I played with my fingers as we walked into the tattoo parlor. The walls full of projects and amazing drawings. The colors of the ink, the papers all around the room. The art.

"Are you nervous?" He asked looking at me while we waited for the tattoo artist.

"Not nervous....anxious."

"I might get one as well."

"Oh really ?" I asked laughing.

"Yeah...Something random, I'm just feeling it."

"But you already have your arms full of tattoos Kian."

"I know but still, just a little one."

Kian said he wanted to come with me because he loves tattoos and Kylie is really busy right now, so why not.

I told Cam that Kylie was coming because I know he would overreact if he knew that I'm still close with Kian. We have classes together and sometimes we study together...that's it.

"Breanna!" Billy, the tattoo artist said. "Long time no see!"

"I know but I'm here!" I replied laughing. "And, apparently, I brought you a new customer."

"Nice, so what are we going to do today ?"

"Well, I want a Chinese dragon like this one on the back of my hand." I started showing him my phone screen. "And then a charm bracelet on my wrist."

"The Chinese dragon looks dope."

"Yeah...it was a little friend who drew it for me." I said smiling.

"Okay, I'm just going to draw it and then we can start. And you my friend ?"

"Oh, I don't know yet..." Kian said looking at the drawings on the wall.

"Feel free." Billy replied. "Breanna, you can walk into the ink room already if you want."

"Okay, I'll be there." I said nodding.

I walked in and took a deep breath as I sat down. After a while, Billy walked in with the drawing, I placed my left hand over the table and he started working.

"Why the Chinese dragon and the charm bracelet ?" Billy asked focused.

"The Chinese dragon symbolizes power, strength and good fortune and then the charm bracelet...charms used to be considered talismans to ward off bad luck. And now that I'm starting a new chapter in my life, I need this. The tattoos are like 2 in 1, the Chinese dragon to help me and the bracelet to protect me."

"Deep..." Billy replied and I laughed. "And about your talented little friend that drew the dragon ?"

"What about him ?"

"A little friend hun ?" He asked looking at me smirking and I chuckled.

"Yes, he's my boyfriend..."

"Is he...." He asked pointing to the door.

"No, that's Kian, just a friend. My boyfriend is in Italy."

"Oh really? My stepbrother is also living there, Romeo. My dad went to Italy a few years ago and then married with an Italian women that already had a son."

"I had no idea..."

"Yeah, I'm living here with my mom only. Romeo is only a few years younger than me, he's around your age. He's in college studying and then wants to open a tattoo parlor as well."
