Thanks you guys again for all your reviews. Sorry this chapter is also kind of long but your in for some interesting reading as the passion gets more intese between Tommy and Jude. Will they handle it? Or fold under pressure? You will just have to read and find out...
Later on that night Jude was all alone in her house and she was sitting in her living room trying to watch T.V. She couldn't concentrate on it though. She had other things on her mind.
God, why cant I stop thinking about him, for two minutes? Why is it so hard? she thought as she shut off the T.V. and grabbed her guitar. She started to play the beginning of a song.
My mind is so confused…
I feel out of breath
Like I'm being choked
choked to death
My heart was so tattered and used
Why? Why cant I
Why cant I breathe without you
You, you make me feel
you make me feel
so lost without you
"Ugh, that's it!" she was mad because she couldn't stop thinking, dreaming, or even singing about the one guy she wasn't supposed to be with. This aggravated her.
"Jude, he's not for you. He needs to be with someone his own age! Why don't you just get that through your head right now!" she said to herself.
He doesn't care about some stupid little 16 year old. Does he? Does Tommy actually care about me? No, he cant. It's impossible. He told me to pretend like nothing ever happened between us. That has to mean something. Doesn't it? she thought to herself.
She was sick of thinking about it. She had to get out. She would go and grab a cup of coffee at her favorite coffee shop and maybe listen to some music. She had to get him out of her mind. She ran upstairs and grabbed her coat off her bed and shut off the lights and went to go out the door and-
"Hey, Jude." there stood Tommy with his hand up like he was about to knock on the door.
"Oh, hey. What are you doing here?" she said confusion written all over her face.
"Oh, I was just, uh, coming to see you. Going somewhere?" he started to sweat. Not again! he thought as he wiped his forehead.
"Yeah, I was just about to go to a coffee shop I know downtown. I gotta unwind, you know." she said as she noticed him sweating. Why is he so nervous? she thought.
"Oh, well, uh….ummm…" Tommy didn't know what to say. I cant just invite myself, what am I gonna do? Will she invite me to go? I wish she would say something.
"Do you, uh, wanna go with me?" she hoped he would say yes.
"Oh, that would be great, I would love to." he said. Thank god she said something.
"Ok. Lets go." she put her coat on and walked with him over to the car.
"So, how was your lunch with Jamie?" he said frowning. He never did like that kid. He was too close to Jude.
"It was okay, I guess. I wasn't very hungry. What about yours?" she said with a smirk on her face.
"Oh, that's a long story." he said as they walked into the coffee shop. It was karaoke night. This always made Jude laugh when she watched it.
They got their coffee and sat down and started talking. A few cups later and they were laughing and having a good time.
"So, let me get this straight. She said you don't deserve her." Jude laughed
"Yeah, and then I said, 'Maybe I don't deserve you'. and that's when she said 'Screw you' and threw water in my face. I mean who does that these days? Come on now." he said with a smile on his face.
"Why was she getting so mad? What were you doing?" Jude said clueless to why the whole fight started in the first place.
"Well, it was because I was looking at you." he said this with that sweet smile on his face that almost made Jude melt when she saw it.
"Oh." That was all she could say.
"Yeah." he said trying to figure out what she was thinking about.
Well this song goes out to all those guys out there, desperate for a second chance. And girls, sometimes it is okay to let them back in. So here we go…
The lights dim in the room and the music starts to play One Wish by Ray J
Jude closed her eyes and listened to the music. She loved this song. And she also thought it was rather appropriate. She then opened them because she felt someone touching her hand.
Tommy had been looking at her and he grabbed her hand. She just went with it as they scooted closer and closer as the music played in the dim coffee shop.
And I can't lie I'm missing you
Listen and don't trip
We gonna need a bottle with a genie in it
Here's My Wish List
First One:
I would create a heart changing love
Second One:
I'll take your life and lead on
Third One:
I Don't Need A Lot of wishes Cause
I'll be okay if I get one
If I had one wishwe would be best friends
Love will never end
It would just begin
If I had one wish you would be my boo
Promise to love you
Trust me I'll trust you
If I had one wish We would run away
Making love all day
Have us a baby
If I had one wish I'd make you my whole life
Can you be my wife?
Make it right this time if I had one wish
Jude just sat there looking into Tommy's eyes and him looking back in hers. He could help but love her. She understood him. He understood her. They were perfect for each other. For that moment age and all the other boundaries didn't matter. It was just them and the song.
Tommy leaned in and cupped her face with one hand and placed the other on her back protectively. They didn't care who was watching. It was only them.
Then as the moment intensified he leaned in and met his lips with hers. It was soft, at first, and then becoming more and more passionate. They were both lost in the kiss and it was like they were the only two people in the room.
Then as the lights came back on they were still left looking into each others eyes. Jude realized what happened as soon as the song ended. She then broke the gaze and looked down and scooted away.
"Ok. What just happened?" she said confused wondering what was going on behind those beautiful blue eyes of his.
"I don't know, Jude, I uh… I don't know." he said looking down trying to figure out what to say.
"We kissed, Tommy. Why did we kiss?" she said still looking at him in confusion.
"Do you think I know, Jude? I am just as confused as you are, okay?" he said eyes still looking at his hands he then looked up to look in her green eyes.
"It was just the song. It didn't mean anything. Let's just forget about it." she couldn't believe she was saying this. But what was she supposed to do? They couldn't be together. It was pretty much against the rules. Not just with her parents, but with life.
They left the coffee shop and he drove Jude back to her house. The car ride was the tensest quiet Jude had ever heard in her life.
Why did he kiss me? He was the one who said we couldn't be together. Why is he changing now? I don't understand. Jude thought.
Why did I kiss her? God, I really screwed up this time. I'm a hypocrite. I said I didn't mean to hurt her and what do I do? I kiss her, again. But it means something to me. It wasn't just the song. It was me and her. It was our feelings. God, I wish I could tell her how I feel. How much I love her. And I miss kissing her. He thought. He tried hard to concentrate on the road. It was pouring rain outside.
Sorry to leave you guys with sort of a cliff hanger thingy but I got writers block. Please read and review! I love hearing peoples opinions.
