Chapter 1

"Jude, Tommy, I want to see both of you in my office, now."

They looked at eachother, expecting the other to give some knowledge of wht was going on. They both got up and made their way to Darius' office.

As soon as the were in the door, Darius shut it, almost hitting Jude.

"Sit down."

"D. What's going on?"

Darius looked straight at Jude.

"We are doing everything possible to get your record sales up and get some playing time, but it's not working. I have made some calls and got some of the top music executives to agree to meet you, so you better be at your best tonight."

Jude was in a daze, so Tommy voice what she could not.

"Wait...tonight, D. how can we be ready by tonight?"

"I don't know,Tommy but it better happen, I owe some major favors because of this."

Jude looked up.

"You have that much faith in me?" Her voice shaky.

"Yeah, I guess so, but you had better be great."

"She will be." She glanced over at Tommy, his confidence, overwhelmed her.

"Ok, Tommy I need a demo to present to the guys tomorrow do you think you could have one ready.

"Sure Dar."

"Good, now go make me some money. Be here at 7pm or get another job."

As she walked out of Darius' office, Jude turned to Tommy, with a questioning look in her eyes.

"You really have that much confidence in me?"

"Yeah...Do you remember last year when you wanted to quit after the Vinyl Place?"

"Yeah?"

"I told you that you were the real thing, and I still believe that you're even better."

"Thanks Tommy."

He continued to look into her eyes.

"Hey, what's going on?"

Tommy looked up to see Sadie in the doorway.

"Uh..nothing...Jude has to sweet talk a buch of music execs. tonight."

"Oh..sounds like fun...can I come?"

"Yeah, I guess if Darius says so." Tommy looked over at Jude, what was she thinking, the last time Sadie came to help Jude sweet talk music people she ended up drunk and soaked.

"Ok...what time?"

"Seven."

"Ok...see you there?" She looked up at Tommy.

"What?...oh..uh..yeah."

"Ok."

Jude had gone home at 4pm to prepare and change, Tommy stayed at the studio at the studio to work on the demo. He worked on the demo for a while before drifting into his own thoughts. Thoughts of Jude, he took out a piece of paper and jotted down some thing about his feelings, he had to get Jude off his mind and writing them down seemed to be the only way. once he had finished he put the paper on the soundboard and continued to work. He was about to fall asleep when he heard a knock at the door.

"Jude..What are you..."

"I had to see you."

"What are you talking ab..."

He was cut off by her mouth covering his...He was trying to think, but could only seem to get one coherent thought out. WOW!

There was another knock...Tommy opened his eyes, there was no Jude, just Darius standing at the door saying they're here.

Tommy stood up and streched out before walking out of the studio to greet the guests. He couldn't stop thinking about the dream, he had dreamt about Jude, that was the last thing he needed after what happened at her 16th birthday party. Before he knew it, he had reached the lobby. He looked up to see Jude standing in a group of older men, she laughed at their jokes, he loved that laugh. He could not take his eyes off her. She looked his way a couple times but was drawn back into the conversation a second later.

"Hey you."

Tommy looked down to see Sadie, she gave him a quick kiss, and looked in the direction he had been staring. She looked back at Tommy, who had averted his eyes, Sadie wonder what his intrest in her little sister was.

"How's she doing?"

Tommy looked back up at Jude. Tommy hated having to talk to these guys and watching Jude laugh at their jokes and talk to them, so he made some excuse, about working on the demo so he could possibly give it to them before they all left tonight. He left the lobby, leaving Sadie standing confused in the middle of everything. He stayed in the studio for awhile thinking, he then got up to go get coffee. He walked back to the Studio a full cup in one hand, he open the door to find Jude sitting with her back to him.

"You decided to ditch the boredom too, I don't blame you..." Jude had turned around to face him, revealing a tear stained face and the paper he wrote his feelings on earlier still in her hands.

"Oh..Jude..I can explain..."

Jude hade already rushed past him out the door. He crumpled the paper up and threw it in the waste basket before running after her.
