I forgot to mention this in the first chapter, tommy is 19 and Jude is 17. I posted this story on DLS first so most of it is already done.

Chapter 2

Get Over Yourself

The Boyz were practicing their dance moves when he saw the girl watching. Tommy didn't notice the smirk she was trying hard to contain. She had long wavy bright red hair and a slender body that curved in all the right places. She was wearing a small tight concert T and low tight jeans. He had been getting bored of all the girls that hung around them. They were all the same blond or brunette so willing to please. He could tell this was one was different. He stopped dancing and walked over to her, still eying her like a piece of meat.

"So do you like what you saw?" She glanced at him quickly, then looked past him, not saying anything. "You must be the new backup singer. What's your name?" He continued. Although she didn't really fit the type, she was attractive enough, with those big blue eyes outlined with liner. She rolled her eyes and finally spoke.

"Yeah...Um...I don't do backup for anyone." She walked past him, without answering his questions, heading towards Darius who had just come in with 3 boys about her own age. She joined them and they started talking. His band came up to him as he continued to watch the group.

"Who is she?" Sean asked, checking out the new talent. Tommy shrugged.

"You didn't even get her name?! Dude she shot you down, didn't she?" Chaz said gleefully. He had been jealous of Tommy ever since Tommy had started getting more attention from the fans than him. Darius looked up and waved them over to his group. Chaz eyed Jude with interest.

"Hey guys I'd like you to meet Jude Harrison and her band Spiederman Mind Explosion. That's Kyle Wally and Vincent."

"Spied."

"Spied." Darius nodded. "Anyway, they are going to be your opening act for the rest of the North America tour." Since when do girl's have bands? And what kind of music did they play anyway? They didn't look like any Pop act he had ever seen. Tommy wondered, as the boy named Spied put an arm around Jude's shoulders. "Don't make me have to look for another one." Darius said giving the Boyz Attack members each a serious look. He then proceeded to introduce them to the new members of the tour.

When everyone started to disperse Darius pulled Jude to one side.

"Did Georgia talk to you about the hair?" He asked, a little angry that his order had not been carried out right away. She looked mutinous, but finally nodded under his silent stare. "You're in the big time now Jude. This is a Pop tour. I need the fans to be able to identify with you, not some loner punk chick. I want to see your natural color back. Nadine will come find you later today." She nodded again still unhappy about being forced to do this. "Okay good. And remember don't get involved with the Boyz, especially not Quincy. It's more trouble than any of us need." Sadie had told Jude that Little Tommy Q had secretly eloped with Darius's sister Portia 5 months ago. She wondered if it was true. Sadie did have a knack of finding out all things Boyz Attack. But then why would he be hitting on her? Of course with his reputation, cheating on his new wife would have been typical.

"Yeah like I'm about to fall for some talentless boybander..." She said sarcastically. Tommy happened to be walking behind the curtain near them when she said those words. What was wrong with that little...?!

"Jude be nice. You have to work with these guys for the next few months." Darius warned.

"Just not too nice right?" She said mockingly and walked away to catch up with her band. Darius shook his head and had to smile.


The First Time

Jude watched the enormous crowd from the side of the stage. The boys next to her looked equally nervous. Breathe. She thought to herself. It's not that many people and they don't know who you are anyway. Wait is that a good thing? A voice invaded her private panic attack.

"It helps if you picture them naked." She looked up and glared at the blue eyed man speaking.

"That is one of the stupidest things I've ever heard." She was so busy sniping at him, she forgot her own fears. Wally snorted and Spied coughed to hide his laugh. He put his hands up and shook his head, disgust showing on his face as he turned to walk away. She took a deep breath as she was introduced and walked on to the stage with a glint of determination in her eyes.

The blond girl looked terrified as she obviously went through an internal battle. This was the big leagues after all. They didn't call them stadium tours for nothing. Tommy remembered his first one and he had probably felt as scared as she now looked. When she had shown up that day, he had had to do a double take. He had a weakness for blonds and she looked damn good as one. The red hair had been intriguing, but the tousled blond was plain hot. He wasn't the only one who noticed either, his fellow band members definitely had too. She was wearing tight faded ripped jeans with a silver chain belt, black leather heeled boots and a black button down vest. A guitar pick hung from a cord around her neck, dipping into the vee of that vest. On her finger was a silver star ring he had noticed earlier and a black braided leather bracelet was around her wrist. He was enjoying the view as he walked up to her to try and calm her nerves.

Jude and SME walked off the stage sweaty and exhilarated. They had done it and they hadn't screwed it up. The fans had clapped, just like they were Jude's and SME's own. Once she had gotten on that stage, her nerves were forgotten, she had owned it. She realized it didn't matter what the size of the crowd out there was. The stage was hers from the first chord on her guitar.
