Scott heard the phone ringing. He grabbed it and picked it up. "Hello." He said. "Is Tyger there?" a voice said. "No she's not can I take a message?" Scott asked. "Yes this is Jade's Tattoos. She was in here the other day and she left her driver's license in here. I was just calling to let her know." The voice said. "She's not going to be back till later tonight. I'm going to be out today, I'm her dad, can I pick it up for her?" he asked. "Yes I guess that will be fine. Just ask for Jade." "Okay. Thanks." Scott said. He hung up. It wasn't a good idea to be driving around without your license. He picked up his keys and headed out the door.
Tyger decided it was the time in her life for a real drink. She needed something to calm her nerves. She went to the bar and found a bottle of JD. Okay she knew this is what Mark drank sometimes. That should work. She grabbed a bottle of coke. She filled the bottom of the glass with JD. That don't look like enough she thought so she poured more in. Then she poured some coke on top of it. She looked at it and then threw her head back and downed it. Tyger felt like she was choking. She started coughing and sputtering. She finally got it under control feeling the warmth spreading through her. That wasn't so bad she thought. She fixed her another one. She sipped this one instead. But the first drink still made her cough though not as bad. "What in the hell are you doing?" Mark asked. She turned around still coughing a little. "I'm having a drink." She said. Mark came over and took the almost empty glass away from her. "How many did you have?" he asked. "That was my second." She said. "That's enough. Your not old enough to drink kid." He said. "I'm 20 that's close enough." She said. "Close don't count. Besides your dad would have a fit. No more drinking." He said firmly. "Party pooper." She said. "I'll show you a party pooper if I catch you in the liquor anymore." He said. "Oh okay." She said smiling at him. "You think that smile can get you out of trouble do you?" he asked. "Well can it?" she asked. "I refuse to answer that." He said. "I'll go check on dinner." She said and grinned up at him. Yep Mark ya dumb ass she's got you wrapped around her finger.
Scott pulled up in front of the tattoo Parlor. He got out of his truck and looked around. It looked like a nice place. At least Tyger had chosen a nice one and not some seedy looking joint. He went in the front door but didn't see anybody around. He walked around looking at the different pictures on the wall. All of a sudden a small kid came running from behind the curtains and ran right into Scott's legs. Scott bent down and helped him up. He had dark hair and eyes and was cute as a button. He grinned at Scott. "My mommy is after me." He whispered. "Daniel Alexander Marshall get back here!" a voice yelled. "All 3 names looks like you're in big trouble." Scott said. Daniel nodded. "What did you do?" Scott asked. "I just decided to give my stuffed animals a bath is all." He said. The curtain opened and a woman stepped out with her hands on her hips. Scott caught his breath she was beautiful. She had long black hair and brown eyes. She had on jeans and a t-shirt that showed her wonderful curves. Jade stopped short when she saw the man bent down talking to Danny. He was gorgeous. He had dark eyes almost black and long black hair laying in waves down his back. Tight black jeans and a tight black t-shirt that showed off his huge arms and biceps. She finally found her voice. "Danny get your butt up to your room now." She said. Danny scuffed his feet and looked at Scott with his big brown eyes. "Sorry little man. Better do what your mom says." Scott said. Danny nodded and walked toward the curtain. "I'll be up to talk to you in a minute Danny." she said. "I take it your Jade?" Scott said standing up. "Yes what can I do for you?" she asked. "I'm Tyger's dad. I came to get her license." Scott said. Jade just stared this was Tyger's dad. He was way to sexy to be someone's dad. Breathe Jade she told herself. "Yes of course. I'm sorry it's been a little crazy around here." She said. "I could see that." He said grinning at her. She smiled back. "Danny's a good kid, but he has his days. He decided to fill the bathtub with water and see if all his stuffed animals could swim." She said "Yea he told me he was giving them a bath." Scott said grinning. "A bath huh. I suppose I'll look back on this and laugh someday." She said. Scott leaned on the counter. "Ya know what instead of laughing about it someday laugh about it today. Go give him a hug and a kiss instead of yelling at him or whatever. You're lucky you get to watch him grow up." Scott said. Jade seen the sadness in his dark eyes. Jade handed him Tyger's license. "I think your right Mr…" "My name is Scott." He said. "Scott. I think I will go give him a hug." She said. "Good beautiful. Besides your to pretty to have a frown on your face." He said. She blushed. He just grinned that sexy grin of his. "I'll be seeing you." He said. She managed to get out a goodbye before he left. Jade stood there trying to get her heartbeat to go back to normal. What a man she thought. But I'll probably never see him again. She turned and went upstairs to hug her son.
Tyger and mark sat down to dinner. "The lasagna is great Tyger." Mark said. "I'm glad you like it." She said. "You aint feeling woozy from that JD are you?" he asked. "No silly, I'm fine." She said. Tyger told him about how Dana and Kevin seemed to be hitting it off. "Well that's great, now we just need to get your dad hooked up." Mark said. Tyger frowned she didn't know about all that. "You don't seem to like that idea much." Mark said. Tyger didn't if he got a girlfriend he would probably forget all about her. "Hey ya know you will always be number one with your dad." Mark said. "How do you always know what I'm thinking?" she asked. "It's magic." He said grinning. They finished up dinner and her and Mark did the dishes. Lets' go watch some movie's Mark said. "Okay." Tyger said.
Kevin and Dana were locked together on the couch. He held her kissing her gently. Kevin slid his hand up her skirt and pushed the elastic of her panties aside. He gently ran his finger through her wet curls. Kevin groaned. "God baby you feel so good." He said. "Kevin, we can't." She said. He lifted his head and looked at her. "If you want to wait I understand. But I love you girl, that aint going to change." He said. Dana stood up and took his hand and led him to the bedroom. "Are you sure Dana?" he asked. "I'm sure she said and closed the door.
Scott came in. The apartment was dark. He looked in Tyger's room. She wasn't home yet. Figures he thought. Kevin sure turned in early. He went and got bottled water. He went to the caller ID and looked for the number he wanted. He dialed the number. "Hello." Jade answered. "Hey it's me Scott, from this afternoon." He said. "Hey Scott." She said. "I was wondering if you wanted to come over to my place in the morning and have breakfast." Scott said. Jade was stunned and didn't really know what to say. "You aint married are you?" he asked. She started laughing. "No, I'm definitely not married." She said. "Listen I'm not a nut case or anything. Well not a real bad one anyway." He said. "I would just like to get to know you better." He said. "Well Scott it sounds nice, but I doubt I can get a babysitter on such short notice." She said. "I meant for you to bring the little guy too." Scott said. Okay so now she was shocked. That's why she didn't date. Men usually didn't want someone else's kid around. "Really you wouldn't mind." She said. "Hell no I don't mind. He seems like a nice kid." Scott said. "Okay then give me directions to your place." She said. Scott gave her direction and told her to be here about 8:00AM. "Okay. Goodnight." She said. "Goodnight beautiful." He said. Scott hung up the phone smiling.
