Part 26

"That was unbelievable Jude". Tommy stated sleepily as he leaned back against the chair he was in at the dinner table.

Jude grinned at him cheekily. "I know right"?

Tommy opened one eye and looked over at her. She was sitting across from him with Jessie curled up asleep in her lap. She had a little bit of ketchup from the burgers she'd made on her cheek. She looked so cute and innocent. Tommy's heart fell. He actually felt the moment that his heart became no longer his. In that one moment of silence where she sat curled up with his small niece he'd lost his heart. It was hers and she didn't even know it. He'd get her. If he had to hog tie her and throw her over his shoulder he'd get her.

A voice brought him back to reality "Where'd you go Quincy"? Tommy just smiled "I was just thinking that I need to get the little one here to bed. We have a really busy day tomorrow." He said pointing to Jessie.

Jude frowned "I totally forgot about that appointment with the lawyers. I can go with you. If you want. I mean for support. I'm not trying to be rude and like invite myself. It's totally your deal I just thought since I wasn't doing anything and maybe you'd need someone to watch Jessie." Jude realized she was babbling like a moron and quickly put a hand over her mouth.

Tommy smiled at her. She was so cute when she was flustered "Thanks Jude. I know what you mean and thanks. I'd love for you to be there. You might actually make this day something other than horrible".

Jude tossed and turned for an hour before she finally gave up on sleep. She'd had a song building up inside her head for the past week. She was afraid to write though. When Tommy had left he'd taken her inspiration with him. She hadn't written a real hit since he'd left. Now that he was back she was afraid that she still wouldn't be able to write great music. What if it wasn't Tommy? What if there was something wrong with her?

She picked up her guitar, a pen, and a piece of paper. She could only put off the inevitable for so long. It was time to move forward.

Tommy had been having a nightmare about a faceless man who was stalking Jude. Tommy was with Jude but when he turned away for a moment the man grabbed Jude and took off in a car with her. Tommy was chasing them in his car when the car they had been driving in suddenly overturned throwing both the man and Jude from the car. That was when Tommy had bolted up right in bed. He was covered in sweat and tears. It took him a moment to hear the soft melody coming from the guest bedroom.

"Don't break my heart"

"Don't walk away"

"Don't leave me lonely, running in place"

"Waited so long, to be here right now"

"Sometimes things work out, don't ask me how"

"Don't break my heart"

Jude's soulful voice filled the air. She was lost inside the song and hadn't noticed Tommy standing in the doorway.

"It's beautiful Jude". Tommy's voice broke the silence so smoothly that Jude jumped. A small gasp escaped her lips before she could control it.

"Sorry did I wake you"?
