A/N: HA! Surprise surprise. I haven't forgotten about this. Really.
Life just got in the way and then I jacked up my computer and la la la. But the next chapter is here. And I'm reworking the one after this, which is like The Moment of Truth.
Anyway, here it is: Tommy talking about writing with Jude.
Thanks:
HopelessRomantic984: Me too. I wish more artists would admit that too. Maybe there would be better music out there. And I think Jude is so adamant about her music vs. her celebrity status that she would be the first to admit it. Yay! I'm glad you liked the song. He might…if she lets him. ;D
bbybty9: LOL. The whispers only last a few words, then he man's up.
Frayed at the Edges: I'm glad you like it and your question will be answered in the next chapter, but with that said, I think you can guess what the answer is. LOL.
alexzrules: Yes, yes she is. LOL. I'm glad you liked the song choice. I think it's great too.
modernxxmyth: Me too. Really? I've wanted to see him perform for a while, but never got the chance. I guess I'll have to see when 30 plays sometime soon. I'm glad you liked it.
SimpleMelody47: LOL. I'm glad you love it! Eventually things will calm down between them, in a way. But that won't mean the drama will stop. :D
chocolateelephantz: Thank you! I'm posting now!
letitrain810: Yeah, inspiration sparks at the oddest times. I love the song too. Here's the next chapter!
bolt from the blue: I'm glad you think this is fun! I hope you like this new chapter.
Disclaimer: Nothing.
R&R or R&L please.
THANKS MUCHO!

Chapter Nine
"The Writing Process"
Shhh! I can't talk loud. She might hear me.
Although now that I think about it, I did lock the door so….okay, this is good. I know you were probably wondering why the hell I was whispering in the first place.
Well, I had to hide.
From her.
She's driving me freakin' insane.
I mean we've been in the studio for four hours now.
And I would have thought that maybe – by some miracle of God, that we would actually have a verse or a chorus or hell, even a refrain!
But with perfectionist Jude over there, anything that comes out of either of our heads…she automatically shoots down, saying it's shit!
I mean, I know I'm a perfectionist, but I sure as hell don't remember her ever – I mean, she's worse than I am.
So much worse.
So I'm here, trying to rack my brains of some substance that may earn me a free pass to get lunch.
Because I need something to calm my nerves or that will make me sleepy so that I don't have to deal with her insanity.
I didn't think the writing process would be so hard.
I've worked with other artists before and usually it's pretty simple.
We do some exercises maybe…to get the crap out of our head and then we write.
Or we think of something we want to say or that's been troubling us and we just hit the ground running.
But Jude – I don't know what her deal is.
Heh.
Okay, that's a lie. I do. To an extent. That's if she's even thinking about what I'm thinking about.
Cryptic, I know.
But I can't say anything. I just need the past to stay in the past so we can get this album done. For everyone.
I need a beer.
What time is it?
Shit! It's only eleven. Well, they do say it's 12 'o'clock somewhere. Or is it 5?
Nevermind. Jude has rendered my brain useless.
And to think, she had people writing most of her songs up until a month ago – oops.
I mean, she collaborated. Yeah, that's the word.
Which is also what we're supposed to be doing right now.
But we didn't collaborate when she wrote that damn song ALL BY HERSELF yesterday morning and you don't hear me pitching a bitch fit about lyrics or chord progression or tempo or –
Wait.
I hear her heels.
Shit!
She knows I'm here. I got to go.
I hope I'll live to see another confessional.
See ya!
