Chapter 7

My Beautiful Love

A/N: Okay, so this chapter is a flashback of why Tommy was so screwed up…hope you enjoy, and as always, drop me a review.

"Far away

I feel you beating heart

All alone

Beneath the crystal stars

Like staring into space

What a lonely face

I try to find my place with you

What a beautiful smile

Can I stay for a while?

On this beautiful night

We'll make everything right

My beautiful love….

Maybe a greater thing will happen

Maybe all will see

Maybe our love will catch like fire

As it burns through me

Maybe a greater thing will happen

Maybe all will see

Maybe our love will catch like fire

As it burns through me

Maybe a greater thing will happen

Maybe all will see

Maybe our love will catch like fire

As it burns through me

..My beautiful love…."

Tommy stared at Jude. Her eyes didn't flutter. He'd hoped that if he sang to her, she'd wake. Although he wasn't sure how to tell her…How do you tell your best friend…you life, that they lost your baby…their baby….THEIR life?

He heard a soft knock at the door, and saw Tom.

"Hey…"

"Hey, I just saw Jen…Doctor says she might not speak again…ever…"

"I guess we should be fortunate that she isn't dead…" Tommy scoffed as he set his guitar aside.

"Dad!"

"Your sister could have died today. And because of her, you're not going to get to know your little brother or sister…your mom lost the baby…"


"What!?"

"Yeah…Swallow that one." He walked out of the room and kept moving. He didn't know where he was going, but he knew if he kept moving that he'd eventually find the place his heart wanted him to be.

"You know people, they don't always see who you really are….but I need you try…"

"Believe me…IN me, again…"

"I always thought I saw the real you…"

TJTJTJTJTJ

"I can't even stand to look at you right now!"


"Join the club!" He kissed her hard, shoving her against the door. She kissed him back…

(Back To the Present)

Tommy watched the cars pass below and the birds fly overhead. The door opened and Sadie stepped out.

"Sadie Fenway, are you stalking me?"

"No Tom…Contrary to popular belief, I have a reason for being here…Jude's awake…" She looked down at the street where he was looking.

"That's nice…" He remembered that spot on the street.

"Tommy, what's so significant about that spot?"

"5 seconds near death…Had Jude not been there, I would've died…remember?"

"Oh…" Sadie nodded slightly, remembering the accident 17 years before. Jude had returned from her 2nd tour and they'd gotten into a fight. Tommy stormed out of G Major into the street and a bus driver wasn't paying attention…Had Jude not chased him out and called 911 when she had, he would have died. And THAT was the beginning of their relationship. "But Tom, Jude's here now…and so are you…"

"You know, Sadie, I can't help but think these days that maybe she shouldn't have chased me out of G Major. She'd be with…Jamie…and I'd be gone… She wouldn't have lost the baby…"

"And she might be dead too…"

"What?"

"Tommy, if Jamie was so abusive as to go as far as nearly kill you both AND rape Jude, that only God knows what Jamie is really capable of…I certainly don't want to know…" She looked down in the street.

"Maybe…" He turned around and crossed his arms, looking at her.

"Sadie, do you ever feel like you made a mistake, I mean marrying Liam?"

"How so?"

"I mean…When you have really bad fights…or when he lies to you…Do you ever feel like it was mistake?"

"It all started on one mistake, Tom…me thinking you cheated on me. Me hooking up with Liam and getting pregnant…Me almost ruining my marriage… I mean, it's all cosmically related in one way or another, but… You don't think you made a mistake marrying Jude, do you?"

"At times like these, yes…"

"What do you mean, Times Like These…When you're hurting…or when we have conversations like this?" She stepped in front of him. He turned his head to the side, once again getting that pained look on his face. (Okay, whenever I say 'that look' from now on, in any of my stories, I expect you guys to know what I'm talking about…this is the one: In Unsweet 16 when they're in the studio talking after the party, she tells him to lie to her, and then the camera cuts to him, and he has that look on his face, it's quick, I know, but that's the one!) "Come on, Tom. Answer me…"

"Sadie…" He looked up at her with apologetic eyes.

"What? What is it?" His lips crashed against hers for a split second before they both opened their mouths, deepening the kiss. The door opened, and Liam stepped through. They pulled away from each other. Liam walked over and looked at the two of them.


"Tell me I didn't just walk in on you two about to hook up." His face was flared with anger as Jude walked out.

"What's going on?"

"Come on Sadie, answer me!" Liam yelled, waiting for one of them to answer.

"We…we were..."

"Tom?" Jude walked over them and touched his arm.

"What was going ON!?"

"I kissed Sadie, okay!?"

"No, not okay! I trusted you!!! I consider you a close friend, and you take advantage of that by making out with my wife!? NEVER AGAIN!" He hit Tommy, and the two began to fight on the rooftop. Jude struggled to get between the two.

"Liam, stop!!!" Sadie tried to help, but Liam and Tommy continued to fight.

"Stop you two!!!" They got closer and closer to the edge.

"Liam, don't!" He gave Tommy one hard shove, and he flew over the edge.

"JUDE!!!!" She leaned over the side, watching him smash into the ground, back first.

"Liam!!!" She looked at him with tear filled eyes and ran to the door…


When she reached the street below, the ambulance was already on its way. She ran to him, laying in the street, and lifted his head. Blood covered her hand. She touched his neck to feel for a pulse, and felt nothing.

"NO!!!" She screamed as the Ambulance showed up. They began to get him ready to go, and fought to save him.

"Come on, Tom!!!" Jude cried as they rushed to the hospital…
