Chapter 14

Jude grabbed her guitar and stepped out the doors of G Major. She glanced around the parking lot and saw no one was there to pick her up. Jude sighed.

"Welcome Home" she muttered under her breath.

The doors opened behind her and Tommy stepped out. He stopped when he saw Jude and glanced around.

"Need a ride?" He asked, looking at her, concern in his eyes.

Jude sighed. "Yeah." She said, looking disappointed. "Thanks." Tommy shrugged in a no problem like shrug and led her over to the Viper. Jude got in and clicked the seat belt and waited for Tommy to start the car.

"Darius told me not to come back tomorrow without my hair being a different color." Jude said, breaking their silence. Tommy shook his head and rolled his eyes.

"So, it's started." Tommy said, looking annoyed.

"What?"

"He's changing you, Jude." Tommy said, pulling out into traffic and glancing back at her before turning his attention back to the road.

"I'm not going to change because he wants me too." Jude said, looking like she actually believed those words. Tommy sighed.

"I remember, not so long ago, five friends who said that very same thing." He said, his eyes getting a far-away sadness in them. Jude looked annoyed.

"I'm not changing myself. Like my song says 'You can't take the me, out of me." Jude said, looking smug. Tommy turned his gaze to her for a moment.

"I really hope so." Tommy said, watching her for a long moment and turning his attention back to the road. "Do you know what color yet?"

"I'm thinking…possibly purple…" Jude said, a grin on her face. Tommy smirked.

"Darius would love that…especially with something like blue highlights…" Tommy said, grinning wickedly. Jude laughed and looked thoughtful.

"I should just do it just in spite." Tommy nodded in agreement.

"I would pay to see that," Tommy stated, conjuring up an image of Jude with Purple hair and blue highlights walking into the studio the next day or two. He snickered slightly at the thought and grinned at Jude who was also shaking her head in mirth.

"I don't know…I was thinking about changing my hair color before I left for tour…maybe the change will be good." Jude said, trying to stay positive. Tommy looked like he was going to say something, but opted not to. Jude stared at him expectantly and didn't even realize they had arrived before her house. Jude sighed. "Thanks for the ride." She said, opening the door to the viper and got out. She got half way up the drive when his voice stopped her.

"Hey Jude," Tommy said and she looked at him. "Don't let him change who you are. I've seen way too many people get changed because of who their manager wants them to be…just…don't lose yourself on the way." Jude nodded.

"I don't plan on it." Jude said, smiling at Tommy. Tommy shrugged.

"Just, keep that in mind, ok? I wouldn't want to see you changing who you are." Tommy said, and Jude nodded once more. Jude waved good bye to Tommy and jogged up to the house, contemplating her new hair color and Tommy's last words.
