Shutting my laptop, I pushed back from my desk and spun around.
"Well boys, we have our slot secured for Jeep Beach. If ya'll send me again, I may actually come home with one this time." I said
"Good lord, are you going to have a bunch of cars like your father?" Ken asked
"I'm probably going to have more. The older jeeps are cool" I smiled
"You out early today?" Ken asked
"Yup. Yet another tattoo appointment. So I will see you guys on Monday, no shows for me this weekend" I said
Waving to my co workers, I heading outside and made my way to my truck. Oh, I need to text Asher. Pulling my phone out, I shot him an 'i'm leaving' text as well as the address for the tattoo parlor. Starting up my truck, I let it run for a hot minute and texted Carl to let him know I was heading over. Getting a thumbs up from him, I pulled out of the parking lot and headed over. My work is a bit away from the place, so I had to pass our town to get there. But, pulling in the parking lot, I saw Asher's car and smiled. I'm actually surprised he did come, I didn't think he was going to. Pulling in next to him, I hopped out and he walked over.
"Well, you showed up. Excited?" I asked
"Sure" He shrugged
"Oh yeah, your face totally shows it" I said rolling my eyes
Walking over to the door, I held it open and let Asher walk in first. Pretty sure it's suppose to be the other way around, but it's fine.
"Hey Erin!" Carl said standing up from his desk
"Hey!" I smiled and hugged the man
"Who's this?" He asked
"This is Asher. He moved to the area and is looking for a new artist. So I brought him along to meet ya" I replied
"Nice to meet you Asher" Carl said and shook the boys hand
Carl is a pretty husky guy. He's tall and muscular, while also being covered in tattoos. The nicest guy ever to.
"So, you ready to see the design?" Carl asked
"Yes sir" I smiled
He nodded and we headed to the back of the shop where he had all his stuff set up. The back is an open area with tattoo chairs and tables, he's got a table set up since i'm getting this on my ribs. The front half of the shop is two rooms across from each other. If the client wants more privacy.
"So, we're doing this on the ribs right?" He said
"Yup" I smiled
"You're getting a rib tattoo?" Asher said
"Yes, why do you think I wanted you to come. This shit is going to hurt" I laughed
"Aw you brought me to hold your hand" He laughed
Shaking my head, Carl held up the design and I smiled. It's a really cool dragon design, the main piece will be on my ribs, then the tail will go down and join the tattoo that's on my leg and hip. I'm so excited.
"So man, how many tattoos do you have?" Carl said while getting the drawing on to the stencil sheet.
"A good amount. Have an idea for one, just having trouble actually figuring it out" Asher said
"Well, if you like my work and want to give it a try. Let me know what you're thinking about and i'll sketch something up" Carl said
"Maybe. You did all hers?" Asher said
"Yeah, she started coming to me when I was an apprentice. Then I opened this shop, have two other artist here who are pretty damn good. She's my walking canvas" Carl laughed
