As I stare at the bag Eddie gave me, I take out the weed and look at it closely. And that's when I decide to go to his house. I pull out of the Family Video parking lot, and made my way to his trailer.

As I pulled in next to the van, I stay in my car for a moment. Is this a bad idea? Fuck it. I put on the ring he gave me and grab the bag of weed. I get out of the car and walk to his front door, where I ring the doorbell.

I sit and wait until a shirtless Eddie opens the door.

"Henderson! What are you doing here...it's late." He smiles.

"I know sorry...but I can't smoke all this by myself." I say, as I hold up the bag.

A smirk plasters over Eddie's face before he opens the door all the way, letting me in.

"My rooms down the hall." He says, as he leads me to his room. I step in and sit on his bed, staring at all the posters around.

"So, your a Metallica fan?" He says, snatching the bag from me while looking at my shirt.

"Yeah, my favorite song is Master of puppets."

"Oh so your a metal head? Good thing I can play that."

"You can play that song?" I ask amazed.

Eddie gets up and points to the electric guitar hanging on his wall. Then, he grabs a few rolling papers and a lighter.

"I've never smoked before..." I say nervously.

"There's a first for everything!" He smiles.

I watch him as he sits next to me, starting to stuff a paper with some weed, before licking it and rolling it together.

He hands me the joint and a lighter.

"Put it in your mouth and light it." He says.

I bring the joint to my lips, lighting it up. I let it burn for a second before I inhale.

I pass it to Eddie as I'm coughing.

"Holy shit." I say.

"Good right?" He takes a hit, as we start to pass it back and forth between each other.

Once the joint is burnt out, we start talking.

"You know what I've always wanted?" I say as Eddie glares at me.

"I want a tattoo." He smiles at me.

"We can get you one."

"Are you serious!" I get up excited.

"Yeah what do you want?" He gets up with me.

"A rose. On my ass. Only so that Dustin and my mom won't see it."

"Sounds like a plan. I know a place we can go to." He says as he grabs his hellfire t-shirt, throwing it on with his leather jacket.

"Right now?" I ask as Eddie nods.

I walk out with him to his van and hop in the passenger seat. He starts the van and drives off.

"I can't believe I'm about to make the most impulsive decision ever."

"And I, can't believe I'm about to get Henderson's sister a tattoo on her ass." He glances at me and flashes a smile.

"Well my mom would kill me if she saw it." I smiled.

"Your 18, you can legally do whatever!"

"Yeah but I'm an 18 year old who still lives with her mom and brother. Therefore, there's no hiding when it comes to getting my ass beat."
Eddie and I laugh.

"Yeah no I'm 20 and I still live with my uncle."

"Your 20? A senior?"

"Yeah, well it's hard to pass some classes you know? But this is my year. I can feel it, I'll graduate and flip the bird to Principal Higgins, then run like hell outta there." I smile from his comment.

Finally we pull into a tattoo parlor, with the red flashing open sign right in front. He gets out and runs over to open the door for me as I get out.

He then runs to the building door, opening it for me and coming in behind me.

"Here for a sweet tat?" The tattoo guy at the front desk asks. He had sleeves of tattoos and some face tattoos, with some pretty crazy piercings.

"Yeah I'd like to get a rose on my...butt cheek." I nervously look at the guy while Eddie is next to me laughing.

"I can definitely do that for you...there's a room in the back we can get you all set up in." He says as he signals for me to follow him.

"You coming Eddie?" I look back at him who is sitting on a bench in the waiting room.

"No I'll wait out here for you." He says.

"Okay." I walk with the guy and walk into the room. I prop myself up on the chair as he hands me forms, and I hand him my ID with an inspo picture of what I want.

When I finish the paper work, he tells me to take my pants off and lay on my stomach. As I do that, he rubs my cheek with an alcohol wipe and counts down to when he's going to start.

"This is only gonna hurt a little bit okay? On the count of 3...3...2...1."

I could feel a slight sting, causing me to flinch in the slightest bit. About an hour later, he finishes.

"Okay, we're all done here! You can get dressed, and I'll meet you at the front desk to pay." He says, as I get up and look in the mirror.

It was a great tattoo. I quickly get dressed and go out to the desk to see Eddie waiting.

"You ready to go?" He asks.

"I have to pay." I smile.

"I already did." He says as he opens the door for me. I walk out to his van.

"You know Eddie, you didn't have to. I could've paid."

"Well, I'd be happier knowing I paid for y/n Henderson's ass tattoo." He smiles at me.

I slightly laugh as we both get in, and he drives back to his trailer.
