disclaimer I do not own the fosters
Jude was sitting in class not really paying attention to anything being said as he was thinking of Conner who was living with his mom now. He was sad not just because he was gone but that they had also broken up. He was brought out of his stupor when he was hit in the head by a paper ball. He looked up to see everyone staring at him.
"Glad you could rejoin us, can you answer the question or would you like me to ask it again?" asked the teacher.
"I don't even know what class I'm in" said Jude without hesitation.
"Fair but I have to give you detention" said the teacher.
"Oh well" said Jude.
"Please pay attention this will be on the test" said the teacher.
"Whatever" mumbled Jude.
As the teacher went back to talking Jude pretended to listen as he thought about Jesus and his new job. He found it odd that Jesus got shot and ended up with a job where as Callie had been beaten and raped causing her to fall in a coma that he while didn't have proof he was sure Robert was lying about her condition he just wasn't sure why he thought that. He thought back to when Stef had been shot where Callie told him the Fosters were lucky and wondered when if ever Callie would get some of it. Jude was pulled out of his thoughts when the bell rang he quickly got up trying to figure out if he would go to class or skip it when he remembered the book he and Timothy had discussed and quickly headed to Timothy's room.
Timothy was at his desk grading papers when his door burst open. Startled he looked up to find Jude already at his desk.
"Um can I help you?" asked Timothy.
"I was wondering if you heard anything about the books yet?" asked Jude.
"Oh yes I just received a box a few hours ago from the publisher" Said Timothy pulling a box out from under his desk.
Jude opened the box and pulled out a book. He was surprised by many of the things he saw on the cover.
"This has Callie and I listed as coauthors" Said Jude.
"They thought a brother sister duo would sell better" explained Timothy.
"That's kinda stupid I mean if you tell people a girl in a coma wrote then people would buy just to check it out and besides I never wrote a thing in her journals" said Jude.
"That would have been better" said Timothy.
Jude just shook his head as he walked over to a desk and started reading. It was not the first time he had read any of Callie's Journals but it was the first time he noticed the little snippets of things he said. Callie had loved him so much that she had immortalized for her to remember but he had gotten this published so she would be remembered even when everyone else was gone. Jude was brought out of his thoughts when Timothy cleared his throat.
"Jude I just received a note saying you got detention" said Timothy.
"Yeah I wasn't paying attention to my teacher so he gave me detention...why did you get the note?" asked Jude.
"Welcome to detention your early" said Timothy.
"Whatever" muttered Jude.
Jude had his bag with him as he carried it with him while in school so he pulled out his headphones and turned on some music. He also grabbed a notebook and started drawing. He stopped in surprise when one of Brandon's songs started to play. It was the Jaded Princess the song he wrote after Callie's attack.
In the night a silent cry fills the void
as the princess stands her ground
taking the full might of a drunken oaf.
Alone she stands in the vain hope
that the oaf will forget his true wrath.
Falling to the ground in pain but
defying him pleasure she smiles
inward knowing the oaf has forgotten the
princes.
Another victory upon her body
in the eyes of the oaf, another bruise
for her collection is all she see's as her worth.
Alas even the princes has forgotten
why she defies them all
seeing her as the monster even
as a true monster arises in their midst.
With words of honey and touch of fire
he breaks the princess in ways
far worse then she ever thought
possible.
Time passes with no way to heal
the princess loses more then just
her body as her heart corrodes
and her soul fades.
But along came two queen's
one quiet and caring
the other strong and bold
but the quite one becomes bold
upon seeing the battered princess.
Taking her in the queens reach in deep
and pluck forth notes of hope and love
restoring the jaded princess in ways
she will never comprehend and all was good
until the monster returned.
After listening to the song Jude played the Hopeful King then grabbed a new piece of paper and drew some lines then began writing down ideas for stories involving a fallen hero and a monster that tries to kill them.
