Chapter 14: My Wish
It had been three months since we found out Jude was pregnant. We hadn't told anyone because we didn't know how they would react. Christmas was coming up and so was our wedding. The wedding was on Christmas day. The sunset was supposed to be amazing and, it was supposed to lightly snow.
The guest list was exclusive on out closest friends and family. Kwest was the best man and Sadie was the maid of honor. Kwest also had a surprise and a ring waiting for Sadie on the day of the wedding.
Christmas was two weeks away, and I still hadn't gotten Jude's gift. I already had her wedding band that matched the engagement ring that I specially made for her. I still didn't know what to get her. What do you get the world's greatest rock star?
I was deep in my thoughts when I felt someone's hand over my eyes. I knew it was Jude because I could smell her sweet and heavenly scent.
"Jude, what's going on?" I asked smiling.
"Just keep your eyes closed Quincy." I felt her out a piece of paper in my hands. I didn't know what it was but, it felt like a picture.
"Alright, you can open your eyes now." She said. I opened my eyes, and it was a picture if the ultrasound.
"Oh my god, Jude"
"I went this morning; I didn't want to tell you because I wanted it to be a surprise. I was going to wait until the wedding but, I couldn't" She said.
"Is it a boy or a girl?" I asked curious.
"It's a girl. I still can't think of any names yet."
"Hmm. I don't know, we'll think of something surely." I pulled her around from behind me and sat her on my desk. I pulled her to me and kissed her. I didn't want to let her go but, I knew that we had to get back to work.
"Okay, okay. We have to work sometime." I said not wanting to pull away from her. But, she didn't let me. She held her arms around my neck and my arms were around her waist.
"Hey, not in the work place," Darius said. I put the picture of the ultrasound in my desk drawer and hoped that Darius didn't see it.
"Sorry, D. She is my fiancée you know." I said
"I know but, you two have to work sometime. Since the wedding is in two weeks, and you only have five days left here. Plus, you both have two weeks off after the wedding." He said.
"Alright, were going."
Jude hopped off the desk and I got out of the chair. Jude was in front of me and my arms were around her waist, and my hand directly on her stomach. I was looking forward to having a kid, and I wanted Jude to be the only one that I ever had children with.
We waked into Studio A, and Sadie and Kwest were making out.
"Jeez, not in the work place," Me and Jude said in unison.
"Alright, I'll let you three get to work." Sadie said and she put her hand on Jude's stomach. Sadie knew because Jude couldn't hold it inside. I knew better than to ask her not to tell Sadie because she was her sister. Kwest knew too, and that's because I told him.
"Tommy, why don't you record today?" She asked me.
"Why is it me? You're the one with an album coming out soon."
"Because," She batted her eyes at me and I knew that I wasn't going to win this one. "Please Tommy, please?" She gave me the puppy dog face and I gave in.
"Alright, you win. Put in 'My Wish'." I told her.
I walked into the recording booth and out the headphones on and starting singing.
I hope that the days
come easy and the moments pass slow, But more than anything, more
than anything, I hope you never look back, but ya never
forget, But more
than anything, yeah, and more than anything, This is my wish
And each road leads you where
you want to go,
And if you're faced with a choice, and you have to
choose,
I hope you choose the one that means the most to you.
And
if one door opens to another door closed,
I hope you keep on
walkin' till you find the window,
If it's cold outside, show the
world the warmth of your smile,
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all
that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, and your worries stay
small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And
while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you
know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah,
this, is my wish.
All the ones who love you, in the place you left,
I
hope you always forgive, and you never regret,
And you help
somebody every chance you get,
Oh, you find God's grace, in every
mistake,
And you always give more than you take.
My wish, for you, is
that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay
big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more
than you can hold,
And while you're out there getting where you're
getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same
things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.
I
hope you know somebody loves you
May all your dreams stay big
When I was done, Jude was amazed. She knew the title of the song but, she had never heard the lyrics. I had written it for our child. I figured that it would fit. Jude loved it I could tell. I walked out of the booth and Jude kissed me.
"You like it?"
"Yeah, it was beautiful." I hugged her.
"T, that was amazing." Kwest and Darius said. I didn't even know that Darius was standing there.
"D, I didn't even know you were standing there." I told him.
"That was the idea." He said.
"What did you think?"
"Nice, Jude I thought you were recording today?"
"I decided not to." She pleasantly said.
About two hours later me and Jude left G-Major and went to get some Chinese take-out. We went back to the house and ate. I could tell that Jude was tired and I was too.
"Jude, you alright?"
"Yeah, I'm just really sleepy." She looked at me and yawned. "I loved the song Tommy" she said and I went and put my arms around her while she was doing the dishes.
"I was going to perform it at the wedding after we told everyone but, I decided to go ahead and do it today since you didn't want to record."
"Thank you. I didn't want to record but, I knew that was the only song you could record."
"You're evil Jude Harrison."
"You've done it to me before, remember? When I wrote 'How Strong Do You Think I Am' just after we got back together and you tricked me into recording." She said.
"Alright, you have the revenge you wanted. But, that song was really great." After finishing the dishes, we went and got ready for bed. When Jude took off her shirt, I could see the scars that were left from Jason, and I could see the one's that were on her face and her arms as well.
I went over to Jude and pulled her towards me. I bent down and kissed her stomach and then I kissed her forehead and her cheeks, and then her neck. Then I moved onto her arms and then up to her neck. I felt Jude twitch a little bit because she was ticklish on her neck.
"Tommy, stop it." She said laughing. "Please, you're tickling me." I moved my hands and tickled her on her sides. "Tommy" I stopped and she put her shirt over her head. We both laid down on the bed and Jude was lying on my chest. She was asleep as soon as we hit the pillows and I soon followed.
