Chapter 4: Kiss Me
Jude woke up with a big smile, and wondered what her Tommy was doing. He was on his rooftop deck seeing the sunset come up drinking his morning coffee. He closed his eyes and took the breeze and smiled with thoughts of Jude. Jude got up and made omelets with French toast for her and her sister. It was pretty early for Jude to be up but she couldn't help being energetic. Sadie woke up to the smell of something really delicious being cooked.
-Yumm, what is that smell?
-Oh hey Sadie, I thought I would cook us breakfast and prepare some coffee.
-Jude Harrison is up bright and early cooking breakfast?
-Yup I am, but don't get used to it, I wouldn't want you to abuse my good mood. Sadie laughed and told her food looked really delicious Sadie helped Jude set up the plates and place them on their dining table. They had decorated their apartment really nicely and had bought cute colored cups & jugs and a mantel for their table. Their apartment was blue and pink which were Jude and Sadie's favorite colors. They sat down and ate breakfast while they talked about their shopping trip today.
-You know I have to give you props for your cooking.
-Well thank you Sadie, glad you liked it
-We're still getting lattes and shopping right?
-Yea right after I come back from G major, Darius wants me to come in today unfortunately but I already wrote a song so he'll be happy.
-Yea I have to go into work today too, Liam is such a pain.
-Tell me about it, well I better go get ready before I have to listen to Liam.
-Hey we can take my car since we are going to the same place.
-Ok, but don't take so long getting dressed, you take forever. Sadie laughed and went to get ready as did Jude. Jude was wearing a baby blue tank top and blue jeans with her Jim Morrison belt and her flip-flops and Sadie was wearing a white tube top and a schoolgirl skirt with her black boots.
-You look really cute Sadie, but a little too sexy for work don't you think so?
-A woman always has to look sexy Jude, here take my baby blue sunglasses it will match your shirt and you will look hot. I'll wear my white ones.
-Thanks, you're such a girl. Sadie laughed and fixed Jude's golden curls in place and put her sunglasses on her. They got into the car looking very sexy, the wind in their hair, listening to the Veronicas "4ever" and the sun beaming down on their face. When they both stepped into G Major, it was like time was slowing down and all the attention was on them. Tommy was already at G Major talking to Darius about what happened and he gave him his old job back. He stopped dead on his tracks when he saw the two girls come in. They smiled as they looked at each other as they turned heads. Jude smiled, as she walk towards Tommy and Tommy was speechless looking at her sway her hips and smiling at him. Sadie saw Kwest stop dead on his tracks like Tommy and his jaw dropped as he saw Sadie coming towards him clicking her heels and putting down her sunglasses to see Kwest. The four of them looked at each other's eyes and smiled.
-Hey boys, when you guys get your voice back, Jude and I will be working. Jude walked away with Sadie and laughed as they left the guys speechless. Sadie went to work and Jude went to see Darius in his office. She walked in and saw Darius twitch a bit as he saw a very happy and beautiful Jude come in.
-Hey Darius! I'm here bright and early
-I see that… Jude you look nice and happy but I already know why.
-Yea I'm really happy he's back.
-Well you will be happy to know that Tommy got his job back, he'll be producing you again.
-Oh my God! Really?
-Yea, as of matter a fact you can go start to work right now if you want. You have interviews about the Tour coming up and a few performances also.
-You're the best Darius, you couldn't make me happier.
-I know, I know, now get in there and make music.
-Well I already wrote many songs that could possibly go on the next album.
-Good, now go record them.
-Well actually since I did write songs already, do you think you can let Sadie and I get out early? It's a sister thing.
-Well if I hear a good song that I like, I'll let you girls out early.
-Thank you, thank you, I will go make music now. Jude got up excited, the day was going so well and Tommy was going to be her producer again.
-Hey Jude?
-Yea?
-Good job on the Tour, it's great to have you back and happy.
-Thanks Darius, good to be back. Jude ran out of the office and went to look for Tommy, she had to embrace him now, she was so happy he was working with her again. He came into studio B, where Tommy and Kwest were setting up things for her to sing. She ran to Tommy and embraced him so tightly and wrapped her legs around his waist. Kwest saw how cute they looked and knew that was his cue to leave. As he stepped out he saw Sadie walking by looking for her sister.
-Hey Kwest! By any chance have you seen my sister, I've been looking for her.
-Actually she's in there with Tommy but I don't think you want to interrupt them, they are sort of having a moment.
-Oh ok, I gotcha, I'll look for her later then.
-Hey Sadie… I have something to show you, it's that ok with you or are you too busy now.
-No Now is fine, I'm available. And with that she gave him her seductive smile and walked in front of him, of course Kwest was enjoying the view. In Studio B, Jude hugged Tommy tightly and Tommy breathed her in like he always did and held on to her since she was wrapped around his waist. She pulled away gently telling him she was so happy that he was going to work with her again. Tommy smiled and couldn't help but notice how hot Jude looked and he was wrapped around him, which was even hotter. He took her by surprise and kissed her aggressively and Jude was so swept off her feet that she tangled her fingers in his hair making Tommy moan slightly. He held her from her back, which he stroked repeatedly. He deepened the kiss even more and that made Jude's heart melt. He was about to put her on the soundboard when they both heard someone barge in through the door. It was Liam who came in with a very sour look on his face.
-I see you people have reunited and boy you guys didn't waste anytime being all over each other again. Jude couldn't face him yet, since they were in a very compromising position. She couldn't help laughing at the whole situation.
-Yea, well Tommy and I were just umm…
-Practicing for a play, it's umm…
-Romeo and Juliet, I told Tommy I needed help getting into character so he was helping me.
-Yea exactly. They knew Liam didn't believe a word they were saying but Tommy and Jude enjoyed the whole thing. Liam walked away without saying a word to them while they laughed up a storm. Mean while Sadie and Kwest were in Studio A listening to a very hot track that Sadie was dancing and bopping her head to. Kwest was giving her lessons about Music history and telling her all about the great artists in history.
-I really love this track, what band is it?
-It's "3 Days Grace" I saw them at a concert once and they gave me their CD to listen to it and told me that they needed someone to produce their next album so I volunteered to produce them.
-WOW! That's awesome Kwest, when are you starting?
-In a couple of weeks they are coming to Toronto so they will be recording here.
-Really? Wow that is so great, are you excited?
-Well of course, it's honor for them to let me produce them.
-Yea well, I'm happy for you, it's a really great opportunity. Sadie gave him once more her seductive smile that made him weak. He couldn't take it anymore he had to kiss her so he walked towards her and held her face and kissed her hungrily. Sadie was enjoying the kiss so much that her hands hung loosely around his neck. They walked backwards where he can lean her against the wall. As he kissed her he took one of his hands and couldn't help but put one of her legs wrap around him. He caressed it wanting her so much, and then they stopped when they heard someone slam the door. It was Liam of course.
-What is this a make-out studio? Shouldn't you be at the front desk?
-I'm on my break if you didn't know?
-Well you are having one hell of a break aren't you?
-It's none of your business what I do on my breaks, I hope it's clear that you might be my boss but I deserve respect and just in case you don't know what that is that means you treat me nicely and don't raise your voice at me. Got it? Sadie walked away with a smile on her face and Kwest couldn't help laughing so he made it seem like he was coughing. Liam stood speechless and came out of the room with a storm. Kwest smiled to himself and couldn't believe he had made-out with Sadie. In studio B Tommy and Jude were recording the song she had written yesterday (A beautiful man by Mandy Moore) and Tommy couldn't help smile at her and he gazed upon her with his ocean blue eyes that anyone could get lost in them. Jude sang the song so passionately that it gave Tommy goose bumps. She had her eyes closed the whole time and gave it her all; she had left her soul in the song as she strummed the last chords to the song. When Jude finished recording the song, Tommy put in a demo CD and gave it to her so she can give it to Darius. Before she left the room to show Darius, he grabbed her by the hand.
-Hey I really enjoyed making music with you today
-I really did to; you're the best producer ever. Tommy laughed, he thought it was cute of Jude to tell him that. He hugged her by the waist since he was sitting down and kissed her stomach. Jude giggled as it tickled her, she held him tight and winked her eye at him and left the room. She gave Darius the CD and he couldn't believe she was done so soon. He listened to it and gave her two thumbs up. He loved the song and the weird part is that he knew whom the song was about. He let her and her sister have the rest of the day off. Jude walked back to say goodbye to Tommy.
-Leaving so soon?
-Yea, Sadie and I have a sister day today but I promise I'm all yours at night ok?
-All right, don't have too much fun. Jude laughed and kissed him gently on his lips and rested her forehead with his for a moment. She left the studio with a big smile and right there she saw Sadie wandering looking for her.
-Hey I've been looking for you!
-Are you ready to go, I'm done here and Darius gave us the rest of the day off.
-Really? That's perfect, now let's hit the shops. She took Jude's arm and put it around her and they walked to the car. They bopped their heads to the track that Kwest gave Sadie from "3 Days Grace" as the wind blew their hair. They hit the shops first stopping by Claire's (the cutest accessories store ever) following the best clothing stores in Toronto, Charlotte Russe, Gap, Strawberry, Abercombie and Finch, Baby Phat, Pretty Girl, Bon Bini and last but not least Jude's favorite store Hot Topic. They bought so much and went inside a Starbucks and had a latte to rest from shopping. They bought clothes, accessories, make-up, CDs, sunglasses to add up to Sadie's collection and for Jude and they didn't spend too much money. They had a very fun day together, and Jude wasn't actually bored shopping. They shopped till they dropped, but Sadie had this weird smile as she was drifting off.
-What's that smile I see huh?
-Jude, I have something to confess to you.
-Oh Lord, what did you do this time?
-Well nothing, Kwest and I sort of ummm…
-SADIE! Oh my God you two made-out?
-Well yea, and it was so good but I don't know its Kwest you know.
-Well he's not ugly, he's good-looking and he's a good producer.
-I know that, it's just I would never imagine Kwest and me.
-Life surprises you I guess, well give it a chance ok you never know. We better get going I have to go get dressed for my date with Tommy.
-Right let's go, oh and you have to let me do your make-up.
-Fine, let's go, Tommy awaits. Jude and Sadie giggled, they were two beautiful girls living life away.
-Hey Sadie maybe you should invite Kwest over.
-What you really think so?
-Yea, Why not? I'll be out of the house and well…
-All right, sounds like a plan.
-So lets get beautified.
-Jude I'm so proud of you, you want to get beautified.
-You're such a girl. They drove back to the apartment and went upstairs to get ready. Tommy test messaged Jude:
-Harrison where are you? I'm waiting for your call, let me know when you're ready and I'll pick you up. I love you Harrison, don't make me wait so long, LOL.
Jude smiled at the message and got dressed into her outfit. She was wearing a summer dress that she bought in Charlotte Russe that accentuated her curves and made her tiny waist visible. It was the color of Jude's eyes with strappy blue sparkly shoes. She used a flatiron to pin straight her hair and put on some of the shimmer she bought. Sadie came in to her room smiling at her and helped her do her make-up. She added light blue eye shadow, used white eyeliner, rouged her cheeks lightly so that she looked flushed and added shimmering lip-gloss. She was beautiful, Sadie was proud of her make-up on her. Jude called Tommy and told him she was ready; it was music to his ears. He came as soon as he could and as soon as he knew it, he parked in front of her driveway. Sadie saw Tommy in the driveway and let him in. He looked gorgeous, he was wearing a white shirt that accentuated his muscles with a blazer and blue jeans and his hair had a sexy messy look. Jude walked down the stairs and saw Tommy; She had taken his breath away. She looked beautiful and he couldn't help drool over her.
-You can close your mouth now. Jude laughed at Sadie's comment and made her way downstairs. Tommy smiled at her and Sadie knew that was her cue to leave.
-Have fun Jude! You too Tommy!
-Thanks Sadie1 You too!
-Yea thanks. Jude winked an eye at Sadie as she did the same. They both walked outside not taking their eyes off each other. It was their first date together and Tommy planned on making it special. They drove away to their destination and held each other's hand. When they made it to the restaurant, He opened the door for Jude and took her hand in his.
-Good evening, I made a reservation for two please?
-What's your name sir?
-Tom Quincy. Jude loved the sound of his name; it made her heart skip a beat.
-Right this way please. He seated them at the most romantic table with candles and the table was already set up with chocolate and strawberries.
-Thank you for coming, the waiter will be with you shortly, have a good evening.
-Thank you, you too. Jude was amazed that Tommy had taken her to the most romantic restaurant she had ever seen. Tommy opened a seat for her and sat across Tommy who was gazing at her with his beautiful ocean blue eyes. They looked into each other's eyes and held each other's hand. Jude leaned over and whispered: I love you Tom Quincy. He closed his eyes as he heard her say it and kissed her softly. They fed each other the chocolate with strawberries and talked about the song she had recorded earlier that day. Mean while Sadie who was wearing a short black cocktail dress that wasn't too formal but sexy enough and she walked around barefoot but wore an ankle bracelet and toe ring to accentuate her legs since her and Kwest were going to stay home and she didn't want to look too formal. She wore her hair up on a high ponytail and wore rhinestone hoop earrings with light lip-gloss and black eyeliner. She heard the doorbell ring and rushed downstairs to receive Kwest. She opened the door and leaned on the door with her seductive smile that mad Kwest nervous. He came in with a box in his hands; she opened it and saw that it was a cake he actually made himself. The cake said "Sadie" on it. Kwest looked very cute in a buttoned down shirt and jeans. They looked at each other for a moment and he and she couldn't resist each other: Kiss me she said and he was sure to obey her command, he kissed her the way he had done earlier. He deepened the kiss and carried her to the nearest couch and layed her down. He kissed her caressing her cheek and legs, which was his weakness. Back at the restaurant, Tommy and Jude enjoyed their meal and took bites from each other's plate and fed it to each other. It was so cute; anybody could see they were very into each other. After dinner, they walked the docks where they could see the water, Tommy embrace Jude from the behind her and kissed her cheek. The wind was blowing softy, so softly you could hardly feel it. They held each other and talked about music, life, and places where they wanted to go together. He told her he loved her for the hundredth time that night and hugged her tightly. He knew it was almost time to tell her the truth about why he left, he wanted her to know, and she deserved to know.
-Jude I have to tell you something… It's about why I left and what happened, I…
-Tommy you don't have to tell me at this moment, it's ok I understand.
-No I want to, please let me.
-Ok talk to me, what happened?
-The reason I left was because I… I have a daughter Jude. Jude shocked couldn't believe he never told her anything. Even though everything was going so well, she couldn't help but feeling betrayed and hurt.
-Jude listen to me please, let me tell you the whole truth even if you feel you hate me now. Long time ago when I was starting out with Boysattack, on tour I met someone and like a stupid teenager that I was, I slept with her thinking I was cool and that I was it. Few months later, she told me she was pregnant with my baby and I couldn't believe it so I asked her that when the baby was born I wanted a blood test. When the baby was born, I had the blood test and it turned out I was the father. I wanted to do the right thing so I said that I was going to pay child support but her dad didn't want anything to do with me, and she didn't either. I didn't know what to do, there were many times when I wanted to see the baby but they wouldn't let me. I didn't talk about this to anyone because it was hard for me. That night I left, her father came to Toronto looking for me so I told him where I was and that I was producing you. Next thing I know he tells me that his daughter died and that I had to take care of my child that I never got a chance to get to know because I never had the chance to. He threatened me with telling the press about my legitimate child and that he would lie to them and tell them I never wanted the child. He even threatened me with taking away my job. I left that night because I didn't want the job that I loved to be taken away from me, the one that brought me to you and I didn't want lies about me to be told to the press when I hadn't told you personally. I left to Montana holding back tears because leaving you was the hardest thing I had to go through. I had to say goodbye the way I did because I hated goodbyes and I couldn't return your calls because you would remind me that I wasn't with you. I left for a year where I got to know my daughter and lived with her and supported her financially but her father started asking me for more and more money and I couldn't let him abuse me like that. I told him that I didn't care anymore about him telling the press anymore and my job already was taken away because I wasn't with you. Turns out when I left one day to buy my daughter her necessities, he was gone with everything including lily. I called the police but he had all the right to since his daughter left him authority over lily. I tried hard to get her back but I couldn't, I really did tried for a year but I couldn't, I…Tommy was beginning to cry, Jude felt horrible and was in tears to, he went through a lot too and she couldn't blame him for leaving. He had to do what he had to do. She held him tightly while they sobbed together, she understood now why he left, though she felt hurt he didn't tell her anything, he was only human and tried the best he could. She pulled away and held his face:
-I love you Tom Quincy, it doesn't matter what happened anymore, you're here and I'm the happiest I could ever be. You went through something very difficult, I just wish you hadn't done it alone. Kiss me.
He kissed her with tears running down his cheeks that fell into Jude's face. He hungrily deepened the kiss and embraced her. Jude didn't care about what happened anymore, Tommy came back for her and she knew now more than ever how much he cared and loved her. They kissed each other in the moonlight under the stars where the two Love Birds showed their love for each other.
Tommy finally told Jude the truth but Jude didn't care anymore, she listened to him and told him how much she loved him but would it feel different now that she knew? What happened after Sadie and Kwest's steamy kiss? Stay tuned for the next chapter of Instant star.
