Jessica, Sue and Warren: Interruptions (backdated to 6/4/15)

[x-invisiblegirl.livejournal.com]

Sue walks in on Warren and Jessica ruining Warren's plans for the night.

"Does no one knock anymore?," Warren called out, trying his best to throw a blanket over Jessica.  It was made more awkward by the fact that they had been in the middle of something acrobatic when Sue walked into the loft, but Warren managed.

Not that he really cared, to be honest, that Sue had interrupted them mid-coitus.  And actually, maybe Jessica wouldn't mind either. But for propriety sake, he'd do his best to keep up appearances. Especially since, technically, Jean had only dumped him the day before and shouldn't he be upset, even though everything she had said was true: they were two completely different people, it was getting harder and harder to understand one another, and at the the end of the day, he wasn't what she needed and vice versa.

Still.

"Go be useful somewhere else," he said to Sue, wondering if he should bother continuing or not. Looking down at Jessica, who seemed to be stifling a laugh, he debated for a few minutes before adding: "We'll be a while. There's the TV."

Sue had heard that Warren had broken up with his girlfriend and had come over expecting to have to console the man who was well...she wasn't sure, somewhere between a brother and friend. "Awww, do I have to?" she asked in a teasing voice, "I've never seen that move done before."

Jessica was doing her best not to laugh. It seemed that the normally composed Warren Worthington was a little irritated by the blonde woman. She carefully pulled on her tank top and pulled on her jeans. She stepped out past Warren and gave the other woman a grin.

"I'll have to send you the instructions." She offered with a wink before she turned back to Warren. "Hey War, you want to introduce me to your friend? You know, be that gentleman that you are and all that?" She teased.

Waren glared at Sue as Jessica dislodged herself. This was not how his evening was supposed to go."Damnit, Susan," he yelled, grabbing a blanket to wrap around himself. "That right there? That was a cock block."

Straightening up, Warren realized it might take him a bit before he could be presentable.  "Cock block, that's Jessica Jones. Jess, that horrible person is Susan Storm. Slap her for me while I get dressed."

"Don't put yourself out on my behalf," Sue told Warren, a mischievous grin permanently plastered across her face, "You know, if you didn't want to be disturbed you should just tie a tie around the door or put a sock on it. You know the standard don't disturb I'm in the middle of something important sign. How was I supposed to know what you were doing in there?" The blonde gave Warren a innocent smile before holding her hand out to Jess, "Hi I'm Susan Storm."

Jessica took Sue's hand and watched as Warren stepped back into the bedroom and closed the door. She couldn't help but let out a little giggle.

"Sorry about that. You know, if you saw anything. I'm afraid I was a bit caught up." She stated as she ran a hand through her hair. "But enough about my trysts. What brings you by?" She asked. "Warren and I aren't really the talkative type, but I think I've seen you around a time or two, right?" She asked.

"Well maybe," Sue grinned at the brunette, "I do tend to pop up all over the place. Though I had heard that this one," she jerked her thumb at Warren, "had broken up his girlfriend so I thought that he might need a night," Sue nodded her head at the door where several bags of ice cream, junk food and movies were deposited. "Obviously, I should have known better that worrying about that."

Heading out into the common area of his penthouse, pj bottoms on and no shirt, Warren padded towards the bags Sue had motioned to.

He picked the bags up and rifled through them as he walked to place them on the table.  "You should never worry about me, Sue-sue," he responded, looking through the movies.  "Although I do appreciate the sentiment and the chocolate."  Damn his sweet tooth!  "Go get comfortable.  I think I have a pair of your pjs still from when you stayed over last."  He didn't even notice that he'd never extended Jessica the same courtesy.  She had absolutely nothing at his place, and he was okay with that.  Pulling out the pints of ice cream, he carried them to the freezer, except for one.  "You have good junk food taste, by the way.  Should I roll a joint?," he asked to no one in particular.

The relationship blossoming in front of her did nothing to faze Jessica. Warren could have as many lady friends as he wanted, especially if they were as fun as Sue was turning out to be and Jessica got to talk to them.

"I'm good." She stated in answer to Warren's offer, before she gestured toward the door. "Do you want me to split? Because I'd hate to dampen your game, oh mighty sex god." She joked with a wink and a gesture in the direction that Sue had gone.

Warren laughed at that idea. "Sue is a old childhood friend. Want to see her baby pics?," he asked,as he grabbed his phone. He still had the toddler picture from a few months ago. "Stay. There's junk, movies and apparently," he added, "I'm supposed to cry and wonder why I've been dumped later on.". Warren grinned. "You don't want to miss that, do you?"

"I think I'll hold off on the baby photos." Jessica replied with a grin. "But I will definitely be staying to witness your supposed manpain. I mean, no offense, but you don't really seem like the type to GET dumped. So, who's the ballsy lady that did it, hmmm?" She asked teasingly.

Had he never really had a conversation with Jessica? Warren thought about it for a moment before clearing his throat. "Jean. I was dating Jean, but I'm fairly sure I was terrible at it."

"Eh, you win some, you lose some. Honestly, I left my powdery wig and my gavel at home, so no judgement from me today." She answered honestly. "And you know, that name sounds really familiar..." Jessica trailed off. She jumped a bit when her mind filled with flames, death, and screaming, the very image of fighting for their lives. She shook it off and shuddered. "Weird." She muttered before turning her attention back to Warren. "So, what caused you guys to split?" She asked. "You know, if that's not too invasive or whatever." She added with a shrug as she floated into a lotus position near the counter.

Warren thought for a moment before answering.  Noticing that Sue had come back into the room, he felt now was as good a time as any to figure this out.  Opening a pint of ice cream up, he took a mouthful before debating how he would answer.

"I am an open book, Jessica darling," he said, once the ice cream had melted enough for him to speak.  "If I had to be honest, which I am to a fault, I think our biggest problem was our differences, even though that was what attracted me in the first place."  He tapped his spoon on the side of the pint as he tried to explain it.  "I'm honestly not that upset, although I am disappointed.  She is a lovely woman, who most definitely does not deserve me, considering I spent the entirety of our dating relationship sleeping with you," he added, pointing his spoon at Jessica.  "And others. I really am a bad boyfriend."

"You really are," Sue agreed stealing Warren's spoon and taking a bit of the ice-cream before gracing him with an innocent look, "I guess differences can cut both ways, they attract and make it hard for people to connect sometimes. Though you know, the sleeping around probably didn't help with that." the blonde sighed and settled down on the couch next to Warren. "It's ok, we still love you, despite all the faults," she assured him, "but there are just so many of them", she teased.

He responded with an eyeroll. "At least they're countable," Warren retorted. "Unlike you, sunshine. A million monkeys at a million calculators couldn"t come up with a number.". He smiled widely. "And that's why you're here. Because one of those faults is being my friend."

"You too, Jess," warren added. "Can we start a club? Fucked Up Beautiful People? I can get us matching underwear."

"I've got faults, I won't deny that." Jessica joked. "Someone grab a computer, I want this matching underwear idea to happen." She added with a wink.

Warren just shook his head and continued eating his ice cream with a new spoon, as Sue never had relinquished his.  "I'll get Jolene right on it.  Now let's watch some girly movies while I get high and demolish this food. Who's in?"
