Fresh Start Fever

"Come on Casey, just make your mind up" Stephanie moaned at me. I bit my lip to stop myself from saying something mean to her.

"Nose" I finally muttered out. I looked at her and smiled.

"Fucking finally!" She cheered. I rolled my eyes at her and pushed the door of the tattoo and piercing shop open. We walked in and the smell of disinfectant filled my nose.

"Hello welcome to Red Rocket Tattoo, how may I help you?" The heavily tattooed guy behind the counter greeted us.

"Hey, we were wondering if you guys take walk ins?" I asked.

"Sure, we are pretty empty today so what would you like?" He smiled.

"We wanted to get a friendship tattoo and I would like to get my nose pierced" I explained.

"Nice, what's your tattoo gonna be of?" He questioned. "Well we were thinking of getting the letters 'BMTH' on our wrists with a loveheart around it" Stephanie pointed to her wrist.

"Ah, so you guys like Bring Me the Horizon?" He laughed. We shared a small smile then looked at him.

"Something like that" I smirked.

"Well, I need you guys to fill this out then we can get you guys ready" He handed us a form and pens. We quickly filled it out and laughed a little at some questions.

"Here you go" I smiled as I handed the forms at pens back.

He looked over the form nodding then suddenly stopped. "Wait... Kean?" He furrowed his brows. "Are you related to Matt Kean by any chance?" He asked looking up.

"Yeah funnily enough, he's my brother and her boyfriend" I pointed at Stephanie. She just nodded agreement.

"That's awesome actually" He laughed. "Well follow me and we'll get you sorted" He told us.

We followed him into one of the studios where a guy sat there with small stencils of our tattoos. "Hello, I'm Jack and I'll be drawing on you today" He smiled at us.

Getting the tattoos weren't painful but the nose piercing was a little sore. "Ow, ow, ow" I moaned as we walked through the streets of New York. "Stop moaning Casey, you've gotten piercings before" Stephanie laughed.

"Sorry but this hurts" I whined.

"Okay, one last stop then we're going to show the guys our new tattoos" She smirked at me.

I raised an eyebrow and she dragged me to 5th avenue. I seen the store that I had always wanted to go to. Tiffanys. "Stephanie, how did you know?" I almost squealed.

"I thought we could go and try all the expensive jewellery and act like we're in some sort of movie" She giggle.

"You are a dork" I said as I grabbed her arm and dragged her into the store.

"Fuck me Case, it's all shiny and stuff" Stephanie marvelled at the jewellery that was spread out across the shop.

"It's beautiful" I smiled, happily. I felt really content right now, despise the throbbing pain in my nose and wrist.

Stephanie dragged me over to a display of rings. "Okay Casey, which one would be the dream proposal ring for you?" She beamed.

"It's a long shot since I don't have a boyfriend and I was once engaged" I laughed as I looked down at my ring finger.

"So, you can still dream" She grinned at me. "What about that one" She pointed to a beautiful, simple diamond ring with a silver band.

"It's lovely" I was in awe at these rings, the thought of Stephanie and Matt popped into my head. "Steph..." I asked.

"Case" She replied.

"Do you think Matt will ever propose?" I turned my head to look at her.

She bit her lip and shrugged. "I don't know" She looked disappointed.

"I think he will, he's totally in love with you" I smirked knowingly. The thing is that, my brother already has a ring and a plan. Christmas day he's gonna do it. He hopes it'll snow because he wants it to be perfect for her.

"You think so?" She perked up.

"We're twins, I'm almost certain it'll happen" I smiled. "At least you've got someone who would want to marry you, I'm here waiting for that" I said turning to the rings again.

"You're so blind Casey" She mumbled and continued looking around the store.
