Hey Everyone! This is my first fic that I am posting. I have written fiction for years. So I decides to share with everyone. I already have quite a bit written on this story so I might try to update frequently. I do my own editing, so if you see any mistakes feel free to let me know. I am pretty anal about detail, so I try to detail everything as much as possible. I love to read reviews so please review all you want. If you didn't already know everything in italics is flashbacks. I use the show as a guideline, but twist the events to fit my storyline.

Disclaimer: I own nothing.

Chapter 5

Jude was trying to shake her feeling of Tommy pulling away. She knew he loved her. She could see it in his eyes, but she wanted to feel wanted again. It was always hard to hold back during the beginning of their relationship. She remembered going to his place after performing on Music Helps.

"So how'd I get so lucky for you coming back here with me?" He asked as they were sitting on the couch.

"Sadie. She called mom and told her we all were going out to eat. As long as mom thinks I'm with Sadie, she doesn't care."

"Hmm, lucky me." He said smiling at her.

"What are you smiling at?" She was feeling a bit self-conscience.

"Your plan was perfect. You blew Eden out of the water."

This did excite her. "And I got to perform with you."

"Yep." He said before kissing her.

She'd missed his lips. They'd been so busy lately that there wasn't much time for just them. The kiss deepened and she felt like she couldn't get close enough to him. When she needed air, it was he just knew and would move to her neck.

"I have missed you, so much." He whispered in her ear causing chills to run all over her body.

"Me, too." She responded pulling his lips back to hers. She wasn't able to comprehend anything. She was totally lost in bliss. All she could think about was his lips and his hands felt so good. The only thing that brought her back to her senses was loosing contact with him. "Tommy?" She opened her eyes. She was still trying to catch her breath and could tell he was, too.

"Maybe we should… You want something to drink?" He asked walking toward the kitchen.

"Water would be great." She said sitting up.

"Here you go." He said returning. "So, how'd things go with Kat?"

"Really good. I think she and I are going to be okay."

"That's good. What did you come up with?"

"Well, it was some snide remark Eden made. She said she didn't know why I cared so much. That Shay and I only dated for a couple of months. It wasn't like I loved him or anything. That's when I realized, sure I didn't love him, but Kat loved Jamie. She'd never even told him."

"I hope now we can put Shay and Eden behind us and move on." Tommy said.

"That's all I want. Kat and I are going to hang out tomorrow. I wish I could get her and Jamie back together."

"That might be a difficult task."

'Why?"

"Girl, are not that blind."

"I'm with you. This is where I want to be."

"I know, I'm just saying. I watched him struggle between the both of you that day. I'll admit it wasn't easy to watch and not say anything, but he was so torn. I could tell he liked Kat, but his feelings for you are something totally different."

"He's my best friend, but I don't feel that way." She had this need to stress that to him so he would know whom she wanted.

"I just want you to be aware. Teenage boys are fragile."

"Shut up, Tommy. I'm not leading him on."

"Jude I never said you were, but he is blind to certain things. Look at everyone around us. The only people that know, from our mouths, that we are together are Kwest, Sadie, and your mom. But the look on Georgia's face the other day to me, she knew, but wasn't saying anything. Jamie is your best friend and he doesn't see it. I just don't want you to be blindsided when he decides to tell you how he feels."

"You are the best boyfriend ever." She said leaning her forehead against his. She could tell he only wanted what was best for her.

"I just don't want you to loose your best friend. It's hard in this business with out one person to have your back at all times. I don't know what I'd do with out Kwest."

She couldn't help but kiss him again. He was looking out for her, and that meant the world to her. She was swept away with the sensations of his mouth and hands again. She didn't know how she lived life with out them before. She pulled back slightly to look in his eyes. "I know you'll always have my back." She said breathlessly.

"Always." He said into her ear and kissing the spot right underneath, slightly grazing her skin with his tongue.

Just then there was a knock on the door, making them jump apart. Jude straightened her hair and clothes, while Tommy went to the door. It was Kwest and Sadie. Jude had never been happier to see her sister in her life. She and Tommy were getting intense.

"Ready to go, Sis?"

It seemed like they longer they were together, the easier the holding back was. That just didn't seem right. She had to find something to get her mind off the subject.
