Marley Rose

Hey, guys! I'm Marley but you can call me Marls if you want. :) I'm pretty sure you're here for the same reasons I am. I hope you're having a great time, and feel free to hit me up! As long as you don't ask about my music or my dating life, then you're good to go!

Text: Marley & Jesse

Jesse: Oh yeah lol Oops!

Jesse: I definitely did that on purpose.

Jesse: Man, I wish I could've seen your face!

Jesse: I've found a lot of cute peeps here. I mean, everyone here is gorgeous but sadly, I haven't really had time to make any connections.

Marley: You're mean.

Marley: Thank goodness you're cute.

Marley: Is that a cue for little old me to play matchmaker? >:) Tell me, what's your type again? Aside from singer-songwriters named Rose, of course :p

Yeah, I think we all forget about how good we actually have it now. Trust me, I know all about it. I wouldn’t want to go back to the ‘child star days’. No matter how bad I feel now, I just always try to keep in mind that I’ve had it worse. Fans honestly are the best wake up calls. There have been many days where I felt like just giving up on this life I’m living, and just do something else. But then I went to a convention, or a meeting, or just walked down the street, and heard stories, about how I’ve ‘inspired’ people or helped them, and moments like those made me realize what I’m doing it for. If that eloquent actress and hopefully new friend is me, sign me up. I’d love to be your friend.

Hmhmm, it’s gonna be quite interesting. I read the plot and script and I was shook. So many plot twists and so many crazy shit happening. I’m glad you’re excited! What about you, though? Any new projects? Songs?

Okay, Mom Talk Alert, but that’s mostly why she likes you so much. She admired your tenacity and your resilience. I know it’s weird that strangers know so much about our lives, but that’s the bright side, I guess. At least there’s good that come out of it, right? Wow, I can’t believe I’m actually friends with Quinn Fabray now. Will really knew what he was doing with the Marque, huh? How do you find it so far?

I might have something in the works, actually. Me and my manager were thinking of doing a collaboration with someone and I think said someone is a very good friend of yours. Nothing’s set in stone yet, so I can’t say any more either. Let’s just say redacted just won a huge Grammy award last year.

General Notes → Emery pays Marley a visit at her place for some donuts  instead of walking their dogs in a park

EMERY SMYTHE

He doesn’t anticipate her reaction. The idea of not being in a relationship doesn’t upset him exactly. It’s always been about people making judgements about him before trying to get to know him. He listens to her praise him and every time he tries to interrupt her, every time he opens his mouth to speak, he can’t get a word in. She keeps going and any bruised ego he might have had at his latest break-up fades fast.

She keeps moving closer and before he can really think about what he’s doing, he finds himself cupping her cheek and leaning in to catch her lips with his own. It had been an unspoken invitation to kiss her and although this is a line he’s always been careful not to cross, the temptation is entirely too much this time.

MARLEY ROSE

When Emery closed the gap between them, it was barely a surprise and yet Marley found herself holding her breath as if it was the most unexpected thing in the world. She leaned back onto the couch, letting him take the lead as her arms snaked their way around Emery’s neck. The joke he mentioned a while ago entered Marley’s thoughts. I’m on my way over to make out with my new girlfriend. She paused from their kiss, leaning back to look at his eyes and let out a small chuckle before reconnecting her lips with his. Making out was familiar territory for Marley—one of the few—and if there was anyone in this world she felt most comfortable with talking about intimacy with men, it was Emery Smythe. 

For a brief moment, doubt and guilt crossed her mind. This all seemed too familiar. The last thing is wants is to lose Emery the way she lost all the other people she cared about before, but the part of her who wants it to work so bad is willing to take that risk again and again. She’ll work harder this time, and she will love stronger. At this moment, there wasn’t anyone more perfect than Em, and she really does care about him. Marley was now lying on the couch with her head rested and laid-back, allowing Emery unrestricted access to her neck. She doesn’t know where this could go. All she knows is that right now, she’s braver than she has ever been.

EMERY SMYTHE

‘I’m sitting so far away because this is my spot. Even Farley knows that.’ He liked the fact that she moved closer though. She was in touching distance and he’d always been a particularly touchy-feely person; especially the more he drank. He’d only finished his first glass as Marley worked through her second. He listened to her story; feeling himself tense up slightly at the thought of anyone fighting with her, anyone yelling at her. It didn’t sit well with him in the slightest. ‘Maybe the idiot should have discussed marriage with you before just springing the question on you.’ he remarked coolly. He found it very easy to blame Chris for everything. ‘You can’t just spring that shit on a person because honestly in the moment, almost anyone would say yes.’

When the conversation turned to him, he leaned back slightly and shrugged his shoulders. I’ll forgive you because you’re cute.’ he laughed before shaking his head. ‘There’s no-one on the scene long-term.’ he answered simply. ‘I’m not really boyfriend material Marls. Most people make assumptions about me because of what I do so they either stay away cause they’re not looking for sex or they approach me because they’re just looking for sex. Don’t get me wrong. I’m not afraid to indulge in the occasional one night stand but it becomes exhausting when that’s all you have on the table.’

MARLEY ROSE

It came as no surprise to Marley that Emery would take her side. Time after time, he has proven his loyalty to her, especially during her roughest patches in the business. He has always been there for her, and she hated seeing him this way. “Not really boyfriend material? Are you kidding? You’re like the most boyfriend material guy I know, and that’s saying something but you you know I know a lot of guys.” Marley joked, hoping to brighten up the mood even by just a little bit. “Seriously though, we’ve known each other four years now, and this is the first time you missed going to one of my tour shows. You’ve probably been to more of my shows than all my exes combined. If that doesn’t show commitment, then I don’t know what does.” She leaned a bit closer to Emery to emphasize her points, taking his hand in hers. “You’re smart, and funny, and kind. Really kind, and patient, and considerate. Even with all your experience, you never make me feel “ “Not to mention you’re pretty much Adonis reborn.” Marley has become a pro at flirting at this point. That was her charm. She was never the sensual girl, but rather the sweet girl next door. Her compliments to guys were usually a bit exaggerated, but with Emery, every word that came out of her mouth were genuine. Granted the delivery was flirty, but that’s how they’ve always been.

“Seriously, Em,” Marley starts, her grip tightening, her thumbs going around in soft circles. “You are the epitome of boyfriend material. It’s as if you came out of a Dream Boyfriend factory a perfect mix of every girl’s fantasy. If they can’t see how amazing you are, then that’s their fault, and it’s definitely their loss.” She knows how this sounds. She knows how this looks, with her face slowly itching her face, now a renowned veteran at this dance. he knows where this is going—her lips pursed, blue eyes meeting green. It was a talent of hers to make it look natural, not at all reflecting the eagerness inside. It’s a dangerous game, but whatever happens, happens.

EMERY SMYTHE

With a feigned groan, he got up from his seat and followed her through to the couch. He made himself comfortable on his spot; the opposite end of the couch from where Marley sat. He knew he was in for a good night when she finished her first glass. Tipsy Marley did not come out to play often and Emery loved when she did. He reached over the refill he glass and offered her a grin. ‘Well Miss Rose, I think the question on everyone’s lips is just how could you get engaged and fail to tell your most important friend?’ he prompted, arching a brow.

That particular bit of news had shocked him. Marley was one of the people he’d be eager to tell if something so exciting had happened to him and truthfully, he felt a little put out that she hadn’t confided in him until the whole thing was over.

MARLEY ROSE

Marley scrunched her nose at the question she knew quite well was coming. "Well, if it makes you feel any better, you're the only one who knows." With that, Marley once again emptied the glass Emery refilled for her. She may not be amazing with liquor, but she takes pride in her self-control. She never gets too drunk to the point of blacking out. It's just that she knows it doesn't take much for her to lower her inhibitions, so she usually stays away from it. "Aside from Chris, of course, and Farley." She added, starting to feel the wine's effect. "It was just crazy. It was crazy! It was crazy." She added dramatically, her arms a little too animated than usual. "We were uh, making one this one night and I had to stop it, because... well, you know. I prefer to wait, right?" She paused to grab a donut before continuing. "Why are you so far away from me, by the way? I don't have cooties!" Marley complained with a childish pout as she scooted closer to Emery, twisting her body to face him completely. "Anyway, so I thought he was going to break up with me after that because he got really cold but then two days later, he popped the question while we were out having dinner at his place. I said yes, because I couldn't find it in me to say no." With the donut gone, she grabbed the bottle again and started to refill her own glass. She was the perfect amount of buzzed, and it was just the right amount push to get through telling this story for the first time. "I did though, obviously. Unfortunately, I found the courage a week after he proposed. The fight we had was awful, and I... I don't he'll forgive me any time soon."

With her glass half full, she placed it on the coffee table to pace herself and busied her hands with a throw pillow, settling it on her lap. "Anyway, what's going on with you, Mr. Sexpert? Any chance you'll be a love-xpert soon?" A laugh escaped her lips as soon as she said it. "Okay, my bad. That was awful, but you've got to give me props for trying."

EMERY SMYTHE

‘You know you’re a rude one Marley Rose.’ he said, shaking his head as he followed her through to the kitchen. ‘I’m wounded that you could hug my dog before me. Sometimes I think you’re only my friend to get to him.’ He pulled out a seat at the counter and plopped himself down. Over the years, he’d come to feel very comfortable in Marley’s house; so much so that he had a particular spot on her couch that he considered his. ‘I couldn’t stop by without a little welcome home gift now could I? Especially since I failed in my friend duty and didn’t make it out to any of your shows this time round.’ he shrugged although he offered her a smile.

The smell of donuts filled the air and he groaned. ‘Fuck me, they smell good.’ As soon as they were in grabbing distance, he closed his fingers around one immediately wincing at how hot it was. Regardless, he took a bite. ‘These are so good babe.’ he praised after he’d finished. ‘I have had dinner which is why I brought the wine. You and I have a great deal of catching up to do, and catching up is always better over wine.’

MARLEY ROSE

Marley couldn't help but laugh as Emery devoured one of her donuts. "Hush, you, you know it's perfectly fine you weren't able to go to any of my shows. It's not like I expected you to fly all the way to Asia. It was a bummer you missed all the food, but if all you want is to hear me sing then I'd gladly do that whenever, wherever. If you're worried about showing your support, then that's silly because I know you do whether or not you're physically there." She poked his side a little bit, hoping to tickle him slightly and make him laugh. "You know I can't handle your pouty face." With that, Marley grabbed the tray of donuts and brought it to the living room, setting it down on her coffee table.

Emery Smythe was one of the few people Marley genuinely felt comfortable around which is why she didn't bother changing out of her 'house clothes' which are gym shorts and a loose white tee. She sat on cross-legged on her couch and poured herself a drink "Okay, so do you want to go about our blast to the past?" Marley asked with a teasing grin after emptying her glass. "Do you wanna go old school and play the roles of interviewer/interviewee?" Truth be told, Marley Rose was quite the lightweight. She rarely drinks especially when there are cameras around, but she feels safe enough with Emery that she doesn't mind letting loose. "Lead the way, Mr. Smythe."

Jesse: That definitely was one of the best headlines. Although, the real Brangelina did end up blowing up, so I'm not sure if that was a compliment lol

Jesse: He really was an idiot but the sex was so good! :(

Jesse: That's okay :) I'm over it. It's his lost.

Marley: Well, technically, so did we. Maybe that reporter was actually psychic! D:

Marley: uhm ok TMI alert!

Marley: I'm sure you did that on purpose >:( You love seeing me squirm #smh

Marley: But seriously, it totally is his loss. There are tons of cute guys here at the Marque, so I'm pretty sure you'll find someone way better than that guy. You find anyone cute yet? ;)

[jesse-a-st-james-blog]

I’m definitely taking advantage of having my own pool today. So, if anyone needs me, I’ll be swimming my troubles away.

[marlsnroses]

Or you could tell them to the greatest-most-bestest female in the world.

What’s been bothering you, J?

[marlsnroses]

andersonbowtied:

God, that would have been awkward! I’m so glad they didn’t get you to do that quiz. Although I’m sure if they tried, then you could have simply refused and they wouldn’t be able to do anything with you. I wouldn’t let those quizzes bother you, though. They’re really not important.

Are you hinting at something here, Marley? I don’t want to get excited if you’re not referring to who I think you are.

Yeah, you’re absolutely right. How’s it going with you lovelife-wise if you don’t mind me asking? I know how nosy the media can be, but have they ruined anything for you yet or something? I could give you some tips at evasion, or the more discreet date places in LA. Four year of experience kind of got me a lot of inside info.

I don’t know, Mr. Anderson, am I? I’m totally teasing, of course I’m talking about you, silly! So what do you say? Would you do me the honor of doing a collab with me, Blaine Anderson?

[marlsnroses]

antheacrawford:

I made milk shoot out of your nose? Okay, that’s an achievement and I’m going to go ahead and take a fuckin’ bow for that. It’s weird because it’s not even the games we’re playing that’s funny, it’s the people I’m with. We just goof around and somehow, it’s popular. You’re always welcome to my apartment and I’ll play some games with you, Marls. It’ll be fun.

Well, I was running on two hours of sleep and was adjusting to a completely new timezone, but it’s still totally a win. Really? Count me in! That sounds like a lot of fun. Just promise you’ll be patient and won’t laugh at me if I kinda freak out when I can’t figure out how to work the thing. 

[marlsnroses]

andersonbowtied:

Wait, has that actually happened to you? You were put on a Buzzfeed personality quiz? That seems a little strange. Oh, I’m the exact same. It’s nice because you know everyone on here feels the exact same and has had similar experiences as you. It’s kind of refreshing.

It’s going well! I’m working on my new album, I have one song pretty much ready to go but I’m not releasing it just yet Oh, stop, you’re too sweet, Marley! I think it’s all yours this year.

Oh yeah, it was pretty crazy. I actually went to Buzzfeed and shot a video where I answered  some random questions, and they told me which Marley Rose song defines my relationship. It was both fun and weird. I guess I was just thankful they made me answer that instead of the more popular “Which one of Marley Rose’s ex-boyfriends is your soulmate?” quiz, because that would’ve been extremely awkward.

Well, I’m really excited. My producer and I have been talking lately, and he was suggesting I do a collab with someone to mix things up a bit. Do you know any guy recording artists? Preferably a relatively fresh face, I don’t know, maybe last year’s Best New Artist?

[marlsnroses]

lquinnfabray:

Honestly, maybe you should thank God for that. If you didn’t have to spend that much time alone, feeling unheard, you probably wouldn’t have been able to feel this much and write about it. Thanks to you, many people feel less alone, even when they are. So, it’s one for the team, right?

Oh boy, that’s great to hear! Please, tell your mom I said thanks and that her words mean a lot to me. It’s always great to receive some love and feedback, so really, thank you. Oh, I can tell you a bit more. It includes many many fight scenes, and you’ll either love her or hate her. No inbetween.

That’s... quite an interesting take. You’re right though, I mean, it’s bad but I sometimes forget how good I have it now. I suppose it’s normal to need a wakeup call every now and then to remind me just how much of an impact we can make as artists. Sometimes it’s through a crying fan at a concert or a standout fan mail, and on rare occasions, through an eloquent actress and hopefully a new friend.

Color me intrigued. An action movie, huh? I have a feeling it’d be hard to hate your character you play, but I’m sure you’ll surprise me. Look at me, you barely mentioned a plot, and I’m already waiting at the edge of my seat.

MARLEY ROSE

After two crazy months filled with ramen, roasted ducks in Bali, and oysters in Taipei, Marley Rose’s Unchained Asia tour is finally over. She’s is back in LA in her three-bedroom cottage in Beverly Hill complete with its own pool and garage. It looks like one of the houses she and her mom saw on MTV Cribs back in the day. Marley always found it a bit excessive, but her agent said it was a steal for its price and could be a real investment someday. Besides, the look on her mom’s face when she saw the kitchen practically sealed the deal.

Millie Rose was still in Ohio which meant Marley has the entire place to herself. It’s been a while since she hung out with a friend, let alone invited one over. The dynamic he has with Emery is definitely unique. Her mom even teased her, calling theirs a romantic friendship. After fluffing the pillow next to her and Farley for the eight time, Marley grabs her phone and sends Emery a text.

EMERY SMYTHE

He’d almost been disappointed he’d promised to bring Bernie along with him; it meant he had to take his car and after their conversation discussing his bad boy status, he’d desperately wanted to show up to Marley’s house on his bike, leather jacket on his shoulders with a fake cigarette hanging between his lips. Almost because in truth, he was very much looking forward to seeing the singer. He’d considered trying to surprise her at one of her Asia concerts but work commitments hadn’t granted him the opportunity.

His phone buzzed right as he was parking his car and he laughed at her message.

You’re rude Marley Rose. I got those donuts for being my pretty and witty self. I am looking forward to what you whip up though donut fairy. XO

Thus far, he hadn’t encountered any paparazzi which was a welcome surprise. He’d been pictured with Marley on more than one occasion and while he loved playing up to the camera sometimes, it was bothersome to have to second-guess everything he said or did when he was with her.

He knocked her door, Bernie sitting patiently at his feet. He had a bouquet of flowers in one hand, and an expensive bottle of red wine in the other.

MARLEY ROSE

Marley jumped off the couch immediately when she heard the knocks on the door. Sneaking a glance at through the peephole, she opened the door swiftly with a huge smile on her face. “Here I thought you’d pull a Sandra Dee on me, Smythe.” She was about to leaning towards him, seemingly about to go in for hug until she directed her attention to dog beside him instead, giving Bernie big a hug. “Hey, Berns! I missed you!” She let her hug linger for a couple more seconds before throwing a look to Emery with a wider grin, feeling proud of her teasing. “I’m kidding,” Marley said as she rose from her crouch, giving Emery a tight hug. “I’m really glad to see you, Em. Farley’s out by the garden. Bernie can join him, and we’ll deal with them after we finish in the kitchen. We wouldn’t want to get mauled because we exposed them to peanut butter”

After guiding his dog to the garden, Marley brought the Smythe brother to the kitchen. As promised, boxes of flour and jars of peanut butter were out on the islands as the singer-songwriter took a vase out from the cupboards and placed the flowers in them. “They’re beautiful, Em. Thank you.” She said as she placed her hand on top of his. She was really glad he was there with her, and as if on cue, her oven dinged, bringing her back to earth. “Sorry, I got a little too excited preparing and made a batch already.” With a shy smile, Marley pulled out the pan from the oven, letting the smell of freshly baked doughnuts fill the air. “We can still bake if you want though. And I totally forgot, but have you had dinner? I already ate, but I wouldn’t want you skipping straight to dessert and wine.”

emery-smythe:

How very dare you Marley Rose! I am the epitome of a bad boy. I have the leather jacket and the motorcycle to prove it.

I do find it so very strange that people get so interested in our lives. You know me, I’m an open book when it comes to just about everything but there have to be some things we keep for ourselves. Do you want to tell me what happened? Why did things end? I promise. I will shout from the rooftops that my name is Emery Smythe and I’m on my way over to make out with my new girlfriend.

Well, that’s a shame. Truth be told, I have always preferred dorks to bad boys. I guess I just never saw the appeal of leather jackets and/or motorcycles.

You are, and I’ve always admired you for it. Sometimes, it’s still a little crazy when I remember that you host a show called Aural Pleasure, and you’re dubbed as a sexpert. Even crazier that I was a guest there and that’s how we met. He uh, he proposed to me last June, and I said yes. It was a secret engagement. We called it off before we got the chance to tell people. Come on, Em, stop being silly. I know for a fact there won’t be any monkey business, because we’ll be too busy munching on whatever we’ll be baking. I make a pretty mean PB&J doughnut.

strongwheeledartie:

Oh damn, haven’t made it to Tokyo yet. How’s it been? I do admit, getting sushi from Japan does sound amazing, so it’ll have to go on my list for that alone.

I’m Artie, by the way. Best wishes for your travels! Is it for a tour? Just for fun?

Nice to meet you, Artie. I’m actually a big fan. I more or less devoured your book on the way to here. It’s for tour actually, but I’m wrapping up and on my way back to LA in a few days. It’s been really fun, but I also miss my mom and my dog.

[marlsnroses]

antheacrawford:

You’re welcome, babe. Ah, it’s nothing about the skill of video games, people don’t watch me because I’m good… usually. I mean, with some games they do. But it’s mainly the content I make with others that they live for. I have a little group of friends from all over the world and whenever we play together, we record the whole thing and just make a “Funny Moments” compilation and for some reason, it’s popular. Guess it’s just my charm that people love. It’s funny, I didn’t grow up with them either. I had a strict religious upbringing - it was only when I moved to LA and moved in with my ex-roommate that I was introduced.

Oh, my god, that’s where I know you from! I remember I saw one of your videos once while I was eating breakfast, and I some milk might have accidentally shot out my nose. Really? I guess I just assumed you grew up with all the Play Stations and stuff. If that’s the case, then maybe there’s some hope for me yet in the video games department. I play with my friends sometimes, but I usually just end up just teasing them.
