"We bought you a tattoo and piercing place!" Grace and Ruby exclaimed together.
We all looked at each other in shock. It took us a few seconds to comprehend what they said, but when we did, we all started grinning.
Mel and I started jumping up and down squealing. Annie, Arabella, Jasmine and Lucy joined us.
"Thank you sooooooo much!" We yelled together.
The mothers laughed.
"It's only our pleasure," Julie smiled at us.
"You were part of this?" I asked, grinning. She nodded. I ran up to her and hugged her. She hugged me back tightly.
"I know that you never really wanted to be a corporate slave. Your father would always tell me that you were going to work for yourself one day...and now you can." A single year fell out of her eye and I hugged her again.
"Thank you so much," I whispered.
"Wait," Sam said. We all looked at him. "What about The Black Lodge?"
"We've sold it. Ruby and I have decided that it's time for us to retire. We will help you guys out though."
With that, Ruby walked over to Seth and handed him a key.
"Let's get this show on the road."

Over the course of the next month, a lot of things happened.
Mel and I finished our piercing training and Jasmine finished her tattoo training.
Lucy celebrated her fifteenth birthday.
Joshua celebrated his nine month birthday and Annie is now six months along with Nicole.
We've also started planning Annie and Tristan's wedding.
Seth's met someone. Finally! So now we just have to find someone for Pierce, Tyler, Arabella and Lucy.
We're in no rush for the last two. We don't want them to get hurt.
Sam and I have made no progress. I'm starting to think that he doesn't want to be with me. Sure we flirt and we've kissed a few times, but nothing more than that has happened.
Mel has admitted to liking Alex, so I'm working on getting them together.
Hmmmm...am I missing anything?
Oh yeah, the shop! It's the opening today and we already have quite a few clients.
We've named it Inked: Tattoo and Piercing Parlor.
Right now, Pierce is freaking out because our shop manager, Annie, isn't here yet.
"Calm down, Pierce!" Jasmine yelled, laughing.
"Where are Annie and Tristan?!" He asked.
"They're on their way," Tyler reassured him. " I just got a message from them."
As if on cue, they walked through the door.
Annie's bulging belly was the first thing you noticed. It was adorable.
"There you guys are!" Jace ran towards them.
"Tristan, I need your help you with the band merch!" Jace dragged Tristan and Tyler to the clothing section of the store.
