Hey everybody so yeah, you didn't have to wait a week to get another update!!!! Only because I HATED the end of this weeks episode. I mean, truly hated it. Jude would never have walked away from Tommy after the whole Hunter thing. I actually yelled at my TV and yeah, made the people I live with laugh. :) So I added a little more to the ending and ended it my way. Enjoy!!!

"I can't believe that guy attacked you," Jamie said guiding her down the sidewalk. He had one arm wrapped around her shoulders shielding her from the people staring at her. "He wasn't with the animal rights activists was he?"

Jude shook her head but she was barely listening to him. She couldn't get the last words Tommy had said to her out of her head. "No I haven't." What did he mean he hadn't told her the truth of what happened to Angie? There was more to the Angie story. What else could there be?

"Jude are you okay?" Jamie asked realizing she wasn't even listening to him.

"No," she said softly shaking her head. She stopped in the middle of the sidewalk and looked up at him. She couldn't just walk away from Tommy without talking about what just happened. She'd been assaulted by one of his old friends and he'd been forced to tell her something that he hadn't wanted to. They needed to talk about it, or she at least needed to. "I gotta talk to him."

"Jude no," Jamie said shaking his head. This happened every time Jude spent any alone time with Tommy. She'd forget everything he put her through and fall under his spell again, until the next time

"I have to talk to him," Jude insisted back away. She shook her head sadly when Jamie looked at her in disappointment. "I have to Jamie." She turned around and hurried back towards the rehearsal space.

She walked up behind Tommy who was talking to the officer who was writing down everything he was saying. She waited until he finished explaining what had happened and shuddered as she remembered the look on Tommy's face as Hunter held the knife to her throat.

"Miss?" the officer said breaking into her thoughts. "Can you tell me what happened before Mr. Quincy arrived?"

Jude opened her mouth but nothing came out. She closed her eyes, took a deep breath and tried again. "I received a bouquet of flowers that I thought was from Tommy," she said softly pulling the card out of her back pocket. She handed it to the officer as she continued. "I went to the rehearsal space expecting to see Tommy but was confused when I saw Hunter instead. I felt like something was off from the moment he started talking. He said something about revenge and his sister but I was trying to just get away. I kicked him a couple times and almost made it out the door but he grabbed me from behind and pulled out the knife." Jude looked at Tommy from the corner of her eye and saw him clenching his teeth. "He uh…didn't talk much after he had me sit in the chair and I didn't know what he had planned until Tommy walked into the room. Then it all made sense."

"I'm going to need you two to come down to the station to sign the report," the officer said before he walked back to the patrol car that held Hunter.

Jude didn't say anything until after the car had pulled away and Tommy had turned to look at her. "Tommy, I don't understand."

"I am so sorry Jude," Tommy said his voice cracking. "I never thought this would happen."

"Did you know Hunter wanted to hurt you?" Jude asked softly staring into his eyes. She took a step back when Tommy didn't deny it. "You knew that he wanted revenge for Angie and didn't tell me."

"I wanted to tell you…so many times," Tommy said stepping towards her but she backed away. "I didn't know how to tell you and then I thought I took care of it. I gave him the one thing that I thought would get him out of town."

"He threatened my life Tommy," Jude said tears running down her face. "He was going to kill me and I had no idea why. You should have told me."

"I know," Tommy said surprising her. He had tears running down his face now too. "I was going to tell you..today in fact when I read the note that I thought was from you. I decided that Hunter was too big of a risk and I couldn't keep you in the dark anymore."

"You're an idiot," Jude said shaking her head. "My heart stopped when you tried to attack him. He had a knife Tommy! A freaking knife."

"I couldn't let him hurt you," Tommy said shrugging his shoulders.

"How do you think I would have felt if you'd been hurt?" Jude yelled holding a hand to her chest. "To know you got hurt protecting me."

"It's my fault he threatened you in the first place!" Tommy yelled back.

Jude started crying even harder and took the first step towards Tommy but he pulled her into his arms. She heard him whispering in her ear but she could barely hear him. She felt him rubbing his hand up and down her back and the chaste kisses he gave on her head. She was still angry, and hurt but she needed the comfort that only he could bring. They'd been through something that she'd never imagined going through in her lifetime.

Minutes had gone by before Jude pulled back and wiped her eyes. She looked up at Tommy and asked, "What's the real story Tommy?" When he looked confused she sighed. "With Angie, you said I didn't know the real story."

"Jude…" Jamie said from behind them. He didn't look directly at them. He hated seeing Tommy's arms around Jude and couldn't fathom why she was letting him touch her after the ordeal she'd just gone through. "Your Dad just called, he wants you home now."

Jude nodded her head but she stared into Tommy's eyes. She wasn't ready to go. She didn't want to leave the shelter of Tommy's arms. She wanted the whole story about Angie and she wanted to start letting go of the hurt and anger she still felt towards him. But her dad wasn't Tommy's biggest fan, especially after her birthday party so she slowly turned around and walked away.
