Chapter 10

"So, overall how was meeting Candi?" I asked Jude that night as we got ready for bed.

"Ok, she is just…. I don't know." She replied. Good answer, the car ride back was very silent then my dad thought we should all watch a movie. That was a lovely fight between Jude and Candi, I actually enjoyed it until I had to carry Jude outside and calm her down. I didn't mind the part where I had to hold her on my lap while my mom calmed Candi down though.

"Well, that is Candi. So, how does it feel knowing in two weeks you are going to be legal?" I asked her as I climbed into bed.

"Don't know, how is it supposed to feel?" She asked. I bet she is excited, now she can legally go out with Tommy, it still be looked down upon, but it is legal.

"I don't know; that you are officially an adult, plus my driving record got cleared thank god! You are the last of the band to turn eighteen."

"What do you mean by driving record?"

"Oh yeah, I got picked up for drag racing but got off easy with another charge, less points."

"Funny, I bet I could have got out of it completely because I am Jude Harrison."

"You keep thinking that, what do you want for your birthday?"

"I don't know; I am hoping that this time my G-Major party goes over better than my sixteenth."

"It should, Shay and Eden won't be there, or so we can hope."

"Funny Vincent."

"Ouch…low blow Harrison."

"You know you like it."

"IF I did I would never admit it."

"That is what I thought, good night Vincent." Jude said as she moved around trying to get comfortable.

"Good night Over-rated." I replied as I turned off the light. If she can call me Vincent, then Over-rated it is.

"Are you sure that they aren't more then friends Aunt Madison?" Candi asked Speed's mom Sunday morning as they peeked in his room.

"Positive, they are best friends. Why?" Madison replied.

"They just look like it, I mean she is wearing his boxers and is laying on him." Candi said. Jude had got out of bed once Speed was asleep and raided his dresser and then climbed back into bed and decided Speed's chest is a better pillow.

"She has some obsession with stealing his boxers and I know that she looks at him as a friend." Madison replied.

"Ok, are you sure that they aren't doing anything more? They just seem like they would."

"Yes Candace, I am sure."

"Sure, you know there is one true way to find out, that is to check his dresser drawers, that is where guys tend to hide their stuff." Candi said with a smirk on her face.

"I know what is in his dresser, nothing of that sort. I just put away stuff yesterday."

"Night stand?"

"He has nothing to hide, I know because he will openly let me search his room at any time if I please. The only thing he won't let anyone touch is his notebook."

"Maybe his notebook might reveal…"

"It is full of songs, love songs he has written about her. I have read it when he is at school."

"Ok."

"They are friends, I know he wants more, but she is a sweet girl and I am glad that he has a good friend in her. Let's go get breakfast." Madison said as they walked away.

"Wake up sleepy head." Jude said in my ear rather loudly in the morning.

"Sleep, I need sleep. All guitar gods need their beauty sleep." I mumbled as I buried my head under the pillow. I knew Jude was getting mad and I knew she was thinking of what to say next, but I could care less. I was very tired, very, very tired.

"I need you to get up." She said.

"Why?" I mumbled back.

"Um…because I went and took a shower and someone stole my clothes…all of them and left me with this tiny towel…so in other words, I am naked." Jude said.

"What?" I screamed as I shot up. Naked? My bed? Reminds me of a song. Damn it, she isn't naked, she is wearing a shirt and my boxers. MY BOXERS! There they go.

"You perv!" She said smacking my arm. Is there anything wrong with wanting to see her naked? I think not.

"Shut up, let's go get breakfast." I said getting out of bed. I was disappointed; she shouldn't get one's hopes up like that. I have always wondered what she looks like naked. Maybe I will get lucky one of these days and accidentally walk in on her in the shower. Note to self: have her take a shower in your bathroom later.

"Good morning Vinnie and Jude, don't eat too much, we are going out to lunch in about two hours." My dad said to us as we walked in the kitchen.

We went and grabbed a doughnut each and I got a glass of milk and Jude got orange juice. We went back upstairs and ate then got ready.

"Want to have some fun with Candi?" Jude asked me with an evil sounding tone as I walked back in my room from taking a shower

"Huh?" I asked replied when I saw her standing there holding eyeliner and her straightening iron. Scary sight to see and she wasn't naked. Damn it.

"Well, she pretty much freaked when she saw the eyeliner, how do you think she would react if you actually wore it to lunch as well as letting me do your hair?" Jude asked.

"I don't know, but I better come out looking like a rock god and not some queer." I replied, I truly didn't want to do it, but Jude turned on the charm.

"YES!" Jude squealed as she plugged in her straightening iron. "B.R.B"

Two hours later, Jude and I went downstairs in all our rocker glory. I think my mom knew what was going on; she is smart when it comes to that stuff. I had on dark jeans and a black t-shirt with my favorite skater shoes. I had a chain and couple wrist bands on. Jude had straightened my hair and I wore a black cadet hat. I of course had on a good amount of black eyeliner on. Jude was wearing black jeans with a black tank and denim jacket on. She had on a black pair of boots. She had on good amount of black eyeliner as well with dark makeup. Candi's jaw hit the ground when we walked down, we totally clashed with her preppy princess outfit. Damn, do I love Jude?

"Ready to roll?" I asked as my mom quietly laughed at Candi's reaction and Jude's new found attitude. My dad failed to see the humor I am guessing. I still remember the first time I came downstairs in eyeliner, he freaked. He asked my mom if I had turned gay, she had to explain it was part of the rocker phase I was apparently going through. Kyle and Wally were not allowed to stay over for a week.

"You two are awful…but I love it." My mom hissed at us as we walked out of the house. She gets annoyed with Candi so easily as well, but can hide it for my dad's sake.
