Chapter 5: Dream of me.

Tommy tossed and turned in his sleep, her face and voice haunting him.

Miles away, Sadie shared the torturous dream.

Jude sat in G Major working on a new song. She strummed her guitar quietly and hummed to herself.

Sadie and Tommy entered G Major at the same time and walked over to her. "Hi, Jude," Sadie said sitting next to her sister.

"Hey, Sades," she replied. She looked up to Tommy and smiled. "Hi, Tom."

He hugged her and sat down on her other side. "Hey, Jude."

She set guitar down in front of her. "I'm gone now, I'm guessing."

"What are you talking about?" Sadie asked

"I'm dead now, aren't I?"

He paused. "Yes, you are."

"Just as well. My time to go."

"No, it wasn't," Sadie replied.

"You were 17-years-old," Tommy added.

"But this is for the best."

"For the best?" He repeated.

"Yes, for the best."

"I don't get it, how is it for the best?" Sadie asked.

"For you, I'm not so sure. But for Tommy," she paused and looked over to him, "this is his chance to live."

"I don't understand…" He replied.

"Now that I'm gone, you can experience life like you were supposed to. You can go places without worrying about leaving me behind; you can date other people, instead of waiting for me to be old enough."

"But-" He stammered.

Jude looked over to Sadie. "And Sades, you don't have to worry about Mom and Dad letting me get away with things now. You can be an only child."

"Jude!" Sadie screeched out of shock.

She stood up and walked towards the entrance of G Major.

The other two stood up and tried to walk towards her. They couldn't move, they couldn't go after her.

Jude looked at the two with a smile and held up her left hand, showing Tommy that she was wearing the wedding ring he had placed on her hand after she died. "Good-bye guys, I'll miss you." She turned back around and walked out of G Major.

Sadie sat up from her dream with a scream. She pulled her knees up to her chest and hugged them as tightly as she could.

"Sadie, are you okay?" Victoria Harrison asked, peeking into the room.

"Yeah, just a bad dream," Sadie replied.

Victoria left the room.

Sadie grabbed the phone on her bed-side stand and dialed Tommy's number.

"Hello?" Tommy said, surprisingly wake.

"Tom, it's Sadie. Did I wake you?"

"No, I had a horrible dream. I can't get back to sleep."

"Me too, that's why I called. It was about Jude."

"In G Major?"

"Yeah, and we came in…"

"And she began asking if she was dead?"

"Yeah, how do you know?"

"That was my dream too. What does it mean?"

"I'm not totally sure."

"The wedding ring on her hand was the one I put on her after she died, so I think that that means, she will never forget me."

"That I get. Maybe the dream means that she wants us to keep living our lives. No turning back, just looking to the future. For you that would mean dating other people and for me that would mean… I don't get that part."

"I don't either."

"Maybe we're not supposed get it. Maybe she'll tell us in the next dream."

"Sadie, I don't think there's going to be a next dream. Didn't you see how she said good-bye at the end? There most likely won't be a next dream."

"I hope there is, I want to understand this better. Thank you, Tommy, I really needed to talk to you."

"Anytime, Sadie." They both hung up and fell back into an uneasy sleep.

AN: Wow, strong message from Jude. What does it mean? Only she knows. Anyways, R&R!
