Jude rolled over in her bed, not quite ready to wake up. She hit the snooze button for the third time and snuggled back into her pillow. She quickly drifted back to sleep, her red hair a mess. It wasn't until Sadie came barging in that she stirred.

"Wake up, loser!" Sadie stated loudly as she walked into the room with pajamas on. When she only heard Jude groan, Sadie stepped onto Jude's bed and started jumping. "You're gonna be late for school. You're just lucky that your wonderful sister woke up early enough to bother you to WAKE UP!"

"Sadie!" Jude groaned as she threw one of her pillows at her sister. "I'm exhausted…"

Catching the pillow, Sadie continued to bounce around. "Come on, Jude! If you don't wake up, you're gonna be late for school and it's gonna become a bad habit. Then you're going to fail out of school and spend so much time at G Major that Georgia and Darius are gonna get annoyed with you and fire your butt. Then you're gonna stop paying your half of rent, and we'll be sharing not this lovely apartment, but a cardboard box. Wake up!" Sadie bounced closer to the middle of the bed to shake Jude up some more.

Taking her other pillow into her hands, Jude sat up and started swinging at Sadie's legs. Her best chance at getting Sadie to stop jumping was if Sadie was off of her bed. She continued hitting her with her pillow as Sadie jumped. Quickly, Sadie started hitting back. The laughed as they kept swinging and bouncing on the bed.

"Hello?" Tommy knocked as he entered the room. He had a key to their apartment, but felt a little weird barging in whenever he wanted, especially with Jude around now. He turned the corner to find Jude's door open, as well as giggles. He peeked his head in and his jaw instantly dropped. "Holy Harrison fantasy…"

Both of the girls stopped as they saw and heard Tommy. They laughed together as they shot their pillows at Tommy, both hitting him hard. All three of them couldn't help but laugh at the moment. It was great how they could be friends and joke around. Things had definitely changed since the previous year.

Sadie took a minute to glare at him before hopping off of the bed and into his arms. "Good morning…" She kissed him softly.

Lingering in the beauty of the kiss, Tommy pulled away slowly and opened his eyes a minute later. "That's definitely the way to start the morning off." He smiled down at her and then glanced over at Jude. "Aren't you going to be late for school?"

Jude shot Tommy a dirty look as she threw her legs over the edge of the bed. She groaned and replied, "I'm on my way…" She yawned as she stumbled to her bathroom and slammed the door shut.

"Someone wake up on the wrong side of the bed?" Tommy questioned as he held Sadie.

Sadie exhaled deeply and shook her head. She took Tommy's hand and walked him into her room. "No, but someone did stay up late last night." She closed the door behind them and went straight towards her closet.

Sitting down on her bed, Tommy chuckled lightly. "Did I just move from one Harrison room to another?" He raised his eyebrows suggestively at Sadie when she turned to look at him.

"Why do I keep you around?" Sadie questioned as she glared at him. She turned her attention back to her closest and searched for something to wear.

Tommy went behind Sadie and wrapped his arms around her stomach. "Because…" He made a trail of kisses up and down her neck sweetly. "You love me." He kissed her cheek. "And I love you too." He tilted her head back and kissed her on the lips.

Sadie turned around in his arms and wrapped her arms around his neck. They pulled away to look each other in the eye and smiled at each other. "Oh yeah," Sadie remarked to Tommy's statement.

Brushing a few strands of stray hair out of Sadie's face, Tommy asked, "Didn't I tell you to be ready at 8:00?"

"I had to wake Jude up," Sadie stated in her defense. She turned back to her closet and grabbed a white flutter top as well as a ripped pair of jeans. "I'll be ready in a sec."

With a smirk on his face, Tommy sat back on the bed again. "And I'll be watching over here."

"Hey!" Sadie exclaimed as she threw her pajama top back at him. She faced away from him so all he could see was her bare back. Sadie pulled her other shirt on and then turned back to face him. She turned slightly to the side as she pulled off her shorts and put on her jeans. "I hope you enjoyed the show."

He shrugged as he went back up to her. "That was like bleeping out all the good stuff!" Tommy tugged at the bottom of her shirt and lifted it slightly. "Can you change again?"

Sadie giggled and pushed him back slightly. "You need to be tamed, Tom Quincy." She smiled at him with a twinkle in her eye and turned towards her vanity. "Let me introduce my face to some makeup and then we can hit the road."

Tommy looked at her with wide eyes. "Are you kidding me? You look beautiful, and I'm starving." He tried pleading with her through his eyes.

"Ten minutes, I promise!"

"Alright…" Tommy replied glumly. "Just hurry!"

He slipped out of Sadie's room and back to the living room. He sat down at the couch and glanced over at the stide table with various pictures of Sadie and Jude. He always enjoyed looking at their pictures, even if they were the same ones over and over again. He loved giving them stories or imagining what they were doing as those pictures were snapped. The Harrison girls were his favorites.

Jude stumbled out of her room, trying to pull her boots on as she walked. She almost fell, but caught herself on the wall and resumed putting her boots on. Jude glanced over at Tommy looking at a picture of her and Sadie at the park. "One of Sadie's infamous 'Stay a Kid Forever' days…" She nodded towards him and the picture as she went to the kitchen and grabbed a banana.

Placing the picture back from where he got it, Tommy stood and joined Jude in the kitchen. "That girl definitely knows how to make life interesting," he commented with a smile on his face.

Nodding, Jude took a bite of the banana, "So I take it she's made you play with her?"

With a raised eyebrow and devilish grin on his face, Tommy exhaled deeply. "And how should I answer that..?"

"Tommy!" Jude exclaimed with a shocked expression on her face. "I meant in the playground in a PG sense."

The both of them couldn't help but laugh. It was nice that they could be friends and joke around without so many complications. It wasn't long ago that they'd feel so much tension that it made it hard just being in the same room without some animosity underlying.

"I have played with Sadie in the park… We actually did a few times while you were gone. She missed you a lot." Tommy smiled at Jude. He watched her for a moment and then cleared his throat. "I missed you too."

A smile broke on Jude's face. She stared into his eyes and could tell he was completely sincere. "I missed you guys too. That was probably the hardest part about the tour."

Finishing her banana, Jude threw the peel away in the garbage can. She returned to Tommy and found Sadie skipping out of her room towards them. She laughed, thinking about her sister's quirks.

"Ready!" Sadie stated as she wrapped her arms around Tommy from behind.

Jude leaned back slightly and caught a glance at the time on the microwave. "Shoot," she stated in a low voice. "Late to school on the first day back…" She grabbed her backpack and started towards the door.

Sadie linked her arm with Tommy's and walked towards Jude. "Not if we give you a ride."

Nodding, Tommy smiled. "Just your luck, I drove the Hummer today."

"Good," Jude replied as the three of them went towards the door.

It was a new day and everything seemed to be great. They were off to a good start and nothing could interfere.
