~Trey’s Point of View~ “I feel like … I need to do something big. But she’ll also be pissed at me if I do something big. I’m all twisted up,” I said, dropping my head on the table. “Women,” Slade said, taking a drag of his joint. He rarely smoked weed, but he’d been stressed lately with all his businesses. He was stretched pretty thin. I kept telling him to-- “Hey! I have an idea,” I said, snatching his joint and taking a drag. It was like a light went off in my mind. He just shook his head and took a sip of his whiskey. It was 2 o’clock on Wednesday and I’d barely gotten more than a couple vague texts from Bailey so far this week. I wasn’t sleeping, I was losing my shit. Juliet offered to go talk to her, but I decided against it. “Well…” Slade finally said, when I didn’t respond. The weed was working, I was gonna let that happen first. “Her mom! I should go talk to her, don’t ya think,” I said, running my fingers through my hair. We had a meeting set up for Friday, with a n

~Bailey’s Point of View~ I had an hour left until I could safely get the hell out of here. If I tried to leave before six usually someone had a problem with it. Most nights I was here until seven or eight. But today there wasn’t a whole lot going on and I was so caught up on my work I already had everything ready for Nadine in the morning. She never gave me the courtesy of returning the favor but I won’t go there. The elevator opened and someone stepped off holding a giant box of roses. I practically leapt to my feet, knowing right away those were for me. I just knew it. There were no other women on this floor and nobody would send a man flowers. “Bailey Kline,” the delivery guy said. I nodded, absentmindedly and accepted the box. I could already smell them, and the clear cover over the top showed how pristine and perfect they looked. When I took them in my arms and tilted it toward me, I saw there were some California poppies in there too and I laughed. I scurried to my desk and s

~Trey’s Point of View~ I bounced my leg mindlessly, nervous. They were about ten minutes late, and I hadn’t gotten any messages. Hadn’t gotten any word from Bailey or her mom since yesterday. I was absolutely dying to know how things went with Greg. There wasn’t anything in the news and things seemed all quiet. Too quiet. “I’m sure they’ll be along shortly, I appreciate you waiting,” I said, standing from the couch and moving toward the realtor. He was a good friend of Slade’s so I knew he would be cool about it. But I also know time is money. The owner of the condo we were standing in literally went to his firm yesterday morning. I was the only one he’d shown it to and we both knew the minute it was a live listing there would be many offers over asking price. But the seller was an older lady who was moving to Florida to live with her kids, she didn’t care a whole lot about the money. She just wanted it gone and fast. Well nothing moves faster than an all cash offer and I was wi
How To Get A Divorce - Feisty Series (2 of 5) 16 - I Heard It Through The Grapevine
~Bailey’s Point of View~ Trey ended up pulling some sneaky shit and paying for our condo anyhow. But mom was adamant he not pay for the homeowners insurance or the HOA fees. I was shocked to find out the HOA fee was half of what we were used to paying in rent but this is LA so I shouldn’t be too surprised. I wasn’t sure how people could afford both that and a mortgage. After some paperwork was signed Clay took us around, showing us the gym and pool. There was also a play area for kids. What I was mostly happy to see was the twenty-four hour security. I don’t know why now that we had half a million dollars sitting pretty in our bank account it didn’t bother me that Trey bought our place. I snuck a peek and he’d paid about $435k for it. His name didn’t go on the deed, just mine and mom’s. Maybe it was knowing I could have bought it now if I wanted to. But really, I wanted mom to have that money to play with. Trey mentioned a spa day and suddenly it was all she could talk about, bathin

~Trey’s Point of View~ “I think it’s a little soon but I hate to miss a trip,” I said, chomping down on my burger while on the phone with Lukas. One of his sisters was having pretty major surgery on Monday, she was playing basketball with some friends and messed up her rotator cuff. Since his family was like our family, we were all going to surprise her and visit. We always like any excuse to go home. But he wanted me to bring Bailey and well … since my mom knew I had a girlfriend I couldn’t exactly go home alone. Especially since I never introduced her to my wife. But at the same time things were still so new and fresh I didn’t know how she would feel about meeting my parents. I didn’t know if her mom would want to come. I guess all I could do was ask. But really if Bailey said no, my ma of course would take it personally. “We can’t very well go home without you, Mary would have my balls,” he said, clearly he had a mouthful of food too. This was also true. I sighed. “Yeah I’

~Bailey’s Point of View~ I threw myself into the back of my mom’s car as she gave me a strange look. “Am I driving Miss Daisy,” she asked, as she shook her head. “No time for semantics, it’s already 11,” I said, trying to tame my hair. I had done it in big waves and made it look decent but with the wind and the sweating that happened from rushing around it was ruined. After the orthodontist we ran a few errands, including buying me a decent suitcase since I couldn’t exactly get on a private freaking jet with Feisty using an old beat up backpack. Plus mom and I had gone a little nuts shopping this weekend, and I had a ton of cute new stuff. I barely had time to get the tags off of everything as I packed. Now I had no excuse for dressing like a hobo, and I certainly didn’t want to make Trey look bad. Not when the public was accustomed to seeing his face next to Halsey Ulmer of all people. I had to wonder when their divorce would actually hit the gossip mags. I mean so far it was
How To Get A Divorce - Feisty Series (2 of 5) 19 - Rock Me On The Water
~Trey’s Point of View~ I gulped and began to sweat as my mom took out yet another baby album. I knew she would but damn, I needed to get Bailey some breathing room. To my ma I was certain she looked entertained, but I knew better. She was tired and just placating her. She didn’t need to see my first fucking haircut, my first trip to the butcher shop. Yeah ma had polaroids of that. Food was love in our family. “Help me get Mary the fuck away from my girl,” I said to Slade as I handed him a beer from the cooler. He looked out across the yard at my ma who was already in the middle of some embarrassing story. Pictures of me peeing in bushes, who knows what. “But look how happy she is huh,” Slade cooed. “Fuck you, your mom isn’t like this,” I said, falling into a lawn chair. “She’s annoying as shit in her own ways and I don’t bring females home,” he said, sitting next to me and grabbing a huge plate of food off the table. “Traitor,” I said, shaking my head. From the moment we walked

~Bailey’s Point of View~ As if I needed more of a reason to fall hard for Trey, his family … his friends … hell Feisty as a whole, they were all just amazing. So laid back, easy going but brutally honest. Pretty much like how mom and I were when it was just the two of us. I regretted not having her come but I knew it was for the best. They didn’t flaunt their money, but it was in full view. Nobody was sitting around talking about designer brands or the luxury cars they had. The conversations were real, normal. But all that stuff was certainly around and there. Corey had a watch that looked pretty damn expensive. Hell all of his tats had to be tens of thousands. I saw him up close when we were swimming and he was just covered, like Travis Barker only his stopped at his neck. I could never understand for the life of me why anyone got tattoos on their face. He also had his nipples pierced which was hard not to stare at. Slade had a silver chain around his neck and he played with it
