"I dunno, that sounds like it could be kinda hot," Jagger joked as she tugged him back towards her. "Very voyeristic, wouldn't you say?" He wiggled his eyebrows at her a little and reached around her to grab his beer again. after everything with Jate, and Kayley's first day of school he missed, and Andy's rebellious attitude, the man really needed a good buzz on.
"I think I'm gonna go outside and have a smoke," he told her. Marti's beach house was private enough he could do that and not worry about being interrupted. "I think a joint would be nice right about now. You want?"

"Maybe if it wouldn't be something that the whole world ended up seeing," she chuckled. But really, Marti didn't want those creeps anywhere near her property. "Naw, you go ahead. I'm going to go take a shower and sli into my PJs. Seems like here is the only place I can dress like a slob and get away with it."

"Nothing hotter than a slobby woman," Jagger remarked with a laugh as he stood up and headed towards the back deck overlooking the beach. He stopped and reached into his jacket pocket, pulled out the joint and a lighter and headed outside to light up. With a relaxing sigh after I having that first time, he let his body relax as he closed his eyes and listened to the water.

It didn't take Marti long to shower and before long she was walking outside, barefoot and wearing a pair of PJ shorts and a tank top. Pushing her wet hair over her shoulder, she leaned against the patio railing as she studied Jagger. "You okay?"

Jagger tossed away the finished joint and glanced at Marti before turning his gaze back to the water, shrugging his shoulders. "I think so," he told her, making no pretence. He didn't have to with Marti because she got it. "Kayley's first day of school and I missed it," he said. "I've just been thinking about everything with Kate lately and you know, it just bums me out still. I miss being there for all those things with the kids."

Marti's eyebrows drew slightly together. She knew how much his kids meant to him and she felt for him that he'd missed Kayley's first day. Her arms folded under her chest. "That sucks." She watched him silently for another moment. "I know you and Kate have had your issues but... Have you, I don't know, thought of maybe trying again?"

"Issues is an understatement," Jagger replied, frowning. "And those issues haven just gone away either. They may not get talked about, but they're there." He sighed and looked up the sky, shaking his head. "You know everything that went down, Marti. We went on tour right after Kate and I broke up, so you saw and heard it all and you know I never wanted to end things with her...but how could anyone live with those kinds of accusations? I mean, no matter what I did or said she would never trust me and she sure as he'll never got over what happened with Beth, even if we weren't together at the time."
He leaned against the railing and looked over at her. "It's not so easy to just get back together. I mean, have you ever considered giving things with Brock another try?"

Marti frowned and then sighed. She remembered when things with Jagger and Kate had ended. Jagger had been miserable and they had spent many an hour talking about their exes over a lot of alcohol and then eventually over alcohol and sex. "You don't think you guys have grown any since all of that? I mean, maybe she's let go of some of her insecurities?" She didn't know though since she wasn't even sure if Kate hated her since there were all the tabloids fills with her and Jagger shit.
Marti's eyebrows shot up and she shook her head. "No. But Brock was cheating on me with god, I don't even know how many skanks." She shrugged and looked away because it still stung that she hadn't been enough for her ex-husband and that he had been so jealous of her career.

"Maybe she has let go,of them," Jagger admitted, frowning off into space. "But I'm not so sure I have, or can, let go of how I felt being accused of all that shit. I mean, I'm no angel, but I'm no fucking Brock either. I'd never have cheated on her."
it it was the same old story, and something Jagger had reiterated time and time again. And honestly, it's not like a kate had ever taken back what she had said, or apologized. It had all just been brushed under the rug for the sake of their getting along for the kids.
"Sorry for bringing up Brock, babe," he added after a moment, looking over at Marti and reaching out. He laid his hand on her shoulder and gave it a little rub. "I still think he's a fucking twat though."

"I'm sorry she made you feel that way," Marti said softly. She still didn't understand what had made Kate lose it the way she had. She understood the whole getting upset over tabloid pictures but at the end of the day, that's normally all they turned out to be: tabloid pictures that didn't tell the whole story. "And I know you wouldn't have, I'm just sorry that she didn't seem to know that."
Marti flashed him an appreciative smile and leaned in a little to his touch. "Yeah, I know he is. Sadly, he wasn't always one. But then again, Kate wasn't always so unsure and jealous of things. I guess things just change and obviously not always for the best." She reached up and laid her hand over his on her shoulder. "At least you got some awesome kids out of that relationship. All I got was a bunch of shit I had to get rid of."

"Yeah. The kids are amazing, even when they're being brats. Well, Andy mostly, Kayley is still young enough to be an angel." Jagger laughed, happy to stop thinking about everything with Kate. If he focused on the kids, he was usually pretty good...except when he was missing out on things he thought he should be there for.
He gave her shoulder another squeeze and then released her shoulder, pushing away from the railing. "So. What do you want to do tonight?" He asked her, digging into his pocket and pulling out another joint. Since getting a medical card for it, he seemed to be smoking more of it than before. It helped calm him down and keep anxiety at bay. Lighting it up, he inhaled and offered it to her.

"I wish I could give you advice, but I grew up with a sister," she shrugged her shoulders a little. She figured that Jagger had a handle on things though. He was a good dad, even if he wasn't able to be there for every single event of his kids' lives. To her that want was more than some kids got and she was sure his kids knew how hard he tried.
"Tonight? Not much actually. Today was just super long and so I want to relax," she grinned at him. She eyed the joint for a moment and then reached over and took the joint and inhaled a small hit. She wasn't one who normally partook in them but well, after her long day, she needed just a little. "What about you? You're more than welcome to sleep over."

"I might just take you up on that," he replied, taking the joint back from her and inhaling. "Not really looking forward to driving back to the city and my lonely pad." For the most part, he was okay having his space, but every now and then, it really bothered him. Tonight was one of those nights.
"Only, you have to promise me I get to stay in the big bed, ok?" He wiggles his eyebrows at her playfully. His relationship with Marti was pretty much perfect, if you asked him. They were best friends, they fucked when Ty needed some action, and neither if them was jealous or gave two shits if the other hooked up wih someone else. They were always there for each other, and she meant the world to him. Someday, he hoped, she would find someone who treated her right and deserves her.

"Jeez. You're just super demanding tonight," Marti mock bitched as she nudged him with her hip. "But I guess so. As long as you don't steal the covers like you did last time." To be fair, he'd stolen the sheets but she'd ended up taking over most of the bed so it had evened out in the end.
"Come on," she said and held her hand out to him. "I'm going to be nice and even give you a massage tonight." She grinned at him. "Aren't I the sweetest?" She wasn't even talking about anything sexual for once. She figured he'd had a shitty kind of day and might actually appreciate the massage.

"okay there, miss ice cube feet," he retorted as he turned and followed her back into the house, chuckling softly. "I've never stolen the covers, and if I have, it's because your feet are approximitly the temperature of a glacier and I'm about to die from hypothermia." He glanced at her and stuck his tongue out. "so there."
He slid his hand into hers, giving it a squeeze as his smirk turned into a soft smile. It was nice having someone care about him, he has to admit. He had always been a bit of a loner, but this girl in front of him was his best friend and if anyone messed with her, he would take them out.
"Thanks, Marti," he told her sincerily. "I love ya." He smiled and the two of them disappeared into the house and that night, Jagger slept soundly. It was not being alone.
