He Found Me

To Do List...

"Uh Tyler, do you um.. Have something I could a-ah wear?" I asked hesitantly. I mean how do I act in this situation. His eyes darkened and he just stood there for a minute before running off behind a tree. Oh great, is he leaving me, alone, NAKED, in the WOODS!?!? But thankfully a clothed Tyler came back holding a pair of boxers and a t-shirt.
"The extra clothes we had only had boy clothes" he said scratching the back of his neck looking directly in my eyes.
"Yeah uh that's fine thanks" I said as he threw the clothes to me never breaking eye contact. I scurried off behind a tree and changed, the clothes smelled like Tyler mixed with a bit more nature. After I changed I walked back to Tyler, he was sitting against a tree playing with a dead leaf, I sat down next to him
"So... Uh em werewolves huh?" I said awkwardly.
He looked at me and then laughed. He laughed so hard he fell to his side and I swear I saw a tear escape his eyes.
"What?" I said with a giggle, I couldn't help it his laugh is contagious!
"After everything that just happened that's what you say to me "so uh werewolves?"" He said as his laughter erupted once more followed by my own, it figures that would be the dumb shit i say in a very odd situation.
"So well now what?" I asked
He raised an eyebrow
"Well what do you want to do?"
What do I want to do? What don't i wanna do I thought
"Get a tattoo, buy a pet chipmunk, donate to a panda foundation, win a game at like some sort of festival, go bobbing for apples and ride a horse. And that right there are some things I wanna do today that I could think of as of right now." I said waiting for his reaction
"Well than let's get started"
I looked at him shocked... No way.
"Wait really!?!?"
He smirked
"Well, yeah." He said getting up and placing a hand out for me... Today was going to be awesome!

After showering and changing Tyler took me to a tattoo parlor about 30 minutes away. THIS IS GOING TO BE EPIC. I always wanted a tattoo!
When we walked into the store we were greeted by a guy who looks a lot like the Big Show (from WWE) just with 40 more tattoos covering every visible part of his body.
"How can I help you" he said looking up from his ink.
"Hi" Tyler said "today is this lucky ladies first tattoo"
"Wonderful" the big bald guy said to me as he reached under the desk taking out a big black book.
"Do you have a design in mind or would you like to see some ideas?" He asked gesturing to the book.
I paused a moment before saying
" I want a tiger, a big tiger with its mouth open doing down the right side of my stomach."
Tyler looked at me with raised eyebrows, to be honest I didn't have that planned I just came up with it in the spot.

The man led us to the room in the back, but before I sat on the black leather chair, I looked at the bald man and said

"You know, screw the tiger. I want a wolf. A wolf with a mix of green and blue eyes." I said now taking into consideration that this tattoo would be on my body forever.

A weird look passed through Tyler's eyes, perhaps a look of pride . I sat down on the chair and waited for the pain.

8 Hours later,

Not going to lie, that was definitely not a stroll in the park, but Tyler held my hand the whole time, kept me calm, and once my body felt numb enough to handle the pain he kept conversation with me about school, and my grams, and his family etc etc.

By the time he was done, my body felt numb, all around the tattoo was red skin and I was so scared to look at it. I looked at Tyler's expression, he was smiling.

"Is it good?" I whispered to him,not wanting to offend the big bald man.

"Look at it yourself" he said pointing to the large mirror just right of me. I turned my head and my jaw dropped.

It was marvelous.

The wolf looked an awful lot like Tyler, large, dominant, fierce.

I thanked the man and walked out of the parlor, slowly, careful not to cause more pain that I would feel later when the numbness went away.

"So" Tyler said looking at my side and then at me, probably trying to sense whether or not I was in pain. "There's this exotic pet shop not too far from here, where I am pretty sure we could try to find a chipmunk, and if they don't have it well then maybe we can settle for a hamster?" he said hesitantly.
"Only if your up for it of course."

This boy, scratch that, this man is perfect.

Before I could process my actions, I grabbed his perfect face and kissed him.
