CHAPTER EIGHT

Its been two weeks since she herd him sing that heartbreaking song to her. Tommy and her have been a little distant which is understandable, they still talk but they keep it PG. Jude kept dropping the word FRIENDS a lot, which broke both of there hearts and they both knew it. But being friends right now was for the best. Jude got home from work at five and dropped her bag on the couch, she strolled over to the answering machine and clicked her messages. 3 NEW MESSAGES, MESSAGE ONE: Hey honey, Its mom, just wondering how your doing. Call me it seems like we never talk anymore. MESSAGE TWO: Hey Jude, Kat here just calling to tell you I'm coming home today, and bringing Kwest and Tommy. Tommy told me that he wanted to play you a few of his new songs, so you should come over. Call me. MESSAGE THREE: Hey Girl, you know who this is, anyways I'm coming up with Kat today, hopefully we can talk…I've got some music to play for you. Well hopefully I'll see you today.

Jude hit her head on the wall next to her and muttered out loud, "My GOD what am I going to do now." Jude decided to go into the bathroom and take a shower before calling Kat. She still smelt like the nursing home. She was mid way into her shower when the doorbell rang. She got out grabbed a fluffy white tail and draped it across herself and headed over to the door to answer it. She groaned inwardly when she saw that it was Tommy. She opened up her door and stuck her head out and said, "Hey you, where is everyone else?"

"Oh there at the house, Kat let me borrow her car."

"Oh how nice of Kat did she know you where coming over here?"

"Yeah she was going to come over but got busy so I offered to come and over and drag you to her place, am I allowed to come in or not?"

Jude frowned a little then said, "Sure," He tried his hardest to keep his eye's in there sockets when he saw her in a little white tail. He moved past her smelling Vanilla and peaches. He smiled and said, "Sorry, I should have called, anyways how was your day?"

"It was okay but I think I better go change and then we should head over." Tommy only grunted as he sat down on the couch while watching her walk past him and into a room down the hall. Loving the way her tale hiked up as she walked long paces towards her room.

Jude emerged five minutes later dressed in tight blue jeans and a long sleeve white shirt, that plunged into a v-neck. Her hair was still wet, she sat down next to Tommy on the couch and said, "I'm sorry I haven't been returning your calls lately, I've been really busy."

"Its okay, Jude can I be totally honest with you."

"Can I be totally honest with you by saying no you shouldn't." Tommy smiled at her, shook his head then said, "We should go."

"Okay," She grabbed her jacket and purse before following him out the front door.

I cant believe that she wants to ignore what we feel for each other, I guess she's trying to do the best thing, but how can she ignore this, if she even feels the fraction what I feel there isn't a way that she would ignore me. His cell phone went off he looked at it and thought, great Cindy, wait maybe she can help with the Jude problem.

"Hey Cindy… Oh, I'm not in town right now… I will be tomorrow night if you want to go and do something… yeah that sounds good, you know scary movies always give you an excuse for closeness." He couldn't believe what he just said but it looked like it was working, he could tell Jude's teeth where clenched. "Okay I'll see you tomorrow night. Bye."

They didn't talk for the rest of the way and Jude didn't even wait for him to park the car before she hopped out and headed for the front door. Tommy could tell that she was pissed but maybe now she would realize that if she wasn't going to accept him he was 'going' to move on. Maybe she will be forced now to accept the fact that they where it even if he wasn't like everyone else.

AN:/// WAY more to come I just felt I needed to post something…hope you all are enjoying my story so far…I wonder if tommy will go through with his date!
