Michaels pov:
Nothing like shopping for absolutely nothing on a Saturday morning. Not to mention by myself. Why would I choose a Saturday to go shopping. Not to mention Saturday Morning. It's like a zoo of animals in this mall.
What should I do though?...
Hm, maybe I could get my nose re-pierced? I did like my nose piercing when I was a teenager. I should have kept it. But hey, now I know what to do.

I started to wonder to the other side of the mall since that's where Medusa is.
"Ow! Watch where you're going kid!" Some old man said as HE walked into ME. How the fuck is that my fault- whatever just angry people. I'm not even a kid- I'm 21.
"Gee sorry- how about you-" I stopped myself before I get into a fight and continued walking.
Finally at Medusa, and- Holy shit- that's a very long wait. I think I'll just go to that tattoo and body piercing shop I saw on the way over to this one.

I walked into the shop and walked up to the guy at the counter.
"Hey welcome to Kings tattoo and body piercings, how can I help you today?"
"Um hi, I'm just looking to get my nose pierced." I'm so awkward around people, I swear.
"Great, can I get your name so I can mark you down?"
"Oh right, it's Michael."
"Alright, would you like me to put you down as Mike or anything?"
"Oh uh... I just go by Michael, thanks..."
"Alright well you can have a seat over there and a piercer will be out shortly" The guy smiled kindly and I sat over where he said to.

I've been on my phone for not even five minutes when I hear my name being called
"Michael, uh, no last name."
"Oh that me-" I followed him back but something's... he looks... "NOAH CARTER?!"
His eyes widen as I see him take a better look at me.
"Michael Afton?! Holy crap."
Noah was my Ex from high school. We never had any bad tension between us, we just broke up because school was becoming very important and it was getting really hard to focus on it. After that we completely drifted away though. Never contacted the other after.
"Michael- sorry- I forgot you don't like being called by Aft-"
"Yeah it's whatever- I didn't know you worked here-"
"Yeah man, y'know, gonna get the cash, make great money here."
I took a seat as he grabbed some disinfectant stuff. His red hair looked a lot better now.
"So, you work anywhere?" He asked me as he walked over.
"Yeah, just picked up a job as a bar tender- I hate it but whatever gets me the money."
"You live alone?" He asked me.
"Yeah- I got the hell outa that hell house as soon as I could."
"Ha- yeah don't blame you-" Noah chuckled a bit. "Oh wait- what side did you want the piercing on?"
"Left side. So you still live with your sister?"
Noah moved over to the left side of my face and started to disinfect my nose.
"Yeah, I feel bad kicking her out of my house since she has no job or a place to stay."
Noah grabbed a pen and marked a dot on my nose. He handed me a hand mirror.
"Yes, no, keep, change?"
"Yeah that's good."
Noah grabbed a needle and came back over to me.
"You know, I missed you, Michael. A lot."
"I missed you too... why didn't you text me or even talk to me?"
Noah didn't respond, instead, he shoved the needle through my nose without warning.
"Haha-" Noah laughed a bit.
"Ha.Ha. Very funny." I said sarcastically.
I stood up and looked at it in the big wall mirror across the room.
"We should meet up again..." Noah said.
"Yeah. Here, let's exchange numbers again."

We exchanged numbers and I went home. Noah had a busy day and had to pierce and tattoo other people, so I left. I hope I do see him again.
