Chapter 2

AN- thanks for the reviews.

When Sadie arrived back home, Jude was still sitting on the couch. Jude jumped at the sound of the door opening.

"Sadie, you scared me." She snapped.

"What's gotten you so uptight?" Sadie snapped back

"Nothing. Don't worry about it. I'm going to bed." She said making her way to her room.

Once in her room, Jude let the tears fall freely from her eyes. What's going to happen to him? I shouldn't have let him leave. God why did I tell him to leave? She thought to herself. She lay down on her bed and went to sleep.

The next day:

Jude awoke to the sound of her cell phone ringing.

"Hello?" she mumbled.

"Did I wake you up?" said the voice from the other line.

Jude sat up quickly, her eyes wide.

"Tommy? You're alright?" she asked.

"Yeah I'm fine." He answered.

"Where are you?" she said.

"I'm not gonna tell you that. That way if the cops come by you won't be lying about where I am because you won't know. Speaking of cops…have they been by yet?" he asked worriedly.

"No, not yet." She said.

"Jude, listen, I'm so sorry I got you involved in this. Now because of me, if you lie to the police then you get in trouble to." He told her.

"Don't worry about it. I'll be fine. It's not like I've never lied before."

"I know. But that's not the thing. If they find out that you lied for me, They might think you had something to do with it."

"Don't worry about me."

"I can't help but worry. About you, everything. But I promise, everything is gonna be okay."

"Yeah, I know."

They hung up. Jude threw her phone across the bed and it landed on the floor.

Sadie came up and knocked on her door.

"Come in." Jude said.

Sadie walked in the room and sat down on the side of the bed.

"How come you didn't go to work today? Did you and Tommy have yet another fight?" Sadie asked.

"No, we didn't have a fight. He uh…he went out of town for a little while." Jude answered.

"Oh really, where is he going?" she asked.

Jude stopped and thought. She couldn't think of anywhere off hand. There was a pause before Jude answered.

"He really didn't say. All he told me was that he wanted to get away." She said looking down at the floor.

"Jude, you know I'm not buying your story…not one part of it. Now tell me where he really is." Sadie ordered.

"It's not a lie. He did go out of town and he didn't say where either. You can even call him." Jude told her. She grabbed her phone up out of the floor and held it out towards Sadie trying to convince her.

"Okay, jeez." Sadie said walking out of her room.

Thank God she didn't take that phone. Jude thought as she heard a knock on the front door.

"Jude!" Sadie yelled.

"Who could that be? Maybe its D." she told herself.

When Jude got down the stairs she saw cops standing in the living room.

Oh God. She thought.

"Are you Jude Harrison?" the taller one of the two asked.

"Yes. What can I do for you officer?" She said shaking.

" I am Officer Smith and this is my partner Officer Collins." He said.

"Nice to meet you both." She said as politely as she could manage.

"Now Jude, do you know a Tommy Q.? We heard he was your producer." Collins said.

"Yes what about him?" She asked calmly.

"Well it appears that he has committed a murder and we would like to know where he his." Collins told her.

"A murder? Who did he kill?" Jude said trying to sound surprised.

"Caleb Parker I believe was his name." Smith said.

"Umm…and why did Tommy kill him?" she asked.

"That's what we're trying to figure out." He said.

"Okay so what do you need to know?" she asked him.

"When was the last time you saw Tommy?" Collins asked.

Jude thought about what she was going to say to them. If she made one slip, it could cause Tommy to go back to jail.

"The last time I saw him was a couple days ago when I went to work at GMajor. And that was…Tuesday. But after that he always called me and talked to me for a while."

"What did he say?" Smith asked.

"Nothing out of the ordinary. He just called to see if I had written any more new songs for the album. We only talked for about ten minutes." Jude said.

"Thank you for your time." Smith said.

"No problem." She said.

Smith and Collins got off the couch and walked out of the door.

Sadie sat down next to Jude.

"You knew didn't you?" She said.

"Sadie not now." Jude told her.

"Yes now. You are gonna tell me what is going on with Tommy." Sadie said.

"Fine. I went in to work yesterday and I waited for Tommy. He called my cell phone and said he had 'business' to take care of. Then after I got home he called again and said he was coming over here. Well when I answered the door he was bloody and he wouldn't tell me at first what was going on. But then he explained to me that he killed the guy that killed his father." Jude said.

"Oh my God. Why did you lie to the police then?" She asked.

"Tommy doesn't want to go back to jail again. I won't let him either."

"Wait a minute. Tommy has been to jail?"

"Yep. About four years ago he broke into the guys' house to find proof that he killed his dad. He called the cops and they took him to jail." Jude said looking down.

"Wow. I never knew that about him. I mean there was a lot of stuff I didn't know about him but I never thought that would be one of them."

"I know. Me neither. But you have to promise me that you won't say any thing to any body about this. He doesn't even know that I told you."

"Don't worry. I won't say any thing. You can trust me."

AN-ok so I didn't like this ch. As well as I did the first one. But review me and tell me what you all think about it. Thx!
