Chapter 10

              Sasha’s POV

Saturday and finally home again. It had been nice to see Cecile again, but being at hers and Greg’s house had been a challenge. They had this silent war going on and the tension in the house was terrible. Chris had called a couple of times, and it had actually been a welcoming surprise. It gave me other stuff to think about than the fighting between the spouses.

They had been married for little over a year and already hated each other. Or so it appeared to me. I had always thought Greg was a bit weird, but he had lighted up Cecile’s world and used to make her happy. But not any more it seemed like. During the day when they had been to work, I had browsed the stores for Christmas presents. And unbelievably managed to get most of them done too. But Peter was a problem; I wanted to give him something personal and not just a video game or some music. Luckily it had not been snowing on my drive home; so I came home earlier than I thought I would. We had gotten more snow than normal for a December month already, personally I was eager for spring to arrive.

So I entered Peter’s and mine apartment with a smile on my face, really happy to be home. He was snoring lightly on the coach so I went quietly to my room to chill out after the long drive home.

I stretched in bed and lay there looking in the ceiling, and then the brightest idea hit me. Yes, I know what I’m going to give Peter for Christmas, he has often expressed that he think pierced nipples are cool. Yeah he’s the sweetest guy, but I know he has secretly wanted one for some time.

And now after I’ve met John I know how to set it up. My first impression of John was intimidating, but after it had worn off, I saw a sweet man under all the muscles and body art. He looked trustworthy and took his work seriously. I’m sure he’ll help me plan it. Still with the idea fresh in my mind I sent e-mail to John and asked for his help.

I know I took a risk giving this as a Christmas present for Peter, but I had a feeling he would love me for it. I really hoped he would.

I soon got a replay from John. He wrote that if I came downtown and met him at this new club called ‘City’ at City Hotel tonight he would help me with my scheme. He wrote he would do the work for free, but I had to pay for the jewelry my friend picked out. But the conditions were that I had to dress so my lovely tattoo was showing and that I had to dance at least one dance with him. And he notified me that Chris would be there as well, but that I should not tell Chris that I was coming, it should be a surprise. He had also added in his cell number with strict order to call him when I was outside.

I did not have for habit to dress so my tattoo showed. I normally tried to cover it up, but to a change it didn’t seem so bad. And I defiantly needed to have some fun after the days spend with the fighting couple.

The sign of Peter sleeping on the coach earlier told me he was out last night. So that meant that he probably wanted to chill tonight, and the same probably went for the rest of the guys. A one on one date with Chris was not something I was up for tonight, I wanted to dance and have fun, not be stuck with one male alone. But if John was there I would not feel so self-conscious about Chris. Chris made me drool, no doubt about it. There was something about Chris I could not put my finger on, but I wanted to see him again too. So I eagerly answered John that I would see him later tonight.

To find something to wear that would meet John’s demand I needed to head home to the house. I wrote a note to the still sleeping Peter that I was home and that I had gone to see mom and dad. For a late dinner I would bring pizza on my way back for us to eat.
