A/N: A little twist to this one- Jude and Tommy are teenagers. Tommy's in a band called Aces Over Kings (my friend came up with the name :D well it's better than Boyz Attack, right? LOL) and he and Jude are sixteen. Everything else is basically explained in the story, except that Jude has nothing to do with G-Major... Enjoy !
Prologue: Everything
"They won't know that we're together," Jude whispered, looking up into Tommy's eyes, "We're together right now, aren't we?" Tommy nodded slightly, but his eyes showed only guilt, "And nobody knows you're even here."
They were standing so close they could feel each other's body heat. His leather jacket was brushing against her pajama shirt as they stood outside Jude's house in the dark.
"We're supposed to have some secrets when we're teenagers, Tommy. It's like⦠the law," She said softly, giving him a small smile.
"But it's not going to be a secret anymore if you go with me on my tour," He told her, his voice so quiet she wouldn't have been able to hear him if she wasn't standing directly in front of him.
She clasped her hands in his and placed her head on his chest, "I'm not asking to go on tour with you," She smiled against him as he squeezed her hand, "I just want to know that you'll still be mine when you come back."
The smile was gone from her face, replaced by small tears falling down the soft flawless skin of her cheeks.
"I'm always yours baby," He whispered, pulling her hands up to his shoulders and wrapping his own arms around her waist, pulling her closer to him, "whether you want me to be or not," Tommy smiled against her smooth red hair.
"How can you tell me that?" Jude asked, reality dawning on her.
"Because it's true," He answered, looking into her eyes as she pulled her head from his chest.
"You're going on tour- that's like five hundred screaming girls that would easily get you to say that to them right there."
"Yes, but they're different. You are so much more to me than they are," He said, bending his knees slightly so his head was almost at her head level. He kissed her lightly, tilting her head up.
"I'm gonna miss you a lot," She whispered, pulling her lips only slightly away from his to speak.
"I'm going to miss you too," He said, looking down into her glistening eyes. He rested his forehead against hers, "I think you should go to bed baby."
"I don't want to," She said, shaking her head lightly as tears fell from her eyes, "The sooner I go to bed, the sooner I wake up and your gone."
"C'mon girl, don't cry," He whispered, pulling her head to his chest and holding her tightly, "I'm only gone for two months. I'm sure Jamie and Spied will take care of you while I'm gone. And if they don't I'm going to kick their asses when I get back."
He felt her smile against him, and gave her a final tight squeeze before pulling away from her. She lifted her head from his chest and looked up at his face, tears gently rolling down her cheeks.
"C'mon," He said softly with a smile as he put his hand under her chin and gently guided her lips to his, "I need to see you smiling before I leave."
Jude bit her lip, looking up at her boyfriend through watery eyes, "How am I supposed to smile now?"
A sly smile crossed his lips as his hands moved to her sides, tickling her. She laughed lightly, trying to push his hands away from her, "That's better."
Jude pushed his hands away from her hips and put her finger to her lips as a light went on in a window above their heads, "You should go."
Tommy nodded and kissed her hard, his hand on her cheek and his thumb lightly brushing against her skin. When their lips broke away, Jude gave him a smile knowing that it was what he needed to see to be able to leave.
"I'll see you soon," He said, lightly kissing the tip of her nose before turning around and walking back to his newly bought Viper that was parked across the street.
Jude's fingers lightly touched her lips, where Tommy's lips had just been, "Bye Tommy," She whispered, her voice barely audible even to herself. The single tear that fell from her eye rolled down her cheek and fell onto the ground where Tommy had just stood moments ago. Where her everything had just been.
