NAUGHTY AND NICE BOOK BLOG SITS DOWN
THE GANG FROM
THE INVISIBLES SERIES
"We're going to start off with a few questions for Grant."
"Grant, after isolating yourself for
years, what was it about Jessa that drew you in?"
He runs a hand through his hair, letting
out a long breath. Then smiles over at Jessa and she at him. “Her…” He circles his hand around her face and body. “Her whole aura. It
just screams I’ll protect your heart, just give me a chance.” Jessa leans over and kisses his cheek and he
blushes slightly.
"Grant, have you confided in Jessa about
the complete reason you don’t have a relationship with your dad?"
“You know Jessa,
right? Do you think she wouldn’t pry it out of me?” He laughs and she pinches his arm in a joking manner. “Ouch!” Grant moves his arm.
“You know it’s
for the best.” She raises her eyebrows at
him bearing a smirk.
“I know, baby, I
know.” Grant wraps his arm around her
shoulders.
"Grant, what was your true reason for
pursuing Jen in high school, knowing she had dated/was dating Brady?"
“Was dating.” Brady calls out and Grant leans over giving
him an apologetic expression. Brady waves his hand at him to dismiss the
comment he made as a joke.
“Yes, Brady was
dating Jen. I was in a bad place back then. After losing my mom, and then
Brady’s friendship. Moving in with Kara and her parents was doable, but they
weren’t my family and I always felt like they were forced to take me in. I just
wanted someone to love me. So, pretty much anybody that showed me some
attention, got my attention back.” He
looks down at Jessa and mouths ‘sorry’, but she wraps her arms around his
waist, nuzzling closer.
"We appreciate your honesty. It helps us understand why the two of you were
no longer friends. We knew there must
have been more to the story, than just your father having an affair with his
mother."
"Grant, how could you tell Jessa’s dad all
your secrets, but found it so hard for you to tell Jessa?"
Another swipe of fingers through his
hair. “Her dad is so
intimidating.” Jessa laughs. “He is,
baby, maybe not now so much, but then…” He
takes another breath. “If I wanted him to like me, I had to tell him and it
had to be everything. I know when I’m a father,” he places his hand on Jessa’s stomach, “I won’t take kindly if the
guy in her life was keeping something from us. It was important to me that he
like me, especially after what happened with Jason.”
"Grant, knowing your letters from your mom
were coming to an end, did you feel like you were losing a part of her as well?"
Jessa grabs his hand, giving it a tight
squeeze. “Yeah, it’s
been hard. At first I thought maybe there were more letters somewhere. Like the
one Mrs. Fletcher gave me, but they’re done, and I have to face it. I read her
previous letters a lot to help me through. I miss my mom every day, but Jessa
is my life line now.” He bends down and
kisses her lips and she places her hand on the back of his head to keep him
there for a few brief seconds. The room remains quiet, even Rob.
"Jessa, what was your first reaction to
the letters from his mom?"
“I was
terrified.” She looks at Grant and he
gives her a reassuring smile. Obviously, they’ve discussed this previously.
“How to compare with a mother, let alone one that’s passed away and left
letters behind because she loved him that much? But, it’s different now.” They smile at each other again. “She’s a
part of all of us.”
"Jessa, are you excited to become a mom?
Has being pregnant brought back the insecurities in your relationship with
Grant?"
“Oh excited doesn’t
even cover it—”
Trey chimes in. “The girl is crazy, over the moon.” He leans back and winks his eye to her and
she smiles.
“I can’t wait
and it’s done the opposite with my insecurities. I know we’re the lucky ones.
We made it through that shit to have this.”
She takes his hand placing it on her belly with her hand on top. “Our own
family, The Bishops.” They smile at each
other.“Ugh!” Everyone says in unison.
"Jessa, was the punk look just a form of rebellion and your
recreation? She twists her little longer now brunette hair with her finger."
“No. I think it was in me all along.
Just hard to show your true colors, when everyone around is the same. I was
worried about being different. What happened with Jason, just let me say fuck
it, I am who I am. This dark hair is because I can’t dye my hair with the baby.
Maybe I’ll go red after the baby is born.” She
cocks her eye to Grant.
“You’d look just as hot as you do now,”
he assures her.
"Jessa, Grant had every reason to be upset about you staying in the house with Rob when Rob returned. Why did you feel like he was being over possessive or unreasonable, asking you to come home with him? Why did you doubt Grant so quickly when you were confronted by Emily, guilty conscience maybe?"
“Okay, well one, I felt as though he didn’t trust me. I think with Rob being back, it just threw me for a loop. Looking back now, I should have taken his feelings into account, but it was only for a few hours. Two, I don’t take kindly to people telling me what to do.” She shrugs her shoulders.
“That’s an
understatement,” Sadie adds.
“As far as
Emily, she was always hanging around. I shouldn’t have doubted Grant, but it
was our first fight, I didn’t put enough trust in him that he could handle the
stress of it. I felt like maybe he would say she’s not worth all this shit.
You’re probably right, between my own insecurities and knowing that I cheated
on Rob, I thought maybe I’m getting my payback.” She looks at Grant and he pulls her in and kisses her head.
“It’s all done,
though. We talk, not run, anymore.” Grant
says and Jessa nods her head.
"Knowing tattoos are permanent, why did
you agree to put your lips on Rob’s body?"
She glances his way and smiles before her
eyes veer down to the spot.
“He wanted it. I tried to convince him he didn’t, but telling Rob no, only
makes him more determined. I wasn’t going to argue with him.”
"Jessa, do you feel like you used Rob as a
stepping stone until you accepted your desire for Grant?"
“I guess I could
see where some people think that, but I truthfully thought he might be the one.
Grant just kind of snuck in and showed me what love is supposed to be.” She glances at Rob, giving him a sorrowful
smile.
"Rob, what made you distance yourself from
Jessa?"
“I knew she
wanted more and I didn’t. Don’t get me wrong, I liked Jessa…a lot. But I wasn’t
about to run down the alter and turn into Ward Cleaver. She seemed to want
something I couldn’t give.” He reaches
over and takes a swig of his beer.
He lets out an annoyed huff. “In my mind we were still together. As
far as her and him,” he nods his head
Grant and Jessa’s way, “whatever, I guess.”
"You seem a little bitter that Jessa and
Grant are together. Did you really think
that Jessa was going to sit around and wait for you for months when you didn’t
have the decency to call her while you were on the road. Typically, a man calls the girl that he is
interested in."
“Finally, I’m not in the hot seat,” Brady
jokes and rubs his hands together, eagerly waiting for Rob’s response.
“Listen, I know you think I’m an ass and
you’re right, I am. Just because I fucked up doesn’t mean that I want to see
her playing house with someone else.” He casually leans back in his chair.
Heather and Jenn stare at Rob, and just shakes their heads."Grant, after sharing your first kiss with Jessa on New Year’s Eve, what were your thoughts when Rob kisses her and she walks away with him?"
“Fuck that. You
have no reason to be pissed, I was her fucking boyfriend,” Rob says and Brady shushes him.
"Rob, I am really trying to like you, I
really am. But you’re killing me! I
find it funny, that you want to call yourself Jessa’s 'boyfriend'. (Heather does air quotes) If you were her 'boyfriend', then why were
you fucking Emily in the closet at the New Year's Eve Party.
The last time I checked, none of my boyfriends would have done that, and
if they did, they would probably be dickless."
“I don’t know, Heather, I like your feisty
attitude. Want to go find a closet?” Rob jokes with hollow laugh. “I already
said, I fucked up. I know I treated her like shit and I apologized for it.” He
tosses his beer in the trash can, reaching for another one. “I didn’t
appreciate her, I know that. I’m probably the most undeserving jerk around.” He
stares down into his lap and Sadie pats his knee. Surprisingly, he doesn’t say
anything smart ass, but gives her a small very tight smile.
"Well, if I wasn’t happily married, I may
have given your offer a thought." I roll
my eyes at him and everyone laughs.
"You know, when you aren’t being such a
smartass, you can be a really nice guy.
Everyone makes mistakes. At least
you can admit that you messed up. I am
sure there is someone out there that will capture your heart and you will appreciate
them. Jessa just wasn’t the right girl."
Jenn tries to lighten the mood and take the attention off of Rob, who sits there with a somber look on this face.
"Okay, I think we will move onto Dex now, since Rob has been on the hot seat for a few questions."
"Okay, I think we will move onto Dex now, since Rob has been on the hot seat for a few questions."
"Dex, keeping in touch with Sam?"
“Yeah, she’s
been back here a few times visiting, and I’m flying out by her in two weeks.” He doesn’t add anything more, but the room
quietly overcomes with chuckles and giggles.
“Not to mention
the damn phone calls and texts, you forgot to mention those.” Trey slaps him on the back just as Dex’s phone chimes.
"Sounds like someone may have captured Dex’s
heart. Who would have imagined that? I
think Hell might have frozen over!"
“We’re friends,”
he states.
“Fuck buddies,” Trey says.
“Hey, that’s my
sister,” Jessa chimes in, narrowing her
eyes to Trey.
“Just stop it
guys. Sam and I, we have fun together.” Dex
puts finality to the discussion.
“I’m not looking
for it, but if it happens, it happens. I’m having fun now, that’s for sure,” he answers.
“That’s what all
of us hear, anyway.” Trey chuckles to
himself. “Oh Dex!” he mimics Sam in a
girly voice. Every one in the room is laughing at Trey's comment.
"Sadie, were you surprised when Brady
proposed?"
“Um,” she bites her lips nervously.
“Fuck No,” Trey blurts. “Look at that boy, he’s so
fucking love sick and sappy that you know she knew."
“I didn’t know
he was going to do it when he did, but I did realize it was coming,” she shyly looks up at Brady through her long
eyelashes. “But it was beautiful.” She
places her hand on his cheek and he smiles down at her.
"Brady, when do we get the story of the
proposal?"
“I believe you
get it in Let Me Love (Trey’s story), but I guess you’ll have to ask Michelle.
I guarantee one thing, I totally outdid Grant,” he chuckles.
“Fuck that, I
inked myself forever,” Grant says back.
“I guess we’ll
let the readers be the judge of it then.” Brady
leans back, grabbing Sadie’s hand, laughing to himself.
"Fight nice, now. I’m sure both of you were very romantic when
you popped the big question."
"Sadie, how excited is Grandma Ida about
the engagement?"
“I’m a little
afraid that she might race me down the aisle,” she laughs and everyone joins in. “Kidding aside, of course, she’s
thrilled.
“No one would
have thought Jessa and Grant would beat us to it, but as much as I can’t wait
to be a Godmother to baby Bishop over there, I’m in no hurry for myself,” Sadie says.
“But it would be
nice for the two of them to be close in age,” Brady adds, staring down at Sadie.
“Yes, it would,”
she smiles up at him and him to her,
making everyone in the room believe they are missing something.
“Shut the fuck
up?” Trey hollers and Brady raises his
eyebrows in question.
“We need a wedding first,” Brady says,
technically not answering the question.
Heather says, "Brady, I thought we were close. (Brady
just shakes his head at her) I didn’t put you on the hot seat this time
around. I thought you would appreciate
that. And yet, here you are still dodging our
questions. I guess we’ll have see what
unfolds when we get Let Me Love (Trey’s story)."
"Trey, how does it feel to find someone
you feel the possibility of a relationship with, only to be pushed away when
she has to leave to take care of other commitments?"
“It fucking
sucks.” He leans forward. “The whole
fucking thing, sucks,” he exclaims.
"I am sure in time, you as well as the
readers will find out what pulls Kailey away."
"Kailey seems to have you all twisted up. What
is it about her that you can’t let go?"
“She’s the most
alluring, adoring and stubborn creature, I’ve ever met. Since I’m all those
things too, it works for us,” he laughs
boisterously. “She’s just….just Kailey. When you know her, you’ll
understand.”
“She truly is
the sweetest thing,” Jessa says and Trey
throws his arm around her shoulders agreeing.
"Trey, who’s in the picture that is beside bed in the drawer?"
“Do you really think Michelle would let me tell you?” he laughs. “You have to read my story!”
"We thought maybe we would get a little
hint, or possibly catch you off guard and you would spill the beans."
