Set Me Free, Leave Me Be

After Tommy leaves Jude on their date, Jude mourns his sudden departure. Jude finally decides to move on and she falls in love with someone; well at least that what she made herself believe. They break up. Tommy comes back and he still loves Jude. But, Jude has a BIG secret! (No, it isn't the pictures of her) The secret is so big that she never even told Sadie! Will Jude let this life-altering secret keep her from getting back together with Tommy?

Still the main characters: Jude, Tommy, Jamie, Sadie, Kwest, SME, Darius, Portia.

I might add more of the characters from Instant Star like Patsy, Karma, Paegan, Shay (maybe)

This is my first fanfic so work with me lol.

And please review.

Disclaimer: I do not own Instant Star. Nope, not me. It was a good show, very awesome.

Chapter 1

"Jude!" Sadie shouted upstairs.

"What the hell is wrong with you? How long are you going to keep this up?" Sadie was tired of Jude's face plastered on every stupid tabloid.

"Today's headline is a little more creative than usual", Sadie said sarcastically.

She read the headline to Jude as she slowly walked down the stairs and into the kitchen. "Falling Star, Falling Down Drunk".

Jude, who was trying to recover from the previous night's hangover, looked at Sadie with exhaustion in her eyes.

"Sadie, do you really have to shout? And do you really have to read that stupid magazine? If it's not something good about me then I don't want to hear it."

"Gosh. Jude! It's nothing good about you these days. Listen to this: "Rock goddess Jude Harrison was spotted once again at Lucky's bar. Jude may be a talented singer but she also can drink you under the table anytime. It's always sad when celebs turn into alcoholics. It looks like this shooting star is burning out really fast!" As Sadie read the article, she noticed Jude starting to nod off, so she poured her a cup of coffee.

"Well...what do you have to say about this?" Sadie asked.

"They're right. I can probably drink them under the table", she laughed.

"Jude this is so not funny. Look at these pictures of you. You're so drunk that it's ridiculous! Jude, we all know you're still hurting from your breakup with David, I've noticed it, so has Jamie, but is he worth losing your career? All of this is affecting your music and I know Darius is going to explode when you go to the studio today."

Jude knew Sadie was right. Her music hasn't been her best work lately. She would come into the studio late and not even try to sing her best. That wasted a lot of studio time, therefore wasting money. And Darius hates wasting money. But Jude was hurting way more than everyone realized. So in typical Jude fashion as of lately, all she said was "Whatever" then she grabbed her cup of coffee and ran upstairs to her room.

Before Jude ran up the stairs, Sadie saw something in Jude's eyes that she hadn't seen in a long time, and that was defeat. But she also noticed something new. She didn't know what it was, but whatever it was, it was hurting Jude more and more. When Jude was gone out of ear shot, Sadie grabbed her phone. "Andrews, we need to talk."

Please Review, Thank You.
