Ugh... I still can't get the locket open. Hmm... Maybe I should smash it. No, it was probably expensive. Jeez... I'm just not going to deal with it anymore. I give up on the stupid thing.

"RIIIING!" Who's calling now? Tommy? Oh what does he want now?

"Hello?" I answer casually, trying to make it look like I know it's him.

"Jude, it's Tommy."

"Who?"

"Tommy, Jude please just listen to me. I am so sorry about what happen last night. I did not mean for it to come out like that. Believe me Jude, if I could tell you what I'm thinking I would in a heartbeat." He probably doesn't mean what he is saying now.

"Right Tommy, but you still said it. So I decided to just forget you." I smile to myself. He hates when I hate him.

"Jude, please... I really need to explain. I thought... Well I'll explain if you'll come meet me. Can you come to my place?" He asks.

"And risk running into the Queen of Horror, I think not. I guess I can meet you at the studio. I have to meet Shay there later anyways." I wonder if that was a good idea to tell him that.

"Shay?" I can tell by the way he says his name that he still doesn't like Shay.

"Yes, Shay. Goodbye Tommy, I'll see you later." -Click-

Damn it I need to call Shay.

571-667-8679. "RIIING, RIIING"

"Hello?" He answered.

"Hey, when do you want to meet? I'm meeting Tommy in like 10 minutes." I can he him sighing.

"Tommy?" Wow he said Tommy like Tommy said Shay, weird.

"Yes, Tommy, he is home."

"Oh okay, then just call me when your done. Love you- I mean bye." -Click-

Love you? Did he seriously just say that? Damn it, I'm going to have to deal with that too. Great... I guess I should go get ready for my "talk" with Tommy.

15 minutes later at G Major

"I'm glad you came." Tommy says as I walk though the entrance.

"Yeah, well I didn't have anything better to do." I mutter hoping it will make him feel bad.

"Well come here, sit." He smiles that smile he always did when he used to "love" me. I hate that smile... Okay so I don't hate it, I love it, and it makes me melt every time I see it... And he knows that.

"So what is it you want to talk about?" I ask sitting across from him.

"Jude, I am so, so sorry about yesterday. I was just stressed out. I really didn't mean it."

"Sorry isn't going to cut it this time, Tommy. I waited 3 years for you to come home, and you come home to tell me you married that..." I pause thinking of a way to state what I think about Jess without offending him. "That girl to forget me." I can feel the knot forming in my throat. Hold it in, Jude, don't let him see you cry.

"Please, Jude. You know I could never forget you." He smiles standing up.

"No, Tommy... Maybe you can't forget me, but I can sure as hell forget you." I jump up too.

"Jude..." Tommy says walking towards me to lock me in a hug. I wait for him to get close enough that could hug me.

"Back off, Quincy! I'm tired of dealing with you crap. Just leave me alone!" Now time to storm off.

"I didn't mean it!" He calls.

"That doesn't mean you didn't say it."

"I said it 'cause I still love you!" Okay so that makes me stop dead in my tracks.

"N-no you don't..." I stutter not being fully focused anymore.

"You what!" I hear from behind me. I swerve around to see Jess standing in the door of G Major. This is not the weekend I planned to have. "You do not love her... This is just that fight we had last night talking." Jess denies it. Fight? They had a fight?

"The fight was about her Jess!" I guess it's time for me to intervene.

"Tommy, you don't love me, you're married."

"Jude! Didn't you get it last night? When I asked about the locket? You said you opened it!" Truth time, oh joy.

"No, Tommy, I didn't open it. I didn't to look like an idiot so I told you I had opened it. But the stupid locket never came open. It's been stuck forever so I've decided not to care anymore." I yell, feeling the steamy tears slide down my cheek. I have to get out of here. But I can't run out the door, Jess is blocking it. I know! Run to a studio, Jude!

As I run off I hear Jess say to Tommy, "We are going to get marriage help."

Studio B. Perfect. I walk in and close the door behind me and let myself cry. How could this be happening? I wish everything could go back to normal again.

"Are you okay, Jude?" Oh God, someone else is in here!
