Prologue

"OMG! It's Lil' Tommy Q!" Jude laughed entering the studio with her best friend Kat. You could say Jude had 'a little' more coffee then necessary this morning.

"You're late." Tommy stated, not being phased by her remark.

"Great job Tommy! You learned how to read a clock!" Jude said her voice calm and dripping with sarcasm.

"Jude, right now's not the time for games. We have to have this song done by 4 and you're 2 hours late." Tommy said sternly and clearly irritated.

"Fine, fine whatever. Bye Kat!" Jude waved to friend before walking into the booth. Turning serious Jude laid out her plan for the day. "Alright I wrote this song last night. Um, yeah I don't think it needs much work so I was thinking we could recorded and then figure out the rest from there."

An hour and 18 mistakes later ..

"Tommy! Are we almost done?! I'm bored!" Jude whined as she walked out of the recording booth.

"I'll be right back, Kwest." Tommy sighed ignoring Jude and walking into Darius's office. "D, are you busy?"

"Nope, Tom have a seat." Darius pointed to the seat across from him and Tommy immediately sat.

"Look Darius. I've been in here a lot lately and I was wondering if maybe .. I could have a break, like a mini vacation." Tommy asked nervously.

"That's a great idea Tom! I'll go tell Jude and I could sent you down to The States .. Maybe California. Jude could do a concert and everything. I'll go tell her!" Darius exclaimed barging out of his office and into Studio A. "Kwest can I have a word with Jude?" Darius asked getting a silent nod.

"Jude, Tommy just told me a great id .." Darius started, being cut of when Tommy ran into the office.

"No, D that's not what I meant by vacation I meant just me, myself, and I some place that I chose alone. I mean she's just so hyper for the last few days. I can't handle it!" Tommy protested.

"Tom do you want to go on this vacation on not?" Darius questions getting a nod from Tommy. "Then it's settled you and Jude are going to California for 2 weeks and I'm booking Jude at least 2 concerts." Darius finished with a stern face and walks away.

"Hey Tommy? Wasn't that the face you gave to me this morning? .. Yeah, I think you and Darius spend way too much time together." Jude smiles.

"What have I done?"Tommy thought aloud as he walked to his seat and tried to work.

"Come on Tommy, it'll be fun, after all you do love me." Jude says as she spun around in the chair that Kwest abandon.
