He paced the room, worrying about Jude. He wondered if she was cold, or hurt and alone. Images of her slim body lying on concrete, covered in blood, creeped through his head. He heard a knock on the door and faintly said, "Come in."
"Hey. How are you holding up?" Kwest said, his arm wrapped around a weeping Sadie.
Tommy looked up, his bloodshot blue eyes, clearly visible. "What are you guys doing here? It's like three in the morning."
"Try eight man. You didn't sleep did you?"
Tommy shook his head.
"Sadie, why don't you go lay down," Kwest urged.
She obediantly listened and found herself in the guest bedroom.
"Man, you have to get some sleep."
"I can't Kwest. All I can think of, is Jude lying dead somewhere."
Jude had fallen asleep early that morning, but she was awoken by Lily's cries for help. She cautiously opened her eyes and saw Jamie dragging Lily's battered body across the floor.
"Wake up," he ordered.
Jude slowly obeyed.
"You're going to watch what I do to poor Lily here, because if you don't keep your mouth shut, the same will happen to you."
Jude watched in horror as Jamie began to disfigure Lily. It took her a few moments to realize the girl was already dead. She let out a small wimper and screamed when Lily's neck snapped at the pressure Jamie was applying to it.
"Do you know what I'm going to do Jude?" Jamie, sickly asked.
She shook her head.
"You have to wonder why I got a girl with long red hair, who had the same body type," Jamie said as he slashed the side of Lily's face with a knife. "I'm going to plant her body Judy. Everyone will think poor little Jude was murdered, when really I'll have you all to myself."
"No."
"Little Tommy Q. will never see you, touch you, or even hear you ever again!"
"What is this Jamie? Some psycho jealousy trip? You just killed a girl!"
"I'm not jealous," he said in an agitated tone.
"Yes you are! You knew I never loved you."
"Yes you do. You do love me!" he said forcefully, throwing Lily's body aside.
"No I don't! I love Tommy!"
"You will never speak his name ever again. Do you hear me?" he said, grabbing her wrist tightly until it snapped.
Jude sobbed in pain as she heard the deafening crack of her bone. "Tommy...Tommy...Tommy...Tommy!" she taunted.
He slapped the side of her face and walked away from her, continuing to deform Lily's once perfect face.
"You'll never escape me Jude. You're stuck with me, and there's nothing you can do about it."
"What would people say, if they knew MTV's newest employee was a murderer and a wife beater! Oh wait, they already know about that last part. You just murdered an innocent girl!"
"They'll think it's you anyway. As soon as I finish up here, we're leaving."
"Where?"
"You'll see Jude...you'll see."
Around four o' clock, the phone rang at Tommy's house. Tommy was finally sleeping, so Kwest hurried to answer it before he woke up.
"Hello."
"Hello. Is Mr. Quincy there?"
"He's sleeping right now. Can I take a message?"
"This is the Toronto Police Department. If I could, I need to speak with him."
"Of course, I'll go get him."
Tommy hurried to the phone.
"Hello. Did you find Jude yet?"
"I'm sorry Mr. Quincy. We found a body with her ID, and her description."
"A body? She's...she's..." He couldn't bring himself to finish the sentence.
"She's dead Mr. Quincy. I'm very sorry."
