Okay, once again, I'm sorry! After my recent lack of sleep, I passed out after I got home from work. BUT, here's the next chapter. ENJOY! And keep showing the love, you know I live for it!
- Chapter 19 -
"Oh, really? And what about you? After getting yelled at by the 'slave driver' all day, why would you ever want to come home to me?" He smugly asked. "Because of this..." Jude sweetly replied before once again kissing her husband passionately on the lips.
He pulled her even closer to him as they continued to kiss. As the began to lower themselves back onto the bed Jude's cell phone began to ring to the familiar tune of 'Sexy Sadie'. "Ignore it..." Tommy groaned out more as a statement, than a question. Jude sighed. "I can't, it's Sadie..." she replied, her annoyance clearly evident in her voice. "Fine, tell her we're busy... We'll talk to her later." He grunted with his lips still against Jude's. While sitting up and reaching for her phone Jude huffed "I can't... I promised I'd meet her for lunch and get in some shopping before we head back." She looked at the clock on her phone and spat. "Damn, I was supposed to meet her a half hour ago! She's gonna be pissed. Here, you talk to her. Tell her I left fifteen minutes ago and that I just called looking for her because I couldn't find her." "Okay, but do I say when she asks why she's talking to me and not you on YOUR cell phone?" He asked, a slight hint of disappointment in his voice. Jude, scrambling to get dressed, quickly replied "Tell her I forgot it, and that I'm on my way back here now to get it before I head back down to try and find her again. That'll give me time to get down there." "Okay..." he merely responded as he picked up her cell phone. Before he could answer it, it stopped ringing just as they heard a knock on the door to their suite. "Oh shit!" Jude shrieked. "Hide me!..." She squeaked out before running to the closet. Grabbing her arm to stop her, he softly reassured her. "Relax, Girl. Just tell her you just back up here to get your cell and decided to wait for her here." Almost out of breath, she simply replies "Oh, okay... Open the door." She took a deep gulp before Tommy opened the door.
The door opened to an obviously unamused Sadie leaning on the door frame on her left arm. She angrily stomped her way over to Jude who was almost ducking behind the sliding door that led to the bedroom. As Jude slowly stepped away from the door, she looked like a small child who had been caught with their hand in the cookie jar. With a nervous chuckle she sheepishly greeted her sister. "Ugh.. Hi, Sadie. Look, I..." Before Jude could continue she was cut off by her sister with a hand held up in the air as if to block her worlds. "Shut it! I don't want to hear it. Let's go..." She flatly stated with her left arm raised, pointing towards the door. "Okay" was all Jude could get out before she turned to her husband and gave him a short peck on the lips. He mouthed to her "Good luck!". Before she turned back towards the door, she mouthed back to him "Thanks... I love you!" Just as Tommy was starting to mouth back that he loved her too Sadie rather loudly cleared her throat, causing Jude to rush out of the suite as fast as she could. No matter how tough Jude thought she was, she was always slightly afraid of Sadie. As she had once put it "She may be cute, but she's evil... and surprisingly strong." Tommy simply laughed to himself before closing the door behind the sisters.
Later...
"Sooo... How was he?" Sadie too enthusiastically asked. "Sadie!!!" Was all Jude could exclaim, she was taken off guard by her sister's question. "What?!" Sadie nonchalantly asked, like it wasn't a big deal. "Ummm... I'm sooo not talking to you about this." Jude stated while trying to walk away from Sadie towards some low neck tops that were a few racks away. Naturally, refusing to drop the subject, Sadie followed her. "What's the big deal? You're married now. I'd tell you about Kwest, not that you'd ever ask. We're grown ups... Women talk..." Sadie continued to prod her sister into talking, but Jude wouldn't be so easily swayed "Eww... Sadie. Bad mental image. Besides, don't you already know? You DID date him for like six months." Shaking her head, Sadie quickly answered "But we never did anything. Every time we got close he'd come up with some excuse and run out before I could say anything. I was starting to think his whole 'playboy rep' was some publicity stunt concocted for the press. At least now I know why he wasn't interested..." As she trailed off she playfully bumped into her sister's side. Definitely surprised by her sister's confession, Jude was suddenly grinning from ear to ear, but in her mind she was jumping around and screaming 'THANK GOD!!!'. Trying to regain her composure (and hide her sudden smile), she almost flatly asked "Really? I was so sure you two had... you know. Especially with the way you talked about him." Rolling her eyes, Sadie retorted "Well, it's not like it's something I'm proud of. I wanted everyone to think we had the perfect relationship... Now stop stalling... I want details. How was the infamous Mr. Quincy?" With her last words, Sadie's face brightened back up. Knowing that Sadie obviously wasn't going to let this go anytime soon, she gave in. Grinning she simply stated "In-credible!" She broke the word in half for full effect. Sadie giggled out "Ha! I knew it..." "Granted, I don't have any other experience for comparison, but I can't imagine it being any better. It was just... Wow. He DEFINITELY knows what he's doing." Jude, who just a few minutes before was almost horrified to share the intimate details of her and Tommy's newfound sex life, now found herself nearly bragging about it to her sister.
Back at the hotel...
"A music note?! Where?" Sadie giggled out. Also laughing herself, Jude could barely voice her answer "On his right butt cheek. It's sooo cute... Supposedly, it has some deeper meaning about his music being a personal experience. I'm not quite sure... He wasn't very coherent when he told me the story. I just happened to catch a glimpse while he was sleeping, he woke up when he heard me giggle." "Aww... That's so cute!" Sadie giggled as she and Jude were walking into the newlywed's hotel suite. To their surprise Tommy was still there. He was relaxing on the couch with his left leg propped up over his right leg watching a football game on tv. "Hey girls, back so soon? I figured Sadie would've kept you there till the stores kicked you both out!" He joked. "Ha-ha... Very funny..." Sadie simply replied. Jude walked over and quickly kissed her husband before asking "So, what are you doing here? I figured you would be out exploring Las Vegas or hanging out with Kwest or something. Who would've thought you watched American sports?" "Well, when I was touring with 'Boyz Attack' there wasn't anything to do on the tour bus but watch tv, so I ended up watching a lot of football. I didn't understand it much at first, but after a while, I really started to get into it. I try to follow it, but I don't really have much time to watch anymore." He shrugged. "Okay... whatever you say. But if I ever find you topless, painted up in team colors, we need to have a talk." She chuckled before kissing him again. In a sarcastic tone, he softly joked "Okay..." as he turned back to the tv, but the girls were already halfway to the bedroom to put away all of the clothes that Sadie talked Jude into buying.
As the girls were finishing putting away the vast amount of bra's, panties, teddies and nightgowns that Sadie talked her into, Jude reluctantly questioned "Sadie, is all this really necessary? I've always preferred cotton, you know, choosing comfort?" Rolling her eyes, Sadie answered "No, it's not NECESSARY. But it's always a good idea... Look, I'm sure he's totally thrilled just to have you period, but these are guaranteed to make his eyes pop out of his head. Now wouldn't that be fun?" She finished in a sing-song voice. Sighing, Jude, answered "Yeah, I guess... It just feels weird discussing this with you." Rolling her eyes again, then looking at her watch, Sadie quickly exclaimed "Shit, I gotta go. Kwest SHOULD be waiting for me. We're supposed to meet for dinner. Don't worry, we'll hang out tomorrow before we all head back home. See ya later, Sis." She finished by leaning in and kissing her sister on the cheek, before turning to leave. "Sadie..." Jude called out. As her sister turned back to her momentarily, Jude shrugged and shyly spoke "Thanks for... well, everything. I don't know what I'd do without you." Sadie just smiled at her sister as she turned and left.
As Jude put away the last few articles of clothing, she thought to herself "How in the hell did we carry all of this around all day? Sadie must have super strength when it comes to shopping! Thank god I brought the extra suitcase to take it all home." Smiling to herself, she walked back to the living room where she found Tommy was still glued to the tv. Plopping on the couch beside him she asked "So, what do ya wanna do now?" Leaning in, he smugly answered "I can think a few things..." He kissed her passionately before slowly pulling away. "God, I missed you today." he softly stated as he pulled her back to him. "Aww... I missed you too. You know... You were all we talked about today." she sweetly replied. "Oh really?" he mused. "Yeah, Sadie just wouldn't shut about you! You know, she just can't wait to see that tattoo of yours..." Jude joked before kissing him again. "You didn't?!" He worriedly questioned. "Sorry... She drug it out of me!" She shrugged while trying to hide her amusement. "Oh, you're gonna pay for that one, Harrison... I mean, Quincy. Sorry... Still getting used to that." "Yeah, it's Quincy now. And don't you forget it!" She exclaimed while poking him in the chest, before quickly pecking him on the lips and running away. "You are so in for it..." He shouted while chasing after her.
