"Omg…" Jude says as she looks at the person standing in front of her. "Hey Big Eyes." Tommy says with a small smile, afraid of what Jude's is going to be. Jude runs towards him and hugs him. Tommy smiles and closes his eyes as he wraps his arms around her.
They stand there for what seems like forever, when in reality it was only a few moments. Tommy inhales the smell of her hair that he had missed so much. Jude inhales the smell of leather and hair gel. Tommy picks her up slightly then places her on the ground, breaking away from the hug.
Jude smiles at him widely and looks into his eyes. "I missed you." Tommy says quietly. Just then reality hits her. This was the guy that left her on the night of the supposed to be first date. This was the guy that didn't return her 112 phone calls. This was the guy who was her producer and rock. This was the guy that left her high and dry with a sad and half way mean good-bye.
Her smile slowly fades as she looks at him. "Quincy you have a lot of explaining to do. Let's start with why you are here then work our way up the long list." Jude says. Tommy sighs. He knew that her moment of happiness of seeing him wasn't going to last too long.
"I checked my voicemail yesterday and I heard a message from Kwest saying you were about to go on a six month tour. I called him and asked him about all the details and bought a ticket." Tommy says.
"Why…why do you bother now after a whole month of not calling me and returning my calls?" Jude asks in a hurt tone. "I will tell you on the flight." Tommy says. "Yeah dude we need to get on the plane." Speed says. Jude sighs as they all walk towards the plane.
Once on the plane Jude found out Tommy had a seat right next to hers. She sighs and rolls her eyes as they put on their seat belts. "Do you want me to start explaining now?" Tommy asks. "If it's not too much to ask." Jude says in a sarcastic tone. Tommy chuckles lightly.
"I missed your smart eleck comments, girl." Tommy says. Jude smiles at him. "That's one brownie point." Jude says. "How many do I need to get you to stop being mad at me?" Tommy asks. "This is a 2 and a half hour flight. You should at least get 50." Jude says.
"I like challenges." Tommy says with a smirk. Jude smiles at him again. "Just start explaining, Quincy." Jude says. Tommy smiles and clears his throat. "I know that I left on the night of our supposed to be first date but I had my reasons. That bald-headed guy was my uncle." Tommy says.
"Scary looking uncle." Jude says. "Tell me about it. I am usually not scared of anyone, except him. Anyways, he told me that Portia's kid was staying at her house and that Portia had gotten into an accident." Tommy says.
"Why would you go to see Portia's kid…and where is Portia's house?" Jude asks. "Portia's house is in Montana and…my uncle thinks that it should be my responsibility to take care of her kid." Tommy says hesitantly and quickly.
"Why does he feel it's your responsibility to take care of her kid?" Jude asks. "I might have mentioned the words 'If you and Maria ever need anything just call me' when her daughter was born." Tommy says.
Jude rolls her eyes and shakes her head. Tommy decides to continue. "My uncle said Portia had gotten into a car accident. And I guess Maria knew because when I seen her she was crying and asking for her mom." Tommy says.
"That's why she has been gone?" Jude asks. "Yeah she has been in a hospital in Montana for the past month. My uncle believes that Maria is my daughter, when I have sworn up and down that she isn't. But it doesn't matter. I said I would take care of her if she needed something so I did." Tommy says.
"Tommy, who is Maria's father?" Jude asks quietly. "I…don't know." Tommy says. "Would you ever lie to me?" Jude asks. "No." Tommy says sincerely looking into her eyes. Jude smiles and places her hand on his knee.
"That's brownie point number two." She says with a small smile. "I'm sorry I left, but I had to." Tommy says. "That's brownie point number three." Jude says. Tommy laughs. "I think I will get up to fifty." Tommy says.
"Don't be so sure. I haven't completely forgiven you yet. My music has been struggling ever since you left." Jude says. "Well it probably has since you haven't been able to sit in your chair and daydream about doing ungodly things to me." Tommy says with a smirk.
Jude laughs lightly and hits him in the shoulder. "I'm so happy you can turn my pain and misery into a joke." She says as she looks at him. "Hey I am just trying to earn some more brownie points." Tommy says. Jude smiles at him. "Well you are going to have to keep trying, Quincy." Jude says.
"I like challenges." Tommy whispers into her ear. Jude smiles and shakes her head. 'I missed him so much.' Jude thinks as she smiles at him and looks at him deep in the eyes. "I missed you too." Tommy says quietly. "How did you know I was thinking that?" Jude asks.
"I can read you like a book Harrison. Nothing has changed." Tommy says as he brushes a strand of her hair out of her face. "Are you sure about that Quincy?" Jude asks. Tommy smirks. "Well nothing has changed about me…anything change with you?" He asks.
"Oh I didn't tell you? I'm two months pregnant with Speed's baby." Jude says sarcastically. "You know I did notice you put on a few pounds." Tommy says with a smirk. Jude's jaw drops as she hits him hard in the arm. Tommy laughs. "I was joking. You look perfect." Tommy says.
"Another brownie point." Jude says. "Wow I should try compliments more often." Tommy says. Jude laughs and hits his knee slightly. "So this is a two and a half hour flight?" Tommy asks. "Yeah." Jude answers. "Ahh I love airplanes." Tommy says.
"Why? Did you have sex on here with a groupie?" Jude asks. "Two actually." Tommy says in a matter of fact tone. Jude rolls her eyes. "You want to try it?" Tommy asks with a smile.
"I don't think I want to loose my virginity on a airplane." Jude says. "Why not? It would be a good story to tell." Tommy says. "Why, since it has you in it?" She asks. "Well that and because airplane sex is one of the kinkiest places to have sex." Tommy says.
"So I pass as the kinky girl type?" Jude asks him, getting closer to his face. "You pass as a girl that's always up for challenges." Tommy replies. Jude laughs and rolls her eyes. Tommy smiles at her reaction and gets comfortable in his seat. Jude smiles at him, thinking about how much she had missed their borderline R rated conversations. She also thinks about how much she missed their flirting and looking into each others eyes.
Tommy is quiet for a few moments before he turns to looks at Jude again. "What?" Jude asks. "Nothing, I just missed looking at you." Tommy says. "Okay who are you and what did you do with Tom Quincy?" She asks with a smile. "What's that supposed to mean?" He asks, acting hurt.
"It means before a month ago you would never say compliments or comments like that." Jude says. "For once I am just speaking what's on my mind. But don't get used to it." Tommy says. "Hmm you mean I actually get to figure out what really goes on in Tommy Q's mind?" Jude asks in a flirty tone.
"No you just get the PG-13 version of what really goes on in my mind." Tommy says with a smirk. "You know I do notice the way you look at me, Quincy." She states. "Oh really…and how is that?" He asks. "Like you want to do me right then and there on the Mustang or Viper." Jude replies.
"I was thinking more like the soundboard." Tommy says as her raises his eyebrows up and down. Jude laughs. She realizes that this is the most she has laughed in a month. She never knew one guy could make her laugh this much. But was she supposed to let him off that easy? Should she forgive him just like that? Tom Quincy was going to have to do a lot of sucking up to make her fully forgive him. Good thing it was a six month tour.
'I know she is warming up to me again but I know she isn't going to let me off that easy. I am going to have to show her how sorry I am and that she can still trust me. I have six long months to beg for her forgivness.' Tommy thinks as he leans back in his seat.
There is another update. I felt kinda bad for the cliffy so I decided to post again. Please tell me if you like or hate it.
