Well this is definitely not what I expected

Chapter 32: Aren't Knights in Shining Armor really just Idiots in Tin Foils?

Jackson's POV

   I'm going to take Alex out on a date today. It's a surprise and she will never be able to guess where we are going. I am planning on bringing her to get a tattoo because she told me she wants to get one. I know this guy who owns a tattoo shop and he is letting me bring Alex there to give her a tattoo. I used to work at his shop and I'm really good at giving tattoos. I haven't done a tattoo in a while but I know Alex wont let anyone else give her one, so I'm giving it to her.

   I got ready to go before I left to pick up Alex. I was wearing black khaki shorts, with a white Obey hoodie, and black vans. I was also wearing an Obey snapback that was black with an army print rim. I looked like on bad ass motherfucker. When I got to Alex's house I texted her saying I was outside. I don't really like going in her house when her parents are home.

   She came outside looking as hot as ever. She was wearing really light blue shorts with a black shirt that shows her stomach with a white button up tank-top over it, but she didn't button it  she tied a knot at the bottom with combat boots and a red bag. When she got to my car she hopped in and immediately gave me a kiss on the cheek. "You missed," I said to her jokingly. "I don't think I did," she said back. "You definitely did," I said before leaning over and kissing her lips. "Ok maybe I did," she said after I pulled away. I just laughed before I started driving. As usual Alex turned the radio on because that girl is obsessed with music.

   "Where are we going?" Alex asked me after a while. I glanced at her and saw her looking at me, "It's a surprise," I said to her. "I don't like surprises," she said with a pout. "Well to bad, we are almost there," I said back to her. About twenty minutes later we finally got to the tattoo shop. It  is a little bit far because my parents didn't know I worked there and they wouldn't be happy about it.

   'What are we doing at a tattoo shop?" she asked me. "Well what do people usually do at tattoo shops?" I questioned back. "Get tattoos," she said. I said, "Exactly," before getting out of the car and going to open her door. "Why would you bring me with you to get a tattoo?" she questioned. "Stop asking questions and come with me," I said before grabbing her hand and dragging her into the shop.

   "Jackson it's good to see you again man. How have you been?" Blade the tattoo artist said once we walked in. "I've been good man how bout you?" I said to him before giving him one of those man hug things. "I've been good. So who is this lovely lady?" he asked. "This is my girlfriend Alex. Lex this is my friend Blade. He owns the shop," I said. "Hi nice to meet you," Alex said shaking hands with Blade. "Nice to meet you too. So did Jackson tell you that he used to be a tattoo artist here?" Blade asked. "No he didn't," Alex said. "Well now you know. Jackson you know where ever thing is holler if you need me," Blade said to me. "Ok man thanks," I said to him before dragging Alex to the other end of the shop saying hi to the people I know on the way there.

   "How are you going to tattoo yourself?" Alex asked me. "I'm not. Remember how you said you wanted a tattoo?" I asked her. She nodded her head yes so I continued speaking. "Well I'm giving you a tattoo, so what do you want to get?" I asked her while getting the needle ready. "Hmmm I don't know you can pick but nothing inappropriate," she said. I nodded before getting  started on the perfect tattoo for her. When I was finished it she looked at it and asked me, "Why a sword?" "Well my last name is Knight and knights fight with swords, and I promise to be your knight in shining armor who will always protect you," I said to her. She said awww before giving me a kiss.

Alex's POV

   "Jackson, aren't knights in shining armor really just idiots in tin foil?" I asked him jokingly. "Only you would ask that question baby," he replied. "I want another tattoo and I know what I want," I said to him. "What you don't like your sword?" he said with a fake pout on his face. "No I love it but I want another tattoo," I said. "Ok what do you want?" he asked. "I want a small infinity sign and heart on my wrist," I said to him. He just nodded before getting to work.

   When he was finished I had a sword on the side of my left hand and an infinity sign and heart on my left wrist. It hurt more getting the tattoos on my wrist because of my scars but it was worth it. "Thank you Jack," I said standing up and giving him a giant kiss on the mouth. "Your welcome baby I'm glad you like it," he said back. Jackson's friend Blade walked over and asked to see my tattoos. I showed them and he said they were really good. "Are you getting anymore?" he asked Jackson and I. "We'll figure it out then I'll tell you in a second," Jackson said to him.

   "Do you want any other tattoos babe?" Jackson asked me. When he said that I remembered a picture that I have on my phone of a couple tattoo I thought was really cute. I pulled the picture up on my phone and showed Jackson. "What about this?" I said with a smile. "Sure," he said before calling Blade over to do it.(------->picture of the tattoo they are getting on the side)

   We thanked Blade before we left once he finished the tattoo. I got an anchor on my left hand on my ring finger and Jackson got the same thing on his hand. The anchor represents that we will be with each other through hard times and we will be each others anchor when the other needs it. After getting our tattoos Jackson took me out for dinner at 'Johnny Rockets'. It's a cute little retro dinner and the food and décor was amazing.

   After we ate we hung out for a while at a park that's in town. We were talking the whole time. At 10:00 Jackson dropped me off at home. We would have stayed out later but my parents would get mad. They still don't completely approve. When we got to my house Jackson walked me to the door. "Thank you for an amazing night Jack," I said to him. He rapped his arms around my waist and pulled me close to him. "Your welcome," he said. Just when he was about to kiss me good night my dad opened the door.

   "Alex it's late you have to come in now," he said. "Fine," I said with a sigh. Before I went in though I quickly kissed Jackson even though my dad was standing there. I knew it would piss him off. "Good night Jackson," I said before going inside. "Night Alex, night sir," he said before going to his car and driving away. I went straight upstairs because I didn't want my parents to ruin my good mood. I yelled good night to them so they wouldn't get mad.

   Once upstairs I took a quick shower. I put on some yoga shorts and a hoodie that Jackson left here a few weeks ago before lying in bed. I texted Jackson good night and he replied with the same thing but he added a beautiful to the end. That night I fell asleep with a huge grin plastered on my face thinking about my amazing boyfriend and my awesome date.
