After my little talk with my "uncle" I went downstairs to find everyone else either talking or playing video games.
"Do you need clothes?" Mikey was walking over to me.
"Yeah," I was watching Ray kick Frank's ass at the video game.
"What the hell was in that other bag then?" Frank looked up from his game.
"Two outfits and art supplies," I rolled my eyes at him.
"Wow."
"To the mall then" Mikey went to get his keys.
"Is there a Hot Topic there?" I went towards the door.
"Yeah"
"Then we only need to go to Hot Topic"
"Okay, to the car"
We got in the car and to the mall in a few minutes. We went to Hot Topic and I bought one of everything they had except flip flops. I only bought one pair. We left each holding five bags, with two people following us, holding five bags each. We dropped them off in the car and then went back to the mall for some lunch.
"What do you want?" We were in the food court.
"Subway" We walked over and I got a salad.
"Are you a vegetarian?" We were sitting at a table now eating. As he scarfed down his tuna sub I replied to him.
"Yes. I have been since I could choose."
"Cool, then you and Frank should get along just fine."
"Yeah, I know."
"Is there anything else you want before we go?"
I really wanted some tattoos and piercings, but he might say no.
"Are there any rules on tattoos and piercings?"
"Yes."
"What are they?"
"First off, they don't belong anywhere a bikini does."
"Okay."
"20 tattoos is the highest amount, and 15 piercings."
"Cool. I want, like, 18 tattoos and 12 piercings."
"What are they?"
"An evil laughing pumpkin on my left shoulder , all the major Nightmare Before Christmas characters, that's like five, on my right arm, a star on my right forearm, glow-in-the-dark flames on my lower back, 'Demolition Lovers' on my right inner ankle, ,and 'Search and Destroy' with a gun on my hip. As for piercings, 6 in each ear, my lip, and my right eyebrow."
"Okay, and here." He handed me a new phone.
"Thanks."
"You're welcome. So come on, let's go get those done so we can go home. And if you only wear black, then why are you wearing pink?"
"The orphanage wouldn't let me wear only black."
"Well, Daddy will." He hugged me as we walked to the tattoo parlor.
