The next weekend came quickly. Thankfully Peter hasn't done any more of his stupid shit. Nothing even remotely exciting or bad happened. Since I have nothing to do I decided to text Carson my dorm number since I found out he used to go here so he should have no issues finding it. I also told him to be prepared to do some piercings and a couple tattoos. After twenty minutes of listening to music, I hear a knock on the door and open it while Carson walks right in like he owns the place.

"What piercings do you want?" He immediately asked.

"Just double piercings in the normal place and an industrial piercing and both ears. As well as a septum piercing." I told him. As I finished talking I saw him grab antibacterial stuff and a few different needles and rings since before he said he would choose what rings I would have and I would tell him what piercing I wanted.

After thirty minutes he had finished doing all the piercings. As soon as he put the supplies away he took out his tattoo gun and ink. "So what do you want and where?" Carson asked me.

"I want a semicolon on my left wrist, a crescent moon on my right ankle, and a rose on my left thigh. Also little bats behind my ear." I told him confidently, but he could easily see the nervousness in my eyes.

"Hey, it's okay to be nervous. If you want me to stop for a second just tell me, okay?" He told me.

"Okay, thank you." I smiled at him. He smiled back at me which reassured me. I took a breath as he dipped the needle into some of the ink.

Three hours later he was finished with the tattoos and had wrapped them up for me. Telling me to keep it wrapped for about three hours. As he packed up I told him to sit on my bed with me and watch a movie. We ended up choosing Zombieland, as he had never watched it. While I was enjoying it Carson kept getting grossed out. While I was silently simping over Jesse Eisenberg I noticed Carson was simping over Woody Harrelson up until he took off his hat. I found it funny because when I first watched the movie I had the same reaction. After the movie ended we started to watch Coraline. In the middle of the movie, I ended up falling asleep.

"What the fuck!" I looked up to see who yelled and saw that it was Liam. As I was about to ask why he was yelling I felt Carson's arm pull me towards him. I quickly looked over to see that he was somehow asleep.

"Liam, we were watching movies and ended up falling asleep. We weren't even cuddling while we were awake." I told him in a tired voice. I remembered about the wrap and gently got out of Carson's arms. As I took off the wrap on my thigh showing that the entire side of my thigh had roses on it.

"What the hell is that?" Liam asked me in a stern tone. I just roll my eyes and continue to unwrap the others. While I do that Liam just looks at me in shock. He only then notices the piercings as I stand back up. "When? Why? What the fuck did you do to yourself."

"I did what I wanted and I had it done earlier today," I told him while looking him in the eyes. In return, he just walked to his dresser and then went into the bathroom with clothes without saying another word. I just go back into my bed and cuddle up with Carson.

I woke up the next morning and saw Carson on the floor awake. "Why are you on the floor?" I asked him. He slowly sat up before responding to me.

"I just woke up and was going to go to the bathroom, but then your roommate walked out of it jumpscaring me so I was just thinking about my life choices. Also before you ask he just walked out of the room." He somehow knew what I was going to ask him. Before I say anything else he gets up and goes to the bathroom. While he's in there I decide to get up and get dressed. As I was putting my shirt on Carson walked out of the bathroom causing me to jump a bit.
