Chapter 21
Tommy left the hotel irate. How could Jude do this, just up and forget him like that. He wanted to call her but he couldn't. No one knew why he disappeared and no one was. He couldn't omit he that he had screwed up and ran away from his mistakes to only have it find him once again. When he got to his hotel, he started thinking up ways to break up Jude and Speed. He then remembered, Speed had a past with Wally's cousin and she still had feelings for him. He knew more then one would think; he had to listen to those guys talk about their stupid high school stuff. Now he was happy that he had.
"Hi, is there a Miss Monica Robbins there?" Tommy asked into his phone.
"This is she; may I ask who this is?" Monica replied confused.
"This is Tom Quincy, your Cousin Wally's producer." Tommy replied.
"Ok, now why are you calling me, not that I mind, but why?" Monica asked really confused.
"Can you be on a plane tomorrow morning around 9?" Tommy asked.
"Depends."
"Vin has been real down lately. I overheard the guys talking and he said that he was still in love with you and Jude was only to make you jealous. I figured brining you out here would cheer him up. It is what he needs."
"He loves me?"
"That is what I heard."
"Not Jude, the girl the press says he is with?"
"Nope, she is just a joke. They are not together at all, so can you?"
"You bet, where do I get my ticket?"
"Just be at G-Major at 7 in the morning and everything will play out, just don't tell Wally or the guys."
"Ok, thanks a million, I can't wait!" Monica said then hung up.
Ok, Speed is taken care of, now Jude. Who should I call? Shay? Nah, they made up. Jamie? No, that would be cruel to him and to Jude, Patsy would kill her. I could always just go after her myself. Yea, that is what I will do. Tommy thought. He then went to bed; tomorrow night was going to be great.
It was around 10 am; Jude, SME, and Mason were at a local restaurant eating breakfast. They had managed to get a wrap around booth. Jude had Speed on one side of her and Mason on the other. Wally and Kyle each sat on the end. Kyle and Wally noticed a guy sitting off to the side who had on a sweatshirt with the hood up and big sunglasses that looked expensive. They knew it was Tommy spying on Jude and Speed. They usually got mad at Jude and Speed at meals when they sat in booths. Speed always had his arms wrapped around Jude and they were constantly exchanging kisses and off in their own little world giggling.
"Hey dudes, make sure to act extra 'cute.' I think I saw some publicity peeps around here eyeing you two." Wally said to Jude and Speed while Kyle pointed out Tommy to Mason.
"Huh? I thought you guys hated us at meals when we acted 'cute'?" Speed asked.
"We do, but this is for the pub peeps. This is the only time we are going to allow you two to be like that." Kyle replied.
"Well, I am going to take advantage of it." Jude said as she kissed Speed.
By the time their food arrived, Tommy was furious with what he had seen and what he still was seeing.
"Dude, you have whipped cream on your nose from your hot chocolate." Kyle told Jude.
"Someone looks cute like that." Mason joked.
"Look at me." Speed told Jude. Speed then kissed her nose licking the whipped cream off.
"How is everyone's breakfast?" The waitress asked.
"Great." They all replied.
"I will be right back." Wally said as he got up.
Wally walked by Tommy and said, "Like what you see Quincy? You are pretty obvious." And then walked on. Tommy looked over at the table over at the table to see if the others noticed. He saw Kyle glaring at him and he knew Mason had seen him. He didn't know whether Jude and Speed had, they seemed to be way into each other to notice him or so he hoped, but that was going to change.
When Jude, SME, and Mason left, Tommy held up a paper as they walked by. Jude and Speed walked out hand in hand and didn't see Tommy; Mason, Kyle, and Wally all walked out and gave Tommy a mean look and mumbled things as they passed.
At the rehearsal space the practiced for an hour if not longer.
"We need to have some fun." Jude said as she turned the radio.
"Yea and the radio is so fun." Kyle said sarcastically.
"It can be if we make it. Let's dance Kyle." Jude replied as she made her way across the room. Kyle joined her. They were acting stupid and dancing around.
"You guys look so gay, no offense Mason." Speed said.
"None taken Vincent, but they are having fun." Mason replied.
"What the hell, lets join." Wally said as he got up.
Within five minutes all five were dancing around the stage being stupid. A rap song came on. Kyle pretended to be the one singing and Jude and Wally decided to be the "booty girls" in it. Speed helped Kyle rap. Mason recorded it; this was going to bring them big laughs.
"Looks like we are hard at work," A voice said from backstage.
"Who is here?" Speed asked as the all stopped and looked around.
"The one and only, Tom Quincy." The voice said as he appeared.
"What the hell are you doing here?" Speed replied now furious.
"Came to see my girl, Jude." Tommy replied as he took off his sunglasses.
Jude opened her mouth, but said nothing. She ended up turning around and running.
"I will go get her, Speed stay here." Wally said as he took off after her.
"Stay away from my girl Quincy. You destroyed her and it took a long time to get her back to her old self." Speed said getting in Tommy's face.
"You don't tell me what to do Vincent. I am her producer and I have all the right to speak to her." Tommy replied.
"She is my girlfriend and you are not stealing her from me. She loves me and not you. You hurt her in many ways. Last time I checked, Kwest took your job. I suggest you leave." Speed said.
"I will get that job back, D and I have an agreement. You don't boss me around you little wanna be rockers. I will deal with you later." Tommy replied then left.
"Jude, are you here?" Wally yelled as he entered the tour bus.
"Yes." Jude said.
Wally found her. She was sitting on her bunk crying. "Jude, it is going to be ok, come here."
"No it isn't." Jude cried as she buried her face into Wally's shoulder.
Wally wrapped his arms around her and held her close as she cried. "Jude, don't let him play games with you. You have Speed; he loves you more then anything. Tommy is a self centered ass."
"He is going to do anything to break us up. He did it once. I love Speed with everything in me but when Tommy left, he took a part of me with him." Jude said as she cried.
"Jude, just don't let him get to you, remember, you have four people on this bus that truly care for you." Wally said as Speed walked in.
"Jude, honey, are you ok?" Speed asked as he sat down beside Wally.
Jude looked up and quickly dived into Speed's lap. "I love you Speed. I truly love you." Jude said as she squeezed Speed.
"Jude, I love you too. I know you love me." Speed replied as he held Jude tight in his arms as he looked at Wally confused.
"Tommy." Wally said before he got up and left.
"Speed, promise me you won't let Tommy interfere with us. I can't lose you again; you are the only person who cares for me." Jude said.
"I promise. I am not the only person who cares for you. Sadie, Kwest, Wally, Jamie, Kyle and Mason care for you and love you too."
Jude stopped crying a little and looked up at Speed, "Really?"
"Yes Red, I am just the only one who can physically show you." Speed joked.
"I am not going to ruin this Speed. You mean the world to me." Jude said. She then kissed Speed. "I love you."
Tommy was outside the door and heard Jude say that Speed was her world and that she loved him. He just laughed at how that was all going to change tonight. He was going to win Jude back and she was going to hate Speed.
