Pictures Of You by The Last Goodnight.
So read and be sure to review this time!


Chapter 7

"Wow, I would say I am shocked to see you four here, but that would be a lie." Mr. Nealy said as he walked into Friday detention.

"We would say the same, but it would be a lie too!" Kyle said overly enthused.

"So, you know the drill. Go to sleep, be good and we will leave early probably. I got a few calls to make. I will return, sadly." Mr. Nealy said as he left the room.

"Alright, I am sleeping. Need some rest before band night." Kyle said as he laid his head down.

"I second that." Wally stated as he too laid his head down.

Once Jude and Speed thought Kyle and Wally were both asleep, they started passing notes back and forth. Even once, Jude leaned over and gave Speed a quick kiss.

What Jude and Speed didn't know was that Kyle and Wally were awake the whole time and watching them. Kyle and Wally felt everything was falling into place for them to catch Jude and Speed.

---------------

"I am bored." Jude said as she and SME lounged around 620.

"Me too, I don't want to play anymore either." Wally agreed.

"I think I broke my ankle." Kyle said as he looked at his foot that was propped up.

"Dude, you were not meant to jump off the stairs while trying to rock out on my guitar. Thank god my baby is alright." Speed said as he looked over at his guitar and blew it a kiss.

"Glad to know the guitar comes before his friends." Kyle said as he rolled his eyes.

"How about truth or dare?" Jude suggested.

"I am game." Wally stated.

"Count me in." Kyle added.

"I have no say obviously." Speed said not to sure about Jude's idea. Though Wally's mom had claimed last week she had not told her son, he was still hesitant.

"Ok, I am going first since I am injured." Kyle declared. "Speed, truth or dare?" Kyle asked.

"Dare." Speed said instantly.

"I dare you to." Kyle said and then stopped as he thought about it. "I dare you to call Wally's mom and tell her you think she has a nice rack." Kyle said with a smirk.

"But his dad will kill me!" Speed protested.

"Dude, it is a dare." Kyle said with a smile as Wally laughed.

"Fine." Speed said realizing one thing, he could block his number. Kyle didn't say anything about that.

"Let's hear it." Wally said as Speed dialed his phone.

"Hello?" Wally's mom said through the phone.

"Hey Melinda, your rack is totally banging. Love it, never get a breast reduction please." Speed said into the phone then hung up.

"Oh my god, that was great." Kyle said. "Wally's dad is going to kill you tomorrow."

"Whatever, my turn! Wally, truth or dare?" Speed asked.

"Dare." Wally replied after thinking it through.

"Dare you to kiss Kyle on the lips." Speed said with a smirk.

"I hate you." Wally said as he went along with his dare.

"I hate you too." Kyle said after Wally kissed him.

"But you can't catch me, crip." Speed smarted off.

"Jude, truth or dare?" Wally asked.

"Truth, I am not kissing anyone or calling anyone." Jude stated.

"Fine, Jude, are you a virgin?" Wally asked.

Jude instantly froze up, she looked over at Speed who looked nervous for her answer as well.

"No, and that is all you are getting." Jude said as her face turned red.

"Wally, you idiot, you should have her if she was a virgin and who she lost it to if she wasn't." Kyle said as she slapped Wally.

"Kyle, truth or dare?" Jude asked.

"Truth, dare might be painful if I have to get up." Kyle replied.

"Ok, what was the real reason you were not allowed to have that new teacher, Miss Evans, for a teacher?" Jude asked as Wally and Speed suddenly sat up in curiosity.

"Last year, right after she got hired, I met her at a bar with my sister. We kind of hit it off and ended up in bed. I thought she was younger, like a student, and she thought I was older since I was out at a bar with my sister. I went to school the next week and saw her. We were talking and I kissed her. She didn't make an effort to push me away though, but the principal saw it. I told the principal I thought she was hot so Speed dared me to do it and luckily he bought it. But to be safe, they made it so I was not allowed to have her at all." Kyle told them.

"I am offended we didn't know, especially since you reeled me into it." Speed said.

"I used you because I knew it would let me get away with it." Kyle told Speed.

"Ok, my turn again…" Kyle said.

For another hour, it went on with truth or dare, and then it was time to leave.

---------------

"So, the guys are gone." Speed said as he walked back in 620 to find Jude there.

"Yea, they are." Jude replied with a smile.

"Do you have any plans tomorrow?" Speed asked.

"Breakfast with Sadie and Kwest, that is all." Jude replied.

"Cool, want to hang out after?" Speed asked as he looked down a little nervously.

"I would love to." Jude said as she walked up to him.

"Great, also, Lynli and I have a dinner date with my dad tomorrow night. He said I was allowed to bring a friend and I was sort of wondering if you would like to come with me and Lynli? I know she would love it if you came." Speed asked.

"You want to take me to meet your dad?" Jude asked sort of shocked. She had never met Speed's dad and barely knew his mom.

"Yea, I would really like it if you met him and he could see how wonderful you are." Speed replied as Jude took his hand in hers.

"It is a date." Jude said as Speed then leaned in and kissed her.

---------------

Jude and Speed were sitting in the back corner of a little café enjoying their lunch together.

"This is so nice." Jude said as she finished her lunch.

"It is, I really like taking you out and spending time with you." Speed said as he shyly looked at Jude. He didn't know why she made him feel that way, but she did.

"So, what should we do until it is time for us to get ready for dinner?" Jude asked.

"I don't know, what do you want to do?" Speed replied.

"I don't care." Jude said as Speed's phone rang.

"Sorry." Speed said as he hung up the phone. "That was Lynli's friend's mom. She is upset for some reason and wants me to come get her. I am sorry to ruin our date, but I have to get my sister. You know?"

"Why don't I go with you to get Lynli, then we get my stuff from my house, and I just come over to your house and get ready there?" Jude suggested as she watched Speed flag down the waitress and shoved his credit card at her.

"You are the best Jude, you seriously are." Speed said as he signed the check and then grabbed Jude's hand.

---------------

"What picture do you wants to color?" Lynli asked Jude as she sat on her lap.

"Whatever one you pick is fine." Jude replied as she watched Lynli flip through the coloring book for the perfectpicture for her.

"So this is how it is, are you dating me just so you can color with my sister?" Speed asked jokingly as he walked into Lynli's room after getting off the phone with his mom.

"Dang, you caught on to me." Jude said jokingly as Lynli handed Jude a page from her coloring book.

"Do you wants to color too Vinnie?" Lynli asked.

"I suppose." Speed replied as he went and sat down beside Jude and Lynli to color. Just what he wanted to do on his date, color with his little sister.

---------------

"Do you thinks Daddy will thinks I look purty?" Lynli asked as she walked into the country club holding Jude and Speed's hands.

"I think he will find you gorgeous Lynli. Jude did a wonderful job of getting you ready." Speed replied as he looked down at his little sister.

"I think you look pretty." Jude said as she looked at Lynli who smiled up at her.

"Vin! Lynli! Over here!" They heard someone yell.

"Looks! It is Daddy!" Lynli said as she and Speed spotted their dad.

"Hey guys." Speed's dad said as he picked Lynli up and kissed her.

"Hi Daddy! I colored yous a purty picture, Vinnie has it." Lynli told her dad happily.

"How are you Vin?" Speed's dad asked.

"I am good. Dad, I would like you to meet my…my…friend, Jude." Speed said nervously. What was he suppose to call Jude?

"Nice to meet you Jude, I am Eric." Speed's dad said as she shook Jude's hand.

"Nice to meet you too." Jude replied

"Let's go in and sit down." Eric said as Lynli grabbed Jude's hand to drag her in.

"Wasn't she your…" Eric was asking Speed, until he interrupted.

"Yea, she was." Speed replied as he walked to the table and sat down.

Five minutes after they had all sat down and ordered drinks they heard a loud female voice calling Speed's dad. Then they saw a young blonde come running up the table. Speed about spilled his drink when the blonde kissed his dad. She looked to be only a couple years older then him.

"Vin, Lynli, I would like you to meet my fiancée, Anna." Eric said as the blonde sat down.

"What is a fi-nacy?" Lynli asked.

"That means I am going to marry her." Eric explained.

"Speed, are you ok?" Jude asked as she started patting Speed's back as he coughed furiously.

"Yea." Speed managed to squeak out.

"Oh my god, you are Jude Harrison!" Anna shouted as she sat down and saw Jude's face.

"Yea, I am." Jude replied feeling awkward.

"Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, Eric, you never told me that your son was the lead guitarist of the Spiederman Mind Explosions and Jude Harrison's back up. I love, love, love Jude's music!" Anna said in excitement.

"I think I am going to be sick." Speed whispered to Jude, who kissed his cheek.

"I never thought about it, to me he is just my son Vin." Eric said as he put his arm around Anna.

"This is totally awesome, my step son is famous! Everyone is going to envy me." Anna said happily as she took a sip of her wine.

"Kill me please." Speed whispered to Jude.

"Am I going to have two mommies now?" Lynli asked confused.

---------------

"Jude, is that you?" Speed and Jude heard from behind.

"Mason?" Jude asked turning around. "Hey!" Jude said jumping up to hug him.

"What are you two doing here?" Mason asked.

"Dinner with my dad and his fiancée." Speed stated.

"She looks…young?" Mason replied quietly.

"Try a sorority whore who wants money." Speed said not bothering to whisper.

"So Mason, why are you here?" Jude asked.

"I was asked to sing here. You guys should perform a song or two." Mason replied.

"No, Jude is not performing. My future step-mother might die due to excitement. Wait, perform Jude." Speed stated.

"I am not performing tonight. Why don't you do something, show your dad that you can really perform." Jude said knowing that Speed's dad thought of his band as a joke.

"Call me up after a couple songs and I will do one." Speed stated after a minute of thinking.

"Vinnie!" They heard Lynli squeal.

"What?" Speed asked turning around.

"Can I say hi to cowpoke?" Lynli asked causing Jude and Speed to let out a little laugh.

"Hey Lynli." Mason said walking over to Lynli and hugging her.

"Hi Cowpoke, I didn't gets to play with you when Vinnie tooks me to work last time." Lynli stated.

"I am sorry, but I have to go sing. I will see you later Lynli." Mason said as he walked off.

"Vin, what are you teaching her?" Eric asked Speed once Mason was gone.

"I don't know?" Speed replied pretending to be clueless.

"That was rude of her and I know she got it from you." Eric stated.

"Sorry dad, but come on. It is Mason, a gay cowboy. He doesn't care and he finds it cute from her. It's not like I have her going around saying come her fag or something. You let her call Wally and Kyle dumdums." Speed said in defense.

"That is because it is Kyle and Wally." Eric replied.

"So Vin, what is it like being famous?" Anna asked curiously.

---------------

"You are doing it all wrong!" Lynli shouted as they all waited for their meals.

"Lynli, no outburst please." Eric said.

"But she is doing it all wrong!" Lynli protested.

"She wanted to play tic tac toe and got mad because I won." Anna stated not knowing what the deal was.

"I tolds you that you can'ts put your o there." Lynli said mad.

"You can't do that." Anna argued.

"I don't likes her Daddy, find a new step mommy." Lynli said as she stuck out her bottom lip in a frown.

"Honey, it doesn't work like that." Eric said now getting a little frustrated.

"Hey Lynli, want me to play with you?" Jude asked trying to stop this fight before Speed butted in.

"Yes, you knows how to play." Lynli said as she snatched the crayon from Anna and gave it to Jude.

"So, Vin, how are you doing in school?" Eric asked once he noticed Lynli was content with Jude.

"Ok. Nothing exciting, I can't wait to graduate." Speed replied as he watched Anna and her dad smile at each other.

"You are graduating? That is so awesome. So am I, I am graduating college though." Anna said with a smile.

"Nice." Speed said forcing a smile.

---------------

By the time the main course was over, Speed wanted to throw up. Anna kept leaning over and wanting to share her food with Eric or dabbing at his lips with her napkin. For a young couple, that was fine, but not his dad and his twenty-something girlfriend at a family dinner.

"Everyone, one of my good friends is here tonight and I would like to ask him to perform a song. What do you say Vin?" Mason said after a song.

"What?" Eric asked as he looked at his son.

"I am singing." Speed said as he stood up and walked to the stage.

"That is my brother!" Lynli shouted as she clapped her hands and looked at Jude.

"Hey everyone. Most of you might know me as Jude Harrison's lead guitarist Vin "Speed" Spiederman. Well, that is me, but tonight I am doing something on my own. This is a song I wrote not too long ago. Hope you all enjoy." Speed said as soon as he got up onstage. He then sat down at the piano and started playing.

"This is the clock upon the wall
This is the story of us all
This is the first sound of a newborn child,
Before he starts to crawl
This is the war that's never won
This is a soldier and his gun
This is the mother waiting by the phone,
Praying for her son

Pictures of you, pictures of me
Hung upon your wall for the world to see
Pictures of you, pictures of me
Remind us all of what we used to be

There is a drug that cures it all
Blocked by the governmental wall
We are the scientists inside the lab,
Just waiting for the call
This earthquake weather has got me shaking inside
I'm high up and dry

Pictures of you, pictures of me
Hung upon your wall for the world to see
Pictures of you, pictures of me
Remind us all of what we used to be
Confess to me, every secret moment
Every stolen promise you believed
Confess to me, all that lies between us
All that lies between you and me

We are the boxers in the ring
We are the bells that never sing
There is a title we can't win no matter
How hard we might swing

Pictures of you, pictures of me
Hung upon your wall for the world to see
Pictures of you, pictures of me
Remind us all of what we used to be

Pictures of you, pictures of me
Hung upon your wall for the world to see
Pictures of you, pictures of me
Remind us all of what we used to be
" Speed sang as he played.

Once the song was over, Jude jumped up and started clapping. Lynli quickly jumped up with her in all smiles.

"Thanks everyone, now give it up for my favorite country singer, Mason Fox." Speed said before he went back to the table.

---------------

"Are you having fun?" Speed asked Jude as they danced on the dance floor.

"Actually I am." Jude replied with a smile.

"Are you having fun?" Speed asked his little sister, who he and Jude were both holding as they dance.

"Yeppers." Lynli replied with a smile.

After dancing for a while, Speed, Lynli and Jude were interrupted.

"Hey Vin, I need to talk to you." Eric said as he walked over and interrupted the dance.

"Sure." Speed replied as he sat Lynli down, who quickly grabbed Jude's hands. "What?" Speed asked once they were all back at the table.

"I need you to take Lynli tonight." Eric said like it was no big deal.

"Say what?" Speed replied sort of caught off guard.

"I need you to take your sister home with you tonight." Eric restated.

"No." Speed replied.

"Anna is staying over so I need you to take Lynli." Eric said.

"No, I am staying at Jude's tonight." Speed replied.

"I need you to take your sister." Eric argued.

"No, do you realize how happy she is to be going with you? Do you know that she wanted to look extra pretty tonight for you and was crying because I couldn't get her hair as she wanted and thankfully Jude was there to help her. All day I have heard about how excited she was that her daddy was finally home so she could have her Lynli-Daddy weekend. This little girl wants her daddy, I have been her and I know how she feels." Speed said madly.

"I will come get her tomorrow and keep her all day." Eric said like it was no big deal.

"No, that won't cut it with Lynli. She has a freakin' suitcase packed for tonight. Ever since she found out about going out to eat and staying the night with you she has been packing." Speed replied.

"Then you come and stay too and keep her away from Anna and me." Eric replied.

"Ew, and no. I am going to Jude's house…where there are no parents or siblings to enjoy the night. Chances of something happening are not possible in this lifetime or the next, but I am staying with her damnit. I am not going to come to your house and entertain Lynli like I do all the time because you and mom have no time for her and possibly hear you and your sorority whore at it." Speed shouted back.

"Daddy, Lynli tired." Lynli said as she walked up to Eric and tried to climb in his lap.

"Honey, would you be sad if Vin took you home and I come and get you in the morning?" Eric asked Lynli as he picked her up.

"I nots staying with you?" Lynli asked as her bottom started to quiver.

"I thought maybe you could go home with Vin so he isn't lonely." Eric tried reasoning.

"Does Daddy not wants me?" Lynli asked as she started crying and trying to get away from her dad.

"Yea Dad, do you not want Lynli?" Speed asked as he received a glare from his dad.

"Of course I want you baby, I just thought maybe Vin would get lonely without his sister." Eric said as he tried to calm down Lynli.

"Wills you be lonely Vinnie?" Lynli asked.

"No, remember I said Jude and I are having a sleep over so I won't get lonely." Speed replied as Lynli smiled.

"Daddy, Vinnie wonts get lonely so I can sleepy at your home." Lynli said with a smile.

"Yay!" Eric said sarcastically.

"What did I miss?" Anna asked walking up.

"Nothing much." Speed said with a smile.

"So, when are you three leaving?" Anna asked curiously.

"Jude and I can leave whenever. I don't know when you three are leaving." Speed replied with a big smile.

"Three?" Anna asked confused.

"I stays with Daddy tonight." Lynli stated.

"Eric." Anna whined.

Eric just shrugged. "Want to dance more?"

---------------

"Hey dad, I think we are going to head out." Speed said as he saw his dad and Anna sitting at the table drinking.

"Ok, let me write your mother her checks. How much is it for you?" Eric asked as he pulled out his checkbook.

"What are you doing?" Anna asked.

"Child support stuff." Eric replied as he started making out checks.

"I don't know Dad, I never pay attention when I deposit them." Speed said.

"Wait, they have the same mom?" Anna asked once she saw Eric was writing checks to the same person.

"Yea." Eric replied.

"But you divorced your ex like ten years ago you said." Anna stated.

"I did." Eric said simply.

"You see Anna, when I was younger, my parents would meet over dinner to discuss me because they were in public and have to keep their cool. Legal fees were outrageous, so they cut the lawyers having to be present. Well, somewhere along the line, meetings over me became." Speed was saying then looked at Jude and motioned for Lynli. Jude got the hint and covered Lynli's ears. "As I was saying, meetings over me became fucking each other then my mom left with a check, and somewhere along the line they forgot protection and Lynli was formed. She wasn't their first time or their last." Speed explained with a smirk.

Anna was speechless.

"Vin, take the check and go." Eric said as he handed it to his son.

"Thanks dad." Speed said with a cheesy smile.

"It was a pleasure meeting you Jude." Eric said.

"Same to you." Jude said with a smile and then she moved over to Lynli.

"I am sure I will be seeing more of you." Anna said as she quickly hugged Speed against his will.

"Vin, when do you go back to the studio?" Eric asked out of nowhere.

"Monday, why?" Speed replied not sure as he grabbed his jacket.

"All week?" Eric asked.

"Monday through Thursday, again, why?" Speed replied.

"Oh my god, you work at a real studio?" Anna asked.

"Um, yea." Speed said as he looked over at Jude.

"I have always wanted to see one." Anna stated with a smile.

"You know what would be excellent bonding time? Vin taking you to the studio Wednesday." Eric said with a smirk. He knew his son wasn't fond of his fiancée.

"Oh my gosh, that would be totally awesome!" Anna shouted as she hugged Speed again.

"I will just have her pick you up from school then. See you two around." Eric said as he helped Lynli put her jacket on to leave.

Speed started mumbling as he kicked a chair and left with Jude chasing him.

Now review if you want to see Anna go to the studio, and SME might just have something up their sleeve ;)
