Fallen Hope

"One second!" She said.

I waited until she opened the door and let me in. Music was playing. She looked sad.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"I'm really sorry that I didn't tell you." She apologized. "You don't have to stay with me if you don't want to. I know I'm a freak."

"You're not a freak. And don't apologize. I wouldn't want to talk about it either. It's a sore subject. Yeah, I was pretty shocked when I found out. But that doesn't change how I feel about you one bit."

"Are you sure?" She asked.

"I'm positive." I assured. "They say it takes 4 minutes to fall in love with someone. And it's been way over 4 minutes, and I've never felt like this to anyone like how I feel towards you." She smiled. "I've made some fucked up and bad decisions. That will affect my life forever. But I realized that if I never made those choices, I'd never of met you. And it's all so worth it."

She began kissing me. I picked her up and wrapped her legs around my waist.

"You're the best thing that has ever happened to me. I've fallen in love with you too." She whispered. We got on her bed. But she pulled away from me. "Can we please just talk or cuddle."

"Of course." I replied.

We began to cuddle. This felt nice. Just to cuddle. She was looking at my arms. I was wearing a sleeveless shirt.

"What's this?" She asked as she pointed at a tattoo.

It was on the outside of my upper arm. It was a quite provocative pin up demon girl.

"Oh, that's just a tattoo that I got to piss my family off." I answered.  She scanned the rest of the arm that was facing her.

"Do you have anymore tattoos?"

I nodded my head yes. I took my shirt off. "RAGE & LOVE" is write across my chest.

"I really want a tattoo. I don't have one yet." She admitted. I thought for a second.

"Maybe we can get matching tattoos. Like song lyrics. I think I saw a tattoo parlor." I insisted.

"I'd love to!" She gasped. "But let's pick out songs lyrics before we go there first." She got on her lap top and started looking up song lyrics. "Do you like Bon Jovi?"

"I love Bon Jovi." I responded.

"Really? You don't seem like someone who likes glam metal or glam rock." She was surprised.

"Are you kidding me? I fucking love glam." I chuckled. "So what we're you thinking about?"

"I was thinking about getting Always lyrics on our wrists." She announceds.

"That sounds awesome. Let's go."

We both got up. We drove to the tattoo parol and told them what we want.

She got "I'll be there 'til the sun won't shine, 'til the Heavens burst and the words won't rhyme." On her wrist. And I got "I know when I die. You'll be on my mind, and I'll love you always." On mine.

We paid and left. This was normal for me. But obviously not for her.

"Are you alright?" I asked.

"I can't believe we just did this at last minute. What is Eddy gonna say about this?" She responded.

"Who cares what he thinks? You're 18 and can make you're own decisions." I reminded. "Do you not like it?..."

"No, I absolutely love it. But I guess I'm just a little shocked about it. About how I just got a tattoo."

"Look, if he's mad about it for some reason just blame it on me. It was my idea anyway." I insisted.
