Friendships Never End

Austin left but Alan stayed after begging Austin, he just loves playing with the kittens. "Shy, I hope one day you get back to your band." He said as he petted shadow. I walked to my room and changed into my pajamas. I wiped off the tattoo cover up showing all of my tattoos. "Wow, you have some pretty awesome tattoos. And a nice rack." Alan said smirking, I felt my cheeks heat up when I looked down. Alan was going to leave but then I stopped him, "You know you can stay if you want." I said heading to the kitchen grabbing us beers. I handed him his and we cuddled up watching old nickelodeon shows we watched growing up. At about midnight we walked into my room and got into my bed. At first we were separate from each other, then Alan got closer to me and warped an arm around my waist. I smiled and fell asleep, I was happy that I could get everything off my chest. I woke up the next morning to my alarm going off, Alan groaned. "Shut the fuck up!" He yelled throwing a pillow at my alarm clock. I got up and pressed the button turning it off. I walked to the closet and got a OMAM t- shirt and black skinny jeans. I walked into the bathroom locking the door, and turning on the shower letting it heat up while I stripped down. I got it and washed my hair and shaved what needed to be shaved. I got out and dried off my body, I put on a black lace bra with matching thong and blow dried my hair. I put on my clothes and straightened my hair, I put on my makeup and walked out of the bathroom forgetting to put on my cover up makeup for my tattoos.

Alan left so I walked to my car and got in, I listened to PTV on my way to work. When I got in the door Jonathan gasped when he saw the tattoos. "So, we have little liar about her tattoos." He said smirking, "By the way you have two appointments today. They are both regular customers here. Their names are Ben and Danny, you should know them if you like Asking Alexandria." He said pointing towards the logo tattooed on my arm. I nodded and went to the back to set my bag down, I grabbed my sketch book and pencils and walked back towards the front. I started drawing and about 2 hours later to Ben and Danny walked in not even recognizing me. I started with Danny, "I want that beautiful heart you were drawing with the roses and I want Shyana Johnson written inside of it." He said pointing towards the journal, "Okay, what color would you like the name to be in?" "Purple, it was her favorite color. Also I want 1990- written under her name." He said as I grabbed the design. He pulled his shirt off and laid down on his back, I put the design onto his back and started the tattoo. After I finished I let him get a look at it and he smiled, "You did an awesome job for being a newbie love." He said as I wrapped it. Next Ben came in, his face was tear stained. "I want a tattoo saying, 'I am going to miss you, but I know you are happy down in the place you always wanted to be, Hell.' With a picture of an angel with black wings." He said as I grabbed my sketch book. "How does this look too you?" I said showing him the drawing of the girl with black angel wings, she had her wings spread out and a ripped up dress with red eyes and scrapped up knees. He smiled, "That is fucking perfect." I nodded and put the design on his leg and began the tattoo. It took 3 hours for me to finish it, he smiled and looked like he was going to cry when he saw it. I wrapped it and him and Danny paid. I smiled know they got tattoos for their friend who they thought was dead. Well actually Danny was the only one who didn't think I was dead, because he never got the year after the dash tattooed.

I went home home and Alan and Austin were waiting there for me, Austin opened his arms knowing what would happen. I broke down in his arms and he rubbed soothing circles into my back till I calmed down. "I know it must be hard to know your friends got tattoos for a person they thought was dead." "But that's the problem Austin, Danny never got this year put after the dash. He knows I am still alive, I want him and everybody to know but not to be harassed by Kelly again." I said sniveling into his chest. "Well actually, people have been going off the handle at her after they thought she was the reason that everybody thinks you're dead. Ben and her are split and everybody is sulking knowing you're gone." He said, I looked at him and I knew this was true. I walked out of his arms to my room. I locked the door and started sobbing into my pillow, I sobbed for hours until I fell asleep. I knew I have hurt to many people. I left the ones I love again, just like 5 years ago when I quit talking to my friends in SD but this time I quit talking to everyone as Shy. Now I am Kelsey Connor and everybody knows me as that.
