Mark pulled up in front of the café. "I forgot I'm going with Dana to get a tattoo today. I'll call you when she's done and you can come pick me up." Tyger said. "Okay. I love you." Mark said reaching over to kiss her. Tyger smiled. "I love you too." "What are you going to do today?" she asked. "Oh I got a business proposition I'm looking into. I'll tell you about it if everything goes as planned." He said. "Well I wish you luck then." She said. She kissed him one more time and hopped out of the truck. "Bye." She said waving at him. "Bye honey." He said.
The day had been slow so Tyger called Dana at 1:00PM. "Hey Dana, you ready to go to get your tat?" Tyger asked. "Yes…I can't wait." Dana said. "Can you pick me up? I left my jeep at Marks." Tyger said. "Yea, no problem. I'll be there in about 15 minutes." Dana said. "Okay." Tyger said. "I'll see you in a few." Dana said.
"Kevin I'm leaving now." Dana said hanging up her cell. Kevin climbed out of the ring where he was working with some students. "Okay. I'll see ya later sweet thing." He said kissing her. Dana wrapped her arms around his waist and returned his kiss. "You're a fast learner sweetheart." He whispered against her lips. Dana giggled. "I had a good teacher." She said. "Where ya going?" he asked. "Oh it's a surprise. I'll tell you later." She said. "Okay. Call me later." He said "I will. Bye." She said. "Bye babe." Kevin said. Scott walked up. "If you can handle things here I'm going to see Tyger." Scott said. "Sure go ahead." Kevin said. "Okay I'll be back in a while." Scott said.
Tyger got in Dana's car. "Hi." Tyger said. "Hey. How's your day going?" Dana said. "Okay, it's been kind of slow today." Tyger said. "So did you just come over early for breakfast or did you spend the night?" Tyger asked. Dana blushed. "Ahh so you and Kevin are doing the deed now?" Tyger said laughing. "Yea and it's great." Dana said smiling. "You go girl. Kevin is a great guy." Tyger said. "He told me he loves me." Dana said. "That's great Dana. I'm glad things are working out for you." Tyger said. "So what tat are you going to get." Tyger said. Dana handed her a picture of a small dragon. "That's cool. Where are you going to get it at?" Tyger said "On my upper arm." Dana said. They pulled up in front of Jade's. They got out and went in. "Hey Tyger, Dana. What can I do for you two?" she asked. "I want to get this put on my arm." Dana said. "Okay come on back." Jade said. They went in the back and sat down. "So where's that cute little boy of yours?" Dana asked. "He's taking a nap. He was pretty tired out from running around with Scott in the ring this morning." Jade said. Great thought Tyger I get to listen to this shit. Jade started working on the tat. "Tyger your dad is a very sweet guy." Jade said. Tyger wanted to scream but she forced her self to be polite. "Yea he is." She said. Jade sensed something was wrong with Tyger but she couldn't read anything in her face. She spent the rest of the time chatting with Dana about her writing. "Okay all done." Jade said. She gave Dana some ointment and told her how to care for it. Tyger went out front to wait. Dana followed her out shortly. "Bye. I'll see you later." Jade said to them. "Okay and thanks I love it." Dana said. They went and got in the car. "Dana it looks great." Tyger said. "Thanks I really like it." Dana said. "Listen could you drop me off at the park. I'll call Mark to pick me up there." Tyger said. "Sure you okay?" Dana asked. "Yea I just want to get some fresh air maybe go for a walk." Tyger said. Dana pulled up at the park's entrance. "Thanks for going with me Tyger." She said. "No problem. I'll see ya." She said getting out of the car. Tiger walked into the park she just needed to be alone for a while.
Scott came in the gym and headed over to Kevin. "Did you talk to Tyger?" he asked. "No they said she took off early today." He said. I'll catch up to her tonight." He said. "You got plans with Jade tonight." Kevin asked. "Yes as a matter of fact were taking Danny to the movies this afternoon." Scott said. Kevin grinned. "I never took you for the domestic type." Kevin said. "Well you just might be surprised buddy." Scott said laughing.
Tyger sat by the small stream in the park staring into it. "Hey little girl. I was worried about you." Mark said. Tyger looked up to see Mark standing there. He sat down beside her. "How did you know where I was at?" she asked. "I went by the store at 6:00PM when I hadn't heard from you. You weren't there so I called Dana. She told me she dropped you off here." He said. "I didn't know it was that late." She said. "Want to tell me what's wrong?" he asked. "Nothing." She said. Mark lifted her chin. "Look at me. We love each other right?" he asked. "Yes." She said. "When two people are in love they should be honest with each other and trust one another, no secrets right?" he said. "Yes." She said. "Then tell me." He said. "Your going to think I'm stupid." She said. "No I won't." Mark said. "When I see Scott with Danny it makes me mad." She said. "Why?" he asked. "Because I see what I missed by not having him there when I was a kid. That should have been me having my dad there to play with me to sit on his lap. It's not fair and it pisses me off." She said. "Go ahead tell me what a mean selfish bitch I am." She said. Mark pulled her onto his lap. "You're not a mean selfish bitch. What your feeling is perfectly normal. You have aright to be angry Tyger. It's not yours or Scott's fault. But the anger is natural. You need to talk to Scott and tell him how you feel." Mark said. "I can't. He won't understand," Tyger said. "Well think about it okay." Mark said. Tyger lay against him. "Come on I'll take you to get some clothes then we'll go home. I'll order Pizza." He said. "Now how about a smile for the man who loves you." Mark said. Tyger couldn't help but smile at that. "That my girl." Mark said kissing her. They got up and walked back to the truck.
"You two don't mind us. I'm just here to pick up some clothes." Tyger said with amusement. Kevin and Dana were kissing on the couch when they walked in. Dana jumped up blushing. Kevin just laughed. "I take it he liked your tat?" Tyger said. "I love it." Kevin said winking at Dana. "Hey Mark." Kevin said. "Hey." Mark said. "Where's Daddy?" Tyger asked. "He's out with Jade and Danny." Kevin said. Oh that's just great Tyger thought. Tyger went to her room to pack up some clothes. "Tell Scott to come by my place when he gets the chance. I had one of Tyger's old teachers go back and get copies made of all her school pictures made and there's some baby pictures I got from her aunts house. I thought he might want them." Mark said. "That's great Mark that will mean a lot to Scott." Kevin said. "I bet she was a cute little kid." Kevin said. "Yea." She was Mark said grinning. Tyger came in with her back pack. "I'll see ya later guys." She said. "Tyger your dad was looking for you today but you had already left work." Kevin said. "Maybe I can catch up with him tomorrow. I have inventory tomorrow night. I'll be working all night so I won't be going to work till about 6:00PM." Tyger said. "Okay I'll tell him." Kevin said. "I'll call ya Dana." She said. Tyger gave Kevin a kiss. "Bye." She said. "Bye short stuff." Kevin said. "See ya Mark." Kevin said. Kevin looked at Dana. "Is Tyger okay?" he asked. "She seemed kind of preoccupied today." Dana said. "Yea to me too." Kevin said. Kevin hoped everything was all right.
Scott carried Danny up to his room he had fallen asleep on the way home from the movie. He laid him in his bed and pulled his shoes off and covered him up. Jade watched him from the door. Scott was too good to be true. He was so sweet to Danny. Scott followed her to the small living room. "I'll get us some coffee." She said. Scott followed her to the kitchen and watched her make the coffee. "You're so good with Danny. You must have been a great father to Tyger growing up." Jade said. Scott sighed. "I didn't even know about Tyger till a few months ago." Scott said. He told Jade about Tyger and how Mark had tracked him down and found him. "Poor Tyger. She's had it rough hasn't she?" Jade said. "Yea, but she's tough like her old man." Scott said. "That explains that look this morning when you had Danny on your lap." Jade said. "What look?" Scott said. "She looked so wistful and sad. I didn't know what was wrong." Jade said. Scott realized he really needed to talk to Tyger. He didn't want her upset. They sat down at the table and had there coffee. "Does Danny see his dad any?" Scott asked. "No, his father took off when I told him I was pregnant. I was young just 18 and stupid. Poor judgment in men." She said sadly. Scott took her hand. "I'm sorry. It must have been rough." He said. "Yea, but Danny's worth it I wouldn't trade him for anything." She said. Scott got up and pulled her out of the chair. He pulled her into his arms and lowered his mouth to hers. Jade wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him closer. Scott sucked on her lower lip. Jade moaned. It had been so long since she had felt passion and never anything like this. Scott nipped her bottom lip and slid his tongue in her mouth plundering every inch. Slowly he pulled back planting small kissed on her jaw. "I'm sorry if I'm out of line but I wanted to do that since the first time I seen you." He said. "Don't apologize It was wonderful." Jade said still breathless from the kiss. "I really have to go." He said kissing her on her cheek. "Ill see you tomorrow definitely." He said smiling. She smiled up at him. "That almost sounded like a order." She said teasing him. "It was. I always get what I want Jade and I want you." He said. He kissed her lightly one more time. "Bye Beautiful." He said. "Bye Scott." Jade said. She sat back down. What a man she thought.
Tyger and Mark sat on the floor in front of the TV eating Pizza. "So what happened with your business today." She asked. "It went well. You are now looking at the owner of a Harley Davidson Franchise." He said. "Mark that's great." She said giving him a kiss. "Does that mean no more Bounty hunting for you?" she asked. "Yep I captured your heart. I don't need to hunt no more." He said grinning. "Oh Mark your so sweet." She said climbing onto his lap. Mark kissed her gently. "Are you ready for your treat?' Mark whispered in her ear. "Yeah." She said remembering his promise this morning. "Well get that cute ass of yours upstairs and get them clothes off. I'll be up in a minute." He said. Mark kissed her lips and ran his hand over her breast. "Go on girl, ya better be naked in that bed when I get there." He said grinning. Tyger jumped up and practically ran upstairs. Mark got up and threw there trash away. You're a lucky man Mark he said to himself as he headed upstairs.
Scott came in and Kevin was on the couch watching TV. "Hey how was your date?" Kevin asked. "Great." Scott said smiling. "Mark said to drop by his place tomorrow. He's got some baby pictures of Tyger he thought you might want." Kevin said. "That would be great. I don't have any pictures of Tyger when she was little." Scott said. "I told Tyger you were looking for her today. She said she's not going in to work till 6:00PM tomorrow she's got inventory. She said to try to catch up with her tomorrow." Kevin said. "I guess she's at Mark's." Scott said. "Good guess." Kevin said. "I'm heading off to bed. I'll see ya in the morning." Kevin said. "Okay, night," Scott said. He thought about calling Tyger but it was late. I'll catch up to her tomorrow he thought and headed off to bed.
