Recap:

Kat thought it through and understanding her for once she said, "Jude….good luck okay."

Jude turned to Tommy as fear shook her she had to this was the only way he could be in her future. This was the only way he could love her later and it would be okay and accepting. This was the only way she could love again with out being heart broken. This was the only way she could prove to herself and him that they should really be together. This was for them.

Tommy was sitting at his desk in g-major making sure everything was here that he needed. He was trying to distract his mind from Jude he didn't under stand why she had dumped him right after she brought him home.

He got what she meant but didn't understand why she would think he didn't have any type of connection with her. He didn't really want relationships with girls but he wanted one with her. He even took a bullet for her so why wasn't she all over him like all the other girls were especially when they slept together.

It was like she wanted to get away from him instead him getting away from her like he does with all the other girls he ever slept with other than Portia and Angie.

Flash Back

Jude was driving in Tommy's viper after going to her house and switching cars. Tommy was telling Jude directions to the way to his apartment.

"Tommy i-"He cut her off.

"Jude…I was thinking. I know I don't know you that well and we just started this relationship but I'm feeling something I never felt before"

He looked up at Jude and seen she had tears in her eyes so he wiped them away with his thumbs and kissed her lightly on the check since she was driving.

This made Jude cry even more so she pulled over.

"Tommy….we……i…..can't….we" She started to sob harder and Tommy didn't know what to do. He could walk and drive but he his arm was really sore. So he waited wanting to know what she needed to tell him.

He couldn't wait any longer, "Jude what is this about. I don't get it I want to be with you, do you want something else of some one?"

"No" she said barely audible but he heard.

"So then what's the matter?"

Jude got her act together she had to tell him before things got worse. Before she couldn't and made it harder for both of them. She collected her self toke a deep breath, turned to him, and looked straight into his eyes seeing passion and worry float through them.

"Jude, baby, just tell me. It's okay, I'm here to protect you" He grabbed her hands and intertwined their fingers together. Jude smiled seeing this maybe he really did like her. He looked down at their fingers and back up into her eyes.

"Babe, just tell me what's on your mind?"

Jude took a deep breath and started what her mind was telling her to do even though her heart was racing and beating her chest to stop listening to her mind.

"It's just I need you to believe that I want to be with you and I'm not going to be someone you sleep with and let down easy afterwards. I'm going to be more than any of them. I need you to see that you want me more than any thing. I don't think you see that yet but you will and when you do I'll be waiting"

Tommy was confused, "Jude what are you saying?"

"That this (she let go of his hands and pointed to her and him) has to stop for right now. I need some one whose going to be here all the time not when he feels like he wants to be and then the next second he's bored." She said a little frustrated that he didn't get what she was trying to say.

"No I won't let you"

"This isn't what you want okay, I need you to feel" That's when Tommy got it. He never really had feeling for any one except for Angie and when she dated him he was famous and got caught up in the fame. She did drugs and slept around and he broke it off with her and married Portia since she was more serious than Angie would ever be.

He loved Portia but never loved her as much as he loved Angie before he got her caught up in the fame. Every day he blamed his self for corrupting the one and only girl he actually felt some thing for.

Tommy nodded not knowing what to say and Jude started the car up again and drove to Tommy's apartment.

Just then Georgia snapped him out of his thoughts.

"What?"

"Tonight's the show do you want to be a judge or what?"

"Ummm no it's all good I think I'll stick to the producer job and only that"

"Okay I'll see you tomorrow, that's when they'll be coming in…..and one more thing"

"Yup, what's on your mind Georgia?"

"What ever you do don't get involved with the winner"

"It could be a boy you know"

"Yeah I doubt it, there are three girl finalist and one boy"

"OOhhh okay then sure what ever you say"

"Really Tommy I know girls and I know you"

"What's that suppose to mean?"

"Tommy….your a man whore…but I still love you for it. I'm just saying don't mix work with pleasure please."

"Okay Georgia but really I'm not like that….well not any more okay"

"yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh sure"

Before Tommy could respond gergia ran out thinking

Georgia's pov

Wow who has panties in a bunch. I never thought this day would come. Some one really stole lil Tommy q's hearts but who? I gotta find out and make sure the connection they have stays forever. I never have seen him so confused about love before, it was practically written all over his face.

He didn't seem happy though, who ever it is I'm going to make sure they are back together or not fighting if they are. I mean he never got offended when I called him man whore before but he was just taken back by it. This is so weird I never thought this day would come. Who would have guessed?

At the competition

"Are you ready Jude?"

"Yeah I think so"

"You do realize if I don't win people are going to think I'm a total dork"

"Well just to make you feel better most of the kids already think WE do"

"No just me, you dress normal to them. They don't get why I don't dress girly if I'm not all that sporty you know"

"Jude shut up gosh, you and you way of thinking it makes me sad almost. It's time to become optimistic"

"Only Tommy does that"

"How many flowers did he send today?"

"OMG He sent 5 dozen roses to my house. I told my mom people were sending them because the felt bad for me"

"Well, you could have at least told him why you broke up with him after all that"

"I didn't have the heart to would you?"

"Right well at least you could of told him to wait for you"

"Yeah a guy like Tommy freakin Q would wait for a girl like me…just because he was with me doesn't mean he lost his play boy ways. I may have been raped but I'm not experienced like all the other girls he's been with you know"

"Yeah but your way different then them"

"So what?"

"Don't you think its weird how he hasn't given up on you?"

"It's been like what? 2 weeks big deal, we only knew each other for like 2 or 3 days"

"What if it was like love at first sight?"

"I don't believe in that any more, that only happens in fairy tales"

"You're lying but that's okay…I get why you're doing it. He's so hot I mean you would let lil Tommy q down when he wanted you so bad"

"it's not like that he probably wants more ass"

"Like I said I understand your reasoning"

"What ever…soo did you like the song?...I mean it could have been better huh?"

"You don't worry you'll win that song was beautiful"

"You think?"

"Yeah I never knew you had it in you"

"Yeah thanks"

"Jude?...When did you write that?"

"Tech me how to love was written after Ben, and I'm proud to say I can put him behind me"

"That's great…well, all the contestants gotta go up there"

"Kat?"

"Yeah?"

"Thanks…for everything" Jude smiled and hugged Kat.

"No, thank you for being the bestest friend I have ever had in my life. Now get up there nowww" Kat said as a tears came down her cheeks and she pushed Jude towards the stage.

All the contestants stood there holding each others hands.

"And the winner is………I don't know if I should tell it."

The host laughed into the mike as the crowd went dead silent to hear who was the winner.

"And the winner is JUDE HARRISON" Jude looked up shocked like a dear in head lights.

"I won…oh my gosh I won" she shrieked.

Georgia came on the stage gave her a hug and started to speak in the mic,

"Congratulations Jude we'll see you tomorrow in the morning to meet your producer Mr. Quincy"

Jude smile turned into a shocked look and Georgia sighed knowing she was probably excited to meet him and try to seduce him or something.
