I don't own, "Street Corner Music" Detroit owns that. I also don't own Toronto City Centre..

Two Days Later- Friday

As Jude was putting CDs away in their own genres, she heard the door to "Street Corner Music" open. She looked up and saw Jimmy and Cheddar walk in. She dropped the CD that was in her hand and walked over to them.

"Hey Rabbit, Cheddar." Jimmy and Cheddar looked at her and smiled.

"Hey Baby Girl." Jimmy said kissing her on the cheek.

"Now, see, how come I can't kiss you?" Cheddar asked. Jude laughed and walked over to the register. She hopped on the counter and looked at them. Cheddar started walking around. Jude just noticed that he wasn't walking with crutches.

"When did you get off your crutches Cheddar?"

"This morning." Cheddar said flipping through CDs. Jimmy looked at Jude. He leaned against a wall and leaned his head back.

"You goin' to be at the shelter tonight?" he asked. Jude shook her head.

"Can't, I'm going back home to visit."

"When will you be back?" Jimmy said walking over to her. He leaned against the counter next to her.

"Don't know." Jude said with a shrug. Jimmy raised he brow and asked

"Are you even coming back?" Jude looked at him shocked.

"Of course!"

"Okay, I was just asking." he said throwing his hands in the air.

As Jude walked through Toronto City Centre, millions of thoughts ran through her mind. She could believe that she was home. Whether it was permanent or not, she was home. It was 8:30 PM and she was rolling her luggage behind her. She had just gotten off the phone with someone she thought she would never speak to again. As she exited the airport, she saw the black Escalade. She sighed and walked over to the SUV. The person leaning against the SUV made his way over to her. Jude smiled at him and let go of her luggage. She wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him into her. They might have ended things on bad terms, but it was could to see him again.

"Thank you." She whispered.

"No problem Shortie." Shay said pulling away from her. He grabbed her luggage and they walked to his truck. When they were settled in, Shay turned to Jude.

"Everyone's at my uncle's place. You want to head over there?" he asked starting the Escalade. She nodded and Shay started driving.

During the drive, Jude and Shay caught up with each other. Shay talked about all the tours that he went on and Jude told him about Jimmy, Cheddar, and everything in Detroit. She even showed him the pictures that she bought with her. Pictures, of her with Lilly, with Jimmy, with Cheddar, even of the trailer park that Jimmy lived in. She told him about how Jimmy was an MC. She even told him about how much better she became as a dancer and all the battles she was in.

When they pulled up in front of Darius' mansion, Jude sighed. It was now 9:30 when they got there. She turned her head to look towards the house and saw the lights on. She then looked at Shay and bit her lip.

"Don't worry Jude, they're not mad. Upset that you left, but they're not mad." Shay said softly.

"I know, it's just that it's been a while."

"Are we going to sit here all night or are we going to go inside?" Shay teased. Jude laughed before opening the door and getting out. Shay copied her actions and followed her inside. Walking up the walkway, Jude asked,

"Why is everyone here?"

"I just got back from tour so Uncle D wanted to have a get together." Shay said with a shrug. When they reached the door, Shay went to turn the knob, but Jude stopped him.

"How do I look?" she asked him. She was wearing a white Ryan (h ttp://w ww.a bercr om ore/html/zoom2.html?alphaList1: 2:3:4:5:6:7:8:9:10:& attrTemplat eh&prnbr15200&color s10&zoom1&colorNa meNavy:Blue:Green:Light20Green:Light20Grey:Yellow :Oran ge:Pink:Dar k20Grey:Cream:¤t10 take out spaces), a white Kim skirt (http://ww w. emplate1&prnbr 15010&colors1&zo om1&colorNameWhite:¤t1 take out the spaces), and white flip flops.

"You look great. Now don't worry." he opened the door and they walked inside. Jude stayed behind him, hoping it would hide her.

"Uncle D, I'm here!" Shay shouted as they walked through the living room and not finding anyone there.

"Everyone's outside." Darius said walking through the back door. He was looking down at a brochure and didn't see Jude.

"Hi Darius." Jude said softly causing him to look up shocked.

"What are you doing here?" He asked still shocked. Jude smiled weakly before answering him.

"I said I'd come out didn't I?"

"Yeah, but..."

"If you want me to leave, I can go." Jude said pointing behind her. Darius shook his head quickly and walked over to them. Shay could tell that they wanted to talk and went outside. Darius went up to Jude and pulled her into a tight hug.

"It's good to have you back, Harrison." He said once they pulled away. Jude smiled and nodded.

"Lets go outside." Darius said leading her out back. Once at the door, Jude could see Tommy, Shay, and Kwest talking, Sadie and Portia laughing, and SME and Jamie messing around. She had to admit , she missed all of this. Darius looked at her before turning to the group and speaking,

"Now, everyone knows that Shay has come back from tour and this get together is all for him, but he brought someone with him." Shay smiled knowing what his uncle was doing. Tommy and Kwest turned to Shay and smirked.

"You bring back a groupie Shay Shay?" Tommy asked. Shay was about to answer when someone cut him off.

"I wouldn't consider myself a groupie. Fan maybe but not a groupie." Jude said. Everyone turned to her in shock. Everyone except for Shay and Darius. Shay grabbed a beer from the cooler next to Tommy and walked up to her. He handed it to her and leaned in to whisper in her ear.

"Here, you could sit by me." Jude nodded and started to walk towards the group. She looked at Sadie and could see tears in her eyes.

"Sadie?"

"Yeah?" Sadie asked looking at her with watery eyes.

"You going to sit there or are you going to hug me?" before she could finish, Sadie ran to her and threw her arms around her neck.
