"Jude what's the hold up, you have to be on in 10...hurry it up!" Shay said through the door knocking on it a few times then turning and walking away he didn't know what was up with that girl the past couple of days she had been really out of it. Jade sat on the counter in the bathroom holding the small white strip in her hand and watching her watch, ten minutes seemed like an eternity right now. She watched as the second hand on her watch slowly ticked towards the twelve she counted down softly as it approached "5...4...3...2...1...positive!" she said softly with a few tears rolling down her cheeks. "Hey Jude you in there?" She heard Tommy's voice and quickly threw the test in the trash can. "Yeah I'm coming out now." she said wiping the tears off her face and standing up. She opened the door and saw him leaning on the door frame.
He wiped a few of the tears off of her face then looked at her with concerned eyes "What's wrong?" he asked her softly. She just shook her head and smiled up at him. "Nothing, It's nothing." she said with a nod trying to reassure herself and Tommy at the same time. She laid her head against his chest and wrapped her arms around his midde. He hugged her back but what caught his eye in the bathroom made his skin crawl. Sitting on the counter was the box to a home pregnancy test. "I'm gonna go ahead and go, I'll see you after." she said slipping out of his reach and heading towards where Darius was standing.
"Yeah ok." Tommy mumbled after she had already walked away. His head was spinning now, Jude, pregnant, him the father, while they where on tour. He walked into the bathroom and shut the door behind him. He looked at the box and read over it then set it back down. He searched around in search for the actual test. He was about to give up hope when he glanced over at the trash can and saw it laying on top. He picked it up and looked at the results then looked at the back of the box...it was positive...Jude was pregnant...and he was going to be a father.
Hearing the sound of Jude's voice singing 'skin' brought him back down to earth. He stuck the box in the trash can and moved it around so it was underneath stuff and no one could find it. He stuck the test in his coat pocket then headed out of the bathroom door. He waited behind stage for Jude to finsih her part of the show. They where going to be having a long talk afterwords. How could this have happened...one time, her first time, and she was pregnant. Talk about bad luck for the two of them; and to top it off it happened while she was on her first tour. Jude had been having a pretty shitty hand dealt to her lately at home and a baby wouldn't help that any...a baby would also put both there jobs in jeperdy. Hell it put his freedom in jeperdy he could go to prison for this.
Hearing the song end he looked out a Jude, she was still a child herself. She was in no position to have one, but how could he tell that to her. He couldn't even convince himself that it was such a bad thing right now. He wasn't completely against the idea infact he kind of liked it. It would be their own little family..but to think of all they'd be throwing away made it hard to consider it a blessing.
