t w e n t y f i v e : the one tattoo that's supposed to mean nothing but means everything
-
Isabella's POV
I look in awe at his tattoo. If that's what mine looked like, then I'm in love. He smiles. "Good choice munchkin." I nod. He hands me the mirror and I look. "Wow," I mumble. It was so pretty. We walk out of the bathroom. She gives us a cream and this plastic stuff. We apply the cream and cover the tattoo with plastic. Then we put our shirts back on, and Aiden pays. "Thank you, they're absolutely beautiful," I say to our artist as we walk out. She gives a thumbs up, then Aiden and I start gravitating toward food. "Your turn." He says.
I smile then walk right into In-N-Out. I order a burger then pay, he does the same for himself. We fill up our drinks then sit down next to a window. Behind me were a bunch of palm trees, then red picnic tables. "Take a picture of me?" I ask Aiden. He nods then takes his phone out. I pose with a burger in my mouth and a huge smile because the burger was making a mess. I made sure he captured the trees and table. He takes a picture then puts his phone away. "I'll send it to you soon." I nod then clean my face. We eat and clean up. I look at my phone and decided I could email professors for all the missing homework I probably have.
"We should go to one more store, then get going," Aiden nods, pulling me to Forever 21. "You shop here?" I ask. He laughs. "No, but I want to get something for Rylli and Ronni's fifteenth birthday and they do shop here, so," I smile. Always so thoughtful. I follow behind him as he looks through crop tops and dresses. "Let me help you," I say, as I watch the look of confidence on his face fall into a look of confusion. He nods. "What is their shirt size?" He looks at his phone. "Large." I nod. I look through the tops and find four cute shirts that'd go really good with these two pair of shorts I found. I hand them to Aiden so he could carry, then I go to the dresses. I find two flowy knee-length dresses that were beautiful. I find a romper dress, and then a navy blue maxi dress.
"Shoe size." "Eights." I go to the shoes and find good sneakers that'd go with shorts and very cute flats that'd go with the romper and dresses. I then walk to the handbags, and get small ones that'd fit their small bodies, and would match any outfit. I find two pairs of sunglasses, and then two hats that could go with any outfit. We walk to the register, and Aiden pays for everything. It comes out three hundred and I smile. "Way better than I was expecting, you got a lot of stuff," Aiden exclaims as the cashier stuffs this stuff into bags. I smile. "You have to pay attention to the deals." He shakes his head. "Without you, I so would've gotten the wrong sizes and half the stuff you got for the same amount." I smile. "Thank you." He says as he throws everything into the car. "Anytime," I reply as we drive back to the room. He keeps his sister's stuff in the back.

"Little does Aiden know, I got his sisters and mom something as well," I whisper to Rose over the phone. When we got home, I emailed the professors and they all happily sent everything I missed. So I've been doing everything for the last four-five hours while gossiping to Rose about everything that's happened here. She screamed when I told her all about last night. I smile. But what she told me was ten times better.
"At the dinner, he had another ring box, but instead of a ring, was a key. I was so excited to move into his apartment with him, it'd be so cool. But get this, he actually drove me to a neighborhood close to the college. We stopped in front of a house I'd talked about before." I scream. "HE BOUGHT YOU A FUCKING HOUSE?!" She screams. "I KNOW" I smile so widely it hurt. "His siblings are going to live in the house too, but there are enough rooms that they get their own, and Alex and I are forced to share." She says. I can picture her with that smirk. "I'm going to pretend to still live with you though, so you can have the room to yourself," She tells me in a ramble. I frown. It was really going to suck not having my best friend with me every night. I can't sleep alone. But I wouldn't ever tear this happiness away from her.
