Tattoos on my wrist

Hello, I'm back with a new story! Let me know your thoughts and if you want part 2! Enjoy!

Here's some basic info for the story:

Everyone has a tattoo on their body that's theirs; they get it at birth. Whenever you fall in love with somebody their tattoo appears on you.

Right arm: tattoo of their romantic partenrs

Left arm, specifically wrist: one big tattoo of their spouse, undearneath smaller ones for their children

Brad's POV

I was sat by the dinner table with my family. It was my parents anniversary and I only hoped that one day I'll be just as lucky to be so in love like they are. I looked at my Mom's arms as she passed the food around the table. On my Mom's left wrist was my Dad's tatoo. Underneath there were two smaller tattos, for Nat and I. On her right arm were tattoos of people she has loved in her life. Some were truly beautiful. I then looked at Dad's arms; a few more tattoos adorned his right arm. Nat had only two tattoos on her right arm. He past boyfriend and her current fiance. She was lucky to find love so quickly.

I sighed as I looked down on my arm. I didn't have a single tattoo yet. I had so many crushes, but I never have truly fallen for someone. Everyone keeps teeling me that I shouldn't rush this and that love will find a way, but sometimes it was just a bit too much.

'Brad?' asked Mom softly

'Sorry' I said as I snapped out of my daydream and grabbed the bowl of mashed potatos

'You'll find your love soon enough sweetie. You can't rush love' she said softly

'Yeah, I know' I muttered as I put some food on my plate

I ate in silence as Nat told us about Tom's proposal. They were supposed to come home for the weekend, but Tom had a work emergency. Mom cooed over her ring and the story as I just sat there numbly. I was happy for her, but my loneliness was getting a bit much for me.

I was brought back from my anxious thoughts when my phone began ringing. I quickly took it out of my pants and my heart fluttered when I saw who was calling. Trissy. I excused myself from the table as I answered the phone.

'Hey Bear' he said happily

'Hey Trissy, what's up?' I said just as happily

'I just miss you' he said giddily

'Well, I'm glad to hear that because I've missed you more' I said with a small chuckle

'Not possible' he whsipered

A comfortable silence fell between us.

'When are you coming over to see me?' asked Tris after a moment

'I'll be in London next week. I'll see you then' I said unsurely

'But then we'll be working. I want to spend some alone time with you' he whined

'I haven't seen you in forever' he added after a moment

I felt my heart flutter even more. I then felt this tingle on my arm and I gasped when I looked down at my arm.

'Fuck' I muttered

'What happened?' asked Tris worriedly

'Oh. N-nothing' I said quickly

'Brad...' he said heavily, clearly getting more worried

'I have to go... I spilled coffee all over myself. I'll text you later' I said quickly
