Recording of Time To Be Your 21

Tommy cocked his head as he saw Kwest in his studio. He peeked his head in and heard Jude.

You never lied to me not once

It's not your fault that I can't trust

It's in my past, it's in my path and I can't go there

"She's recording?"

Kwest glanced up surprised. "Yeah, said she had a new song."

Making a mess out of this game

"No one bothered to tell her producer?"

To see it all go up in flames

He shrugged his shoulders. "She said you knew about it."

"I didn't." Tommy sat down in the corner of the studio, intentionally keeping out of Jude's sight. He wanted to know why she lied.

So tired of being ruthless and reckless

"She just started, man."

Tommy nodded, content to just listen.

Time to be your only one

To almost be you're way too young

This was the song she was writing for Shay. Why was she recording this? And why was she doing it behind his back?

Time to crash into the sun

Time to be your 21

Kwest paused before glancing at Tommy who met his shocked eyes. "You don't think…"

"She couldn't have."

Time to dream that love will last

Time to drive my car too fast

"You sure, man?"

Tommy sighed as he rested his head in his hands. "I don't know. I didn't see her."

Time to walk before I run

Time to be

Ohh time to be your 21

Kwest looked to Jude who had her eyes closed as she sang. "Maybe it's not related."

"Yeah, a coincidence," he echoed. But he knew. She'd overheard them. She knew that night, that he had wanted her. And then she'd changed her song, for him.

If only she was actually twenty-one.
