[jude tyrion walker]

hey stranger. remember me? :)

[KATY ELISE EVANS]

Your name sounds familiar. You might need to jog my memory a bit :P

[jude tyrion walker]

let's see what i can do... blue eyes... tall... handsome... has an amazing talent with a hat... allergic to pineapples? remember yet?

[KATY ELISE EVANS]

Oh yeah. It's Steven, right? lol. JK. Hey Jude. How are you?

[jude tyrion walker]

i forgot how mean you are to me ;p ... kidding
hey beautiful. i'm great actually. guess who is divorced and officially on the market.

[KATY ELISE EVANS]

Not mean, just.....um...yeah, I got nothing. lol.
Your divorce is finalized?!?! How are you? How is Jason and Beccah?

[jude tyrion walker]

yes finally. after several negotiating meetings. finally it's done and over with. and i feel good. better than i have in years actually.

they're good surprisingly, better than i expected. beccah's preparing for college and jason has been too infatuated with his girlfriend to really be around lol ....

but i do have to talk to you about something

[KATY ELISE EVANS]

Hey, at least it is done now, right? But I am glad that it is finally done and that you are feeling good.

I am glad that they are good too. Is Beccah going away to college or just going to the University here?

Okay. Um, what's up?

[jude tyrion walker]

yeah, i got full custody of my kids though so i'm happy about that despite how much money she took from me. but yeah, i'm happy.

she's going here, she wanted to leave but after everything went down with her mom she decided to stay here so she can still live with me. she knows i'll take care of her.

so... you know i'm infamous for having quite the baggage. and i know we're due for a weekend date in NY soon, but before i had you officially agree to do it i have to tell you about... a recent change in my life. well i don't think i told you about Ryan, but i'm sure you know who he is... Jason's best friend?

[KATY ELISE EVANS]

Well yay! At least you got full custody of them. They are totally worth it. You have some really awesome kids, Jude.

And I am glad that Beccah is sticking close to home. I told her that when she makes it as a big designer, she needs to hook me up with some of her awesome designs. lol. She has such talent.

Yes and yes. I am looking forward to the trip. And yes, I know who Ryan is. He is a good kid.

[jude tyrion walker]

yeah it was worth it. thanks. i know i do. i'm really glad you like them. they like you too btw.

she does. haha, you would. ;p ... i'm sure she'll take care of you. you're her favorite teacher. she has a knack for art ^_^ i can see you two now. you being a famous singer and her being your personal fashion designer ;p

yeah well, he was in an abusive home... so i took him in and its been a few months now. and.... i've... actually decided to officially adopt him.

[KATY ELISE EVANS]

Well, yay! I am glad that they like me too. It would make me a little sad if they didn't. :)

Aw. Yay! She was one of my favorite students...but shh. Don't tell. I am not supposed to have favorites. You know, I wouldn't mind that scenario. It would be fun to work with her

Wow. I didn't know about his home life. He hid it so well. But that is sweet of you Jude. To take him in like that. And wow. Adoption. That is a huge step. But that is so sweet of you. He was pretty much like your son already. Now it will just be official :)

[jude tyrion walker]

who wouldn't like you? you're great (: ... i'm glad they got to know you before... you know.. me and you happened. it makes things easier.

haha well that's good to know. if that happens, just promise that you won't forget about lil ol' me when you two are all rich and famous ;p

yeah exactly. over the last few months, i've grown to really care for him as a son and i really wanted to be his legal guardian. to protect him ya know? ... he already gave me his approval so we're just waiting for everything to get finalized. but you're okay with that? me taking on another kid n stuff? i know i come with a lot of baggage and it isn't fair to you

[KATY ELISE EVANS]

That is true. I am pretty awesome :P And yeah. I kinda wonder what they would have thought of me if I hadn't known them before you and I happened.

Forget about you?! Never! That would be almost like sin! We can't have that happen :)

Yeah. That makes sense. And Jude, I am more than okay with it. It's sweet and your an awesome father and I know you will take care of him. And everyone comes with baggage. For the most part, I don't mind yours. Like I said, your kids are amazing.

[jude tyrion walker]

i know.. i still can't believe you were one of their teachers the entire time. what a small world.

exactly! blasphemy almost! lol

thanks. that really means a lot. so... we're still on for our NY date? you in for this weekend or are you busy?
