~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

    ~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.

    ~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

    ~Trey’s Point of View~I held my breath as tears started streaming down Bailey’s face. I immediately leaned forward and wiped them away, she then tried to bury her face in her hands. I got off her and pulled her into my arms, the ring box fell somewhere between us. “If you don’t think you deserve to be happy, you’re so wrong. You deserve good things. I know you and your mom have worked very hard to not have a whole lot to show for it. I don’t give a fuck what the press says about us, none of us ever have. Hell they say pretty crazy shit about Corey … although that’s mostly warranted. Feisty believes in family, above all else. We are family through and through and anyone important in our lives we’re fiercely protective of and we make sure they are taken care of however they need. But we all need to be taken care of too, even if we don’t wanna admit it. Jude told me he didn’t realize how lonely he was until he met Juliet and I feel that so much. I’m never alone but I was alone in so

    ~Bailey’s Point of View~ Heading to breakfast the next morning I was a nervous wreck. I had already called my mom and told her, of course she was thrilled. She wasn’t surprised though, obviously. But these guys here didn’t have a clue, apparently except for Slade. He knows everything all the time apparently. Oh, except that Trey married Halsey all those years ago. How Trey managed to keep that to himself I’ll never understand. Trey confessed he thought it was all really fast, but it was right. I could only agree. But Juliet got knocked up the first night she met Jude. At least we weren’t moving that fast I guess. Even throughout this week I faithfully took my birth control on time. I had two alarms set on my phone half an hour apart and I only allowed myself to turn the second one off if I had already taken it. Babies were a completely different cup of tea. I wasn’t anywhere near that yet and I made it clear. Trey said he wasn’t in a massive hurry for that, he just needed to tie me

    ~Trey’s Point of View~ I looked at my phone to check the time, prime dinner time already. I was freakin’ starving. Halsey: I’m so excited! Do you think we might have been a good team? I sighed as my driver waited for his next direction. “We going home now,” Jude asked. “I’ll go to Bailey’s, she’s gotta wonder where I disappeared to but I can drop you first,” I said, kind of regretting how I handled things today. But she’d understand soon enough. I typed out a response to my soon to be ex-wife. Me: Just wasn’t our time. I’ll keep you on my Christmas card list though. I sighed again and rubbed my face. That sounded like a dick response if I’d ever heard one, but I didn’t know what else to say. I’d talked to Halsey today more than Bailey and my heart and gut didn’t like that one bit. It didn’t matter that after tomorrow I’d likely never see my first wife again. I wasn’t sure she was getting the impression of that after today. I didn’t dislike her at all, certainly. But there was

    ~Two Months Later~ ~Corey’s Point of View~ “Does he really need to be off so damn long? Just bring the kid along. We’ll have a mascot,” I said, annoyed. I mean don’t babies just sleep all the time anyhow? We weren’t Feisty without all of Feisty. Yeah Lukas toured solo for a bit, but he quickly learned it sucked. We had all agreed, out of the gate when we started this shit nobody in our band would ever be replaced. If one went, we ended it. Granted this was different, temporary … but still. Jude is the face of Feisty. Playing even one show without him seemed pointless. Besides, who the fuck could play and sing like Jude Stone? Nobody. Fucking, nobody. Mick Jagger, Steven Tyler. They had extremely recognizable voices, you heard one lyric and you knew what you were getting. We were no different. “You sure as hell wouldn’t be saying that if the actual kid was on the tour bus. He’s a baby not a dog. You’ve never even been around a baby,” Slade said, scoffing. Like he knew about ba

    ~Bailey’s Point of View~ Paparazzi. Photogs. Paps. PPZ. Whatever. Assholes. “But they’re just doing their job.” What a fucked up kind of job. I mean, I was very small when all that shit happened to Britney Spears but I have You Tube. I’ve seen the videos. They completely fucked up her life and drove her to the brink. I was sitting in a blacked out SUV in front of Trey and Jude’s building, waiting for Jude and Juliet. I wasn’t sure why they were coming with us but I overheard Trey on the phone talking about a united front. If the paps were saying he was hiding behind the band, they’d put the whole band front and center. They did everything together, why should this be any different? Had to wonder if that was Angie’s idea. If I should be taking notes already. It seemed like her brainchild anyhow, and I barely knew her. Suddenly Trey, Jude, Juliet and Slade all fell into the truck. It had third row seating so the couple sat in the back. Slade was in the front seat. I noticed they
