Losing my Muse
Ch. 10
Author note: So I finally completed the final part to Losing my Muse. Yes I have a sequel. Oh and I don't own Instant Star or any of the songs except the two new songs I had Jude write in New York.
Thank you,
Cindy
(The morning of the party)
(Jude's point of view)
"Good morning beautiful
How was your night
Mine was wonderful
With you by my side
And when I open my eyes
And see your sweet face
It's a good morning beautiful day."
I heard Tommy singing he kissed me and sung it again. I opened my eyes slowly and smiled up at him. I looked at the clock it was shortly after 10 am. I saw a huge breakfast waiting for us. "Wow babe you didn't have to do all this." I said with wide eyes. Usually we just had a light breakfast. "Girl trust me you're going to need your strength and we'll probably not get to eat again until tonight." "Thank you Quincy." He kissed me and then said. "Eat up." After we finished breakfast we took a shower together knowing we wouldn't get anymore time alone for a while.
"Your sister and the rest of the girls are all down in the main ballroom helping decorate." "I guess I better head down there and help." I said trying to not sound sad. I really didn't want to have to leave Tommy yet. "I'll see you at three for my sound check right?" I asked trying to see the silver lining. "Yeah girl I'll see you then, I love you." "I love you too." I kissed him before hurrying downstairs to see what everyone had gotten finished.
"Morning ladies." I said cheerfully. Sadie started laughing. "What?" I asked confused. "I'm just surprised you're so awake this morning." Sadie said. "What are you talking about Sades?" She started laughing again and then said. "Well you and Tommy were going at it until almost five this morning." "What do mean?" I asked innocently. She laughed. "Kwest and I heard you two wow you're loud." "Oh uh um sorry." I muttered under my breath blushing to the color of a cherry I'm sure. All the girls were laughing so hard. Then Zep said. "Karma and Speid weren't any better they were at it until four." Then we all laughed again.
After we finished decorating and going over last minute details Tommy showed up for my sound check. "So Quincy what did you and the boys do while us girls were decorating?" "We all went and picked up our suits for tonight." "Oh yeah I bet yours looks very sexy." "You'll get to see later." He said with a chuckle. "Both your band up bands are nuts girl." "Why?" I asked. "Because both RTE and SME are wearing matching suits." "They're all wearing the same suit?" I asked. "No, RTE are wearing matching suits because SME is." "Oh okay." I said laughing somehow that made prefect sense.
"Okay girl time to sing." I giggled and headed to the stage. I started singing (Don't you Dare) knowing I wasn't going to be singing it tonight. I had a huge surprise for Tommy a brand new song. No one knew yet. I had worked on the lyrics and music by myself. I decided it would be my first single with NBR. Tonight I would be performing it with just an acoustic guitar. I practiced (Whatever you need) next trying to not sound as good as I planned to tonight. "Nice work girl." "Thanks Quincy." I knew it would be hard to surprise Tommy with him working sound so I decided to surprise everyone.
Though now I was wishing I had someone's opinion of my lyrics. I knew this was the most important song I had ever written. I decided to find Sadie after my sound check. I knew Sadie could give me an honest opinion even if her mouth didn't her face would.
The sound check went smoothly and I got to leave early. I went up to Kwest and Sadie's room. Sadie was in the shower when I arrived so Kwest let me in to wait for her. Then he decided to go find Tommy and see if he needed any help with anything for tonight.
I heard the shower shut off. "Kwest you still here?" She shouted. "Sorry not Kwest its Jude." She walked out in her robe. "What's wrong?" She asked. "Nothing Sades do I need a reason to see my sister?" "No of coarse not you just look tense. Is this about tonight?" She guessed. "Yeah kind of I wrote a new song for Tommy and I need an opinion before I sing it tonight." "You want mine?" She asked seeming surprised. "Yes, Sadie you're not only my sister but you work in the music business." "Okay let me read them." "Here but you have to be honest." I said and she nodded.
After a few minutes I saw tears in my sister's eyes. I'm pretty sure that is a good sign. "Wow baby sister their beautiful." "Really?" I asked. "Yeah Jude seriously their great does Tommy know you feel this strong? "I hope so but if not he will tonight." "Good luck tonight Jude." I smiled at my older sister. "Thanks Sades." Sadie and I left to join the other girls again to get ready.
(Tommy's point of view)
After Jude's sound check she left to go talk to Sadie. I decided to double check everything for tonight. Shane and Andrew had already been by but I wanted to make sure everything was prefect for Jude's big night. I saw Kwest come in while I straightened a picture of Jude.
"Party planning for you girl again?" He asked laughing. I rolled my eyes at him. "I'm nervous about tonight." I admitted. "Why man?" "After the party I am planning to ask Jude to marry me again." "Seriously Tom that's great." "I hope so but what if she says no." "Why are you waiting until after the party and does anyone else know?" "Because Jude would freak out if I asked her in front everyone. Only Stuart knows I asked his permission this time." I answered to his questions. "Wow poor Stuart having to give permission for both of his daughters to get married in one week." "You're asking Sadie to marry you?" I asked. "No I already asked and she accepted she just wanted to wait until after the party to tell everyone." "Hopefully when Sadie tells Jude she will be able to tell her we are engaged too." I said trying to sound upbeat. "Do you think you'll beat us to the alter?" Kwest asked. "I don't know that's totally up to Jude I mean she's not even 20 yet." "She will be soon though and I think she will want to get married fast she waited a long time to marry you Tom."
(Jude's point of view)
All of us girls got ready together. Sadie and Kristine were telling the hair stylist how they wanted my hair. I just sat there as the curled it and then put some kind of sliver clip in it to match my star ring. I put on my red dress with Sadie's help. Then I took off my star ring to put my gloves on and then put my star ring over my glove. Kristine got my blue dress ready for my performances.
As we all stood there in our dresses I couldn't help but smile. Sadie was in pink of course. Everyone looked so pretty. I was getting anxious to see the guys especially my guy. The girls all left to make their grand entrances. I waited for Tommy to come and get me.
(Sadie's point of view)
Jude is so funny sometimes she decided to have all her family and friends announced like at a ball. Kwest and I decided to be first so we could watch everyone's arrival. I heard the unseen announcer say. "Kwest Taylor and Sadie Harrison friend and sister of Jude Harrison." My sister was crazy she probably wrote that herself. I laughed and we walked down the huge stair case and found our table.
Kwest and I turned to watch our friends getting announced. "Stuart Harrison father of Jude Harrison." Dad looked great and all the women were starring at my dad. Dad came over and joined us at our table. He hugged me and told me how beautiful I looked. It wouldn't matter that I soon would be married I would always love my dad.
"Robbie Williams and Kristine West tech and designer friends of Jude Harrison and employees of S&A records." Poor guy that was a mouth full I thought with a giggle. Robbie headed for the table set up with his DJ and MC equipment. Kristine wondered off to. I was sure she was check on everything to make sure it was prefect even though that wasn't her job. Jude had made two good friends in them.
"Jamie and Zepland Andrews CEO of NBR and friends of Jude Harrison's." I noticed Zep face when they announced them you could tell how excited she was to hear her new last name. They both looked really cute. Jamie held on tight to his new bride. Jamie greeted a few people he knew before leading Zep to our table.
"SME's Wally and Kyle friends of Jude Harrison and her former backup band members." They both tripped coming down the stairs making both Kwest and I crack up. They waited at the bottom of the stairs. I guess Speid and Karma would be next.
"Recording artists Speiderman and Karma friends of Jude Harrison." Karma looked really pretty but I could already tell she was pregnant she hadn't told anyone her due date yet. I knew she was far enough a long to be showing a little at least especially on her tiny figure.
"RTE's Ricky, Terrance, and Kelly, Jude's back up band on Jude's great hits album." They goofed around all the way down the stairs. "Shane Knots and his wife Alison co-owner of S&A records." I hadn't really gotten to met Shane but Jude said he was a lot like Darius. "Andrew Jennikins and his wife Sarah co-owner of S&A records." Andrew reminded me of Tommy a lot.
The announcer had taken a break I noticed that it seemed everyone but Tommy and Jude were here. I couldn't wait to see Tommy and Jude together especially after Kristine told me they matched. I was so excited I knew Tommy was going to love Jude's song to him.
(Tommy's point of view)
Kristine came and found me she told me Jude was ready. All I could see was her blond hair in curls and the back of her sexy red dress. Jude turned around she looked so sexy absolutely amazing. "Girl you look incredible." "Thank you Quincy you look pretty incredible too." "I believe it's time you ready Miss Harrison."
I grabbed Jude's hand and we headed for the staircase. I heard the announcer say. "Now Ladies and Gentleman our star of the evening Jude Harrison and her co-producer boyfriend Tom Quincy." I smiled at her. "Co-producer boyfriend huh?" "Well that's you right?" She asked with a giggle. I nodded at her. We got to the bottom of the stair case and were greeted by the press. We finally made it to our table.
(Jude's point of view)
Everyone at our table stood up clapping making me blush. Tommy pulled my chair out to sit down. After we sat I heard Shane up on the stage. "Ladies and Gentleman thank you all for coming to the release party for Jude Harrison's greatest hits. Jude we have enjoyed working with you. It has been a pleasure to have you and Tom here at S&A records. We appreciate all your hard work." I'm so glad Shane liked the album.
Shane continued speaking. "Later this evening Jude will perform her new song (Whatever you need). Andrew and I offered to sign Jude for another album but she has already signed with another label. It has been a joy Jude."
Andrew stepped up to the microphone. "I'll keep this short and sweet. Jude, you are an incredible musician. Watching you work with Tom has been a great experience. Thank you both for all your hard work. Good luck with your future I can't wait to hear your new music."
Shane and Andrew left the stage and came over. Shane said. "I meant every word Jude." "Thank you Shane." I hugged him then he turned and spoke to Tommy. "Tom it was nice to work with you take good care of our star." "Nice to work with you too Shane I'll take good care of her." Then Tommy kissed my cheek and Shane left to met and greet.
Andrew's wife Sarah came over and stood next to Andrew while he talked to us. "Jude, Tom you both really are talented keep up the good work at NBR. If either of you need anything feel free to call." I hugged Andrew and said. "It has been amazing; we will see you again soon." He smiled at us and shook Tommy's hand.
Dinner was served. I ate the chicken and rice. We all sat eating and talking. I laughed at RTE copying SME's every move. Sadie and Dad were telling stories of when Sadie and I were little and use to put on shows for our parents and their friends. I use to sing of course and Sadie would dance or play an instrument.
"Ladies and Gentleman my name is Robbie Williams and I will be your MC and DJ for the evening. Every song was chosen it to be played tonight has been chosen by Jude's closet friends. So I'm sure you'll all enjoy the music." Robbie let all my friends pick the music that was so cool.
"First up is a song by Jude's friends SME here is Lips of an Angel be Hinder." I smiled at Speid, Wally and Kyle. Wally came over and asked me to dance and then I danced with Kyle. They only stepped on my feet four times a new record I do believe.
Then Robbie said. "This song is from RTE it is Stop this World by Ne-Yo they said they heard you singing it a few times around the studio." I smiled and took turns dancing with Ricky, Terrance, and Kelly. I finally sat down let me feet rest a little. 24 hours was playing it was Mason's request. He and I talked while Chaz and Tommy were talking.
"Next up here is White Lines Sadie Jude's sister picked this song she said it was her favorite of all of Jude's songs." I smiled and hugged my sister. Tommy asked me to dance. Kwest and Sadie joined us on the dance floor. "So Quincy are you having a good time?" I asked feeling nervous. "Yeah girl but anytime I'm with you is great." Tommy said as White Lines ended. The next song was Love to Burn it was my Dad's request so I danced with him.
"The next song was requested by Speiderman and Karma here is Want to by Sugarland." I liked this song the lyrics were really nice. I danced with Speid. Karma and Tommy danced together and then we switched off.
Then I heard Kwest. "I picked a special song for Tommy and Jude but they both know why I picked this song. So here is Time to be your 21. Tommy and I both laughed. "So Jude I guess I'll take 20." Tommy said referring to my birthday next month. Tommy kissed my neck softly.
Tommy and I sat back down before we heard Robbie's voice again. "The next song was chosen by Andrew he couldn't believe how well your voices blended together here is Here we go Again. Tommy smiled at me and led me to the dance floor. We sung to each other while we danced.
"This song is for Jude and Tommy from myself and Kristine. A little reminder of a crazy fun night the four of us had. Here is Little Moments by Brad Paisley." Robbie said. That night was just six weeks ago. Had it really only been six weeks. As we danced Tommy sung to me. His voice was low and rough but so beautiful. We swayed he whispered. "I love you." It's amazing how much three words can mean. "I love you too." When the song ended we stayed on the dance floor. I didn't care what song was next as long as I was in Tommy's arms.
"The next song was chosen by Jude herself when I asked her favorite out of all her songs. She told me it was Prefect so here is Prefect." Robbie said. I giggled and Tommy pulled me close. We danced fairly slowly even though the song isn't that slow. "This is your favorite song?" Tommy asked puzzled. "Yeah I think it describes us were not prefect but we are prefect for each other." I said with a big grin.
"Jude, Tommy don't leave the dance floor for the next song I am turning over my microphone to Jamie Andrews." "Hi everyone I'm Jude's oldest friend. I have seen her through a lot especially with Tom." Jamie said laughing. "I chose 2am it means a lot to both Jude and Tommy." Jamie said and then went to dance with Zep.
2am started playing Tommy pulled my as close as possible. He whispered. "Sing for me Big Eyes." I sung the song that use to represent our heartbreak to him. Tommy pulled back to look into my eyes. I noticed all of our friends dancing. Jamie came and kissed my cheek before going back to dancing with Zep. I mouthed thank you to Jamie.
"In about 30 minutes Jude will be performing. But for now we have one more song this one was chosen by Tom Quincy. Here is Good morning beautiful by Steve Holy. I remembered that it was the same song Tommy has woke me up singing this morning. Tommy grinned and sung in my ear while he held me tightly. "Tommy it's the prefect song." I said with tears in my eyes. "I wanted to choose one of yours but I couldn't pick just one." I couldn't help but let more tears fall down my face. I was suddenly happy Kristine made me wear the water-proof make-up. Tommy took his thumb and wiped the tears away while he kept singing. When the song ended he pulled me into a kiss that made me dizzy I almost fainted. I blushed as he guided us back to our table.
(Tommy's point of view)
After Jude and I got done dancing we went back to our table. After about ten minutes Kristine came and took Jude to get dressed for her performance. Jude told me I would like that dress even more. I couldn't imagine liking any dress more than that sexy red dress except maybe a wedding dress on her. Jude appeared on stage in her beautiful blue dress. I made my way over to the sound system. Robbie sat there next to me. He whispered. "Jude is going to give a little speech first then sing Whatever you need." "What about Don't you Dare?" I asked confused. Robbie shrugged. Why the hell did Jude make last minute changes without telling me? I heard the voice of my angel getting everyone's attention.
"I'm Jude Harrison welcome to my release party for my fifth album Jude Harrison's greatest hits. First I would like to thank Shane and Andrew for this wonderful opportunity. I have enjoyed New York so much. Everyone at S&A records has been so good to both Tom and I." I was glad Jude included my thanks to everyone.
"This album was challenging in a new way but also a lot of fun. I have worked with an amazing group of people. Including Kristine West my incredible fashion designer and also has been an assistant for me. Robbie Williams is an amazing sound tech and has you can all tell a great MC and DJ. Gina thank you for keeping us organized and on schedule." I had to laugh that Gina chick was scary but she did help us.
"RTE you have been a great back up band and I know you have all got great futures ahead of you. Now I saved the best for last." She smiled right at me. "Tom Quincy has been my producer, co-song writer, friend, my boyfriend but he is also my muse. I knew when I came to New York I had lost my muse and now I have him back. Tom has helped me create and inspired my music everyday I have known him." I smiled at my girl she really was the best.
"Tonight after I sing Whatever you need I have a new song inspired once again by my feelings for Tom Quincy." She had a new song? When did she write it? I wondered if she had just written it or if she had been working on it?
"My new song will be my first single with NBR who I signed with this morning." My eyes widened I thought Jude said she was announcing signing with NBR tomorrow. "I want to congratulate my friends Jamie and Zepland Andrews on their marriage and Speiderman and Karma on her pregnancy." Did Jude just out Karma's pregnancy to the press? I looked over at Speid and Karma to see if they were mad but they were both smiling. "Tomorrow Speid, Karma, and I will be having a joint press conference to let everyone know about our futures with NBR." Jude said.
"So without father do here is Whatever you need." She nodded for me to start the music. She sung it just as sexy as she had in the booth that day we recorded it. I could feel my pants getting tighter. I had remembered what Jude had said about her Dad hearing her new song. I looked over but Stuart was smiling I guess he knew his little girl was all grown up. When Jude finished the song she winked and blew me a kiss.
I saw Sadie go to the stage and hand Jude an acoustic guitar. I guess Sadie was the only person Jude had told about her new song because everyone else looked as surprised as I am.
"This is my new song called A song for Tommy. I wrote it for my true love, my soul mate Tom Quincy." I saw everyone looking at me. Robbie pushed me towards the stage. Jude began singing to me.
Another beginning it starts now
Tonight is the night
The first night of the rest of our lives
Every smile and every tear
I love you more than yesterday
You'll love me more tomorrow
Another beginning it starts now
This is the first night
Of the rest of our lives
Did Jude know I was planning to propose I wondered after hearing the first verse? This song was beautiful. And you could tell how emotional it was in her voice.
I wanna be your wife
I'll wear you ring so proudly
I wanna be you Mrs.
I'll wear a pretty dress
I'll promise myself to you forever
I think my heart just skipped a beat. I couldn't believe she had said it. She wants to be my wife.
I wanna be a momma to your babies
I wanna be your wife
I noticed the tears in her eyes and my eyes were beginning to fill with them too. This was Jude's way of proposing to me. I had never heard anything more beautiful.
You broke my heart a few times
But I survived because I knew
I broke your heart too
But you survived because you knew
In the we aren't happy without each other
There's no me without you
There's no you without me
She was right neither of us could ever be truly happy without the other. We both knew that now. As she repeated the chorus the tear started running down her face as she smiled at me.
I ran towards the stage. She finished the final chord. I kissed her I was sure everyone was applauding but I couldn't hear anything but our two heart beats. As I pulled away I could tell she was nervous.
She was about to ask when I stopped her. I already had my proposal planned. I really wanted to do this right. I whispered. "That song is exactly how I feel and tonight I'll show you." She went to speak again. I cut her off and said. "Tonight." She nodded and kissed me. When we pulled apart I heard Robbie say. "Ladies and Gentleman let's hear it again for Jude Harrison." Everyone was clapping I heard cheers coming from all around us.
Robbie played more music and everyone except Jude and I were dancing. Jude was sitting in my lap. I took off her heel and rubbed her foot. She moaned in my ear causing me to chuckle. She kissed my neck and whispered. "I love you Tom Quincy." It was the first words she had spoke since she finished singing. "And I love you Jude Harrison." I continued rubbing her foot and then rubbed the other one. Everyone arrived back at the table getting their stuff to leave. We promised to have breakfast with everyone in the morning.
I picked Jude up into my arms. She gasped in surprise of my sudden action. I went towards the service elevator. Jude looked up at me with confusion in her big blue eyes.
(Jude's point of view)
Tonight has been so great and I have a feeling it's about to get even better. Tommy picked me up carrying me to the service elevator. I wondered why we were going on this one. "Tommy where are we going?" I asked as I saw him push for the top floor.
I could feel my heart beat quickening. I guess Tommy did too. He kissed my cheek and lowered me to the elevator floor. Then he grabbed my hand and led me to the roof. "Are we going to the roof?" I asked anxiously.
(Tommy's point of view)
This morning I went up to the roof and decided it was the prefect place. The hotel staff and Kwest helped me set everything up. I had Jude's CD playing in the background. There were white lights I think they call them twinkle lights and dozens of blue and white roses. The table was set up with candles, flowers, champagne, strawberries, and chocolate sauce all Jude's favorites.
Jude looked around and smiled. I guided her over to the table. "Whoa Quincy it's beautiful." She said looking around at everything. "It's okay, beautiful that's you." She rolled her eyes and blushed.
I dipped a strawberry in the chocolate sauce and feed it to Jude. She giggled when some of the chocolate sauce ran down her chin. I wiped it off her chin and then brushed my lips against hers. I poured us both some champagne. We took turns feeding each other. I took a deep breath and decided it was now or never.
"Did you mean what you said in the song?" I asked her already knowing the answer. "Yes I am ready to be your wife." "Good because Jude I love you and I want to spend my life with you. I want us to make music together and have babies and grow old together." She was crying again. I got down on one knee in front of her. Right on cue (2am) started playing. "I love you more than my own life. Jude will you make me the happiest man on earth and marry me?" She starred trying to catch her breath. I took out the blue ring with star diamonds around it.
(Jude's point of view)
Tommy was going to propose the roof looked amazing. We feed each other strawberries and drinking our champagne. My CD played in the background. Blue and White roses my favorite flowers.
Tommy asked if I meant what I said in the song. I noticed how nervous he was. Why shouldn't he be though less than a year ago I agreed to marry him and then left? I just wasn't ready but I am now.
His proposal was so sweet and straight from his heart. I started to cry as 2am played. When he said we would spend his life trying to make me happy I literally gasped trying to catch my breath.
Then he took out my ring. Wow that's my ring. It was incredible the same blue as I was wearing and the star diamonds made it beyond prefect. Oh no he looks so nervous but I can't even speak. I'm sobbing trying to say something.
"Yes Tommy I'll marry you." He swept me up into his arms pulling me off the ground. "Can I have my ring now?" I chocked out. He laughed and slipped the ring on my finger. "Finally that ring is exactly where it belongs." Tommy said with a huge grin on his face. I looked at him and asked. "How long have you had this ring?" "A long time Kwest was holding it for me and he made me bring it to New York with me. Remind me to thank him when we get home." He said and I nodded. He never really gave up on me. I was so happy to hear that.
We started kissing I couldn't stop. For once in my life I am sure about my future. I knew we needed to talk before I made anymore decisions. "So um Tommy when do you want to get married?" I asked biting my lip. He looked down not wanting to answer me.
(Tommy's point of view)
She said yes and this time I can tell she sure. When she asked when I wanted to get married I wasn't sure what to say. I mean she'll be 20 soon but she still so young and I don't want to move too fast or hold her back. But I want her to be my wife.
I just realized I hadn't said anything in ten minutes. Jude was sitting back in her chair. She looks so upset damn it. "Girl whenever you're ready to marry me I'll be ready too." "I was uh um well thinking six months." She stammered. I was shocked did she just say she wants to get married in six months. "I told Jamie that I was going to take my time with my next album." She said. "So in six months you'll be my wife." I said still clearly shocked she wanted to do it so soon. She nodded getting tears in her eyes again. I suddenly felt more happiness than I had ever felt I had tears in my eyes too.
(Jude's point of view)
In May I will be Mrs. Tom Quincy. I giggled myself. Tommy come over and asked me to dance with him. I felt his heart beating against my chest. He ran his hands up and down my arms.
He started kissing me. I moaned into the kiss. He's always passionate but this time was different. Tommy kissed down my neck sucking my pulse making me jump. He chuckled and then kissed my collar bone. He pulled down the blue strap. He kissed my breast and then took my nipple into his mouth. He blew on it making me yelp out.
He guided me backwards while kissing me again on my lips. He pushed me onto an air mattress I hadn't noticed. I giggled into the kiss. He leaned down taking off one of my heels kissing my foot and then up my leg to my inner thigh. Then he gave my other leg the same treatment.
He kissed me again before pulling his jacket and tie off. I unbuttoned his shirt as fast as possible. I ran my hands up and down the muscles of his chest. He groaned and I pulled his shirt out of his pants. Before I could unzip his pants he pushed me back and he pulled my dress over my head.
He starred down at me. "My Angel." He said quietly. I smiled unbuttoned his pants and pulled the zipper down. He kicked off his shoes, socks, and then his pants. He was wearing a pair of silk boxers I had never seen before. "I thought I would wear something special." He said noticing my curious look. He pulled my pink lacey thong off leaving me completely nude.
His blue eyes were dark. He pulled me towards him. He ran his strong hands down my body. He made sure to touch every inch of me. I moaned and panted. He traced my breast and then around my nipples. He fingers made there way down my stomach. He took his tongue and licked my belly button.
He ran his hands down my pelvic bone and then inside my wetness. First he was gentle then rougher. He smirked pulling off his boxers. He entered me swiftly I yelled out. He laughed and kissed my neck.
As he kept going I moaned his name louder. I could feel him getting harder and harder inside me. He picked up the pace panting as loud as I was. He pulled my legs around him so he could go deeper. I arched up towards him as we moved in prefect motion.
Before he could go deeper I used all my strength and flipped us over. I got on top him and rode him like never before. I felt the sweat falling off my body and onto his. He was calling my name spurring me on. Finally we came at exactly the same time shouting each other's names.
I laid on top of Tommy with him still in me. He kissed my forehead and whispered. "I love you Jude Harrison soon to be Quincy." I smiled and said. "I love you too." I felt the rain falling on us. It was so cold. It had been such a warm day until now. Tommy quickly pulled me off him and wrapped me in a blanket.
He gathered up our stuff. We ran to the elevator. Then we headed to our room. We ended up making love three more times before we fell asleep. I never slept more peacefully in my life.
(Tommy's point of view)
We had to get up early and met everyone for breakfast before Jude's press conference. "Good morning fiancée'." Jude said smiling. "So no doubts future Mrs. Quincy?" She smiled at her ring and then me. "Not a one." I kissed her again. "Let's hurry and get a shower." I said picking her up and heading for the bathroom.
After our shower we were dressing when I noticed Jude had a blank expression. "Girl you okay?" "Um uh yeah just have a question." She said biting her lip. "You can ask me anything you know that Jude." "Would you um sit next to me at the press conference?" "Sure girl no problem." She smiled and kissed me. We headed to the elevator. "So Quincy who knew you were going to propose?" "Well I asked for your Dad's permission and I told Kwest early yesterday." She said. "You asked my dad?" "Yeah girl I told you I wanted to do this right this time." "I love you." "I love you too."
(Jude's point of view)
We got to our table. Speid, Karma, Wally and Kyle were already eating. The waitress asked. "What can I get for you Miss Harrison, Mr. Quincy?" "She'll take O.J. and coffee with lots of sugar." "And he'll take milk and coffee black." The waitress smiled we all ordered our breakfast.
"Tommy and I have an announcement." I flashed my beautiful ring and said. "We're getting married in May." Everyone started hugging us and telling us congratulations. Sadie said. "Kwest and I are also engaged." She showed me her ring. "Sades that's great." I hugged Kwest. "Why May Jude?" Sadie asked. "Because we'll need at least six months to plan a wedding and we want to get married ASAP." I thought my dad would be shocked but he seemed happy for us. "So Sades have you guys thought about a date yet?" "Not really I was thinking June but we should wait that's too soon after yours." "Sades?" I said really excited. "What Jude?" "What about a double wedding?" Tommy smiled and looked at Kwest both of them nodded.
"Okay." Sadie said hugging me. "We can start planning next week when Tommy and I get home." "Sounds great Jude this is going to be so much fun." We all toasted and ate our breakfast. Then we headed off to the press conference before going to the airport everyone was heading back to Toronto today except Tommy and me.
(Tommy's point of view)
I never thought I would be excited to get married again. When Jude suggested a double wedding with Kwest and Sadie I was actually more excited. We headed to the press conference. I sat next to Jude on one end while Jamie, Zep, Karma and Speid sat at the other end.
Jamie spoke first. "Good morning first I want to say how happy I am with all the recent good news at NBR. My wife and I have made a few decisions I want to share with everyone today. Zepland and I have decided to be Co-CEO's. Speiderman and Karma will be cutting their tour short to be home more. Also Speiderman and Karma have decided to do their next album together."
"Next as she announced last night Jude Harrison has signed with us. She will not only be an artist but a Producer. She has decided to take her time putting out her next album. I will let Jude fill you in on more details. Tom Quincy will once again be co-producing with Jude and also recording a single of his own." I turned to see Jude shocked face. I grabbed her hand. "And up last we would like to announce NBR's new Vice-President Sadie Harrison." Everyone was clapping. Jamie had offered for Sadie and I to be co-vice president but I declined I wanted to focus on my music now.
"Now I want to turn it over to Speiderman and Karma." Jamie said as he pushed his microphone away. Karma spoke first. "Speid and I are expecting our first child in June. We are thrilled. I'm sorry we have to cut our tour short but we promise to make it up to you. Our joint album is so exciting we are so grateful to get the full producing team of Kwest Taylor, Tom Quincy, and Jude Harrison." Yeah it would take all three of us to keep them in line. "Speidy do you have anything you want to add?"
"Yeah SME is also looking forward to reuniting to help not only with mine and Karma's joint album but with Jude's as well." I wondered if they would be willing to help me with back up too. Funny huh I never thought I would want Jude's back up band's help. "Now let me toss this over it my bud Jude Harrison." Speid said.
(Jude's point of view)
"Hi everyone once again let me say how happy I am to be going home and working at NBR with all of my friends. I can't wait to start producing and working on my next album. But yes my next album will be delayed just a little because I will be busy planning my wedding to Tom Quincy." I said nervously flashing my ring. The photographers were going crazy nearly blinding me. Tommy reached over and grabbed my hand. "Tom and I are planning a joint ceremony with my sister Sadie Harrison and her fiancée producer Kwest Taylor in May." I stammered a bit over my words. I whispered. "Is there anything you want to say Tommy?" He shook his head no and I pushed the mic away.
Jamie said. "Thank you all for coming and we are looking forward to all the new improvements at NBR." The press was yelling out questions. Jamie signaled for Speid, Karma, Tommy and I to leave. We all left running from the press. When we got back upstairs to our room I noticed more bodyguards.
(Later that afternoon)
(Still in Jude's point of view)
We were in the airport biding our friend's goodbye. But just for a week then we would be home too. We hugged everyone and sent them off including my Dad who had decided to get an apartment back home. He wanted to be around for Sadie and Me. Especially while we were planning probably realized we would need a reefer.
Tommy and I headed back to the hotel. After getting chased by the press and eating we fell asleep. We slept really late I guess we were worn out after everything.
We spent the next week packing. Robbie and Kristine came and helped us. Everyone S&A records had agreed to come to the wedding. It was hard to say goodbye this was the place where I got my life back. But Toronto will always be home. I knew Tommy and I would come back to visit.
We were packing the last box when cell rung. When I got the good news I was jumping around. Tommy laughed. "Who was on the phone?" "My house in London sold!" I said I felt like it was prefect timing. Tommy asked. "Does that mean you won't let me pay for anything again?" I laughed and rolled my eyes.
(A few days later)
(Tommy's point of view)
Jude and I were standing in the airport with Robbie and Kristine waiting for our flight. Jude wanted to drive her mustang but I convinced her to let me have it shipped home. We all went to baggage claim. "Announcing boarding first class Flight 70 New York to Toronto." We heard over the loud speaker.
"Robbie man it's been great take care of your girl and we'll see you two in May." I said and we did a manly hug. "Take good care of Jude no making her cry got it?" Robbie said laughing. "Jude take care star." She hugged Robbie. "Okay you two we'll see you in May but I expect lots of phone calls and e-mails before than okay?" Jude and I smiled and both hugged her. We boarded the plane waving good bye to them.
(Jude's point of view)
"So Quincy you ready to plan a wedding?" "Yeah I guess so." He said laughing. I looked out the window as we took off. We were finally headed home. I still had a few questions but I knew Tommy was the final answer to the important ones because I can't lose my muse and soul mate ever again.
The End
