"Hey Rey, how was your weekend?" Josh asked as he walked into Rey's office.
Rey looked up at Josh. He had a smile and a blush on his face. Josh plopped down in one of the chairs. "So?"
"I let him touch me." Rey said.
"OK." Josh said. He was confused. Dave touched him all the time.
"In that special place." Rey answered and Josh's eyes widen.
"Oh." Josh said in understanding. "Wow Rey, you're really turning into a whore."
"Shut up." Rey said and threw a pen at Josh. "It's not like I said we had sex."
"Soon you will." Josh teased and Rey scoffed.
"Yeah right."
"You will and you'll see how fun it can be."
Rey shook his head. "The thought scares the hell out of me."
"You just have to…disconnect your mind from all of the past and focus on Dave." Rey gave Josh a look. "Easier said than done?"
"Yes."
"You will learn that fucking is fun." Josh said and Rey laughed.
"Anyway, back to business." Rey said. "I found a match for one of Shawn's friends."
"Good because they call every week wondering, which friend?" Josh asked.
"Mark Calaway." Rey said and gave Josh his file. Josh opened it and read it.
Mark Calaway, 46, born and raised in Houston but splits up his time between San Antonio and Houston. Owner of Deadman Inc. which is the large umbrella that spans over all of his smaller LLCs. He's looking for someone that has a set career and goals they would like to accomplish, someone that is smart but not a nerd and someone who is business orientated. Physically, he would like him to be smaller than him and sexy, maybe some tattoos.
Josh looked up. "Who did you find for him?"
"Shannon Moore." Rey said and passed the file.
"Shannon Moore…why does that sound so familiar?"
"Because he's tattooist to the stars and he's one of the host on that show called Ink Masters."
Shannon Moore, 32, from North Carolina but currently lives in Houston, TX. Owner of many tattoo shops in Texas. He started tattooing professionally at the age of sixteen and has never stopped. Stars from all over the world come to him for his tattoos, he can do any style but was put on the map for tattooing an actor with a new school tattoo that caught the eye of everyone. He would like to be with someone who has their head on straight, knows what they are going to do and does it and isn't afraid to take risk. The man that he's with doesn't need to have tattoos but needs to appreciate the art and hard work that goes into a tattoo. Prefers a man that is older than him.
"I think they're good together." Josh says and places the pictures side by side. "They look good together."
"I thought so too." Rey said. "Well, lets get to calling."
Mark was looking over the blueprints for the new office building that was going up in downtown Houston. He was starting construction soon and would need to finalize these soon. Mark was broken out of his thoughts when he saw his phone light up and it buzzing across his desk.
"Calaway." He said as he answered.
"Hey Mark, this is Rey."
"Oh so you finally found someone for me." Mark answered. He could hear the smile on Rey's face.
"Yes."
"I didn't think I was that picky." Mark said.
"Well you were but I found someone for you. His name is Shannon Moore."
"The tattoo artist?" Mark questioned.
"So you know him?" Rey asked.
"Yeah, I watch his show. It's pretty cool." Mark said. "And he's hot."
Rey chuckled. "Well he's in Houston, you're in Houston. I can give you his number and you can call him. Maybe you guys can meet."
"Yeah." Mark said. "Give me his number."
"Sweet!" The man said to Shannon as he looked at his Portrait tattoo on his arm. "You're the best Shannon."
"I know, right." Shannon said and laugh. The man paid Shannon and left the shop. Right after he left, the phone began to ring.
"Ink Inc." Shannon answered as he picked up the shop phone.
"Hello, may I speak to Shannon?"
"This is me."
"Hey Shannon, this is Josh with the match making service."
"Oh yeah Josh, I know who you are. What's up?"
"Well, we've found you a match. His name is Mark Calaway, businessman and a seven foot tattooed God." Josh said and Shannon laughed.
"Really?"
"Yes, really. He's perfect for you and he lives in Houston too." Josh said.
"In that case, give him my number. I want to meet him."
"Will do, expect a call from him soon."
"OK, thanks. Bye." Shannon said and hung up the phone.
Shannon jumped as he felt a buzz in his pocket. He reached down and took out his phone and answered it.
"Shannon."
"Hello Shannon, this is Mark."
"Wow, that was quick." Shannon said.
"What?"
"Nothing." Shannon says in a hurry. "So, what are you doing?"
"Nothing." Mark answers. "Where are you?"
"I'm at my shop in Houston." Shannon answers.
"Mind if I swing by?"
Shannon smiled. "Yeah, come by. I'll be here."
"Cool." Mark said. "I'm on my way."
A/N: So, I'm updating this story much earlier than I thought I would but I watched this show called Ink Master and I thought it would be a cool idea for these two and I didn't want to forget so I just wrote it.
Thanks 4 Reading
