Chapter 4: Tommy Gun
Tommy just stood there gaping at what he had just heard. He hadn't spoken to Jude in... he didn't know how long. He went to look at his calendar. 12 years? It can't have been that long! I can't believe we haven't even said a word to eachother in 12 years. And now they're coming to visit? He shook his head and went over to where he had left the phone. He picked it up from the floor. "What?"
"You heard me. We're coming to London."
"Why?"
"Well, Georgia got this crazy idea that it would cool for you me and Jude to make a new album. Blame Jude for agreeing. What do you think?" Tommy sighed.
"You know it's gonna be hard working with her after everything that happened."
"I know."
"But, maybe it could work. When are you coming?"
"I don't know, Jude's supposed to call me when she has a flight booked. She's coming down to New Jersey first."
"Oh uh, cool."
"Tom, you still like Jude, don't you?"
"No!" He said defensively.
"Come on, man. You know you do. You talk about her all the time, you ask me how she's doing constantly, you even told me you were thinking about moving back to Vancouver once." Tommy sighed.
"I guess you're right. I do still love Jude. It's just--hard. I mean, we had a kid. And she had to lie about it. How do I know she hasn't moved on?" Kwest laughed.
"Trust me. She hasn't moved on." Tommy smiled.
"Well, i'll see you--whenever. I've gotta go."
"Ok. Bye."
"Bye." They hung up and Tommy went back to sleep. He got a call from Kwest the next day saying that they would be in London in 3 weeks. He agreed to meet them in the airport and started preparing for their visit. 3 days later, he left his apartment, bought a single red rose, and left for the airport. He parked and went in, heading for the arrivals terminal. He went in and immediately saw Kwest sitting in one of the chairs, staring out the window. He went up to her. "Hey, man. Where's Jude?" He looked up and Tommy sat down next to him. He shrugged.
"Where she usually is." He shook his head. "Man, that girl is addicted to caffine." Tommy laughed.
"Some things never change." Kwest looked at the flower in his hand.
"For Jude?" He sighed, but nodded.
"Yeah." Kwest nodded back.
"She'll love it." He looked behind him. "Here she is." Tommy turned around and braced himself as he saw the familiar head of firey red hair.
