I am so happy all of you liked those chapters. They were really sad. But I promise, it gets better! I'm gonna make it an even 20 chapters.
"Speed, we gotta go, this song needs to be done by Friday," Jude said. Speed was rushing to finish his food so that he and Jude could get to the studio.
"Done!" he exclaimed and walked out the door with her.
"Are you sure you want to do this? I mean, we can work with Kwest," Jude said.
"No, he's your producer. He's gotten you this far, he might as well take you all the way," Speed said.
"Thanks," Jude said.
"What? No 'you're the greatest?'" Speed asked.
"Nope, I don't think I need to tell you that for you to know," she said.
"You're sweet," he said, kissing her. She lightly pushed him off and smiled.
"Later," she said, and got in her car.
"You know that song we've been randomly coming up with?" Speed asked.
"Yeah? What about it?" Jude asked.
"Let's record it," Speed said.
"Really? When!" Jude asked.
"When we finish it. I love it, its hilarious," Speed said.
"It doesn't fit with the rest of the songs," Jude said.
"I know. I just wanna do it. For fun," Speed said.
"Okay. I'll ask Jamie if he could help," Jude said.
"Sweet. I love you," he said, grabbing her hand and kissing her knuckles.
"You shouldn't distract me when I'm driving, I might kill us," Jude joked.
"Okay, I'll wait until you stop to become a distraction," Speed said.
She parked in the G Major parking lot and kissed him. He smiled and got out of the car.
"You know what? Speed, can I talk to Tommy? Like alone first?" Jude asked. She was feeling a bit uneasy about this. She didn't want Speed to get the wrong impression.
"Yeah. I'll go get a sandwich from Kwest," Speed said.
"Okay. Thanks," she said. When they got inside, she went into Darius' office to find out where Tommy was.
"He should be around," Darius said. Jude walked around the studio looking for him.
"Tommy, can I come in?" Jude asked when she found him.
"I didn't think you'd want to," Tommy said.
"I don't, but I know that I need to do this. I don't know, was I sending you the wrong signals or something? Because your kiss has caused these past few days to been the worst ones of my life. Speed, he saw you kiss me. And he took off," Jude said.
"Where'd he go?" Tommy asked.
"I don't know. I spent hours upon hours with no sleep looking for him. I almost fell asleep a few times while driving, because I needed to find him," Jude said.
"Look, Jude. I'm really sorry. I thought you wanted me to do that. When you said no, I thought you meant that you didn't want to because of the age thing, or because I dated your sister. And if I knew Spiederman was there, I wouldn't have done it. I see the way he looks at you Jude. I just never noticed you felt the same about him," Tommy said.
"Yeah, well, I do. But you're still my producer, and Speed said he'll do the song with you," Jude said.
"Wait, is that what your fight was about?" Tommy asked.
"Yeah," Jude said.
"Jude I'm so sorry. Can I talk to him, like man to man?" Tommy asked.
"Sure," Jude said. She went to look for Speed, who was eating a sandwich with Kwest.
"Vin, you just ate," Jude said.
"It's not possible to turn down a Kwest-wich. What's up?" he asked.
"Tommy wants to talk to you," Jude said. Speed looked at Kwest who nodded.
"Alright. I'll be right back," he said, kissing her lightly on the lips, surprising her.
"I take it he told you," Jude said.
"Yeah. I'm happy for you two," Kwest said.
"He's, amazing. I could honestly go on forever about how much he means to me," Jude said.
"It's strange what a few months alone with a person could do to you," Kwest said.
"Heh, yeah. We hated each other," Jude chuckled.
"Vincent and Jude, you two pair up," Mr. Moony, their 6th grade biology teacher, said.
"Ew I can't work with him," Jude squealed.
"Pair up, and start dissecting," Mr. Moony said.
"Speed, this is gross," Jude complained.
"Yeah, I know, I cant believe he partnered us," Speed said.
"I meant the frog," Jude said.
"I think it's pretty cute," Speed said, picking it up. He held it by its (hands?) and made it dance.
"Speed stop, its gross," Jude said.
"Awh come on Harrison, can't take a little froggie?" he said, thrusting it in her face.
"Stop it," she said. He knew she meant it, so he stopped and did the dissecting himself.
"Sorry dude," he said when they were done.
"Apology not accepted," she said.
"Really, I am. I didn't mean to freak you out," he said, making puppy dog eyes at Jude.
"Okay, just don't do it again. Or ever make that face again," she said, kicking him in the butt.
"Deal," he said, kicking her back.
Jude had a smile on her face as she thought about growing up with Speed.
"He did have some nice moments though," Jude said.
"Why the hell did you win Instant Star? You're ugly, and you can't sing," Roxanne, Speed's then girlfriend said to Jude. Jude couldn't take everyone's sudden hatred of her. If she would've known that everyone would be so mean, she wouldn't have done Instant Star.
"What the hell is your problem, Roxy? I'm sick of your constant Jude bashing. I'm sick of everyone's constant Jude bashing. Dude's an awesome rock goddess and the judges saw that. Dude, don't listen to anyone, you're beautiful," Speed said.
Jude smiled. She thought he would join in, and instead he defended her.
"Thanks Speed," she said, hugging him.
"No problem," he said.
When it happened, she just thought he was saying it to make her feel better. Now she knew he meant it.
"Actually, he wasn't that bad," Jude said.
"Who wasn't that bad?" Speed asked, walking in.
"You," she said.
"When?" he asked.
"Jude was just thinking about how you two were before you went on tour with each other," Kwest said.
"Like when you told off Roxy and everyone for talking bad about me. And you gave me the nickname 'awesome rock goddess'," Jude said.
"You are one. I've always thought you were," Speed said.
"Anyone ready for some singing?" Tommy asked, popping into the room.
"I don't know, anyone up for some piano playing?" Jude asked.
"Only if you let me sing too," Speed said.
"Deal," Jude said and they followed Tommy into the studio.
