Getting to know my father
Chapter 7
Previously
Back with Tommy and Kwest
After their talk with D they walk into studio A to put the finishing touches on Jude's single.
"Kwest man what's with this Don guy and where's her mother?"
"T man it's not my place to tell you if Jude wants you to know she will tell you when she's ready. She's already been through a lot man so take it easy on her ok"
Back at the doctor's
"Miss Harrison we have you're test results. And well you're………………………
"I'm sorry doc but can you repeat what you just said I kinda spaced out."
"I said that you're pregnant"
"WHAT"
"I said that you're pregnant Miss Harrison."
"So the doctor at the hospital was right I'm pregnant, this so can't be happening"
"Miss Harrison you didn't tell me you where admitted to hospital last night."
"Yeah well it was nothing."
"Nothing Miss Harrison been admitted to hospital is not nothing it is serious. Now what were you admitted for?"
"Well lets see if I remember correctly they said something about me being stressed and that's why I collapsed."
"Oh so Miss Harrison do you have a lot of stress you're life"
"Oh no it's just…. Nevermind I really don't want to get into it. Now just to be sure you ran that test more than once didn't you?"
"Of course Miss Harrison what kind of a doctor do you think I am"
"I didn't mean any offence it's just with everything going on in my life at the moment I wanted to be sure, that's all. "
"Ok Liz. Well then I suggest you make an appointment and come back an see me in about a month?"
"Ok thanks doc."
With that Jude walked out of the Doctor's office wondering how on earth she ended up pregnant and who the father could be. Oh God who is the father. I think I'll go back to Kwest's and start relaxing like the doc told me to do cos if I keep thinking about this it's gonna do my head in.
Meanwhile in D's office
"Yes yes I know I know what I'm doing I'm not going to hurt Jude. This is just to get a little publicity and hype surrounding her and her music."
……."Yes we understand that but did you have to tell everyone that she is pregnant?
"Well when Jude was taken to hospital they drew some blood and did some tests one of those tests was a pregnancy test and it came back positive. So the only possible lie in that article is that Tommy's the father."
……."Yeah well we all know what Tommy's like it's possible that he is the father and just doesn't remember being with her."
Knock knock
"Look man I've got to go someone's at the door I'll talk to you later."
With that D hung up his phone and opened his door. There standing in the doorway was Sadie."
"Sadie what can I do for you?"
"Well D you see I was answering phone's all day in regards to the whole Jude and Tommy article or as the media are now calling it Jommy article, when an interesting offer came up that I thought you should know about."
"Well what is it Sadie. Don't just stand there come and sit down and we will discuss the offer.
"The offer in question actually came from Georgia, you know the old Boyzattack den mother."
"Mmm this could be just the thing we need to put us over the top. Give me her details and I'll sort something out. Oh and Sadie don't say thing or else it's you're job"
Mean in the studio with Tommy and Kwest
"So did you talk to Jude for me?"
"Man do you really think given what has happened in the last 24 hours that I've actually had time to talk to Jude. Man please come see me within the next 48 hours and I'll see what I can do."
"Alright man, now lets get this single mixed so we can get out of here."
Just before they could get started on what was surely going to be a long night Kwest's cell rang
"Hey man are you gonna answer you're that or what"
"Hi"
"Hey…."
"Don't even think of saying it Kwest"
"Ok so what's up"
"Oh nothing I was just thinking about dinner. Do you want me to pick something up or I can cook just let me know what you want."
"No it's ok how about I pick up some Chinese on my way home"
"Oh ok it's just that I wanna be useful I'll I'm here Kwest"
"I know you do but you're a guest in my house so just sit back and relax and I'll be home as soon as I can. Well I gotta got work to do."
"Well are you going to tell me who that was and why are they staying at you're place of all places."
"Well you see T I do have friends other than you, you know. And this particular friend needs a break from everything that has being going in their life so I suggested that they stay with me for awhile until things kinda settle down."
"Yeah right man does Sadie know about this "
"Ah not really it kinda happened so fast and with everything going on with Jude I really haven't had the time to discuss this with her I'm sure it will be ok"
"Just remember it's you're funeral"
"Yeah ok man let's get this done"
After 5 hours Tommy and Kwest were done mixing Jude's single which was sure to be a hit giving the current media frenzy surrounding her at the moment.
"Ok T I think we're finished with this lets drop it off to D and lets get outta here. It's being a weird 24 hours you know.
"Yeah man I know and what makes it more confusing is that I can't help but think about that dancer you know from back in the day. I really did love her which I'm only now realising. I wonder what ever happened to her?"
"I know what you're talking about as for that dancer I'm sure she is doing just fine did you ever try to contact her after the accident. You she just might be closer than you think."
"Yeah well I did try once but it appears that she dropped off the face of the earth. No one and I mean no one not even Georgia knows where she is. And Kwest Georgia knows where everyone who toured with us is. But this girl man she drives me absolutely insane man and the weird thing is Jude reminds me of her they are so alike you'd swear that they are sister's or something."
"T listen to me for a moment I know that you really care about this dancer but you better listen to D man and stay out of the tabloids until we get things sorted with Jude. The last thing Jude needs right now is to pickup a magazine with the heading "Lil Tommy Q cheats on the mother of his child turn to page 5 to find out more"
"Ok ok I get the picture no tabloid headlines until this thing is sorted with Jude. Now you better get going to that guest you have at you're house and I'll talk to you later."
With that Kwest left G Major and headed home to where Jude was to try and sort this mess out.
"Jude I'm home, girl where are you?"
"Don't you mean Sadie. Are you cheating on me with Jude"
"Sadie I'm not cheating just let me check on Jude and then we'll all sit down and talk this out ok."
"Jude's in her room she's hasn't come out since I got here."
"Sadie what did you say to Jude?"
"Nothing I just asked what she was doing here and not at Tommy's where she belongs after all she's carrying his child."
"Please tell me you're joking"
Sadie just looks at Kwest
"Sadie Jude doesn't need anymore pressure on her at the moment especially in her condition. I better go check on her and make sure she's ok"
Kwest walks away leaving a stunned Sadie and goes to check on Jude
"Jude it's Kwest let me in please"
"Kwest I'm so glad you're here. I just couldn't stand being alone with that girlfriend of yours. Seriously Kwest what do you see in her she's the kind of girl that Tommy usually goes for."
"Jude now as for Sadie yeah I know that she's the type Tommy goes for and they did date for awhile but Tommy's has always compared the girls he dates to you. Even though he doesn't know it, it's a subconscious thing he's done since you guys split."
"So you just go after Tommy's off cuts. Kwest I thought you had more brains than to date any of the girls he dated"
"Yeah normally I would but there was something different about Sadie and I couldn't resist. And before you ask I got the ok from Tommy before I made my move. You know the guy code."
"Of course I know the guy code it's just I didn't think Tommy knew it."
"Come on Jude I got favourite, now about you come downstairs and get to know Sadie a bit better. She's really nice once you get to know her."
"Ok Kwest but I'm not making any promises about liking her."
Jude and Kwest walk downstairs to where Sadie is waiting and has appeared to have set up tea for everyone.
"Oh hey guys, just take a sit and get comfortable it's going to be a long night as I want to know how you guys know each other. And don't give me that we only know each other from G Major because quite clearly there's more to the story."
"What makes you say that?"
"I've known Kwest since I started working at G Major and I've never seen him take to anyone so quickly as he did to you. So I know that you guys knew each other before hand. Just don't tell me you guys dated I don't think I could handle that."
"Ewe gross Sadie Kwest is like an older brother and I don't swing that way"
"Gee thanks Jude you sure know how to boost a man's ego"
"Oh don't tell me that I hurt poor little west west now."
"Jude what did I say about using that name?"
"You told me not to call you that but you know me I never really liked rules. Otherwise I wouldn't have well you Kwest"
"Wouldn't what Jude?"
"It doesn't matter Sadie it was a long time ago and I really don't want to relive it. So lets just drop it ok.
"Ok so tell me Kwest how do you know Jude?"
"Well you see Jude was a…"
Before Kwest could finish that sentence Jude jumped in
"I was a sister of one of the dancer's on the Boyzattack tour. And Kwest use to hang out with me when they had practice and well became really close."
"Wait a minute what where you doing on tour if you're sister was the one performing."
"Well you see my sister Liz had custody of me due to the fact my mother died and I don't know who my father is. So I had to go I had no choice in the matter"
"Oh"
There's something going on here and I'm going to find out what even if it's the last thing I do Sadie thought to herself.
"Yeah and we became really close. But we kinda lost touch after the accident that ended the career of Liz. So when Jude got signed to G Major I felt like I found my baby sister again."
"Does D and Tommy know that you where on tour with Boyzattack?"
"D does and as for Tommy I don't he even noticed I existed as he was too busy trying to get with the dancers."
"Oh so you don't like Tommy did something happen with you're sister."
"No nothing like what you're thinking. You see Liz my sister was very protective of the dancers and would have a few words to say to Tommy everytime they had to get a new girl. Tommy just couldn't keep it in his pants."
"Now that makes sense as to why D would be considering that offer from Georgia."
"Sadie what are you talking about and how do you know about Georgia?"
"Kwest what are you talking about, and the offer from Georgia no one's meant to know about that."
"Sadie Georgia was the den mother on the Boyzattack tour. So tell me about this offer Georgia came up with that would see D considering talking to her again especially after the way things were left when the guys split and what D hadto pay to keep people quite."
"Well you see………………………………."
