theres a thunder in our hearts baby  so much hate for the ones we love TAG: Jude OUTFIT: HERE ONE LAST THING: 635 WORDS He drove in circles for what seemed like hours - he guessed that was just what anger did to you - make you think hours were passing. It was honestly only thirty minutes. Then, he decided to go to his parents house and pack his bags and get out - he couldn’t stand being near or under the same roof as Leila. He wasn’t going to tell his parents what he’d walked in on - he wouldn’t do that to his sister - despite what she’d done to him. On the way to his parents house, he made a phone call to his Uncle - who only visited Hope during the Summer and for holidays. His house was vacant - and if he would allow Alex to stay there - he’d have some alone time.
“Hey, Uncle John.. It’s Alex.. Listen, I’ve got a question.”
“Alex! Son, have you taken that bar exam yet? I’m glad you went back to Hope - I will probably be moving back next April.. For good.. I’m kinda sick of being away from home so much.. And shoot, man.. You know you can ask me anything.”
Alex laughed, “No, I haven’t taken the exam yet - I will be soon though. Really? That’d be awesome, man. Hey, listen.. Mom and dad’s place is feeling kinda cramped up - you know, after living on your own, it’s kind of hard to move back in with your parents. I was wondering, since you won’t be home until December and I should have a place of my own by then.. Is it alright with you if I stay there until I can get my own place? I’ll pay the electric bill and all - you know I’m not going to destroy the place..”
“Alex, I can’t even believe you’re asking me. I get what you mean - and I trust you. Out of all my nephews - you’re the one with your head screwed on tighter than most. You know the place is open to you any time you need somewhere to crash. You know where the spare key is, right? In the glove department of the boat? By the way, the boat key is there too, so if you wanna take it out you can. And don’t worry about the electric bill or any of the bills - I got you. Make yourself at home. You know I’ve got your back.”
As soon as Alex got off the phone, after thanking his Uncle several times, he pulled up to his parents house. No one was home - surprisingly. He walked up to the house, opened the door, and immediately started to pack his things up. Clothes, movies, books, everything. He took everything that belonged to him. After he took everything to his car, before he locked up, he wrote his mother and father a little note and put it on the front door, making sure they’d see it.
Mom&Dad,
I’m staying at Uncle John’s place for a little bit. I’ve got some soul searching to do, and it’s best if I do it alone. Don’t worry - I’ll be fine. I love you. I’ll call you both soon.
Your son,
Alex.
So, it was true that he wasn’t doing this for soul searching needs - he needed to be away from Leila. He needed to be away from Daniel. But they didn’t need to know that. Before he headed to his Uncle’s place, since it was on the way - he stopped by Jude’s.
He made his way to the apartment, knocking on the front door. He’d seen Jude’s car outside, so he knew he was home. He hoped he wasn’t intruding on anything.. But it would feel nice having someone to talk to.
tell me that we both matter dont we |

This month had been a slow one at the firm for which he was thankful for. While he should be hoping for something so he could have money, he wasn’t too concerned. Between his trust fund and what he already had saved up, he wasn’t too concerned. It’s not like Jude had ever been a greedy one. He let some people think that if they wanted to but in truth he was set for life if he was careful. If he had wanted, he could have done something else but Jude wanted to make his dad proud. Their family was a long line of lawyers and he wanted to follow in those footsteps. He thought if maybe, just maybe, he did that then maybe his dad would be proud. Boy, was he wrong.
Anyways, after he had a normal Friday night drinking himself to sleep, he was out. Jude didn’t even dream last night. Those were the best nights because then he didn’t think about how his life had gone to crap. How he was twenty-eight and not married yet. How he didn’t keep in contact with most of his friends. How he was his father’s biggest regret. Basically how much his life sucked. At least he had Sydni now. They had been calling and texting for the past week which had been nice. Normally he didn’t drink while they talked. Last night he had a couple and once they sort of dwindled down, he sort of binged out. It was unhealthy and he knew it but it was hard to stop. Jude had been doing this for about a year straight now. One day he might quit. One day.
While Jude snored away his doorbell rang. He groaned in his sleep as he prayed it was just a dream. After he rolled onto his back and snored a little while longer he realized, nope, it wasn’t a dream. Jude rub bed at his face before he threw his legs over the side of the bed. He gazed down, realizing he had no shirt on. With a thick tongue that was dehydrated he shouted, ”Hold on!” It took a moment before the dizziness subsided. Once it went down, Jude climbed out of bed and found one of his shirts crumpled up on the ground. He wasn’t sure how clean it was but didn’t care too much. Hopefully he’d be able to get rid of them soon enough. Jude didn’t bother with slippers or shoes as he scuffled to the door.
When he got there he saw it was Alex. Jude rubbed at his eyes before he opened the door. ”Dude what the hell? It’s my one day I get to sleep in.” Jude had to shield his eyes against the light. Once he adjusted he could notice something was wrong. ”What’s wrong and I swear to God if I need to be your lawyer you better be have a plan to pay me back. Big time.” after he stepped aside to allow Alex to enter, Jude moved to the kitchen to get some aspirin. Once those were popped in his mouth and one glass of water down, Jude put on a pot of coffee. ”Want anything to eat? I’m gonna pop in some of those microwave breakfast sandwich things I got the other day.”

theres a thunder in our hearts baby so much hate for the ones we love TAG: Jude OUTFIT: HERE ONE LAST THING: 528 WORDS “Hold on!” could be heard through the door. A smile appeared on Alex’s face. Good. Someone other than Daniel he could talk to. While Daniel was a close friend of Alex’s, Jude was closer. Jude and Alex had grown up together. Yeah – Alex, Jude and Sydni had grown up together. Families were really close around Hope.. so Alex knew instantly if anyone would understand where Alex was coming from –it would be Jude. Of course, being near each other’s families all your life and growing up with someone – it turned out that Leila and Jude were close as well – Jude felt as protective over Leila as Alex was. So, of course, if anyone would understand the situation – and the fact that Alex felt like he wanted to rip Daniel’s head off with his own two hands – it would be Jude. Yep. Jude.
”What’s wrong and I swear to God if I need to be your lawyer you better be have a plan to pay me back. Big time. Want anything to eat? I’m gonna pop in some of those microwave breakfast sandwich things I got the other day.” He smiled at Alex’s first comments, and how they quickly changed to breakfast. He chuckled slightly and shook his head as he entered Alex’s home.
“If you don’t mind, pop one in there for me too – I haven’t ate yet today. And I don’t need a lawyer yet – so, ease your mind some.” Alex shook his head, and ran his fingers through his hair. God, his sister was an idiot – and so was Daniel! How dare they betray his trust like this? How dare they treat him like this? He loved Daniel like a brother – and he and Leila were so close.. How could she keep this from him for a month? A MONTH? Damned, it would’ve gone easier with him if they had just confronted him in the beginning about it – not wait for him to find them screwing each other in the shower!
“I feel like I’m fixing to go insane, bro. I want to kill Daniel right now – I’m not here for a lawyer’s advice – I just need your ear before I go back over there and rip that a## into shreds.” He shook his head, by now he was near the kitchen counter, having followed Jude into the kitchen. His hands gripped the counter top as if they were holding him up.
“Remember how I said I was going to Haven for a few days to camp out and clear my head? Well, I came back this morning – obviously – and guess what. I stopped by Daniel’s house and found him screwing Leila – IN THE DAMNED SHOWER! I mean, can you believe that shit? He’s as old as me, and he’s screwing her. Apparently, they’ve been screwing each other for a month now – and they felt it convenient enough to hide it from me. I mean, you would think it would cross their minds that “Hey, maybe we should tell Alex now instead of waiting on down the line for it so he doesn’t loose his sh*t.” But no.”

As the got to the kitchen, Jude poured them each a glass of orange juice. Even if he didn’t have a ton of food at least he had plenty of the breakfast essentials in the house. Next he opened the freezer and slide two sandwiches out of the box. His fingers punched the numbers in while he listened to Alex finally open his mouth. The sound of coffee being brewed mixed with the voice so Jude wasn’t sure he heard Alex right. He was mad at Daniel? Like the third wheel to this friendship? What the hell? Alex never got mad at him or Daniel. This was...weird. ”Wait Daniel? Like Daniel Zakarian? Our friend who might as well be your brother? That’s who you’re pissed at? Jude’s brows shot up as he shook his head. It was too early to start drinking and this was something that sounded like he needed a drink. For now he’d settle for the cup of orange juice he had poured o have some sugar in his system.
Bad. Idea.
When Alex mentioned how he found Alex and Leila in the shower, he coughed up juice as well as shot it out his nose. ”Ow,” he muttered before he reached for the paper towels to wipe off his face. His sinuses burned as he tried to process the information. Leila. As in Little Leila Scott? The one who was what? Nine years younger then Jude and six years younger then the other two? The one who Jude can still imagine running around after Alex in pig tail braids? ”First off, warn me before I take a drink of something that it might be a bad idea.” He set the glass back on the counter as the microwave beeped. Not concerned about the food so much anymore he simply hit the stop button so it wouldn’t keep beeping. That sound annoyed the piss out of him.
”Second, ew. That is not an image I need this early in the morning although I doubt you wanted it either.” A shudder went through Jude’s body before he brought his hands up to rub at his face to make sure he wasn’t dreaming. Nope, he could feel it. He was awake. ”Third, what the hell are they thinking? Not just about not telling you but in general? Leila’s always been like a little sister. This is...weird.” He shrugged in thought. ”I guess it’s better one of us then any of her last boyfriends. At least you know we‘ll listen your rules.” Probably not the best thing to say right now but Alex needed to cool off. With a shake of his head he uttered, ”Wow,” before he reached for the wrapped sandwiches in the microwave and proceeded to unwrap them.
