Disclaimer - I do not own Instant star...yet..lol
Chapter 3 - Never normal
- 2 Months into Sadie's pregnancy -
Jude had finally accepted that it wasn't meant to be with Tommy. Sadie and him were meant, the baby was proof of that. Though she accepted it she was still having a hard time coping with it. Her grades in school were dropping and she was becoming more and more distant from her friends, including Tommy.
"Come on Jude!" Sadie called from downstairs. She had talked Jude into going to the mall with her to shop for some stylish baggy clothes. Since she was about to start showing she needed to be comfortable and she didn't own any clothes that weren't skin tight.
"Coming.." Jude muttered, throwing her hair up in a sloppy pony tail and allowing her bangs to hang in her face. She didn't care what she looked like anymore.
She looked at her pail complection in the mirror for only a few seconds before she got disgusted and walked out of her bathroom. She pulled a hoodie on slowly and walked downstairs.
"It took you that long to dress like that?" Sadie rolled her eyes.
"Sadie, don't start. I don't even want to go," Jude complained, stepping into her converse.
"Aww come on, it'll be fun!" Sadie said cheerfully.
"Oh yeah..tons of fun," Jude mocked.
Sadie rolled her eyes and pulled her sister out of the house and had to literally drag her to the car. Once the two were finally in and Sadie started driving she decided to bring up something she had been avoiding the past month or so.
"So, hows everything at the studio?" Sadie asked. Jude looked out the window and watched the different cars go by.
"Okay I guess,"
"And everything with Kwest?" Sadie asked, rather quickly. Jude turned and looked at her sister skeptically.
"He's fine.."
"Oh, okay..just asking because he is your new producer and all," Sadie turned her attention back to the road and Jude stared at her in disbelief.
"Yes, yes he is. He's a great producer too,"
"Not hard to believe," Sadie said, half-smiling. Jude caught on to her smile and narrowed her eyes a bit.
"Yeah, you know Kwest is a really good guy.."
"That he is," Sadie agreed.
"I was thinking maybe, me and him..you know..would maybe hit it off?" Jude stated. She didn't really believe this but Sadie was acting just down right weird and somewhat possesive over Kwest? Jude tried to keep a straight face, which wasn't too difficult considering the mood she was in already.
Sadie glanced from the road to her sister atleast three times before speaking.
"Jude, you're still 17 you know," She said a bit snootily.
"Yeah, well, not everyone is so focused on the age difference. Some people take chances for the ones they care about," She said harshly. Sadie said nothing more. The rest of the ride to the mall was in complete silence.
Tommy was now signed with another studio. Darius helped get him the job, though it wasn't hard. His new boss' name was Matt Incson, Tommy wasn't too fond of the guy but hey it was a job and he needed the money. He was now taking on three new artists, two girls and a boy. Sarah, Natalie, and Jamar.
Sarah was a short, small framed, long haired blonde with brown eyes. She was 19 and totally into Tommy.
Natalie was just a bit taller than Sarah and had straight jet black hair and blue eyes. She was 18.
Jamar on the other hand was 17, slim and matched Tommy's height.
Today was Tommy's time with Sarah. It seemed as though everytime they were together and working on her Popish-like songs they ended up in innapropriate conversations. Sarah egged the conversations on and Tommy tried to avoid them.
She walked into the studio.
"Hey Tommy," She smiled at him seductively.
"Hey Sarah.." He looked up from his papers that were filled with her lyrics. He tried to sound enthusiastic but it just wasn't worth trying anymore.
"Aww, Tommy whats the matter?" She pulled up a stool really close to Tommy and strattled it, facing him.
Tommy hessitated but moved his chair back a bit.
"Nothing, now, about these lyrics-"
"Tommy come on, whats wrong?" She scooted the stool closer to him and placed a hand on his knee. This time he didn't move..
"What about this?" Sadie held up a T-shirt that read, "Blondes have more fun," The shirt itself looked like it could hold three Sadies inside. Jude couldn't help but laugh. She eyed her sisters small form and couldn't see her wearing something like that. Sadie scoffed and hung the shirt back on the rack.
"You've done that with every shirt so far!" She said, frustratedly looking through some more clothes.
"Sorry, It's just..I can't picture you in that," Jude tried to hide her smirk. Sadie noticed and glared.
"Well you better get use to it," And with that Sadie walked across the store. Jude watched and shook her head. 'Yeah..get use to it,' She thought.
She continued looking through the enormous shirts for a few minutes until finally giving up.
"Have you looked at the stretch pants yet?" She asked, eyeing the rack of pants and walking towards them.
Sadie visibly twitched and swallowed hard.
"Stretch pants?" She could barely say the two words together.
"Yeah..these," Jude held up a pair of pink cotton stretch pants.
Sadie looked the pants over skeptically and held out her hand to touch them.
"Well.." She started. Jude smiled and put them in Sadie's hands completely.
"They're fine," She said before going through some more of the pants. Sadie hessitantly nodded and watched Jude look through the pants. She smiled. They hadn't fought in atleast an hour, this had to be a good sign right?
"Hey Sades, I'll be right back," Jude said, snapping her sister out of her daze.
"Yeah, ok," Sadie replied, walking back to the other side of the store looking at T-shirts again.
Jude pushed her hands inside of her sweatshirt and walked across the mall to a music store. This was her favorite cd shop of all time because it had the best variety and a few of the kids that worked there went to her school. Once inside she immediately went to the rock section. She smiled to herself when she saw her name on one of the tabs but not any cds. They were sold out.
"Wow.." She said quietly.
"You did good," A voice came from behind her. Jude almost jumped out of her skin. Her heart beat sped up and then she turned around to face the person. When she seen who it was it sped up even more.
"Hey speid.."
"Look sarah..I-" Sarah pulled her fingers to his lips.
"Shh, its okay," She started to pull her face closer to his until he finally got up and backed up, pulling the stool between them.
"I'm having a baby, I don't need this," He stated firmly. She smirked and walked beside him, brushing up against him, purposely. She finally made it to the recording room and pulled on her head phones, motioning him to start recording. He sighed heavily and she smirked once again, seeing the effect she had on him.
He pushed a button that started the recording. Her voice started through the mic, it was almost hypnotising.
'Tell me your secret
Make me your fantasy
I'll make you forget her.
I could be your ecstasy
Every ounce of hope I have and
Every kiss with you I know..
You're meant for me
Like the sun and the rain,
It falls into play
Eternal as the earth and the sun
I want to be your number one-
"Alright, go straight to the end," Tommy said through the intercom. She nodded.
Don't try to fight it
No don't hide it
Show me the real you
I'll be true..
You're meant for me..'
After Sarah heard Jude's song 'Your 21' She tried to make a song a bit like it and this is what she came up with. Tommy knew when Jude heard it she wasn't going to like it so he wanted to persuade Sarah to change her lyrics. Besides, they sounded too immature anyway.
"The lyrics aren't working for me," He started bluntly..
