The next morning I awoke with the sun to my back. I glanced at my hand and remembered the events of last night. Tommy's proposal. My acceptance. Us. Engaged. Again! I took a deep breath, inhaling Tommy's sweet scent. It had the ability to remove any doubt I had. I noticed the shift in his breathing which meant he was waking up.
"Morning"
"Morning" he replied, a little groggy
I was about to crawl from under Tommy's heavy arm, when he pulled me closer to him. I laughed at the huge grin on his face.
"We have to get to work"
"Not yet" he said running his fingers through my hair
"You know, I don't let just anyone touch my hair"
"I'm not just anyone"
"True, so are you ready to start this album"
"Ready and willing"
"It seems so long ago, since number one"
"Oh that reminds me, these are yours" he said pulling a pair of keys out of the drawer. One of these days I'm going to have to go through that drawer and see what's in it.
"What are these for?"
"Oh. I didn't tell you, I moved, so they're for the Hummer and my new place"
"You moved?"
"Yeah, to a little place outside of Ontario"
"Oh"
After awhile, me and Tommy headed to the studio where I had a message from Sadie, saying there was an emergency and that I needed to call her after I got off of work. Secretly, I as a little worried about telling her me and Tommy were reengaged.
We recorded I Still Love You, then I went to help an artist named Ashley, I was mentoring. She has so much potential and her songs are straight from the heart. According to Tommy, she's just like me.
After work Tommy and I headed back home, so I could return Sadie's call.
"Hello"
"Jude, how are you"
""Great, hey I got your message, is everything okay"
"Yes and no"
"Sadie what's going on down there?"
"It's mom"
"MOM!!"
"Yeah, somehow she found out you were in London, so she called here yelling, I yelled back, anyway, she's coming"
"Here?!"
"Yeah, so I'm going to come down and we'll handle this together okay"
"Okay, well at least you'll be able to see London"
"Yep, do some shopping with my baby sis, but how are you"
"I'm good, miss you though"
"And Tommy"
"He's here" I said the wariness coming back
"How are you two?"
I took a deep breath and answered; "Great"
Me and Sadie talked for about a half an hour, while Tommy watched TV or played with y hair. I was pretty sure he was used to the whole me-Sadie thing. No matter where I go, she'll always be my sister and I'll always love her.
