Tommy's POV
Ok, I know I'm a total jerk for doing that to Jude, but ya gotta hear me out…she's my artist and 19! I'm supposed to be the guy she comes to for help with her music. As much as I would love to be the guy she comes home to ever night, I can't…
I really don't want to face Jude today, but D will kill me if I don't show up. Maybe I can fake sick, hmm…Nah, that would never work. I could get Portia to cover me, she owes me for the time she broke Darius's gold tiger statue and I took the blame. I really don't know what Darius's obsession with gold is, or tigers for that matter…I guess I gotta face the music sometime…hah, the music, get it? …man I crack myself up
So I was sitting in my chair in the studio waiting for Jude and all of a sudden I hear her laughing. I look out the door and see her flirting with that guitarist dude, Speiderman.
"Oh Speid, stop it," she said, laughing. "You're too funny!" Then she put her hand on his chest and looked at me…it wasn't pretty. Let's just say if looks could kill, I'd be dead right now.
She walked into the studio still flirting with Speiderman, and the rest of SME behind them. Seriously, what does anyone see in that kid? He fools around all the time, eats way to many chimichangas, and can't stop saying dude. This whole thing was getting to be a little too much for me, so I decided to stop it. I cleared my throat and Jude looked over at me, rolling her eyes.
"Heyy Lil' Tommy Q! What's happenin?!?" she said, obviously trying to get a rise out me.
"Just get in the booth and do your job," I said. I wasn't going to give her the satisfaction of knowing that she got to me.
"Ok, well I wrote this song last night," she said, looking at me. "Hit it guys!"

Yeah oh
Jude finished and someone behind me clapped. "That was awesome Jude!"
Kwest, oh how I love my best friend…
"Thanks Kwest," Jude said as she smiled sweetly at him.
She then looked at me and said snidely, "What did you think Lil' Tommy Q? Good enough for ya?"
That girl is going to drive me insane, I thought.
"Well actually your voice was really scratchy, and to be honest, you kind of sounded like a man," I said. I know that was harsh, but if she can insult me, why can't I do the same to her?
I looked at Jude and her jaw dropped.
"Right, well I'm gonna go make a sandwich. Anyone who wants to join is more than welcome," Kwest said.
"No way man," Speiderman replied. "I wanna watch the rest of this."
"Just come on man!" Kwest said.
Thank you Kwest, I thought. He and SME left, closing the door behind them. Wait, that leaves me alone with Jude. Oh no, this is bad. Bad with a capital B.
"I wouldn't talk about sounding like the opposite sex Quincy. I'm not the one who spent years in a boy band shaking their a and sounding like a bunch of whining girls," she said.
Please, I thought. Is that the best she can do?
"Oh wait," she continued. "You really are a girl, especially with the amount of hairgel you use. You're worse than Sadie, and that's saying something.
Oh no she didn't. She did not just go there. Nobody, and I mean nobody, makes jokes about my hair.
"I wouldn't talk, Ms. High Maintenance," I said.
"Me, high maintenance?" she asked.
I nodded and gave her a look that said…DUH.
"Please," she said. "This coming from the guy who calls in sick on bad hair days?"
Ok, that's it. Enough with the hair cracks.
"I don't skip work on bad hair days, I don't have 'em," I said.
Jude scoffed and said, "Please Quincy, you're not as hot as you think you are. In fact, you're really ugly. You should start thinking about plastic surgery. But wait, it wouldn't matter, you're getting old anyways."
Ok now I've really had enough.
"I didn't see you saying how ugly I was when you were kissing me," I said. Oh s. Did I say that out loud?
"Either you have a really bad memory or you're having fantasies about me, cuz that never happened," she said, getting angry. "At least that's what someone told me."
"Is it okay to come in here, or will I get killed?" Kwest asked.
Jude turned to Kwest and said, "Kwest, I could never kill you! Then Sadie would kill me."
Kwest laughed and turned to me.
"So T, we better start mixing that song. D wants it by tonight," he said.
"Oooh, can I help?" Jude asked, all excited. Kwest hesitated and looked at me. I just shrugged. He looked back at Jude, who was doing a puppy dog pout. Wow, she is even hotter when she's begging, I thought. It'd be even hotter if we were at my house, no wait, the soundboard, yeah…I had a smile on my face now. Aah wait, don't go there Tom! My smile quickly slid off my face when I heard Kwest say, "Sure Jude. You can help."
I sighed and sat down in my chair as I glared at Kwest. It was going to be a long night.
