I apologize for taking so long I have been moving out of state so it has not been fun!!

But I am writing lots again so here is Chapter 8 and Chapter 9 will be up by the end of the weekend!!

CHAPTER 8

4 weeks later!

Jude wakes up to the sound of her alarm on her cell phone going off. She tosses and turns before turning off the alarm.

Noelle who was asleep on the floor rolls over "why in the hell is your alarm going off at 9am?" she asks still half asleep.

Jude sits up wide awake "I am waiting for a call!" she says with a smile on her face.

"Please tell me you didn't wake me up this early so you can talk to my brother!" Noelle groans.

"He only has so much time and I don't mind walking up this early. You can go back to bed if you want! No one said you had to get up." she said with a sarcastic tone!

Noelle rolled her eyes. "How many times a day do you guys talk?"

Jude smiles, "Not nearly enough. Only like 2 or 3 times, but sometimes he calls me in the middle of the night when he can't sleep ."

Noelle shakes her head. "He's my brother and I only talk to him twice a week!"

Before Jude can respond to Noelle her phone starts to ring. She looks down at the phone and Tommy's picture pops up. Jude jumps off her bed and starts to run out the bedroom door. She flips open her phone. "hello".

"Good Morning Beautiful." Tommy says with a bright smile.

"Good Morning to you too! How are you? She asks.

"Good I guess, just missing you tons." He says sadly.

"I miss you too" She said with a sad smile.

"What are your plans for today?" he asks trying to change the subject.

"Um, not too much. Noelle and I were up late last night watching movies. So we'll probably just stay home and relax." She says with a yawn. "Sorry, what about you?" She asks making coffee

"I have an autograph signing thing later today, then back on the tour bus and off to New York. We have a concert up there in 4 days. But the good news is after that concert I get a few days break before the next one." He pauses, "I just don't know what I will do in those few days. Except maybe miss you like crazy. "

Jude giggles "I bet you can find a couple of hot girls to keep you busy..."

"The only girl I want is not in New York." He said longingly and Jude smiles.

As she is about to respond she hears Kwest in the background telling Tommy that they have got to go.

"I'm sorry but I gotta go. I will have you on my mind all day. I'll call you later.." He says disappointed he has to get off.

Jude sighs "Don't forget I love you and miss you like crazy."

"I love you too Jude" Tommy said, and then she heard nothing.

Jude closes her phone and then closes her eyes she has never missed anyone this much. She cannot wait. In 6 weeks Tommy will be home and he will be all hers.

BACK WITH TOMMY…

He closes his and looks at it for a couple seconds. He misses her so much, and can't wait to be back in her arms. He loves hearing her voice it is so soft and sweet. He looks around at all the people in room and can now fully appreciate the saying "You can be lonely in a room full of people." It doesn't feel the same without her. As his mind wanders in thoughts about her, Kwest taps him on the shoulder "You ready to leave?" Tommy nodes his head and starts to walk off with Kwest.

He stops instantly and gets a great idea. "Kwest give me five minutes I have something I have got to take care of." Tommy walks away and pulls out this phone. He dials a number "Yes I would like to have something delivered."

BACK WITH JUDE…

Jude and Noelle are sitting at the table eating lunch.

"Do you think Tommy is hooking up with a different girl in every city?" Jude asks. She knows Tommy has a reputation and even though he says he has been faithful the whole time, she just gets nervous because he can have any girl he wants. Why would he want her?

"Jude, Tommy tells you he loves you. He has never told another girl that. You're special. I know my brother and I don't think he would do anything to hurt you." Noelle says laying a hand on her friend's shoulder.

"Thanks, I guess I just don't see what he sees in me." Jude says shaking her head. Just then the doorbell rings. Noelle and Jude look at each other with a questioning look. They weren't expecting any company. They both get up and walk over to the door and open it. They see a delivery man holding two dozen red roses.

"Hello I am looking for Jude Harrison." he says with a kind smile

"That's me." she says taking the roses.

"You also have this envelope too Ms. Harrison, and can you sign this please?" he asks as has he hands her the padded envelope.

Jude hands the flowers to Noelle and signs. She comes inside and shuts the door then meets up with Noelle who has migrated to the table. Jude smells the roses and smiles.

"And you were worried he was with other girls" Noelle says sarcastically.

Jude giggles and takes the envelope that Noelle hands her. "Just so you know I'm taking half of these." Noelle says admiring the flowers.

"Sure sure," Jude said opening the envelope.

Jude,

I found a way to have a great couple of days off. The best part is I get to spend it with the girl I love..

See you in a few days!! I miss you!!

Love you,

Tommy

Jude has a confused look on her face and then pulls out 2 airline tickets to New York. She looks over at Noelle.

"WE'RE GOING TO NEW YORK." She squeals.

HOPE YOU ENJOYED IT!!
