"Hey honey." Ed smiled at me as I entered the kitchen. He was sitting at the table, so I pulled out a chair and sat down across from him.
He's been at his tattoo artist's studio to get a new one today. A thick white bandage was wrapped around his upper arm.

"Hey." I touched his hand gently as a greeting. "What did you get?"

He smiled, reaching up to unravel the band of cloth. It fell away and revealed the jigsaw pieces. But something was different. I took a closer look and gasped. There was a shining new in the center of the band.

It was the one.

"I've finally found my missing puzzle piece," Ed said softly and stood up. I did the same and threw my arms around him, hugging tightly.

"I don't know what to say. I just love you so much, Ed," I whispered into his chest.

"I love you,too, Alice. And I've been thinking about something."

I looked up at him, a questioning look on my face.

"What do you think about getting a tattoo, too?" he asked.

I raised my eyebrows. "You want me to get a tattoo? What do you have in mind?"

"A puzzle piece of course, silly. I already have one and as soon as you'll have yours we'll always be connected!" He sounded like a little kid on Christmas.

"I...I really love the idea. It's cute but uhm will it hurt much? Getting a tattoo?" I asked unsure of what to do. After all needles weren't really my best friends. He took my face between his hands and brushed his thumbs over my skin.
"I'm not gonna lie. It'll hurt at first, but it's just a small tattoo and the pain will fade soon. It's only a little puzzle piece," he explained.

I reflected it before coming up with an answer. "Okay, I'll do it," I finally said.

"Really??" I nodded and gave him a small smile. "Yasss!" Ed cheered and spun me around. I laughed before getting serious again.
"But you have to come with me and hold my hand the entire time."

"Of course, my Love."
