All He Wants Chapter 10: Jude's Mistake, an instant star fanfic

Tommy woke up because his stomach was telling him he was hungry. He opened the fridge and found it empty so he wrote Jude a quick note and headed out to pick up some food. While Tommy was putting the groceries in the car he saw a bus pulling in the hotel across the street. He looked as the door opened and Shay stepped out.

"Shay?" Tommy asked getting in his car and driving across the street.

"Tommy, what are you doing here?" Darius asked as Tommy got out of the car.

"Is Jude with you?" Shay asked trying see through the tinted windows.

"I'm here working with Jude, we have to finish the album."

"Oh."

"So the tour brought you to Hawaii?"

"Yeah the last stop then 2 months off." Shay actually sounded relieved.

"Well you deserve the time off." Tommy tried to sound nice but it didn't seem to be working.

"You and Jude should come to the show."

"We'll try." Tommy got in the car and sped off. His cell started ringing and he saw Darius's number flashing. "Hello?"
"I think Shay and Jude should get back together."

"Why?"
"Shay's just not Shay without her."

"Well Jude's moved on to someone new?"
"Who?"

"Some guy she won't even tell Georgia who he is."

"Well just pass the info on to Jude."

"Will do." Tommy pulled into the driveway. "Hey Jude I could use some help."

"Coming!"

"So guess who I ran into today?"

"Cher."

"No even better, Shay."

"He's here?"

"Yeah."

"And Darius thinks you guys should get back together."

"No."

"I told him you were with someone new and that you wouldn't even tell Georgia."

"And?"

"He didn't say anything."

"Well Shay had his chance."

"And lost you to me."

"Yep." Jude kissed his cheek as they walked into the house. After awhile Jude was out sitting by the pool working on a new song. She just let the words flow from her mouth:

won't deny, I faked it
Don't wanna lie, I'm jadded
I wanna scream when inside I'm breaking down
I've left the stone I was under
I'm running home, you won't find her
She walks alone all through this broken town

Chorus
Goin' the wrong way down a one way street
Where the feeling is criminal
Nobody helps me out when I believe
Just a look, look, looking for someone like me
Where the feeling is mutual
Can anybody see what I see
Cuz I don't see me

I blow away the ashes
I clear space to look at him
He stole my name while I waited lost and found
I found a place where I'll keep you
Cuz I won't live through you or beneth you
I walk this way where these winds won't bring me down

Let me be
Stayin at all
Don't waste it on me
Cuz if I take a chance
And if I hurt again
And if I let you leave
Be my reconing
Ooo, hey!

Tommy was standing in the living room and heard her singing and her voice sounded so real it was scary sometimes. She reminded of him when he was first starting out. He had thought about starting her career over again but then thought of Jude. It would be really hard with her touring and promoting her record they would never get to see each other if he tried to revive his career. She needed him and he had been reluctant to admit it but he needed her also.

The door bell rang and Tommy went to answer it hoping that Jude would keep working. He nearly had a heart attack when he saw Shay and Darius standing at the door. He just plastered on his best fake smile and let them in.

"Hey Tommy where's Jude?"

"She's out by the pool."

"Thanks."

"What are you doing here? I mean she needs to work."

"This was all Shay's idea, I just came along to catch up with you."

"What do you want?"

"I want Jude to perform with Shay tonight and tonight only. I talked to Georgia and she said to ask you."

"Ask Jude, she's the artist not me." They both started walking towards the pool and Darius was the first to get there. Tommy stopped dead in his tracks when he saw Shay and Jude practically making out. He was furious but hid his emotions after he realized that they didn't know about them.

"She'll be ready."

"Cool. You know Tommy she's really great."

"Yeah, what time?"

"7:30."

"Okay."

"Shay let's go."

"Okay." Tommy just looked at Jude as Shay and Darius left. For once he was the one hurt not her.

"You're performing with Shay tonight. Be ready at 7:30." He turned and left the house. He got in the car and drove, having no idea where he was going or when or if he was going to go back. His cell rang and he didn't answer it knowing it was her, he knew that he should have never told her he loved her. He knew he was gonna get hurt in the end and this time she could yell at him because it was all her fault. He picked up the phone and dialed Kwest's number.

"Hello?"

"It's over."

"Hey how's Hawaii?"

"We're over."

"Dude what happened?"

"She's with Shay now."

"What happened?"

"She kissed Shay, did I not tell you that this was going to happen?"

"Let me talk to her."

"I knew I was gonna get hurt. Are you at the studio?"

"Yeah."

"Tell Georgia what happened so she's not out the loop and tell her that Jude's performing and then we're coming back. Can I talk to EJ?"

"Yeah, Hello?"

"Hey EJ I have a big favor to ask you."

"What's up?"

"Jude and Shay are back together."

"What happened to you guys?"

"I don't know, I guess she was lying about how she felt. But she's gonna be heading home tomorrow so maybe you could talk her into moving out of my place."

"Where are you gonna be?"

"Out of town, Kwest can handle the record for awhile. I just need some time to myself."

"Okay, hey are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'll be fine." He hung up and continued driving.

That night at the show Jude sat in her dressing room, angry at herself for kissing Shay and angry at Shay for doing that. She didn't want to perform with Shay and she didn't want to even think about getting back together with him. She was kicking herself for doing that to Tommy. She had left 26 messages on his phone and she was starting to believe that it was over between them for good. EJ had called and said that she was flying home tomorrow and that it would be best if Jude moved out which Jude agreed with.

But when Georgia called it made everything a reality instead of a dream as Jude thought it was. Georgia had said that it was best if Tommy wasn't her producer anymore and that Kwest would be taking over. There was no one to blame but herself, she should've have stopped Shay but she didn't and now she would never forgive herself for hurting Tommy. She understood that Tommy was never coming back and that she had lost him for forever.
