Heyyy! thanks to who reviewed highly appreciate it. So this was kind of rushed, I wanted to get it up today because I've got a Welsh Exam now starting next week, so really need to study.
Hope you like it, I didn't know really what to write since it's kind of a filler chapter. I don't own anything from Instant Star.
Congratulations & Stay
Couldn't stay away huh?
She turned around and instantly relaxed at the person in front of him, "Apparently neither could you." She answered him back
"What are you doing here Speed?"
"About to ask you the same question." They both laughed at eachother
"We have a couple of days of, and the first day we end back here." She stated.
"This is home." Speed stated back. "Yeah."
"Hey, you coming?" he asked a couple minutes later, extending his arm out to her, so they could walk in together. She nodded and grabbed hold of his hand, and they both walked into G Major talking about the tour.
As soon as she got through the doors she started looking around, remembering everything that's happened in here since she started out, it's been one hell of a ride. She was looking for Tommy as well, but again couldn't see him; people were running around getting to where they had to be.
Darius walked out and greeted "What're you two doing here? Didn't I give you time off?" he asked them "Yeah, I guess we just couldn't stay away that long." Jude answered for the both of them. "Well, while you are here, come in on this meeting. In five minutes." They nodded "Man, we got sucked into a meeting, jolly. Remind me why I come in here in the first place?" he asked her after Darius left, "because its home. Your words not mine" she smiled "Now come on, I wanna get something in Studio A before the meeting."
"Okay." He replied unenthusiastic. They both walked into Studio A, Jude went straight to the sound board and searched for a letter under it, where she thought it might be. She found out Tom had a tendency to leave things important under there, private things, so no one else could read whatever was under there. She was hoping the letter was there, and it was. "What's that?" Speed asked her wondering what the hell she was doing, "Nothing, just a letter."
She wasn't completely lying, it just wasn't a letter it was the letter, and she wanted to see if he wrote anything on there for her, a message to let her know where he was or if he finished the song.
"Come on, were late for the meeting." She said, grabbing Speeds arm and dragging him out of Studio A "Do we have to go?" she just laughed at his child like whining.
They both walked into the meeting room, only a couple of minutes late, and Darius must have been in a good mood because he didn't even say anything when they walked in, and they both sat down in two of the only three chairs left.
The door opened again, but Jude didn't bother looking up, thinking it was no one she exactly knew "Glad you could make it T" Déja Vu.
Darius voice echoed over and over in her head 'T' that meant… she looked up and she was right, Tommy as here, walking over to her, the only seat left, god, why did she have to come in today?
She walked out of the meeting as quick as she could when it was finished, it wasn't anything really important, just about the tour and the sales and everything, but Jude just blanked everything out as soon as Tommy walked through that door, and entered into her life, for the third time. Again, she couldn't breathe when she saw him, but for a totally different reason, the anticipation of talking to him, what the hell was going on between them?
She could feel Tommy brush up against her then walk in front of her view into Studio A, she could feel the heat and was afraid of how deep she'd go until she got burned. She walked outside to the alleyway suddenly feeling very warm.
She stayed out in the alleyway for at least half an hour, she didn't know how long, but she was thinking about what she was going to say to him, so she wouldn't freak out and get everything she needed to say out. She turned around at the sound of the side alley door opening coming face to face she was thinking about. "Thought you'd be out here." And as soon as she heard him her plan went straight out the window, he was giving her the look, and she could feel his blue eyes gazing on her, she couldn't do this right now.
"I uh, got to go, pick up my stuff, so uh, bye." She nervously answered the invisible question, she turned away from him and started walking out of the alley to the road and heard Tommy's voice echo after her "Jude."
She stopped and turned around to look at him "Yeah?" she shouted back, trying not to look like she was leaving because he was there, which she technically was, "Welcome Back." She smiled and carried on walking, couldn't he have said that yesterday?
She made her way over to Kwest's, he only lived around ten minutes away from G Major, so it wasn't much of a walk, she wasn't planning on getting her stuff yet, but she knew Sadie would be here, and she needed to talk to her, so she might as well just get them now. When she got there the door was unlocked, so she walked in and everything was way to quiet, then she giggling from the kitchen
"Okay, things are so not PG 13 here" she whispered to herself so they wouldn't hear her, that'd be way too embarrassing.. She noticed her bags in the corner of the room, so just quickly grabbed them and quietly walked out closing the door behind her.
She was walking down the street five minutes after she left Kwest's house and she jumped at the car horn that just beeped at her, what the hell?
"Scare me to death why don't you?" she said turning around shocked to see the Blue Viper, "Are you following me now?" she voiced out, she didn't mean to say that. He didn't answer that question, "How'd you know I was here?"
"Phoned Sadie." Ah, so he does speak. "Thought you'd might need a ride instead of carry that." He said pointing to her bags.
"Don't need a ride; I'm okay, so uh, you can go now."
"C'mon Jude. Don't be like this." She didn't even bother retorting back, she gave in because to be honest, she would rather have a ride instead of carrying her bags all the way home, so she got in.
A Couple of minutes into the drive she knew they were going the wrong way. "Hey- this is not the way back."
"Yeah, I know, I want to take you somewhere." He answered back, not taking his eyes of off the road.
"That was not apart of the deal." He looked at her and smiled "There wasn't a deal."
Thirty minutes into the ride and they finally got to where Tommy wanted to take her, and she remembered everything instantly like it was yesterday, the first time he took her here four years ago. It was simply breathtaking. She didn't know what to say.
"You remember?" his voice broke her out of the memory, she got out of the car and looked at him "How could I forget?" she asked rhetorically watching him get out of his side, she could never forget that day, when she fell in love with him, which was stupid because she barely knew him back then, the place where he took her to rewrite 24 Hours.
"Why'd you bring me here?" she asked, him walking over and sitting down. He walked over following suite and sitting down next to her "To talk." She sighed, here we go. "There's nothing to talk about."
"Jude-"
"Stop." She interrupted "Stop saying my name like that." A couple of minutes of silence dragged passed "What did you want to talk about?" she knew what he wanted to talk about, and she couldn't stand the silence. "So, what happened between us before I left was it just because I was going to leave or something else?"
she sighed and turned herself around so she was facing him. "I'm not gonna lie and say it wasn't because you were leaving, but that's what made me make up my mind. You were leaving, we both didn't know what the hell was going to happen when I came back, I just wanted something we both could hold onto, I guess." She smiled lightly, and before Tommy had the chance to say anything back, she heard her phone ringing in her bag she left in the car, so she got up and ran to answer it in time, "Hello?" she asked, answering the phone, looking back over to where Tommy sat on the grass. "Hey, it's me"
Sadie.
"I came home to tell you some news, but you're not here, where are you?" she asked, Jude could tell she was worried by the tone in her voice. "Somewhere, anyway, what's the news?"
"Kwest just proposed."
"Oh. My. God. Are you serious?" she asked, excited for her sister "Yeah, just now." She could feel her sister smile through the phone "I'm so happy for you Sades."
"Thanks, I'm going to pack most of my stuff up today and take them over Kwest's, I'll pick up the rest tomorrow, it'll be official, living with him engaged." Jude could literally see her sisters beaming smile, like she was face to face with her, they knew eachother so well. "Well I got to go, I'll see you later?"
"Yeah, Sade's, see you later. Tell Kwest congratulations from me."
"Will do. Bye." And she heard the dial tone before she could say goodbye.
Jude was happy for her, but it just meant that it was final, she was living alone, and she couldn't stand it, yeah Sadie spent most of the time at Kwest's, but most of her clothes and stuff was at home, the presence of her was there, now everything would be gone. She walked back over to where Tommy was and sat back down in her spot. "What's happened?" he asked, immediately noticing the change in her demeanour "Sadie and Kwest…are engaged."
"And that's a bad thing?" he asked, noticing the unenthusiastic in he voice.
"No, no. It's not, I'm really happy for them."
"But?" he asked, looking straight at her seeing the flash of sadness shine in her eyes, then went just as fast as it come.
"She's at home packing her stuff right now, she's moving in with him, and I have to-"
"Live in the house on your own." He said finishing the sentence for her, he understood that, being in a place that was once full of people and then they're just gone, and you're suddenly on your own.
"I just don't think I'm ready for that." She sighed and ran her hands through her hair "I've lived with her for basically nineteen years, it's just going to be strange staying in the house without her there, you know?" she closed her eyes and breathed in the fresh air, breathing in Tommy scent at the same time, and she just felt safe, there with him. She could feel him staring at her; she opened her eyes and looked back at him, smiling "What?"
"How about you don't?" she looked at him confused,
"Stay with me."
