A/N: Sorry it has been so long since I have updated. Stress of the family holiday gave me writers block. Oh and a little heads up to Supposed Rockstar and everybody who gave me such great reviews. There might be a little drama coming up, but nothing like you think. It has to happen for the story to end the way it does.

The sun had just started to rise and peek its way into Tommy's bedroom window. It wasn't like the weather the night before. The rain was gone. The rays warmed his skin as he stirred and shifted onto his other side and reached out his arm only to find an empty spot on his bed. She was gone.

"Jude? Jude, where are you?" he then shot up out of his bed. He couldn't have lost her again. Not after… everything. He didn't bother putting on a shirt as he looked around the room for any sign of her. He found nothing.

As he walked out into the hallway a smile crept on his face as he heard the shower running and a sweet voice emerging from the bathroom.

Time to be your only one
to almost be you're way too young
Time to crash into the sun
Time to be your 21

His favorite song. The one he truly knew was all about him. Being that she did change the lyrics for him. He smiled again and walked into the kitchen and made some coffee. She then emerged from the bathroom about fifteen minutes later wearing her now dry clothing from last night and wringing the water out of her hair. She walked over and sat down at the table.

"Hey, did you sleep okay? I hope I didn't wake you…" she said giving him a glowing look.

"Oh, no. I was worried when I woke up and you weren't there. I thought you up and left on me." he said smiling back at her.

"No, of course not. I would never just up and leave without a goodbye. Especially after…you know…" she trailed of smiling slightly.

"Yeah…I know." he smirked at her and sat down across from her at the table with two coffee cups in his hand. He handed her one and then opened the paper.

"Thanks." she said taking a sip and looking at him, even though his face was buried in the paper. She half-smiled and looked away.

"So, uh, about last night…" he trailed off putting down the paper and hoping she would finish the sentence.

"Yeah…uh…I don't know…" she looked at him, not liking how this conversation was going.

Did last night mean anything to him? God, he'll never change will he? If he wants me to pretend like it never hap-

Her thinking was interrupted by him clearing his throat.

"I, uh, I don't want it to be a mistake, Jude." he looked at her with seriousness in his eyes. "I lost you once to lying about how I really felt and I cant, I wont, do it again. I think if we try, we can really make this work. I love you, Jude."

"I love you too, Tommy."

Maybe things would actually work for them. Maybe they were really going to be okay this time. Just maybe, miracles do really happen.

"What time is it?" Jude said looking at the clock on his microwave.

"Oh, almost eleven. Why?" he said looking down at his watch. He didn't want her to leave.

"Oh, crap. Mom's coming home today and Sadie will probably be home checking on me and if I'm not there, well let's just say there goes my life." she hurriedly got up and went and grabbed her jacket off of the couch, it was still a little damp, but she didn't care. She then turned to find Tommy's hands around her waist.

"You're leaving?" he said as he kissed her lips softly.

"I mmm have to. Sadie mmm will mmmm kill me if I don't show my face soon. Mmmmm." she could hardly get any word in, he kept pulling her in for little kisses.

"I don't want you to. Stay with me. You can make something up. I was gonna make you breakfast. Just stay." he pulled her in one last time but this kiss was more passionate. He then took off her jacket and wrapped his arms around her. She then gave up. She placed her hands on his bare chest, sending shivers down his spine. She then moved them to around his neck. But then suddenly pulled away.

"God, why is it taking everything I have to get me to leave here?" She said with her arms still wrapped around his neck.

"Because you don't really want to, that's why." he smirked at her as she stuck out her tongue and went to put on her jacket again.

"Well, fine then." he pouted.

"How about we do something tonight? I'll call you around 6:30? We can go see a movie or something?" she said looking at him with a smile on her face.

"Okay. Sounds good. I'll give you a ride home. Just let me get a shirt." he said as he went back and put on a white tank top. He knew this would make Jude drool and that is exactly what he was looking for.

She just stood there with her mouth gaped open and it soon closed when he came up and quickly kissed her on the lips.

"Okay, lets go, Romeo." they left the building and got into his car.

They didn't do much talking on the way to Jude's house. The next thing they knew they were sitting in Jude's driveway and he was kissing her goodbye.

"Well, I will call you later then?" she said getting out of the car. But not before leaning over for another kiss.

"Okay, I'll talk to you then, okay?" he kissed her back and smiled.

"Okay, bye."

"I love you, Jude."

"I love you, too."

And with that she walked up to her door and turned around and smiled at him before disappearing into her house. He smiled back and waited until she was inside to drive away.

He actually felt good about last night. He had no regrets. He couldn't stop smiling the whole way back to his house. He was truly and deeply in love.

Jude walked in to find no one was inside her house. Which somewhat made her happy. She needed time to think about last night.

He doesn't think it was a mistake. He loves me. Tom Quincy finally loves me.

And with that she went up to her room to change her clothes. She was finally in love and happy. And the best part. Someone loved her back.

You go through life looking for the one person that truly makes you happy. And she had found that person who was there all along. He just needed time to see it. And now he did.

But too bad things cant always be sunny, she didn't know that soon, there would be a storm of another kind…

Well hope you guys liked the chapter. Please R&R. There's more to come… :)
