Outside D- Sus:
"I can not believe that an actual producer wants to hear us play!" Fifteen year- old Anna-Rita (or Ari to her family and friends) shouted excitedly.
"I know!" her best- friend Marta agreed.
"It's just a contract!" James, Marta's 17 year- old brother said calmly.
"Just a contract Andrews? We've been waiting like our whole lives for this opportunity!" Anna-Rita shot- back.
"Don't let it get to your head Quincy, it ain't good for ya!"
"Do you see me dressing like a slut from one of those magazines?"
"Hey!" Marta said defensively. Marta had gotten her fashion sense from her mother, who was a very acclaimed fashion- designer,
"Sorry Mart, but come on, it's a recording contract!"
Then, for the first time in that conversation Rocky talked, "Can you guys quit arguing for once?" he asked.
"We're not arguing!" Anna- Rita and James said simultaneously.
Marta just put her face in her hands, and groaned.
"Ari, do you wanna hand tonight?' Marta asked, trying to lead the conversation away from the recording contracts.
"Sure, you can come to my place; my Aunt and Uncle are coming over tonight, so yeah…"
"Cool with me."
"Hey Rock, come on! We gotta get to the theatres before Max's date arrives!" James shouted. The two of them had offered their services to Anna- Rita's fraternal twin brother Max. They had started coaching him in the world of "how to get a girl", not that he needed it, and after all he was the son of Tom Quincy.
The Quincy House:
"Hey Dad, I'm home!" Anna- Rita shouted walking inside. "Marta's here!"
"Hey girls!" Tommy said slyly, "How did things go?"
"Perfect Dad!" Anna- Rita, and Marta said together.
Tommy shot Marta a confused glance.
"Should you be calling me Dad?" Tommy asked, "Would your father be okay with it?"
"My father?" Marta questioned, and then paused for a moment. "Oh yeah, the man who donated his sperm for my life, and cheated on my Mom three time!"
"Marta…" Tommy warned.
"What? He's a self- sufficient jerk!"
Tommy sighed; what had happened to Jamie? He used to be so loyal to Jude, Patsy, and Kat. What did happen anyways?
"Where's Mom?" Anna- Rita asked.
"She was in living room playing guitar a few minutes ago; I think she's in the bathroom now." Tommy replied.
"Kay," Anna- Rita said. "Come on Marts, let's go practice!"
Marta sighed, and followed Anna- Rita up to her room; was too much of a good thing, a bad thing?
Quincy Kitchen:
"Hey girl!" Tommy said grabbing Jude by the waist, pulling her close to him, and kissing her on the head.
"Mmmmm…" Jude groaned.
"How is my favorite girl?" Tommy asked, getting a chance too kiss Jude on the lips.
"I burnt the chicken," Jude mumbled.
"It's cool, I don't thing that Sadie and Kwest will mind take- out".
"They're probably used to it now."
"It's fine girl; I think we've all had our share of take- out on tour."
"True," Jude said. "Just don't mention that around the kids," Jude said leaning back into Tommy, who was leaning against the counter.
Jude and Tommy had never told Max and Anna- Rita about their music careers; the questions about their past never came up, they never asked. And, although their kids knew many of the people from their parents' pasts, they never realized that's where they were from. They seemed to know that they were simply some of their parents' oldest friends.
Anna- Rita's Room:
"My Aunt, Uncle, and cousin should be coming soon…" Anna- Rita announced.
At that Marta's eyes lit up; she had a thing for her best- friend's cousin.
"It should be illegal to like anyone in your best- friend's family,"
"If that were illegal, then what would you does about your colossal crush on my brother?" Marta asked.
"I do not like your brother!" Anna- Rita protested.
"Please, you guys flirt like all the time!"
"We do not!" Anna- Rita protested again.
"Uh- huh" Marta said un- convincingly.
"Oh, would you look at the time! Your boyfriend should be any minute now!" Anna- Rita said, getting Marta back for all of her comments on her liking her brother. Okay, so maybe she did like James… no she didn't… who was she kidding? She capital L- Loved James.
The Quincy Kitchen:
"… Yeah, I'd like to order some fried rice, uh… lemon chicken, chow mien, and some edimomi," Tommy said ordering the food, holding the phone with one arm.
With his other arm, he had it wrapped around Jude. He was rubbing her stomach. He was doing two things at once; who knew that Tom Quincy could be so coordinated?
"Ding- Dong!" the doorbell rang.
"I'll get it", Jude whispered in Tommy's other ear (the one her wasn't talking on the phone with).
"Okay," he mouthed back to her.
Jude went to the front door, and opened it. "Hey guys!" she greeted them.
"Hey Jude!" Sadie exclaimed back, "How've you been?"
"Good."
"Something burning?" Kwest asked, snuffing his nose.
"Um…"
"You never were good at home- ec, were you Jude?" Sadie asked.
"Nope!"
Tommy then appeared from the kitchen.
"Hey Uncle Tom!" John greeted his uncle.
"Hey Little Johnny M.!" Tommy said hoping to annoy his nephew.
"Don't call me that…" John mumbled; if he hated anything it was being called "Little Johnny M."
"Hey "Little Tommy Q.!" Kwest said, hoping to piss off Tommy.
"Don't ever call me that," Tommy said coldly.
"Don't call me that then!" John said.
"Fine,"
Just then Anna- Rita, and Marta appeared in the room.
"The food arrived, any ya'll hungry?" Anna- Rita asked, hoping to break the awkwardness. She had picked the "ya'll" up from her Mom's good friend Mason. Who she absolutely adored, and loved. His son Andrew was also a blast to hang out with.
"Hey John!" Marta said slyly.
"Hey Marta!" she said back smoothly.
"Alright, let's go eat, 'cuz I'm hungry!" Jude announced.
Quincy Dinning Room:
"Mmmmm! This chicken is delicious!" Jude said.
"The chicken's burnt!" Sadie said flatly.
Jude rolled her eyes back at her sister.
Meanwhile Marta and John were talking…
"And it was totally awesome! People were there to hear our music! Not some "poser"!" Marta said giving a play- by- play of their afternoon audition at D- Sus.
Kwest couldn't help but over- heat Marta story
"So… Marta… what were you doing at D- Sus?" Kwest asked suspiciously; eying Tommy.
Tommy shrugged back at him.
"We got to audition for the scout, then like a while later they had us audition, and make a demo, and now they want to sign us!" Marta said excitedly.
"Who auditioned you? What was the guys name?" Kwest said, hoping not to bring up the "old days" around the Quincy, and Andrews kids.
"Uh… Liam somebody, I think…" Marta said back.
Now Kwest started eying Tommy even more… Tommy just gave another shrug back.
"Why don't you kids go take a walk, Sadie suggested, noting the circumstances; and that also knowing that the Quincy's lived in a fairly nice, and safe neighborhood.
Marta and John took this opportunity to run out the door; once they were outside the Quincy residence John grabbed Marta's hand, and they ran.
Anna- Rita followed the love- birds at a distance. Pretty soon they arrived at a park, and the two had stopped at a bench. Anna- Rita let the have some "bonding time", and made her way behind a tree nearby…
"Johnny stops it!" Marta giggled. "Stop ticking me! Stop!" Marta giggled some more, "Please?" she asked. John stopped, and turned her around gently by the sides, so that she faced her. He then leaned forward, and she began to lean forward… and they kissed; lightly, and passionately.
Anna- Rita smiled; things were going okay. The world was hers: she could control it; for the time being at least…
A/ N: So… what do you guys think? Do you like it? Do you not like it? Is it okay? Could it use some work? The only way for me to ever know is if you review (Post messaging is cool too)! This was probably the longest fan fiction chapter that I have ever written! Enjoy!
