Chapter 9

**Tommy's POV**

The way her chest rises and falls as she peacefully sleeps next to me makes my heart stop. The way her head is snuggled up against my chest makes this seem not wrong. The way her sweet lips form an innocent little smile on her face makes me wonder what she is dreaming about. Could she be dreaming about me, or someone else? What is going on in that head of hers? Then it happens. I never knew one word could change every thing I've ever felt or known. Just one word. One simple little word that made me smile that thousand watt smile I haven't smiled in years. Just by one word Jude Harrison made me fall even more in love with her. That word, that one word, was simply my name. She spoke my name in her sleep and now I know that this isn't wrong. That what I feel for Jude isn't one sided, but returned. Now if only she knew. Her body stirs and her blue-grey orbs meet my eyes and she whispers out "Hi".

**Jude's POV**

"Tommy, look at me please? I need to tell you something and it's kind of important." I say as I pull on Tommy's arm.

"What is it Jude?" Tommy asks with a confused face.

"I know this may be weird coming from me since I'm so young and well your best friend's little sister, but I like you. Like really like you." I say in one breath.

"What was that? I didn't catch a word you said." Tommy says with a smile.

"I said that I like you, like really like you." I shyly say as my face flushes.

"Oh, Jude…" Tommy says with hesitation.

"Look, I know you don't like me back, but I just thought you should know since we spend so much time together, and we are so close, and I don't want any secrets between us, and…" I ramble on until Tommy crashes his lips on mine. "What was that for?" I question after he pulls away.

"For one to shut you up and two I like you too. I've liked you since the moment I saw you." Tommy confesses.

"Oh, wow" I squeak out as I turn bright red.

"Jude, can I please kiss you?" Tommy asks.

"You don't have to ask." I say with a shy smile.

Tommy crashes his lips onto mine. He traces my bottom lip with his tongue begging for entrance that I gladly grant. Our tongues dual against each other in our mouths as our hands roam each other's body. Tommy pulls away and starts trailing kisses down my cheek to my jaw bone and finally makes his way to my neck. He kisses and nibbles on my neck making me feel things I have never felt before.

Tommy recaptures my lips and walks me towards the bed and we fall on it. He hovers over me as his hands start to trail down my body then up my shirt landing on my breast. "Are you okay with this?" Tommy questions with concern. I nod and he grabs my right breast and makes me feel like there is a fire between my legs. The fire makes me want things I never thought about before. Out of no where I slide my hand down Tommy's body to his growing erection.

"Jude, you don't have to." Tommy breaths out at the realization of my actions

"I want to." I whisper out as I slowly slide my hand down into his pants. I grab his full erection in my hand and slowly slide it up and down making Tommy moan. I continue my actions as Tommy captures my lips in a heated, lustful kiss. He slides his hands down my body and down my pants and slowly starts rubbing my spot. My eyes light up in pleasure as the fire between my legs grows.

"Oh wow, that feels amazing." I breathe out.

"God, you are really good at what you are doing." Tommy says with a moan.

I blush and continue my actions as he slowly slides his fingers inside of my wet self. He goes slow, knowing that I'm new at this. "Tommy" I breathe out.

My eyes flutter open to see the man I had just been dreaming about look at me. "Hi" I whisper out.

"Morning sleepy head" Tommy says with a smile.

"How did you sleep?" I ask as I snuggle up against his chest wanting to go back to sleep.

"Good and you? Sounded like you were having a nice dream" Tommy says with a smile.

"I slept fine, thanks for asking." I say while my cheeks flush red.

"And your dream?" He asks with a growing smile.

"Just a normal dream about unicorns and rainbows" I say with a smile as I hide the truth from him. Oh shit, oh shit, oh shit. He so knows I just had a sex dream about him. How? Did I talk in my sleep, or could he just tell? Oh shit. "So, you hungry because I am." I say just as my stomach growls.

"Let's go see what is for breakfast." Tommy says pulling me out of the bed and holding onto my hand longer then necessary, but I'm not complaining.

As we walk into the kitchen we notice there is no one in sight. Scanning the room my eyes fall upon a note sitting on the counter.

"Hey Tommy, I think this is for you" I say as I hold the note out to him.

"Went to the store, everyone already went home. Jude can stay as long as she wants. There are tacos in the fridge for you two. Behave." Tommy read aloud from the note. "Well I guess it is just you and me for awhile." Tommy says with a smile on his face.

"Yep, so is it taco time?" I say with a little giggle.

"Yes it is cutie." Tommy says opening the fridge and getting out the tacos.

After we finish our breakfast we go upstairs to play some video games.

"Ugh, I suck at this game!" I yell out in frustration.

"You do not; you just need to hit the right buttons smart one." Tommy says as he shows me the right buttons for shooting for the eighth time.

"Oh I give up. Can we play guitar hero now?" I ask with a puppy dog look on my face.

"Fine, but that face is not fair. You know I can't say no to that face." Tommy says as he hooks up the new game.

"I know, hence why I use it." I say with a smile on my face.

"Well you are not aloud to use it again." Tommy says as he returns to his seat next to me.

"And if I do use it?" I question with a smirk

"Then I will have to tickle you." Tommy replies with a little laugh.

"That isn't nice; you know I hate being tickled." I say with a little pout.

"Then don't use that puppy dog look on me." Tommy says as he scrolls through the songs on the game.

"Just pick one already." I impatiently whine.

"I want to find the right song, one that I will kick ass at." Tommy says as he scrolls through the songs even slower.

"Oh come on just pick one!" I shout

"No" Tommy says with a cocky smile

"Please" I say with that puppy dog look on my face.

"Oh, now I get to tickle you" Tommy says as he leans over and starts attacking my sides sending me into a fit of giggles.

"Stop…I can't…breathe…" I laugh out as I squirm under Tommy's body.

"No, not until you promise to never use that face again." Tommy says with a smile as he continues to tickle me.

"Fine…I…promise…" I laugh out.

"Good" Tommy says as he stops tickling me.

"Thank you" I huff out.

"I guess you're welcome" Tommy says, his body still hovering over me. Our eyes meet and the space between us closes as our lips meet in a passionate kiss.

"Hey Tommy, you…" comes a voice from the door. Tommy immediately pulls away to see who is at the door to find no other then Ryan.

"Dude, that's my sister!" Ryan yells as he runs in and pushes Tommy off of me. "What the hell do you think you are doing to her!?" Ryan shouts as he pushes Tommy.

"Dude, calm down it isn't what you think. I just…" Tommy tries to explain before Ryan punches him square in the face. "What the hell!?" Tommy yells as blood starts gushing from his nose.

"Ryan! That was so uncalled for" I yell as I pull Ryan away from Tommy. "Look, it was my fault that this happened. I made the move. Tommy didn't do anything." I say trying to calm my brother down.

"Bull shit! You aren't old enough to be kissing people, and Tommy you should have stopped her before it even happened!" Ryan yells trying to go after Tommy but I shove him back.

"Ryan, get a hold of yourself. It was my fault, Tommy didn't see it coming. Just forget it happened okay? Nothing happened today." I say as I walk out of the room as the tears start to form in my eyes.

**Tommy's POV**

"Dude, your sister is right. She started it" I say trying to get my nose to stop bleeding.

"That is bull shit and you know it. You started the kiss. I know you like her dude it is fucking obvious, but she is only 14." Ryan says as he passes the room.

"Really? You know I like her?" I question in disbelief.

"Yes, I see the way you look at her, and the fact that you never stop smiling when she is around. Not that hard to figure out." Ryan explains.

"Fuck, I thought I was hiding it well enough!" I yell.

"Dude, calm down" Ryan says resting his hand on my shoulder. "Look, I know you like her but you have to remember she is 14. Way to young and way out of bounds. Plus she is my little sister." Ryan says

"I know, and I understand, but it is so hard not to feel these things for her. She makes me feel so special and amazing and just makes everything seem right." I explain

"Damn, you've fallen, and hard as hell." Ryan laughs out

"It isn't funny. You really think I want to feel these things for a girl so young? For your little sister? Do you think I like the fact that the girl who understands me, who gets me the most is 14? She is way out of bounds and I know not to go there, but I slip sometimes." I explain

"Wow, I don't have a problem with you liking her, but stay away from her till she is at least 16 dude. I'll try not to kick your ass if you two do get together one day. No promises though, she is still my little sis." Ryan says as he playfully hits me on the shoulder.

"Thanks dude" I say trying to smile, but whence in pain instead.

"Sorry about the nose" Ryan says as we walk out the door and downstairs.

**Jude's POV**

Oh my gosh! I can't believe that just happened. One minute Tommy is kissing me and the next Ryan is smashing his face in. Wow, what a day and it is only 11 AM. So since Tommy kissed me does that mean he likes me or was it just a 'caught up in the moment' moment? I don't know, and I really shouldn't care. I have Justin and I am happy with Justin, or at least I think I am happy with him. Oh what the hell do I know! I like two guys. One that likes me back and is cute and is sweet and is my age and that I am dating. Then there is Tommy. Hot, sexy, older, more experienced Tommy. Who just so happens to be my brother's best friend and like 3 or 4 years older then me. UGH! Haven't I had this conversation with myself before? I am always debating with myself about this whole Tommy thing and I always end up right back where I started. Maybe I should just flat out ask Tommy if he likes me back. What if he says no? I'd look like such an idiot then. I can't ask him. I need to figure out if he likes me somehow though. But how exactly? It isn't like he will ever admit it to anyone. I'm so screwed. I wonder what he and Ryan are talking about. What if Ryan is punching Tommy again? Or worse? I should probably go check on them. No, they will probably think I am spying on them. I really need to just stop thinking to myself and breath. Just breathe Jude, breath. I think I hear footsteps coming down the stairs. Oh look, Ryan and Tommy. Are they laughing? What the hell happened up there? At least they aren't all beaten up. Well I guess I better focus on what they are saying now. Remember to breathe, just breath.

I pull out of my thoughts and focus in on what Tommy and Ryan are saying.

"Like I was saying, Call of Duty is way better then Halo." Ryan says with a chuckle

"Whatever dude." Tommy says as he walks to the fridge and pulls out a soda and ice for his nose.

"Well I am heading home, Jude are you staying or leaving?" Ryan asks

"I think I'm going to stay a little while longer. Tommy can take me home later." I say as I hide a smile at the thought of being alone with Tommy again.

"Okay, see you later. Have fun" Ryan says kissing the top of my head. "Behave." He yells as he walks out the door.

"We will." Tommy and I shout back.

"Alone at last; whatever shall we do?" Tommy asks with a smile.

"Guitar hero?" I ask excitedly

"Anything for you doll face." Tommy says as he kisses my cheek making me blush.
