?
Would you believe that yesterday
This girl was in my arms, and swore to me
She'd be mine eternally
And Marie's the name of his latest flame
Yeah, Marie's the name of his latest flame
Oh, Marie's the name of his latest flame…
Now, change the "Would you believe…" verse to this:
Would you believe that yesterday
That boy was in my arms, and swore to me
He'd be mine eternally
Now Marie's the name of his latest flame
And you have my fanfic in a nutshell. With that alteration, the song then switches to Jude's point of view, watching Tommy fall in love with a girl named Marie. Wtf? Who on earth's Marie? If this is supposed to be a jommy, then why aren't Jude and Tommy together? These questions and more will be answered, coming up next.
