Uhh...Chapter 7: )
Jude pulled away after a few moments. She looked at Tommy. "Tommy…" Jude looked down at her feet, then back at Tommy. Turning around, she pulled on her jacket. "I…I…I can't do this Tommy. Not again! I got hurt way too much. Every time something happens between us…something good…it's followed by something bad." Tommy looked at her confused. What was she talking about? "Jude…what? Wait! What are you talking about?" Jude stopped and looked at Tommy. Then she began to explain. "I kiss you lightly on the lips the first day we met, you kiss my sister because I'm too young. My sixteenth birthday, Shay breaks up with me, and you kiss me, then tell me it never happened…then I find out my dad is having an affair. When things die down and I fall for you again, you get back with my sister. Then you go to Europe with her…then you CHEAT on her! Then, you finally come to your senses, tell me you love me. You kiss me and say you'll never leave me. And I believed you Tommy! I believed! Then you go and kiss your ex-wife, I almost sleep with Speed and lose the only good thing in my life because I'm too scared to face the consequences!" Tommy thought back to all the times he had hurt Jude. She was right…he had hurt her one too many. "I understand why you're scared Jude…" a tear rolled down his cheek, "but if you saw me while you were gone…if you saw me cry EVERY night over you! Worry about you 24/7…I couldn't work because my mind was always on you. I got drunk several times. I was a mess…and it's all because the only good thing in my life ran away because she was too scared to face the consequences. But if you saw me then…you'd know. You'd know that I would NEVER let go of you again. EVER!" Another tear rolled down his cheek. Jude looked at him. She was scared. Scared of what could happen. She knew he was telling the truth…but she needed time. A lot of time! "I'm sorry…"
Tommy lay down on his bed thinking about yesterday's events. "I'm sorry…" he repeated Jude's words. The last words she said to him before she ran out. He didn't know why she had left. But he was sad to see her go. He had to get her back…had to! Just then, there was a knock on his door. He got up, walked to the door, and opened it revealing non other than…Gabby. "Hey Tommy!" her voice was flirty. Tommy had to smile. He loved Jude, yes, but there was no doubt that he was attracted to Gabby. "Can I come in?" Tommy shook his head and held the door open. Gabby walked in and plopped herself down on the couch. "So I was wondering…you wanna watch a movie or something?" Tommy sat beside her. "Sure…your pick."
An hour into the movie, Gabby was reaching for Tommy's arm. She of course picked a scary movie, so she could hold Tommy. He put out an arm and she jumped on to him, burying her head into his chest. There was a sudden boom and Gabby screamed. "Shh, it's okay. I'm here, it's just a movie." Tommy petted her hair. She looked up at him with those beautiful eyes. Those eyes… Nothing like Jude's eyes. Jude has gorgeous blue eyes. Stop! Stop thinking about Jude! You have a beautiful girl right here…no Jude! Tommy looked back at Gabby. Suddenly, their lips met. In the middle of their kiss, the door opened slightly and in walked ?. "Oh my God!" Tommy pulled away from Gabby and looked at who walked in…" Jude!"
Jude just stared at them. How could he do this to her? Just yesterday he was telling her how much he loved her, how much he still wanted her, and now? Now, he was kissing Gabby? Why! Jude began to cry uncontrollably. She couldn't help it. She was hoping that they could talk and work things out, but now she was scared again. She didn't want to get hurt, so she ran, but now that she was back, her heart broke once again. Tommy tried talking to her again. "Jude? Jude, I'm so sorry…I—" But he couldn't finish. Jude ran out the door. She had to leave…to go somewhere. But where would she go? She could only think of one place-her home. Jude ran and ran. Tears blurred her vision but she didn't care. She had to get as far away as possible.
Tommy went to get up and run after Jude but a hand stopped him. "Tommy, just let her go okay? Come on, let's get back to us!" Gabby was smiling. Tommy just looked at her in awe. "No Gabby! I…I love her okay? I love Jude! I don't even know why I kissed you but I wish I could take it back! I love her! I can't just let her leave again!" Gabby just stared at Tommy in disbelief. She let go of his arm and Tommy silently thanked her. He ran off in the only direction she could have gone.
Ding Dong
"Tommy, you shouldn't be here. Just go away." Tommy held open the door. "Please, Katie. Let me talk to Jude. She needs to hear my explanation!"
"What she needs is for you not to break her heart all the time!" Tommy was taken aback. "Incase you didn't know, she not only broke my heart- she shattered it! She made my entire life DISAPPEAR! How am I becoming the bad guy? What, because I kiss a girl? An innocent kiss that I wish I could take back? Huh? I was pulling away, but before I could Jude walked in. She doesn't know that does she?"
Katie stared at Tommy blankly. She didn't know how to respond to that. So instead, she shut the door. "I'M NOT LEAVING!" Tommy yelled through the door.
Darkness. That's all she saw. Black. That's how she felt. Alone. It's what she was. Standing on the curb, looking out into the road. He was there. Looking back at her. They stood there, looking at each other. Neither moved. Neither even dared to breathe. "I'm sorry!" He yelled. She wasn't sure if she should believe him or not. " You hurt me! Again! I can't keep forgiving you!" His face fell. "Can you try?" She thought about it. "I don't know…I can't keep getting hurt." Tears were in her eyes. Her vision became blurry. "I'd die without you…you know that right?" he said, his eyes becoming watery. She looked down at her feet. When she looked up, he was running to her. Lights. Bright lights. And…blood. He was dead. The car came and hit him. "Tommy!" She screamed. Jude fell to the ground crying. Sirens. Flashing lights. People came to the rescue but Jude needed the help along time ago. Now…he was gone…forever.
Jude awoke with sweat washing over her. He had died. He was telling the truth…he'd die without her…
Ha. Yay! There ya go! So, what do you think? Please please PLEASE Review: ) It makes me smile. Hehe. Okay...go ahead. Review!
