Nose piercing

"What about a nose piercing?" Alex decides.

Becca walks over to the counter and picks out which stud she wants. She goes to the back and about 5 minutes later, Becca walks out with a small blue stud on the right side of her nose. It makes her look a little more slutty. Becca stands looking in a mirror. "Oh gosh it's so cute" She turns her head from side to side.

Alex admits to himself, it does look good. In fact, he thinks it looks really good. "Man babe, that looks great"

"And I get no thank you?" Val walks out of the back room

Becca runs over and hugs her "Thank you so much. I love it."

Val throws her hands up not hugging her. "Yeah, your welcome. Now let go." Becca lets Val go. "Now get outta here if you ain't getting stuff. You guys make the shop look bad just standing around." She then turns and walks behind the counter.

The friends leave tattoo parlor and start walking around. "I have to go to the bathroom" Becca announces.

"Yeah I kinda gotta go too." Carl also speaks up.

They walk to the bathrooms and Alex walks around the few surrounding shops, window shopping while he waits. After a while of waiting, he decides to go to the bathroom. When he walks in the men's room, no one is in there. All the stall doors are open and it's completely silent. Alex walks back over to the spot they were all standing when they split. No one is there. Just as Alex goes to walk away, Becca runs up from behind. "Hey, where you going?"

"I was waiting forever, so I was gonna try to find you guys. I searched the guys room and Carl wasn't in there." Alex says confused.

"He had to go to the bathroom on the other end. The boysroom was closed for cleaning when we went by." Becca explains.

Alex then notices Becca's hair isn't as neat as it was. It's like she took her ponytail down then quickly put it back up. She make up looks a less perfect as well. "Did something happen in the bathroom?" Alex questions.

"Oh, uh no, my make up and hair got a little messed up in the changing room earlier, maybe you would have noticed if your mind was thinking about me in lingerie." Becca teases.

Alex assumes that makes since. Taking off clothes would mess up your hair, but her make up too? But since he doesn't wear it, how would he know. And had he really not noticed? Just then from the other direction, Carl walks up. "Of course they'd be cleaning as soon as I gotta go. I just took the outside door to the other bathroom."

"Well I guess I should head home" Becca chimes in.

"Yeah it's been fun" Carl says.

Just then, Becca walks over to Alex. She leans in and gives Alex a long kiss. Nothing crazy, but a long kiss. Alex is super confused. This was PDA, something Becca hated. Alex immediately thought that maybe his power did work on her. Maybe he can use it on her now. While they're kissing, Alex opens his eyes and looks at Becca, her eyes still closed. "Becca doesn't mind making out in public." Alex keeps it small, he want's to make sure it works. After a second, he pushes on her lips with his tongue. She parts her lips taking in his tongue. Becca wraps her arms around the Alex's neck and her tongue meets his. They make out for a couple of minutes. At the end, Alex notices a weird taste in his mouth, but he doesn't know what it is.

Becca pulls away. "A friend is picking me up, gotta run" Becca runs out the door.

"Yeah I got a shift tonight, so I'm heading that way." Carl also leaves.

Alex is left by himself. Now that he's alone, he lets joy take him. He's so happy he can use the power on Becca. He doesn't know why it didn't work before, but it clearly worked now. He smiles his whole work home.
