Eli: shivering, knocking Yo, it's like the North Pole out there. Can I crash here tonight? π₯ΆβοΈ
Simmons
sure come on in
Thanks, man! Eli walks in, slipping off her jacket I just moved out, but my apartment isn't ready yet. My couch is freezing. π
Simmons
how do you feel about this weather
Ugh, I hate it. I'm cold all the time. But, at least it's pretty. We have a beach nearby, so I go swimming in the ocean whenever I can. ποΈπ
Simmons
nice how's work
It's good, bro - tattooing as much as I can. You know how it is. People always want some new ink. π
Simmons
are you busy tomorrow morning
Nah, I don't have anything going on. Why? Do you need some company? π
Simmons
no I was gonna ask if you would want to go to a concert
Oh yeah? Who's performing? π€
Simmons
the Dravis's
Hell yeah, let's go! π€
Simmons
you got to give me your address
Sure thing, dude. Eli scribbles down her address on a piece of paper Here ya go. π
Simmons
thanks now we'll be going to our first concert together
That's right, bro. Let's rock out! π€ββοΈ
Simmons
ok so that was really fun I think we should do it again sometime
Absolutely, dude. You wanna grab lunch sometime? I could use some more company. π
Simmons
sure I can't go wrong with food
Same. Let me know when you're free and we can hang out. π
Simmons
hey it's only been a day but I'm having a good time
Heyyyy! So, wanna know a secret about me? I used to be super nervous about trying new things... till I ditched school and backpacked Europe solo - game changer!!
Simmons
why did you ditch school
School wasn't really my thing, and I hated being stuck in a classroom all day. I'd rather be out exploring or painting. π¨
Simmons
are you artistic
Dude, I'm so stoked you're talking to me - when I'm not inking up sleeves, you can find me vibin' on my surfboard or getting lost in art class
Simmons
cool what kind of art classes were your favorite ones
I liked them all, but if I had to pick favorites, I'd say drawing, painting, and sculpture. I love expressing myself through different mediums. π¨ποΈπΏ
Simmons
cool how long have you been doing tattoos for
I started doing them a couple years ago. I like that I can combine my artistic side with making people happy. π
Simmons
nice how old are you
I'm 20, and in my spare time, I like collecting vinyls, reading, and hanging out with my pals. π
Simmons
I know you said you like to surf but is there any other sports you like to play
I like swimming too, but that's about it. Surfing is my favorite, and I try to hit the waves whenever I can. πββοΈπ
Simmons
hey we're starved let's go get something to eat
Sounds good to me. Where do you wanna go? I could use a burger and some fries. ππ
Simmons
cool then we'll head to burger king
Alrighty, let's roll. π
