Chapter 11: Different
Dream number five was an interesting dream that led to an interesting conversation.
Jude sat on the floor of Studio A with her guitar in her lap and a notepad of new music sitting on the floor in front of her.
Tommy and Sadie came into the studio and sat down next to her.
Jude smiled up at them. "You know who it is, don't you?"
"Yeah, we do," Sadie replied.
"It's a real shocker…" Tommy added.
"I know, you guys would've never guessed that my father did it," Jude answered.
"You knew all along? How?"
"And why didn't you tell us?"
"I'm a spirit; I know everything. And I thought you guys needed to figure it out on your own."
"Wait…" Tommy paused. "You know everything?"
It struck Sadie what he was talking about. "Even the…?"
Jude nodded. "I know about your guys' kiss."
"Jude, you know that I'll always love you…"
"And you know that as your big sister I would never hurt you intentionally."
Jude smiled. "I know guys, I think it's great."
"What?" They shouted in unison.
"I thought you guys understood me."
"Obviously not…" Sadie joked.
"Don't joke," Tommy demanded.
"I want you guys to move on with your lives. And if that means you guys dating, then so be it. I want you to be happy."
Tommy shook his head. "I'm not going to be happy without you, Jude!"
"Don't say that…" Jude had a smile on her face.
"Why not speak the truth?"
"Because I know that you will find happiness with someone else. And I don't want you hung up on me while you're trying to date other girls."
"Who says I will want to date other girls?"
"C'mon, Tommy. You're Little Tommy Q. from Boyz Attack; I know you'll date other girls."
"Jude, don't say that! I want you and I always will!"
"Tommy, don't ruin your life because of me."
And with a yell, Tommy woke up from the dream. He grabbed his phone from the bedside stand and dialed Sadie's number. "Hey…"
"Hey, Tommy, did you have the dream too?"
"Oh yeah, what a dream…"
"I can't believe she knows…"
"I can't believe she knew about your dad…"
"I can't believe any of this…"
"I can't believe she wants me to date other people…"
"I can understand where she's coming from on that."
"What?"
"You can't spend your whole life thinking about what might have been. You have to get out there and live it up."
"I'm not sure…"
"I am, Jude would want you to be happy."
"I know."
"But let's make a deal…"
"What deal?"
"That you live it up with someone besides me."
"Right, I mean, you're Jude's sister and that would just be rude to her."
"So we agree?"
"Definitely."
"See you around."
