Heyyy!

I know it's been a while but so much has been going on lately, with my my Welsh Coursework & Mock Exams & Maths Exams & Blood Brothers trip yesterday. I got another Maths exam Wednesday so i'm updating today because I probably won't in the next couple of weeks again. So this is short, and I don't know if you'll like it but I like finished it half an hour ago, so bare with me. =]

I don't own anything from Instant Star.


"Stay with me." Her eyes went wide, absorbing his words, 'Stay with me.'

That meant… oh my god. "What?" she barely whispered out through shock, he was basically asking her to move in with him. "Move in with me." She literally was gob smacked and she couldn't comprehend anything that she was thinking at that very moment. "I-"she tried to speak, but nothing came out, she heard him sigh, and she could feel him looking at her, "Jude, don't take it the wrong way-"

"What way is there to take it?" she interrupted him, looking back at him "You just asked me to move in with you, kind of freaking out here."

"Why? Is it that scary?"

"Yeah."

"Moving in with someone? Or moving in with me?" he asked bitterness leaking out, "We were barely together, and that didn't even last long, I don't even know if were together now, you want to make it worse by moving in together? Way to take a huge step."

"Fine. Just forget I said anything."

"Fine." She agreed, regretting saying that, but what was he expecting? Her to say yes, they'd live happily ever after, please, like that ever happens, especially with them.

"Can you just take me home?" she asked after a couple of deathly silence minutes passed.

"Yeah," he replied with no emotion, she just felt like she crashed his precious car, did he really want her to move in with him? He got up and walked over to the car without waiting for her or giving her a hand to help her up, she sighed and got up herself following him and getting into the passengers seat, this was going to be the longest thirty minutes of her life.


The car came to a stop at the Harrison's' house, Jude was right, the ride was silent and awkward, no talking, no music, just the sound of the blowing wind and the other cars on the road. She stayed in the car, wanting to sort this out between them, she wanted to leave the car though because she couldn't stand the vibe radiating of him, but she couldn't get out either.

"Say something." She whispered out, just to break the silence

"What do you want me to say Jude?" she just looked down at the seat "Damn it Jude" he shouted while hitting the steering wheel, making her jump, she wasn't going to stay in here with him, not when he was like this, she was scared of him. She grabbed her bags and opened the door slamming it behind her. She knew he wouldn't go after he this time, she'd made him mad, she knew that. She saw the house door open revealing Sadie; she must have heard the car door slamming. "Hey, is something wrong?" Sadie asked, looking over at Tommy in the car, "Nope, everything is fine, why wouldn't it be?" she replied plastering a fake smile on her face so she wouldn't ask it, she knew Sadie could see through it, but hopefully she would just leave it. Luckily she did. "Anyway-" Jude started walking through the door not looking back to see Tommy drive away, "Congratulations. I guess celebrations are in order."

"I don't really have time. Gotta finish packing, how about tomorrow?" she asked "So you're really moving in with him tonight?"

"Yeah, you're okay with that aren't you?"

"Yeah" she replied, anything but okay with it, "It's not like anything will change Jude, I was basically staying over his already, minus have my closet."

"Well shout when you're going. I got to unpack." She said, dragging her bags upstairs to her room, she didn't really feel unpacking but, she gathered it'll be better than doing nothing and obsessing over what Tommy said.


Around an hour later she had finally finished putting everything away, collapsing on her bed she heard her phone ringing next to her, she answered not looking at the ID "Hello?"

"Harrison, you better have a no choice explanation for leaving me with Darius, because he dragged me into the finale of Instant Star this year than you." That was the least on her mind right now, the Instant Star Contest, god she didn't even know who was on there this year, being on tour she lost track of everything.

"Sorry Speed." She spoke into the phone, not really sorry that he got dragged into the show than her this year, but sorry she left him there "So what's the explanation?"

"I got lost?" she replied innocently, "Jude."

"Okay, okay, I went outside for some air, you know who followed me and I just bailed, forgive me?"

"Yeah I guess… But if Tanner wins, you're gonna co-write his first song, not me."

"Who's Tanner?"

"The one who's tipped to win, haven't you read the paper, or even turned on the radio, this dude has been all over it. I can already tell he's gonna be a pain in my ass." He replied not at all euphoric.

"Okay, well I owe you one Speed."

"The hell you do." He replied, she could feel the smile he was trying to hold.

"See ya later Speed."

"Yeah, later Harrison." She sighed and closed the phone; she closed her eyes thinking about Tommy, she didn't know what to do. She heard her phone ringing again.

"If it's you again Speed, I swear-"

"Hey" her breath caught in her throat, Tommy. She sighed into the phone, "So is this the part where we laugh about it later?" she asked, no reply "Can we talk?"

"Were talking." She replied knowing where he was heading "Face to face?"

"Yeah, sure, whatever."

"Look outside." She walked over to her bedroom window looking outside like he told her, and she saw him, leaning against his viper looking up at her, she closed the phone and moved away from the window.

She walked out of her room and down the stairs stopping at the door, taking a deep breath and opening it, watching Tommy make his way to her, "So you wanted to talk?" she asked when they were face to face, he nodded. She opened the door wider moving aside, inviting him in, "what about Sadie?"

"She's gone back to Kwest's, all finished packing." He noticed the slight alteration in her voice, "But hey, upside, house to myself." Silence. She decided to break it "I'm scared." He looked at her; she looked back at him and noticed his confused expression "I'm scared of us…"

"Why?"

"Because if we moved in together and it don't work out…" she looked away from him then back at him "I can't lose anyone else Tommy, I already feel like I'm losing Sadie." He got up and sat down by her, "You're not going to lose me Jude, never. Whatever happens, were always going to be in each others lives." She knew he meant it, by the look he was giving her, she made up her mind.

"Okay then, maybe we should."

"So you're saying…" he asked, making sure she was saying what he thought she was "we should move in together." She smiled watching his face light up when she said it, he really did love her, and it might just be good for them after all.


"So when do you wanna move in?"

"A couple of days or so, need to pack, god I just finished un-packing… This feels weird."

"What does?"

"Us. Moving in together, it just seems fast."

"It's been years." He stated what they both felt, they'd been in love with eachother for years, but couldn't do anything about it and now they are, in a period of a couple of months. Half an hour went by, Jude leaning into Tommy on the sofa, talking about the tour and what happened when Tommy went home. "So what are you gonna tell Sadie?" he asked, breaking the comfortable silence.

"I don't know what to tell her, the past couple of years, we've grown close, more than I ever thought me and Sadie could, it's just going to be weird not living together, not living in this house. I'm twenty and I never thought my life would be like this. But right now, there's nowhere else I'd rather be." She felt him take her hand and entwine it with his. She smiled, loving the feel of him, she was ready for this, ready for them, they were taking a huge risk, but it'd be a good one. What was she going to say to Sadie "I'm moving in with my-older than me producer-love of my life-which happens to be your ex-boyfriend-who you are now engaged to his best friend." That would be a mouthful. She'd think of something, tomorrow. Right now she had something else in mind.

She sat up and got of the sofa standing in front of him, pulling him up off the sofa, and leading him upstairs to her room, and shutting the door behind them.


So okay, tell me what you think.

I won't be updating for a couple of weeks, but if I have time i'll try and get on here. =] Oh and, I am trying to make the chapters longer, but right now i'm just doing what I can.

Please Review.
