This it, Jude's finally back, and what's going to happen next? I have no clue, Just kidding I what exactly is going to happen. Hope you enjoy this chapter. I don't own Instant Star, or Lifehouse or the characters or the song "Blind" Enjoy!
Jude was contemplating listening to Tommy's new song, it had a few glitches but Tommy only started working on it a few days before Jude notified Kwest, so it wasn't completely finished, mixing and the music wasn't exactly perfect just yet. After watching the previewed movie Jude decided to give it a listen. His voice filled through her headphones and brought a smile to her face.
"Blind" by: Lifehouse
"I was young but I wasn't naive
I watched helpless as you turned around to leave
and still I have the pain I have to carry
a past so deep that even you could not bury if you tried
after all this time
I never thought we'd be here
never thought we'd be here
when my love for you was blind
but I couldn't make you see it
couldn't make you see it
that I loved you more than you'll ever know
a part of me died when I let you go
I would fall asleep
only in hopes of dreaming
that everything would be like is was before
but nights like this it seems are slowly fleeting
they disappear as reality is crashing to the floor
after all this time
I never thought we'd be here
never thought we'd be here
when my love for you was blind
but I couldn't make you see it
couldn't make you see it
that I loved you more than you'll ever know
a part of me died when I let you go
after all this time
would you ever want to leave it
maybe you could not believe it
that my love for you was blind
but I couldn't make you see it
couldn't make you see it
that I loved you more than you will ever know
a part of me died when I let you go
and I loved you more than you'll ever know
a part of me dies when I let you go"
Jude wiped away the tears that came to her eyes, she never realized how much she truly hurt Tommy by leaving. She took a deep breathe and repeated to herself,
"Jude, you can do this you came this far you can't cope out now"
As the signal for the seat belt fasten sign came on, the Pilot informed the passengers.
"Welcome back to Toronto, we arrived early I hope you guys have a safe and wonderful flight and thanks for choosing Kite Runner Airlines (made up)"
Jude finally waited for this moment for the past year, she wasn't sure why she was so happy to see Tommy, he wasn't the one who left it was her, and she knew it and she wasn't sure if Tommy would ever be able to forgive her. As the passengers started to unload their bags Jude got up grabbed her one of her suitcases and walked off the plane and towards the bag pick up, seeing her family there waiting for her.
"Jude Honey, we're so glad you're back, we've missed you so much"
"Mom you guys saw me six months ago for my birthday" Her mother spoke with tears in her eyes. Jude was quickly pulled into a big family group hug, her mother, father, and even Sadie were there.
"Hey Sis, how was Colorado?"
"Sadie, it was great, Jake was really nice, I can't believe you two have kept in touch after all of these years, didn't he move away like four years ago?"
"Yeah, so we talk all the time, I'm even thinking about flying out there with you when you go back."
"If I go back Sadie, I came home for a reason"
"Or someone" Jude's father chimed in.
"Dad what are you talking about?" Jude looked at her father. What was he talking about? He can't possibly know about her feelings for Tommy, and if he did does that mean her mother and Sadie know also?
"Jude, honey the morning you left Tommy came looking for you at the house and he left before anyone of us could speak to him, when I called the studio to talk to him, he didn't show up."
"Oh" was all Jude could say. She told himthat she was leaving did he still think thatshe was going to be there the next morning.
"Dad, I don't know what to say"
"Honey, don't say anything, your mother and I have always known that there was something hidden between you and Tom, we just didn't want to see it because, wellwe thought the age difference was far to big, and with him being in and out of the tabloids."
"Yeah, dad, mom I know I've seen the magazines." Jude trailed off, because she did she saw Tommy's face on them every time he was out trying to have a little fun, but she never believed all the lies they said about him having a new flavor of the week.
"Jude, You look great, it's been six months but you look amazing, do you know how hard it was for me to lie to Tom when we were leaving for the week of your birthday to go on a "family vacation?"
Sadie spoke. Jude already knew that Tommy had been spending time around her house, Sadie told her that one night he just showed up asking to see her room, her spent the night in her room and cried, he thought Sadie couldn't hear him but she did, she felt guilty lying to Tommy about not knowing where Jude went and so didn't her parents.
Stuart and Tommy have come to have a great friendship like father and son relationship also, because Tommy didn't have a great one with his own family, because he was so young when he started Boyz Attack his family never really forgave him for walking out on his education to join a boy band and everything he loved.
"Yes, I know Sadie I just wonder how he took it all? Do you think he'll even want to see me again?" Jude asked afraid of the answer to her own sentence.
"Jude, honey listen to me. I've talked to Tom a lot since you left, we've built a friendship, honey he cares a lot about you, he was really torn when you decided to leave, he knew me and your mother knew where you went, and he didn't hesitate to ask every time he saw us, but we had to lie we had to tell him what you told us and then when he started getting the calls.." Stuart trailed off.
He knew Jude wanted to see Tommy over the year she left, but he didn't know how torn Tommy would be when he started getting the mysterious phone calls from her not knowing it was her.
"Dad, Mom, I called him yesterday, I said hello and then hung up, I don't think I blocked the number because a few minutes later his cell phone number showed up on the caller ID I was to afraid to answer so I let the answering machine get it."
"Oh, Jude you didn't"
"Didn't what Sadie"
"You let him listen to the answering machine, the one with you and Jake's voice on it, I can only imagine what's going through his head." Sadie shook her head, she knew Tommy he'd think that Jude would have moved on and found some to fill his place in her heart.
"Oh Sadie Tommy's not like that, he knows I love him right?" looking from her parents faces to her sister's "Right?"
"Jude, honey every time we've talked to Tom, we always left out the part where you told us to tell him how you felt about him, we felt it was right that he had heard it from you."
"MOM!" Jude yelled and looking down at her feet. "Well I guess you guys are right, now can we go home, I'm tired and hungry and I need to go the studio later, to see Georgia and Kwest"
"And Tommy" her father chimed in with a smile on his face
"We'll see that's if he's even there"
"Oh Jude he's there, that's the only other place he's been, and we know why he's there so much"
" I know, I know can we just go?"
Tommy sat in Studio A, the studio him and Jude had recorded so many beautiful songs, where he records his own music now. He yawns and stretches and looks at the clock
"8:00pm and I wrote a new song, I wonder if it'd be to late to start recording" He got from his sits with the lyrics scribbled on a piece of notebook in his hand and ventured out to find Kwest. He walked through the halls and found Kwest in the kitchen pouring himself another cup of coffee still looking happy.
"Hey, Kwest got a minute?" Tommy asked while grabbing himself a cup to pour himself a cup of coffee also.
"T, for you I have more than a minute."
"I have another song"
"T, really that's amazing, may I ask if this is another Jude inspirational?"
"Kwest, I don't get it, she's been gone for a year and she still gives me inspiration, I thought this part of my life was over"
"Tom man listen to me, if anyone would have gotten you back into creating a new solo album, it'd be Jude, I know it and you do too, I just wish she was here to see what you've been up to this month" Kwest said, knowing that Jude's plane had already landed it was only moments and the matter of the right timing for her to show up here and see Tommy.
For some reason today Kwest made sure to unpack and setup everything Tommy needed to record a new song, he didn't know why but it just felt like that Tom was going to need it today, and he was right.
"Yeah, me too, but she made her decision she wanted to leave and she left" Tommy said hanging his head. He wished for Jude to be the one that stayed her late at night with him coming up with new ideas for where he should take his music and for her to be the first one to listen to his new songs.
"I know Tom, she left and it still hurt, but you know she'd be proud of you for taking this new challenge"
Tommy smiled at his friends sentence, he knew Jude would be proud of him she was so happy when she brought the idea of "Frozen" back to him, he wanted to pursue it at sometime he just didn't know when and the fact that he didn't have inspiration at the time was another reason why he didn't pick up the music again a year and a half ago.
"Yeah, So Kwest would you mind if we started recording it tonight I just don't feel like going home right now."
"Yeah man, but you know what tomorrow is?" Kwest said smiling knowing Tommy hated his birthdays they were just another reminder of Jude
"Yeah, Kwest I know big 25 can't wait" Tommy said sarcastically.
"At least you get the day of G, made me work"
"Duh we were wrapping up Jude's second album everyone had to work" Tommy said to him with a laugh in his voice.
"Oh yeah, I forgot, ok so what studio do you want to do this in."
"Do you even have to ask?"
"Right so, Studio A."
"Yeah man lead the way."
Jude and her have driven home helped her unpack and they all sat down to have a quiet and happy dinner, when Jude decided she would go take a nap. When she woke up it was around 8:15 and she decided it was now or never, she got herself out of her bed took a shower and put on new clothes. After about a half an hour (8:45) Jude made her way down stairs.
"Hey mom?"
"Yeah honey, we're in the living room watching a movie"
"Oh well that's good I was wondering if I could take the car to the studio."
"Yes, sure just be careful don't crash it, and while your driving don't answer your phone"
"Ok, mom Thank you" Jude then laughed to herself.
Her mother had always made sure her and Sadie knew not to answer their phones while driving, because that upon driving itself was a major distraction. Jude found her mother's keys to her car and walked out the front door making sure she locked it behind her, because she had no idea when she was coming home.
She drove for what seemed like 100 miles until she reached the studio. She smiled to herself Kwest was right, him and Tommy where still there. She could tell because of course, Tommy's blue viper was parked in one of the last spots closest to the doors and Kwest's Jeep Wrangler was right next to his. She slowly pulled up to Kwest's car and shut it off.
She took a deep breathe, and unbuckled herself and opened the door, she got out of the car making sure she closed and locked the doors. She made her way to the front doors where is was labeled. "G-Major" She smiled to herself and opened them and vanished into the studio.
