It was two days before Jude Harrison and SME were scheduled to arrive home. They had two more performances left and they were excited to come home. Jude had missed her family and friends. She had missed Tommy even though he had hurt her before she left.
The next to last performance went great. They then had an after party they could attend. Jude and Speed decided to skip the after party and just head back to the bus.
At the after party, Kyle and Wally ran into Jamie.
"Guys, what is up?" Jamie said as he approached them.
"Jamie, is that you? What are you doing here?" Kyle asked surprised.
Jamie looked different. It looked as if he had grown up and found some sort of style.
"I came to see Jude and SME. I am going to the performance tomorrow night too. You guys rocked tonight. Speed is playing better then ever, what's gotten into him?" Jamie asked.
"Well, we would tell you, but you might n…" Kyle started to say as Wally cut him off.
"You might not understand; it is a tour thing." Wally finished.
"Ok, where is Speed and Jude anyways. I am dying to see Jude." Jamie said as he looked around.
"Jude went back to the bus, she was tired. Speed found a girl." Kyle said a little worried.
"Oh, has Speed been keeping an eye on her?" Jamie asked.
"Very good eye." Wally said trying not to laugh.
"Ok, well I am going to go. I might stop by the bus and say hi." Jamie said as he started to leave.
Kyle and Wally said bye, then realized Jamie said he might stop at the bus. They quickly grabbed their stuff and ran. They tried to call Jude and Speed the whole way, but they wouldn't answer their phones. They could only hope that they did go straight to bed.
When they got to the bus, Jamie had just arrived.
"Don't go in!" Kyle shouted.
"Why?" Jamie asked confused.
"We called Jude, she is sick, not a good time to see her." Wally lied.
"Funny, she wouldn't answer her phone when I called." Jamie replied.
"Oh, well, we just talked to her." Kyle then said.
Jamie just ignored them and walked in. He had been in the bus a couple of times. Kyle and Wally stayed in the kitchen/family room. Jamie went to Jude's bunk. There was a crack in the door and he slowly opened it as he said, "Jude, guess who?"
When the door was half way open, Kyle and Wally heard several screams and Jamie quickly came out.
"What happened?" Kyle asked as Wally walked back.
Kyle walked over to Wally. They stood there trying not to laugh. Jude and Speed were in Jude's room both stripped down to their underwear sitting on the bed. Speed was holding the back of Jude's bra together as they tried to get up and grab a blanket or something.
"Damn, Jamie, we told you not to come here." Wally said.
"You said she was sick, not doing my former best friend." Jamie replied angrily.
"Jamie, I can explain." Jude said as she wrapped her self in her blanket.
"Don't bother Jude. Speed, I trusted you with her. You were supposed to watch her, not do her. I am out." Jamie said as he left.
For the next few minutes, everyone just stood in silence.
"What about watch me?" Jude asked confused.
"Oh, Speed was supposed to watch out for you. Jamie asked him because Jamie was hoping you two might rework things. You were not supposed to know." Kyle explained.
"Is that true?" Jude asked looking at Speed.
"Yea, but in the process of protecting you, I fell hard for you." Speed replied as he wrapped his arms around Jude.
"Don't you guys think I should of known if Jamie wanted to work things out or not?" Jude asked a little upset.
"Well, yes and no. He asked us not to say anything, and mostly keep you away from Shay. Wally and I didn't say anything because we knew Speed was hoping to win your love." Kyle explained.
"This is just great. My best friend/ex boyfriend wanted to work things out, asks one of his good friends to watch out for me. Shows up to surprise me and finds me with his now ex friend." Jude said.
"Here is some advice, always answer your phones when we call, no matter what you two are doing. At least this was just Jamie. It could have been worse, it could have been…" Wally was saying when he heard someone else finish his sentence.
"It could have been Tommy." A dark figure said from the front of the bus.
