"There, all done. No making out until you're in Sweden."
"You should warn Sadie about that!" I yelled, walking out of the room. "Next!" Lisa yelled from behind me. "Babe, I love you, but you look weird." Millie said when she saw me. "No making out until we're in Sweden, Mills." I warned her. "Won't be a problem."
"Thanks." I replied, rolling my eyes. Millie followed Lisa and I bit my lip, hoping she wouldn't say anything. "Honestly, you don't look worse." Gaten said, handing me a mirror. "I'd be really impressed by Lisa if he did, that'd be impossible." Sadie said. I almost smacked her with the mirror. "No breaking mirrors in my store!" Frank yelled from a couch, entering something into a laptop. "Finn, time for your pictures." He said, getting up to grab a camera. He pushed me onto a barstool in front of a white wall and quickly took a few pictures of me. "You should take up modeling, Finnley." He joked, choosing a picture. "Go tell Lisa she's a fucking tortoise today." He said, impatiently looking at the door. Noah snorted. "I'll do it." He said, getting up and walking into Lisa's studio. "It's the weirdest thing ever to see Noah like this, don't you guys think?" Caleb asked us, turning to Gaten. "He's always like this. Gets on my nerves sometimes." Frank said. "Imagine living with him." Sadie said and he groaned. "I feel so sorry for you guys."
"He's not this relaxed with us." I told him and he shot me a confused look. "Noah is the most laid back person ever, how could he be anything but relaxed. Be basically acts high all the time." My eyebrows shot further up with every word. "Are we sure we're talking about the same Noah Schnapp?" Gaten asked, getting a snicker in return. "Hey Schnapp!" Frank yelled. "Yo!" He yelled back and walked out, dragging his feet slightly as he observed the artwork on the walls. "These nerds are telling me you ain't relaxed."
"Well I'm not when I'm with them."
"Ouch." I said, clutching my chest. "Noah, stop breaking Finn's heart." Sadie told him as he sat down on the couch next to her and Frank. "Sol, Mills will be done in ten, then you can take more mugshots. Also Luna will take more time on Sadie but we knew that already." Sadie smacked Noah on his arm but he caught her arm without even looking and gave it back to her. "Are you two as confused as I am?" I asked, turning to Gaten and Caleb. "Yeah." Gaten replied. "Definitely." Caleb added.

"Next!" Lisa yelled from her room. Gaten got up and Caleb silently followed him with his eyes. "Caleb, stop trying to get into his pants." Frank said, not looking up from his camera. "See, even Frankie is picking up on it." Sadie said just as Millie walked in. "Have you been crying?" I asked, scanning her transformed face. "Almost, wasn't allowed to."
"Same here."
"It's a test, she's trying to see if you're good enough to be our friends." Noah said, looking over Frank's shoulder. "I say that one." He told the guy. Frank kissed him on the cheek. "I'm sober, Sol."
"Straight people." Sadie mumbled, turning the page of the magazine she was reading. "Tell me about it." Frank replied, leading Millie to the white wall. After about five minutes Millie sat down next to me. "Oh man, you look so weird." I said, gaining a glare in return. "I still love you though." I told her and she smiled. "Oh jesus, Sadie, I feel so sorry for you." Frank said. "I know right." She replied, rolling her eyes at us. I flipped her off while grabbing Millie's hand with my other hand. "Okay, you hold them down, I ink them." Frank said, looking at Sadie and Finn. "Whoa whoa whoa, what?" Millie said, looking away from me. "Lisa's orders, if you two act in love, I get to give you guys tattoos."
"We were not told about this." I said as Sadie shot me a smug look. "If you're bored, I volunteer." She said, not breaking eye contact with me. "Hell yeah, what will it be this time?" Frank asked. "This time?!" Caleb asked. "Do they not know..." Sadie and Noah shook their heads. "Well okay were you gonna tell them?" Sadie shrugged as Noah replied "eventually". "Noah, you want one too?"
"Not too big, don't have the time." He told Frank, getting up and walking to another room. "What the fuck is happening?" I asked as Millie just looked straight ahead, utterly confused. We all got up and followed them.

"So, where you guys heading?" Frank asked, getting his stuff. "Sweden, we're gonna stay in those trailers soldier Bev Linetti has in the woods." Sadie replied. "With Linetti? Isn't she a bit..." He started, unsure of what to say. "Crazy?" Noah finished his sentence, putting down his pencil and revealing the drawing to Frank. "Are you sure about this one? I mean the other five are a bit lighter."
"Five?!" I yelled. "Let's just say we've been here before, Wolfhard." Sadie said, grabbing a piece of paper an a pencil, quickly looking at what Noah had drawn. "So let me get this straight," Caleb started, Frank snorting at the word straight, "we're gonna be staying in the woods of a lunatic friend of two people we turn out not to know at all." Sadie nodded. "Okay." Millie said, surprising us all as she'd been really quiet. "Noah, I don't mean this sexually, but take off your shirt." Frank said after studying the drawing. Noah took off his shirt for what seemed like the first time in years. In fact, I couldn't remember even seeing him from the back while he was shirtless. I now saw why. Five small tattoos decorated his back. A gun, a car, a wrench, a fist, and a knife. They all had a letter hidden in them in some way. The gun had an N, the car a C, the wrench a G, the fist an F, and the knife an S. They were us. "Are those..." Caleb had started, looking at the small car on his spine. "Yup, had them done during the New York mission. We stayed here during those weeks we were missing, had to flee the country."
"Does Sadie have them?" Millie asked, looking up at the redhead. "Slight variations. Caleb's is a van, not a car, Gaten has a playing card, and I'm getting a different one for you." She told her. "Wait you're getting one for me?" She asked, looking at Noah. "Yeah, it's slightly gruesome but it's a gunshot wound."
"For Jack?"
He nodded. "I'm just getting a heart." Sadie muttered. "Not that anyone cares." She said. I gave her a small smile. She's in love with my girlfriend.
