Jude: Okay that's it I can't take it anymore I have to see what they're doing. If I'm lucky it won't be each other.
Jude quickly pulled a hoody over her T-shirt. She grabbed her key to Tommy's house and stuffed it in her pocket. She threw on some Chuck Taylor's and silently walked out the front door. She started the mustang as quietly as possible and drove away.
Jude hobbled up the steps to Tommy's house (she hadn't bothered to take her crutches) and unlocked the door with her key. She took a deep breath and walked into the house. There was Tommy on the couch, sleeping like a baby. She looked to her right and there was Maddie curled up in a chair hugging a big bowl of popcorn. Some weird movie was playing on the television. Tommy's eyes fluttered open at the sound of the door opening. Jude froze, not knowing what else to do. Tommy's eyes found the intruder.
Tommy: Jude?
Silent tears started coming down Jude's face.
Jude: Oh great! Here I am at like 2 in the morning expecting to walk in on whore bag and Tommy doing the nasty, but they just fell asleep watching a movie. Now Tommy's going to think he has some paranoid freak for a girl friend! I'll be lucky if he doesn't break up with me right now!
Tommy: Jude, what's wrong?
Jude just stood there paralyzed. He was about to find out she didn't trust him. That's definitely not good in a relationship.
Tommy realized what was going on.
Tommy: Oh Jude…
Jude's tears fell faster. Tommy got up and started walked towards her. She didn't budge. He embraced her in his strong arms. She buried her head in his chest. He rubbed her back caressing her.
Tommy: Ssshhh… it's okay.
Jude: I'm sorry. (Said while bringing her head up to face Tommy)
Tommy: For what? You didn't do anything wrong you were just worried. It's okay.
Jude started to calm down. Tommy leaned down and kissed her gently.
Jude: I should go I-
Tommy: Jude it's 2 in the morning a pretty girl like you shouldn't be driving around, especially with that ankle. Just stay the night it's not that big a deal. We can call your mom in the morning.
Tommy led Jude over to the couch and set her down. He lay next to her and held her in his arms. Maddie's face slid into the popcorn bowl. Jude couldn't help smiling. Tommy kissed her neck gently and they drifted off to sleep.
