Bridie

"How are you feeling about today?" "Nervous and happy" "why are you nervous?" "I've never had a tattoo before" "you can handle anything, you will be fine" I nodded at angelic.
"Do you need me to come with you?" "I will be going" turning around dannon was standing at the entrance of the kitchen. "I didn't know you were coming?" "I need to make sure he doesn't touch whats not his" "he is going to need to touch me dannon, he can't tattoo from afar" "that is not what I meant and you know it" "I will be fine" "I'm coming" "okay".
"You do know who her tattooist is don't you?" "No, never met him" "you have. He is very close to the family. Troy carlson" "carlson?" Angelic nodded "I'm still going" angelic smirked "he wouldn't be game enough to try anything. his wife would kill him in his sleep" I chuckled
"Ready to go?" "Yeah. I will see you later angelic" "can't wait to see them" I nodded.

"Are you alright?" "Yes I am, nervous but thats expected" "I can already see if you get these two you will want more" "let's see how I go with these two first".
"I want you to come back to san diego with me" "what?" "You heard me Bridie, we have been at angelic and callan's for two months" "if you need to go, go dannon" "no I want you to come home" "I don't know if I can do that" "I've made some changes to the house while I have been here in los Angeles, the flooring has changed and the stairs" "I just don't know if I can dannon, that's a big step" "yes it is, I know it's not going to be easy but I really want you to come home, where you belong. You have made a lot of progress and I think you can deal with it" I didn't know what to think. yes I have made a bit of progress but I still can't deal with all the men at once and I don't know how I am going to deal with being in that house again.

"We are here" I nodded then took my belt off and got out of the car.
"I'm sorry for dropping it on you Bridie but I needed to say something" "I know you need to go back" "yes I do but not without you" way to make me feel great. He needs to go back but won't go with out me.
Walking into the tattoo shop, troy was at the register.
"Bridie, it's good to see you. Oh and dannon, you too" "troy long time" "it has been" "Bridie I will give you another preview then do some sizing for the stencil and we'll get started after that" "thanks Troy".
"This is exactly what you want?" "Yes" "had a tattoo before?" "No" "and you are getting two done in one day, brave one" I grinned "I just want them done" "I can understand that. Come to the room, I will need to get the perfect size before doing the stencil" "okay".
Following troy to the room, dannon and I both took a seat.
"I'm just going to warn you again Bridie, it won't be too comfortable for you while I tattoo the actual scar" "I know but thankyou" "you are welcome. Can you take your shirt off for me" I nodded.
Removing my shirt troy measured the size of both scars. "Okay you can put it back on, I will make the stencil then I will get you to lay down on the bed" "okay".

Dannon

Watching troy tattoo Bridie, I watched everywhere he touched. I couldn't care less if he is tattooing her, one wrong move and I will put a bullet between his eyes. She is mine. No one can touch what's mine.
Sitting in the room for three hours as troy tattooed her, troy finally moved away from her. "They are both done Bridie. I will let you stand up and have a look before I apply the cream and cover it for you" "thank you Troy" bridie sat up on the edge of the bed as troy handed her a mirror. Seeing a soft smile on her face, I couldn't help but smile "they look exactly how I hoped" "I'm glad to hear that. I'd hate to do it and in the end you are disappointed" "no they are perfect" "good" Bridie handed troy the mirror.
"I'm just going to apply this cream. You can purchase it but for a cheaper option just go to the chemist and buy some bepanthen it works just as good for a quarter of the price. You will need to apply it when you feel the tattoo is dry" "okay I can do that" "do not expose your tattoos to the sunlight for a while. if you do only in short doses and do not go swimming for at least two weeks" "okay". Watching troy apply the cream to both tattoos he then wrapped them.
"You can put your shirt on now and then you are good to go" "thanks Troy for everything" "you are welcome".
Bridie stood up and put her shirt on.
"Let's go fix the bill then you can get out of here".
Following Bridie and Troy out to the front, I grabbed my card out. i don't care how much it costs as long as Bridie is happy with them and I know she is.
"Four fifty for both" pretty cheap "paying it on card" "alright".
Paying for the tattoos, I then put my card in my wallet and my arm around Bridie "ready to get out of here?" "Yeah we need to go to the chemist. Thanks Troy have a good day" "you too".

"Did you think about what I had mentioned earlier?" "Yes" "and?" "I don't know. if you need to go back just go dannon" I just want her to come home. "Not with out you" "I know you don't want to go back with out me dannon but you need to go back" "Bridie" "it's going to be hard dannon" "I know that but I will make it as easy on you as I can" Bridie nodded. Grabbing the bepanthen off the shelf, we walked to the counter and Bridie put twenty on the counter. "Put it back in your pocket" "no I have enough, I could've paid for the tattoos as well" "you don't need to pay for anything" "but I want to".

"Here's your change" "thanks".
"Let's get back to the house" "yeah".

"How did you go Bridie? can I see?" bridie nodded. "If you would like to come upstairs, I will show you" "let's go then" I grinned as angelic grabbed Bridies hand basically dragging her up stairs.
"How do they look dannon?" "Exactly like she wanted them" "good, troy is brilliant at what he does. Did you have a chat with her about going back?" "Sort of" "you just dropped it on her didn't you?" "Maybe" "you have never been one to beat around the bush. How did she take it?" "I just asked her to come home. She just doesn't know if she can or not" "angelic is going to have a chat with her" "let's see how that goes. I really need to get back but I'm not leaving with out her" "I know I'm surprised you stayed this long" "I couldn't push her too much. Now she has finished her sessions, I'm hoping she will be alright" "let's see what happens" I nodded.
"Drink?" "Yeah sounds good" walking out the back, callan made us both a drink then sat down. "Here you go" "thanks" "when are you planning to go back?" "If she agrees, in two days" "good I'm sick of having you here" "thanks" callan smirked "you know you are welcome anytime and I know angelic has enjoyed having Bridie here, another female in the house for a change" "I can imagine being stuck around a lot of males all the time" "yep" both of us sitting in silence for while angelic came out. "Dinner will be ready shortly" "alright hun" "where's Bridie?" "In the room but she's okay just relaxing" "alright thanks".
"Better go in for dinner" "yeah".

Both of us walking inside, I was about to head up stairs to get Bridie but hearing her come down the stairs I just waited.
"Joining us for dinner" "yes I am" "good, I like knowing you are eating right" "I'm always eating, well thats what it feels like" "how's the tattoos?" "They are fine" "no pain or discomfort?" "No not at all. We should go sit" I nodded.

"How did you go?" "It wasn't much" "you didn't have much" "no" "much what?" "Clothes" "You packed them?" "Yes" I internally grinned but she doesn't seem happy. "You didn't need to pack them all now" "yeah well it's easier just to get them out of the suitcase if I need them then they will be ready to go" "okay". There's something eating at her and I know what it is.
