"Hey mum, can I get my tongue pierced?"
The woman looked up at me in a mix of shock and confusion, "Why would you want one?"
"Because I just do, oh and can I stretch my ears and also get my eyebrow pierced?" Her eyes widdened before telling me that it was my body, my desicion. She handed me 5, 20 dollars bills before getting back to work on her computer.
I walked down to the tattoo parlor. He gave me a strange look before asking my age and what I wanted.
"I'm 18, I need my eyebrow and tongue pierced along with a taper kit." I asked, maybe added a year to my age since you have to have a parent's permission if you are under 18.
"Okay, well you're in luck, someone else got their tongue pierced earlier so our piercer is still here." He said, writing out something on the computer. He lead me to the back where a man was sat.
He looked up at me and saw the man standing next to me leave. He greeted me over and told me his name was Christofer. I smiled and greeted myself as well.
"So, have you ever had a facial piercing before?" He asked, and I responded with a no. I had ones in the coma but that was a coma, things weren't exactly on point with it.
"Okay, so basically just try not to play with it a lot, and make sure to clean it." After explaining everything he marked the "sweet spot" on my eyebrow.
"Do you have a certain request for what type of piercing you want?" I asked for a curved barbell with black spike ends. He pulled it out and then sat down. He held up the needle and positioned it on my eyebrow.
Suddenly in a swift motion the needle was through. He replaced it with the curved barbell and then took out a similar piercing for my tongue only it wasn't curved and had ball ends intead of spikes.
He pulled tongs out of a drawer and then carefully places them in the correct spot on my tongue. Just like my eyebrow he slid the needle through carefully and swiftly. The tongue piercing did hurt a lot more though, expecially when he changed out the needle for piercing.
"Okay, and you wanted a taper set?" He asked looking down at the paper which the guy from the front gave to him.
"Yeah, can I get black spiral ones? I heard they were easier to sleep with than tapers and I will more than likely not take them out once I am at a good size." He laughed and then took out a packet of spiral tapers.
"Okay, these are size 12 through 00 meaning. Do you know how to use these?" He asked, I nodded and he sent me back to the front to pay.
"Okay, so the tongue piercing will be 45, the eyebrow is 30 and the spiral tapper kit is 15. That'll be 90 dollars."
I pulled out the money and was on my way. As I walked back I moved my tongue around in my mouth, it felt weird, not painful just uncomfortable.
With the tapers, I had done a bit of research before I asked and turns out that you need to go up little by little. When I did it in the coma, I went straight to 0 and you can't do that without damaging your ears.
I walked past Luke's house. It looked the exact same as it always did, the only difference was a small wreath on the door for Winter even though it was almost over. I eventually found my house and went inside.
"Michael, I forgot, you're father had something for you. It's on the counter in the kitchen." My mother said to me as I passed by her.
I nodded and went into the kitchen. On the counter was a box and a card next to it. I picked up the card;
I was informed of your problems and decided you needed these.
I put down the card and opened up the box. Inside was 3 bottles of pills. I picked up one of the bottles and on it read: Depression where as the other was for Anxiety and then there was another for Depession.
I put them in my room thinking, "I'll save these for something else."
I laid down in bed putting on Whatsername by Green Day. Tomorrow was school. Maybe tomorrow I'll get to see Luke.
*****
Sorry it's so short. A lot has happened in the past week or 2 and I can't explain it so I am turning it into a fanfiction called Tutor.
Yeah, basically there is a boy I like and a lot has happened in the past 2 weeks with him, I might explode. It's going to be Muke, where Luke (who is going to be me in this case) and the boy (who will be Michael in this case) and then his friend who will be Calum and then my crush who will be Ashton. It sound stupid but it'll make one hell of a fanfiction and is 100% based off of true events.
Okay yeah, thanks, I'm dying.
