"Hey Jude," said Jude's ex-producer, Kwest.
"Ha-ha Kwest, you're such a comedian. You should really think about leaving the music industry and hitting the road with Sadie."
"Woahhhh, what's with you today?" said Kwest in a concerned tone.
"I'm sorry Kwest, I just don't want to meet my new producer. I want you to produce me, we work great together. What if I don't like this new guy? What if he doesn't like me? What if –"
"Slow down girl. One, I'm not going anywhere. Two, it'll be good for you to work with new people. Three, I can guarantee you'll like this guy, and he'll definitely like you."
"Thanks Kwest. You're so sweet, you always know how to make me feel better. Remind me again why you're going out with Sadie?" Jude said, smiling at Kwest.
"Oh you're so funny Jude. I think you should leave the music biz and hit the road to become a comedian," Sadie said, grinning. She knew Kwest was a sweet guy, and she definitely didn't deserve him.
"No one's leaving the music biz as long as Big D's in charge," said a deep voice behind Sadie.
"Hey D, where's my new producer? I wanna get this whole introduction thing over with," Jude said, trying to sound a little excited.
"He's around here somewhere," Darius said, looking around G-Major. "Oh, there he is. Hey T, come over here man! Come meet Jude!"
Jude, Sadie, and Kwest all turned to where Darius was looking. There stood Tom Quincy aka Lil' Tommy Q, Mr. Playboy himself. Jude and Sadie's jaws dropped; Sadie's in awe that it was Lil' Tommy Q, and Jude's in disgust.
"Darius, are you serious?!? Lil' Tommy Q???? That's like a death sentence! Come on!" Jude cried out.
"First off, the name's Tom Quincy. Don't you ever call me Lil' Tommy Q again. Second, I could care less about you or your music. I'm here as a favor for Darius," said Tommy in a firm, stone cold voice.
Jude didn't know what to say, but she figured she should apologize. "Sorry," she said, sticking out her hand. "My name's Jude…yeah…"
She turned to Kwest and hissed, "And you said we would get along!"
Kwest looked at her apologetically and turned to Tommy. "Hey man! Long time no see." They did a manly hug thing and Tommy turned to Sadie.
"Girlfriend?" he asked. Kwest nodded and Tommy gave him a high five.
"Yo T, I'm not paying you to stand around and gossip. Get to work!" Darius said in his usual tone.
Jude and Tommy both sighed and headed toward the studio. They reached for the doorknob at the same time, and they both felt a spark. Jude gasped and pulled her hand back quickly. "Sorry," she squeaked.
