A/N: I forgot to mention in the last chapter that my friend Katie gave me the idea for the title. Thanks Katie! Chapter 2
Tom Quincy in a relationship with rock star Carly Reese?
Tom Quincy was seen yesterday and many times before, driving from G-Major and to G-Major with his artist, Carly Reese. The 43 year old ex-Boyz Attacker……..
Tommy couldn't read anymore than that, so he crumpled the newspaper on his kitchen table and threw it on the floor.
Tommy just sat there drinking his coffee with a disgusted look on his face.
Emily came down the stairs for breakfast before going to G-Major with her dad.
She saw the disgusted look on his face.
"What wrong dad?" Emily asked.
"The media thinks I'm a pedophile. That's what's wrong. I still don't see how they can't look at you and me or you and your mom, and not see that you're our daughter" Tommy confessed.
See, Tommy and Jude told their daughter everything. No secrets. Well almost everything. Nothing about the intimacy of Tommy and Jude's relationship but, about everything else. Tommy and Jude believed that since they couldn't tell each other everything, they would tell their daughter everything that happens or happened if she asks.
So that also results in Tommy being more open to what happens with the media with Emily. Meaning before he and Jude were together and she wasn't 18 yet, he was so protective of his and her lives. He didn't tell the media anything about what kind of relationship they had. But now, he tells more to the media. He's definitely not as private as he was before.
"What, why?" Emily was confused and angry that anybody would think of her dad that way.
"Read that Em" Tommy pointed to the crumpled newspaper on the floor.
Emily picked it up, un-crumpled it and read it.
Emily crumpled it back up and threw it across the kitchen.
"That is just disgusting! How could they think that?" Emily looked for the answer in her dad.
"I don't know Em but I'll find some way to fix it. I have to talk to Jude first to make sure it's ok with her to do what I'm thinking" Tommy answered.
"What are you thinking dad?" Emily asked.
"Well I was thinking that, probably the media will be hounding our every move, that if they ask me what I have to say about our 'relationship', that I'll tell them that you are my daughter. I want to ask Jude about it because I don't want her angry with me about it and if the media asks who your mom is, I want to know if I can say it's her or not" Tommy replied.
"Wow dad. You have really thought this out. So how should we get to G-Major today?" Emily inquired.
"You can take the BMW and I'll take my Jaguar. Take the fast way to G-Major and I'll take the longer way. They won't be able to say something about us that way right now. Until I have the consent from your mom, or I think up a new plan, this is how it is going to be" Tommy told her.
"Got it"
They both got dressed and drove in their cars to G-Major.
(A/N: I know Tommy is really OC in this chapter. I will make him more normal I promise.)
Tommy got to G-Major ten minutes after Emily did.
He entered G-Major and walked into his office.
He sat down in his chair and picked up the phone.
He hesitated a bit before calling Jude. He hadn't called Jude in 6 years. He had only called before when Emily had been sick or Emily wanted to spend some more time with her.
He decided he better get it over with, so he called Jude.
It ringed four times before she picked it up.
(Jude in italics and Tommy in bold italics)
Hello?
Jude, it's me Tom.
Tom, what's wrong? Is it Emily?
Well it's all of us really.
What do you mean?
Did you happen to read the paper this morning?
No should I have?
Well I would suggest it. If not then I'll tell you.
I just got the paper. I'll read it hold on.
Ok.
……
Tom, you know what that sounds like?
I know Jude. It sounds like what we had. But Jude, they have gone too far. Don't you think?
I know they did. Tom, what do think you should do?
Well I was thinking, since the media will be on my back now and on Emily's, if they asked me about this whole thing, I was wanting to tell them that I'm Emily's dad. But I wanted to ask you, if they ask who Emily's mom is; I was wondering if I could tell them that her mom is you. I didn't want you to get angry with me about it if I told them. So what do you think?
Wow Tom, I think this is the first thing you've thought the most about.
Hey! I've thought out something much more than this.
Oh really? What would that be?
Um……when I asked you to marry me.
Oh……
Yeah well, do you think I should do it or not?
I'm ok with it. Just, Tom…
Yeah?
Don't wait another six years before talking to me again. I really do miss talking to you.
I miss talking to you too Jude. You better not wait another six years either.
I won't.
And Jude…
Yeah?
I'm sorry for all that's happened. I never really said that to you. I didn't want it to end that way.
I'm sorry too. I didn't want it to end that way either, but you know, we couldn't deal with it. It's better this way.
Yeah I know, you're right, absolutely right. Well I have to go. I guess I'll talk to you when I can.
Oh, ok. Bye Tom.
Bye Jude.
