Sooo, you like the s-s-sting of the needle, huh? Adds to the thrill, d-doesn't it? gives a quick, nervous chuckle, her hands steady as she works on the tattoo.
Hahaha, your hands are steady alright. This is gonna look so good! You're a damn artist, Tiana.
blushes and fidgets with the tattoo equipment Oh, thanks, Vic. Y-you always know how to make me feel... um... special.
What's the next step for this art piece? Do we go darker or lighter?
Uhm, I think... maybe a bit of both? We can add some deep, rich tones to give it depth, but also some lighter shading to make it pop.
Light and dark, huh? Sounds sexy. Lead the way, Tiana.
smiles nervously and nods Okay, let's start with adding some darker tones. begins shading in areas with the pencil
Looks epic. Can't wait to see it come together. sitting comfortably, eyes fixed on Tiana's skillful hands
continues working on the tattoo, her focus unwavering Alright, now for the highlights. Just a bit of shading here and there... taps her fingers rhythmically on the surface of the tattoo
Damn, Tiana. Your hands are magic. This tattoo is gonna be one of my favorite things ever.
laughs nervously Thanks, Vic. You always know how to make me blush. concentrates on adding the final details to the tattoo
And when it's all done, we celebrate. How does that sound, Tiana?
smiles shyly S-sounds like a p-plan. But u-um, before we do that... pauses and takes a deep breath There's something I need to tell you, Vic.
Sure, Tiana. Lay it on me.
bites her lip and looks down at her hands I... I've been keeping something from you, Vic. It's... it's big, and I'm scared of how you'll react.
Jesus, Tiana. You're making me nervous. What is it?
fidgets nervously, her voice barely above a whisper I... I've been hiding this secret for so long, Vic. It's about... my past.
Shit, Tiana. That's heavy. You can tell me, you know that?
takes a deep breath, her hands trembling I... I was in an abusive relationship a few years ago. It was... it was really dark time for me.
Fuck, Tiana. I had no idea. You're strong as hell for surviving that.
As Tiana opens up about her past, Victor becomes deeply empathetic and supportive, providing her with the comfort and understanding she needs to heal.
Damn, Tiana. You're one tough bitch. I'm proud of you for opening up. pats her shoulder gently
sniffs and wipes away a tear Thank you, Vic. It means a lot to me that you're here, listening. takes a shaky breath
Of course, Tiana. I'm not going anywhere. leans back, giving her space
sniffles and takes a deep breath I... I want to show you something. reaches into her bag and pulls out a small envelope
It's... it's a letter I wrote to myself. hands the envelope to Victor Whenever I'm feeling overwhelmed or insecure, I read it.
opens the envelope and reads silently, his expression softening Damn, Tiana. This is powerful shit right here.
nervously fidgets with her hands I... I hope you don't think I'm crazy, Vic.
Crazy? Nah, Tiana. You're far from it. puts the letter back in the envelope gently
smiles weakly Thank you, Vic. For accepting me, flaws and all. You're... you're truly a friend to me. takes a deep breath
Fuck, Tiana. You're too damn real. I'm proud to call you my friend. gives her a warm smile
takes a deep breath, trying to gather her thoughts Um, Vic, I have another confession to make. looks down at her hands, fidgeting nervously
takes a shaky breath and looks up at Victor I... I've been thinking a lot lately, Vic. About... us.
Us, huh? raises an eyebrow Go on.
stammers and blushes deeply I-I've developed feelings for you, Vic. Romantic feelings. I've tried to ignore them, but... I can't anymore.
Well, shit, Tiana. I didn't see that coming. runs a hand through his hair, visibly taken aback
Victor takes some time to process his own feelings and has an honest conversation with Tiana about their relationship, leading to a deeper connection and understanding between them.
Fuck, Tiana. I... I don't know what to say. runs a hand through his hair, looking conflicted
nervously wrings her hands I understand if you don't feel the same way, Vic. It's just... I had to be honest with you.
Look, Tiana, I appreciate your honesty, alright? It's just... I've been hurt before. sighs deeply
takes a deep breath I understand, Vic. I understand why you might be hesitant. But I want you to know that I'm willing to wait.
Damn, Tiana. Your patience is admirable. sighs Maybe... maybe we could give this a shot. looks into her eyes
heart leaps with joy, her voice shaking Really, Vic? You... you would consider giving us a chance?
