Chapter 4

Jude goes upstairs and knocks on Sadie's door.

"What?!" screamed Sadie.

"Sadie, I know I'm not the #1 person you want to hear from right now but we need to talk so just open the door," said Jude.

Sadie opens the door.

"Make it quick, I'm trying to get my beauty sleep," said Sadie.

"What was up with you and Jamie at dinner earlier?" asked Jude, in a rush.

"Nothing. Don't look at me like that Jude, I only date up!" said Sadie.

"Jamie is my best friend. You are my sister. Don't you understand how the two of you dating will complicate things?" asked Jude.

"There you go again, being selfish. I can date whoever I want to, even if it's Jamie. It's not like you two have been together, or ever will, for that matter," said Sadie.

Jude gives her a dirty look.

"What? Don't look at me like that—you get to have the fame, the free time from school, and a hot producer, and I'm not allowed any fun?" asked Sadie, rolling her eyes.

"Don't play the 'Jude you're such a diva' card on me. Are you really dating Jamie?" asked Jude, with a hurt look in her eyes.

"No! What don't you get? Jamie and I are barely friends, or acquaintances, for that matter. We're not dating, and chances are, we never will. I don't go for nerds who know way too much about music than they really need to. You can have him to yourself, because he's just not 'man' enough for me—

Sadie pauses when she realizes that Jamie was standing in the doorway behind Jude.

"Jamie! What are you doing here? Dinner was over like an hour ago," asked Sadie, bewildered.

"I just came by to apologize for leaving so abruptly, but I guess it was the right thing for me to do. No one wants an unmanly music nerd around," said Jamie, with a hurt look in his eyes.

"Jamie, look, I can explain!" screamed Sadie.

Jamie turned away and left her room.

"Wow Sadie, smooth. I'm selfish, and you're cruel," said Jude. "I'm going to go check on him, make sure he's okay. Because he's more than just some music nerd. That's my best friend forever," said Jude.

Jude leaves the room as well. Sadie plops down on her bed and sighs.

How could I have been so stupid? Oh Jamie probably hates me now, thought Sadie.
