Chapter 8-

Those 2 weeks went by so slowly. All Jude could think about was Tommy, and she hoped he was thinking of her too. Finally, the first day of freedom in 2 weeks. She ran down the stairs fully clothed. She was finally able to walk without the crutches but she still had the cast on her leg. She didn't know why though, it didn't hurt that bad anymore. Victoria waved goodbye and Jude ran out the door, eager to surprise Tommy at G-Major. Funny how her mom thought that grounding her for dating a guy too old for her would stop her from dating Tommy. HA!

She made her way to G-Major and walked in the doors carefully so that nobody would notice her. She found the studio Tommy was in and snuck up behind him.

"Hey!" She yelled. He jumped in his seat a little and turned around. Tommy held his arms out and she fell into them, loving his embrace. She pulled away and sat next to him.

"I was beginning to think you'd be stuck in your room forever" Tommy said, swaying his chair back and forth.

"Yeah so was I"

"Where's your crutches?" Tommy questioned

"Don't need them. I get the cast off soon"

" Thats good.. Did you write any new songs?" he asked. Jude just sat there quietly. "You didn't?"

"Well Tommy I was doing chores and stuff...and I just..."

"Just what?"

"I didn't feel like writing anything"

Tommy put his hand up to her head. Nope, no fever. He checked her pulse. It was a little fast. She laughed and pulled her wrist away.

"Stop! I'm fine" She giggled.

"Jude Harrison always writes" Tommy said

"Well this Jude has been thinking of alot of other things lately"

"yeah? Like what?"

"A girl never dreams and tells" Jude got up and walked out to the lobby to tell Darius she was back.

"Theres my girl!" Darius gave her a one-armed hug.

"Ready to record anything?" Darius asked

"Um...I haven't really been writing, D, I just haven't.."

"You had all this time and you didn't write anything!" Darius asked "Not one little word?"

"I'm sorry.."

"Get to work, RIGHT now. I want a new song by friday"

"Yes sir" Jude walked out and entered the studio once again. Tommy looked at her as if asking what Darius said. She brushed his look aside and pulled out the guitar and some paper, scribbling down words and notes like there was no tomorrow.

"How long did he give you?" Tommy asked

"Friday"

"Well then" Tommy put his hand over her notepad and pulled the guitar away from her.

"What are you doing?" She stood, reaching for the guitar. He pulled it farther back.

"We are going to go have some fun today" Tommy headed for the door and Jude followed as fast as she could. He brought his Hummer to work today...wonder why, she thought.

She got in the front seat of the hummer with Tommy's help, it was too tall for her to step into with her broken leg. He took her to a diner that wasn't too far from the studio. It was plain and simple, it even had those nice dirt smudges along the wall and floors to give it that "I'm-a-diner-and-i've-been-here-for-a-century" type of look. They sat down at a table, having no intentions of ordering food till later. They would just sit and talk for now.

"So what all did they put you up to while I was gone?" Jude asked.

"Don't really wanna talk about that..." Tommy brushed it aside.

"um..okay..."

"What all did your mom make you do?"

"Oh god..first I had to wash the dishes for EVERY meal, not like anyone ever does, we just use the dishwasher...and then..." Jude was interrupted by Tommy's cell phone ringing. He placed his finger up in a "Hold-on" way. She nodded and watched him as he talked on the phone.

"Yeah?" He answered. He placed his index finger in his other ear. "Now? Why today?"

"Who is it?" Jude whispered. Tommy waved his hand to tell her to be quiet.

"I'll be there in a minute" Tommy sighed. He hung up the phone and stood up. "Come on"

"Who was that?" Jude tried again

"I have to go. I'll take you home" He refused to answer.

"No, it's alright, I'll walk"

"But your leg.."

"My leg is going to lose all muscle if I dont work it out. I'm fine" Jude stood up and limped her way out the door angrily. This was supposed to be the day she and Tommy were officially together and now he won't even tell her where he's going! He shook his head and got in the car, heading for his destination. She was tired of Tommy playing these games with her. Leading her on and then breaking her. It hurt.

She got home and waited for hours for Tommy to call back. He never did. It was now 4:30 and he hasn't even asked if she got home alright. Having had enough of this nonsense, she figured she'd find out herself.

"Sadie..you have to go to work for the night shift tonight right?" Jude asked.

"Yeah..why?" Sadie looked up from the pile of mail she was shifting through.

"Take me with you?"

"Fine. I leave in an hour"

Jude waited impatiently for the hour. Finally, Sadie walked down the stairs and headed for the door, motioning for Jude to follow. They got in the bug and drove to G-Major. The first thing Jude did was look through all the studio's, but Tommy wasn't in there. She ran for Darius's office and flung the door open.

"Where's Tommy!" She demanded.

"He said he had to go somewhere with his artist" Darius didn't look up from the papers he was signing.

"Who's his artist?" Jude flailed her arms about.

"Tina..didn't you know?"

"He went somewhere with Tina?"
