Chapter Four
"Nobody Said It'd Be Easy"

Jude woke up in 620, laying in Spiederman's arms.

Her eyes flickered open, & she looked at him.

Spiederman was awake, softly playing with Jude's hair, while Jude layed in his arms.

"Goodmorning beautiful" He whispered to her, smiling. Jude smiled back.

Jude layed her head on Spiederman's chest, and began to think.

"How could i leave him?" Jude thought "I mean.. he's the greatest guy in the entire world. I could be with him forever.. He's amazing. But then again.. there's Tommy. He's the guy who pulls me through, whenever I'm slipping away. He's the guy that showed me that when things are bad, you just got to strum all the feelings away.. I love him.."

Jude was in her room, that night.

She decided that she needed to talk to Tommy

She texted him saying..

"Tommy.. you know the old beat up apartments down the block from G-Major?"

"Yeah, why?"

"Go there, and go to apartment 620.. I'll be in there.."

15 minutes later..

Jude was sitting in 620, alone, when there was a knock on the door.

"Come in." She called out.

Suddenly, Tommy Quincy came through the doors.

He closed the door behind him, and walked towards Jude.

He sat next to her, on the couch.

"What was so urgent, that you had to meet me here?"

"I need to figure out my life.. I need to make a choice.. I need.. your help." She admitted.

"What do you want, Jude? Like- Honest to God.. what do you want?" He asked "You have two choices.. two life changing choices.. You either come back to New York, with me and live with your family.. Or.. you stay here, with Spiederman and your band, living with Mason."

"I don't know.. All I know is that I love Spiederman.." A silence took over the room.. "The confusing part is.. I can't get you off my mind.." She admitted. "No matter where I am, what I'm doing, or who I'm with.. your name pops up into my head.. I don't know if I can be apart from you.. I don't know if I can live with out you.. I love you Tommy, and it scares me.. It really scares me." Jude poured all her feelings out to him.

"New York is where you belong.."

"I don't want to talk about that right now.."

"Well then what do you want to do?"

"Fall asleep in your arms." She answered.

"Best idea you've had yet." He replied, smirking.

The two then layed on the couch together, Jude laying in Tommy's arms.

The next day- 11 AM.

Spiederman, Wally and Kyle were going to 620, just to hangout.

"Hows the girlfriend?" Kyle asked.

"She's amazing.. I love her." Spied answered. "Even though her ex boyfriend Tommy is trying to make her come back to New York with him.. She won't go though. I am almost positive that she loves me enough to stay here. I can feel it."

They walked in to 620 and saw Tommy and Jude laying together. Jude was laying on top of Tommy.

They had a blanket on them, and Tommy was holding her tightly.

Spiederman's jaw dropped.

Kyle closed the door so that the two would wake up.

Suddenly Jude and Tommy woke up, they looked at each other and smiled, not noticing Spiederman standing right there.

"What a BEAUTIFUL sight.." Spiederman spoke out.

Jude and Tommy's eyes immediately turned to look at Spied.

"Spiederman!" Jude screamed, immediately jumping off of Tommy and standing up.

"I can't believe that you would do this! I thought you loved me!" He screamed at the top of his lungs

"Spied- I love you- SO MUCH, please just calm down!" She begged.

"No Jude! Don't fucking tell me what to do! How the hell would you feel if you walked in here and saw Monika laying on top of me? Yeah, it would fucking suck, wouldn't it? But no- you don't care. You never cared. I put my heart in your hands, and trusted you, but your fucking me over. You probably banged Tommy last night."

"No- nothing happened!"

"Jude- you told me you couldn't get me off your mind" Tommy interrupted the fight.

Spiederman's jaw dropped even more, as his eyebrows raised.

Jude looked back at Tommy.

"Get out of it Tommy!" She yelled.

"No Jude- let Tommy talk! He's the only one telling the truth here!" Spiederman yelled. "You never loved me."

"Spiederman.. I said stupid, pointless stuff last night. Things that I was wrong for saying.. But there's no way you could ever say that I don't love you. I love you Spiederman, I want to be with you. Don't let one stupid night ruin everything."

"Jude.. you made a choice last night.. you made the choice of spilling all these feelings out to your ex-boyfriend, whos still in love with you. You made the choice to forget about your current boyfriend.. so how about you continue with the choice you made." Spiederman paused "You should continue to have feelings for Tommy, and you should continue to forget about me.. It shouldn't be that hard."

Spiederman stormed out.

Jude stood there, in disbelief.

The next day..

Jude was home, alone, when the doorbell rang.

Jude was praying for Spiederman to be the one standing there.

But there stood Kyle and Wally.

"Where's Spied? How is he?" Jude immediately asked.

"He's uhm.. He's fine." Kyle answered. "But we're here to talk about some thing else."

"What else would you guys even want to talk about?" Jude asked.

"The band." Wally answered.

"You guys, I'm begging- please don't kick me out of it."

"No.. we're not kicking you out.. but there's a few new rules." Kyle told her. "Don't talk to Spiederman, look at Spiederman, or go by him while your singing. He wants nothing to do with you, and we had to beg him to let you stay. Don't even make eye contact with him.. alright?"

Jude let out a deep breath, the few new additional rules had broken her heart.

"Of course.." She answered.

Band Practice.

Jude walked in to 620- no one was there..

besides Spiederman..

"Great." Spiederman murmured under his breath, once he noticed Jude was the one who walked in.

"Alright.. Listen- I heard all the new rules, and I understand why you made them.. but if we're not going to date.. I want to at least be friends. It'd be best for the band." Jude pleaded.

"Yeah.. friends.. Good idea." He sarcastically replied.

Kyle and Wally walked in, and felt awkward once they noticed the two were alone.

"Let's start practice!" Kyle stated, breaking the awkward silence.

After the first few songs..

"Let's try Anyone But You." Jude suggested.

"Not a chance in Hell.." Spiederman quickly replied.

"Why not? It's an amazing song, we all said so three days ago." Jude responded

"Yeah, we all said that BEFORE we broke up.. that songs about our relationship, dude.. I think it's a little inappropriate to be singing it, in the same room, that you cheated on me in." Spiederman rudely reminded her.

"Alright.. First off- I never cheated. Second off- Whether or not we're together or broken up; the song still rocks.. There's no point to throw it in the garbage because of some nerdy band boy getting his panties in a bunch over one night of his girlfriend SLEEPING." Jude snapped back.

"Nerdy band boy? Mmm, taking notes from Tommy? No surprise. You probably write down every single last word he says in your pathetic teenage diary. I wonder if your diary includes how much of a stuck up bitch you are."

"Alright you guys, thats enough!" Wally spoke up. "We're a BAND- bands stick together through the thick and thin.. Let's just put this all behind us and start over."

"No- fuck this, it's over.. This band? is OVER" Jude yelled, she then knocked over the microphone stand and stormed out.

Kyle and Wally immediately gave Spiederman mad looks.

"What?" Spiederman spoke up, once he noticed their facial expressions.

"She's an amazing singer Spied.. Your fucking us over on this one and it's not cool." Kyle told him.

"Go after her." Wally demanded.

"No! She broke my heart. Stop trying to force me to fix this situation, if any one's going to fix it.. It should be her." Spiederman stated.

"Spied.. Listen to me." Kyle began "If you don't go after her.. She's going to go back to New York." Kyle paused. "She's going to go with Tommy back to New York.. don't you understand what that means?"

Spiederman stood there for a minute- taking in what Kyle had reminded him.

He suddenly ran out- in search for Jude.

He ran down the hall and looked down the hall to his left..

He saw Jude in an elevator- about to press one of the floors.

"JUDE! WAIT!"

He sprinted to the elevator, and entered it.

"Spiederman, get out." She demanded.

"No Jude."

"Why not?"

"I want to spend every moment possible with you, I don't want to lose you." He told her. "I know that if I let you go.. you'll go to New York, with Tommy. I just can't let that happen. You need to stay here, with me."

"I don't know, Spiederman. This fight made me realize that you have trust issues.. they may be issues that I can't deal with."

"Jude, I don't have trust issues- I was just... I don't know. Just.. please stay."

"I'm going to meet Tommy, at the coffee shop right now. I don't know what to tell you.. I think I'm going to discuss our past relationship and if it can be fixed." Jude gave him the bad news.

"Tommy's a sucky guy, Jude! You know that."

"I also know that I've only known you for like 3 weeks.. How am I supposed to pick a 3 week relationship- over a 3 year one."

"This is how your supposed to" Spiederman said, right before he grabbed Jude and intensly kissed her.

At first, Jude didn't kiss back- but soon enough, she began kissing back.
