Ok, well not only have I been really busy, but it's been really hot which isn't a great combination to get me writing chapters lol. I apologise to all the people who have been waiting so patiently. But the good news is that my holidays officially start to tomorrow and I PROMISE (I really do) that the next chapter will be up tomorrow!! :D

Guess what??? I actually managed to write another chapter! :o I kept my promise! *raises hands triumphantly in the air* I said I'd post today (UK time) and even though there is only an hour and 45 minutes left of today it still counts!! So here it is. Please review - I love reading your comments!! :)

Chapter 12

“I can’t, it’s not any of my business.” said Jack. Tasha looked at him with an expression that clearly said “I don’t believe you”.

“Listen, there is a problem, but it’s to do with Martha and she wants me to stay out of it, so that’s what I’m going to do.” replied Jack sharply. Robbie looked surprised at Jack’s snappiness. Tasha looked at him.

“Jack, I don’t know what this is about, but what I do know is that if anything she will need your support, even if she’s pushing you away. I don’t know, it’s just seems to me that Chris doesn’t support her that much, so you need to as a friend. “

“Tasha” snapped Jack “It’s her problem, not mine. Why should I care?” and with that he stood up and walked into his room, slamming the door behind him.

Robbie looked at his wife.

“I’ve never seen him like this. Something’s got to be bothering him, but I can’t see how what is happening to Martha would affect him this much – he hardly knows her.” whispered a puzzled Robbie.

“Robbie” replied Tasha with an exasperated sigh. “I love you, but you really can be thick sometimes. Of course he’s upset and angry about Martha’s problem! He loves her!”

That night, Jack wondered over to the Surf Club, attracted by the loud music blaring out through the dark night. He entered and found himself immediately surrounded by bodies moving to the music, alcohol and flashing lights. It was hot and airless, despite the doors being wide open but Jack didn’t care. All he wanted to do was forget.

He managed to squeeze himself through to the bar where he quickly ordered a beer. Lost in his own thoughts he started going back over the conversation he and Martha had had earlier that day.

“Don’t touch me! I needed your support not your judgment! Just don’t speak to me.”

Those words just kept running through his head, and the guilt was mounting inside of him. He hit the bar in frustration. Since when had his life become such a mess?

Suddenly he was aware of someone coming to sit next to him. Great, he thought to himself. The one night that he didn’t want company and he was getting it. He turned around to see a girl with chestnut brown long hair, looking at him. She actually reminded him of Martha. Smiling she moved her face near to his so that he could hear her speak over the music

“Bad day?” she said sympathetically. Jack laughed.

“More than bad.” He said wryly.

“Aww poor you.” The woman replied sweetly. “Let me get you a drink, my name’s Alex by the way.”

Another beer was placed in front of him and he gulped it down, gradually forgetting his troubles with each drink that Alex bought him.

I don't like her already, and i'll tell her where she can put her drink! :P You finally updated. YAY, Jack is so selfish sometimes, is he the one being smacked and forced into doing disgusting things? NO! Yet he still thinks the world revolves around him. Anyway your writing has always been amazing and just continues to get even better. Please update soon. :D
