It's been two months since my date with Austin and four days since our last date. It's been a month since Riot decided she was going to add her two cents into the matter.

---Flasback---

"Hey Tatt can I talk to you for a minute?" We were at Danny's house for some reason. I nodded and we walked into the kitchen since everyone was outside.  

"I don't like you and Austin together." 

"Uh, what?" 

"I don't like the two of you dating. It's not right." 

"Uh huh. And who are you to decide on what's wrong and right in my life?" 

"Someone who wants you happy." 

"You obviously don't pay attention because Austin makes me happy." 

"No he doesn't." 

"Then please Riot knower of all things who would make me happy?" 

"Danny." 

"Danny?! Are you fucking kidding me? He's got a girlfriend. She's here in case you didn't notice. I don't want Danny. I want Austin." 

"I want you to be with Danny." 

"You can't get what you want all the time. And the sooner you realize that the better off you'll be. I am happy with Austin. Are we clear?" 

"I don't give a fuck. You'd be happier with Danny." 

"No I wouldn't! Have you tried feeding him this bullshit?" 

"Yes." 

"And what'd he say?" 

"He's happy with Myca." 

"Exactly. That's the end of it. Stop sticking your nose where it doesn't belong." And with that I left. Got in my car, and drove to my parlor.

---End of Flashback---

Riot's tried calling me eight times. I don't answer it. I love the girl to death, I do, but she needs to keep her nose out of my love life. I was in my office paying bills when I heard the bell, letting me know someone was in the parlor. Footsteps led this way, and Austin poked his head around the corner. "Hey you." 

"Hi." 

"Whatcha up to?" 

"Paying bills. What are you doing in Dallas love?" 

"Well, I'm here to see you. I wanted to see if you would come back to Orange County with me. Just for a few days, a week or two at the most, because I know you need to do stuff at the shop." 

"Really?" 

"Mhm. You might like it." I smiled at him and looked at my calendar.  

"What's today? November the 8th. Starting tomorrow I don't have anyone scheduled to come until November 29th. Think you can handle me till then?" His face broke into a grin and he nodded. "Oh yes. When's your last appointment today?" 

"Someone is coming in at four to check a price range for something he wants and then I'm heading home." 

"Dinner with me? Then I'll help you pack." 

"I have to purchase a ticket." 

"Already done. Your parlor and I had this planned. I just had to come and convince you. They all feel you need a break, you've been working nonstop since this place opened." 

I laughed, "you all are trouble." He nodded and the bell rang. "I'm gonna go over there." He pointed to the break room and I nodded. Walking to the front I saw the guy and I smiled. "Hey. Let's go to my office" He nodded and followed me.
