Deal with Eden's Shit (Figuratively)

After you finish inside Sabrina, your mom finish up her tattoo and Eden gets to work on her own while Sabrina catches her breath. She places hers on her shoulder, using a mirror to be able to get the right viewing angle.

The rest of the work goes smoothly and soon enough all four women are permanently marked as yours. It’s a wonderful feeling, and you decide that it's time to celebrate.

“Who wants lunch?” You ask, not even having had breakfast today.

Eden answers,“I can eat. Do you want me to clean everything up before we leave? I’ll probably get fired if I leave without even doing that.”

“You don't need a job anymore, honestly. Just lock up and leave it for whoever else is coming in. If we need you to use this place again, I can just claim it. I think we’re literally about to get out of town though.”

Eden sighs, “Oh… could we stop by my apartment before we go? There are some things that I'd like to keep, since… well I didn't realize I was yours and I didn't think I'd be going anywhere.”

You consider it for a few seconds before deciding, “What can it hurt? You don't have any pets or anything, right?”

“Nope. Just some personal things. Drawing tablet that I spend a lot of time to get, some clothes that are important to me, that sort of thing.”

“I guess everything you used to own is mine now.” You say.

“Yeah, well, if you’d like that to be the case, I can't really argue with you.” Eden says, getting up and collecting a few of her things that she took to work.

“Hmmm… I’ll have to remember that. For now, everyone get back in the RV and don't forget anything.”

Mom, Ashley and Sabrina all move ahead of you, getting into the RV as Eden follows you, eventually taking a seat in the passenger side of the front, right next to you.

“I’m pulling up directions.” Eden says, talking while looking down on her phone.

You start to pull the RV into drive and almost immediately lurch forward as you don't exactly know what you're doing.

Eden, immediately jumps and says, “Woah! Hey, do you not even know how to drive one of these things?”

“No. Do you?”

“I’ve been in my fair share of big rigs over the years, so I know a thing or two.” Eden says, a little heat in her voice.

She then proceeds to give you a crash course on how to operate such a large vehicle, especially as you got closer to her apartment building, which is thankfully extremely close. Her “yell at you every time you do something wrong” approach to helping you get better got pretty old pretty fast, but you can't spare the mental energy to tell her to be nicer, at least not yet. And by the time you get to her apartment, she’s basically done anyway.

“She’s definitely a forceful woman when she wants to be.” Your mother comments.

“Yeah, well, maybe it helps in this case. Although maybe I should just make her drive instead…”

“That would mean we could probably watch this show at a decent volume.” Sabrina says. You didn't even notice before, but she and Ashley had turned something on on their phone. You realize that you can get them to do anything back there while you drive, but you aren't going to start now. Eden should be back soon enough.

You get on your phone and look for somewhere you can realistically take the RV that would be in the direction of somewhere you’d like to go. Gas wasn't going to be a problem for the road trip, as you’re more than prepared to go into gas stations with your stamp and then have them give you everything you need, and there wasn't necessarily any place in particular that you have dreamed of going for that long. You imagine though, that you’re going to find something to hold your attention eventually if you get on the road.

A thought comes to your mind of claiming something like Disneyland and making it into your own sex-fueled kingdom, but that seems like it would be too much of a project to be fun. At least at this point.

Then Eden knocks on the door, and your Mom gets it, helping her and her 2 duffle bags, a backpack and purse inside.

“Jesus, did you bring your whole room?” You ask.

“No, but I had to bring a lot of clothes, since I know you like my style, and I do too. Plus I can't let my sketchbooks get tossed out when the landlord eventually sells the rest of my shit, plus a little extra.” Eden argues. “We can make it more compact and it’ll fit in one of the many empty ass cupboards or whatever.”

She was giving you a lot of sass for someone who you owned, but you kind of deserved it for making her rush to do all this stuff. At least Sabrina can go and pick up more stuff at her parent’s house. And Dad isn't going to burn everything Mom and Ashley own (plus they had more time to grab everything.)

“Well, just drop it all in one of those empty ass cupboards and come take a seat. You're driving instead of me.”

Eden rolls her eyes a little, but with a smirk on her lips as she goes and does as she was told. At the same time, you get up and move in between Ashley and Sabrina (making them move over on the bench they’re sitting on,) so you can take a peek at what they're watching as Eden starts moving.

Eden asks,
