5. Tattoo?

Eve and Sophie sat talking as well as catching up. Sophie told her all about school and then told her about how Ethan and her broke up for a couple months that took Eve completely by surprise since her brother never told her. But that would explain why when she called him sometimes he just seemed so depressed and short with her. It seemed every time she would call he just would be like we will talk later Eve, or I don't know I have things to do and hang up. His normal funny joking around with her tone was replaced with just a cold person she didn't know or like, but they are back together now so it's all good, his sweet self is back.

"But yes that is our short version of everything that has occurred with us two. I was really scared at some points I won't lie. I mean I was so mad at him about things but I still loved him so much and the thought that I would never have him back just....it just killed me inside." Sophie frowned clearly, still upset by thinking about it all even if it was months ago.

"I'm sorry Sophie, you should have called me." Eve sighed, rubbing her hand up and down her best friend's back.

"I know but I didn't want you involved. I mean he is your brother. Didn't want to put you in a weird place." She shrugged.

"Yeah and you are one of my very best friends, almost my sister so you can talk to me about anything. Even if it is brother related." Eve smiles hugging her friend, "I love you Sophie."

"Love you too Eve. But enough of this stuff. I am so insanely happy to be here with you. I missed you and I know we have many things to catch up with."

"That is true but there is something I wanted to tell you. Well, more to show you." she said and started to show Sophie her new tattoo until Ethan's voice stopped her.

"Hey E! come here I have people I want you to meet." He yelled.

"Coming!" Eve called back as she started walking inside.

"Wait, what are you showing me?" Sophie asked, grabbing her hand.

"Oh well it's nothing big, I just kind of got a tattoo." Eve said a little quietly, waiting for Sophie's response.

"YOU GOT A TATTOO!" she yelled and Eve closed her eyes tight because right on cue.

"Eve I know I did not just hear Sophie right!" yup just like she thought Ethan came running out.

"Oh sorry!" Sophie cringed looking at her boyfriend as Eve just mouthed thanks a lot.

"Ok Ethan before you say anything just listen to me..." she started turning to look at him but all the words she was going to say got caught in her throat when she saw who was standing next to her big brother, "Jaxx?"

"How do you know Jaxon?" Ethan asked, forgetting his sister's tattoo just for a second to figure out the shocked look on his little sister's face.

"Oh I don't..." Eve said quickly not wanting her brother to know the boy standing next to him with an eyebrow raised at her. Of course she knew the guy, his tongue was down her throat not an hour before but if Jaxx was the Jaxon her brother has talked about, the Jaxon Shae O'Connor that is his best friend and roommate she will not let her brother know that, "I just meant like oh hey you must be Jaxon." she faked smiled, hoping that didn't sound as much of a lie out loud as it did in her head.

"Yup that's me and you must be..." Jaxon trailed off trying to act like he didn't know her.

"Eve man." Ethan said in a duh tone, "Are you so caught up in hot girls with nice bodies to forget that I told you her name about a million times?" he said with a small laugh completely missing the big smile on his little sister's face.

"Jaxon you have been here all of an hour and you already found a girl?" Sophie laughs thinking, typically Jaxon. Normally people come to a new town to find out the real stuff, like you know good food places, a hospital if needed but no not Jaxon he finds a new girl. Uhh he is nuts, but she loves him.

"No I didn't find a girl Sophie gosh." He tries to lie with an eye roll.

"Dude don't lie if I remember correctly your words were a hot girl with a kick ass body that could clearly move if I knew what you meant." Ethan repeats making Sophie laugh, Eve blush and Jaxon die right there on the spot.

"Hmm...well Jaxon if you need help with that girl let me know, I know pretty much everyone in town." Eve teases, kinking her eyebrow at him.

"Umm...uhh yeah thanks." He kind of mumbles, clearly a little embarrassed. Of course he believed everything he said about Eve but that doesn't mean he wanted her to know that and to know he confessed that to her big brother of all people that does not make things any better.

"But back to the point of all this Eve, tell me you don't have a tattoo." He said and Eve frowned hoping he might have forgotten about it.

"Umm...well I don't have a tattoo." She lied with a smile and a small shrug.

"Umm...well you are a terrible liar." He said with an eye roll, "Where is it?" he asked.

"No where you can see." She told him, placing her hands on her hips, a little annoyed with him.

"Eve Caya Heyes!" he growled, matching her move but crossing his arms over his chest.

"Ethan Kyle Heyes!" she growled just like him making both Sophie and Jaxon laugh.

"Baby she can get a tattoo I mean seriously I have one."

"Yeah man I do too and plus she is 18. I think she is old enough to get one without your permission." Jaxon tried to reason knowing one how Eve felt about her big brother finding out and also that his best friend was never for tattoos and he has been on that end of the Ethan Kyle Heyes tattoo talk.

"That is different, neither of y'all are my baby sister. Just tell me what it says or looks like." Ethan asked in a more friendly tone.

"It is a cross between love and hate." She tells him as he raises his eyebrow at her.

"Love and hate?" he questions not getting how there can be a cross between.

"Yeah man like you know the line between love and hate is pretty thin and to love someone you also have to hate them a little don't you think? I mean do you honestly think you could have someone having a strong annoying hold on you to get you to do whatever they want with just a cute smile. Personally I think I would hate that a little." Jaxon grinned looking over at Eve repeating her words from just a couple hours before.

"Ok I have to see it." Sophie begs, "Turn around and show me." she says and Eve turns with her back to the guys as she unzips her jeans pulling them down in the front and pulling back her bandage to show her friend.

"Dude, stop staring at my sister's ass." Ethan orders smacking his best friend on the back of the head.

"Damn dude I wasn't." Jaxon again lied but it was a little hard to tell since he was rubbing the back of his head.

"Good, just fantasize about your little girl from early and keep all thoughts and eyes off my baby sister." He told him, he wasn't dumb he knew his sister was gorgeous all he heard from his friends once Eve well...matured was how hot she was, how if she wasn't Ethan's little sister the things they would do and it made Ethan sick. Hints why he never showed his best friend a picture of the mature looking Eve, maybe the ones when they were younger but not the ones after she turned 16 because she grew up quickly.

"So I can fantasize about my girl from earlier?" Jaxon smirked over at his best friend who just shrugged. He knew Ethan would kill him if he knew about earlier. That if he knew the girl from this morning was his sister and also that he knew exactly where that tattoo was. How his cool breath blew on it and his finger traced over it, he gave her chills all over and as he stands here thinking about it he just wants to push Eve up against the nearest wall and take her right there, his best friend's sister or not.

"Eve that is so cool." Sophie squeals, getting down a little to look at it, "Did it hurt?"

"Like hell." Eve said as Sophie stood back up and zipped her jeans re-buttoning them, "But that is a story I will share with you later." She winks and Sophie gives her a look and Eve just repeats, "Later."

"Umm ok sounds good." She smiles, "Ok Ethan don't worry you can't see it clothed really so just relax."

"What would that Clean Teen Virgin boyfriend of yours think?" he asked and Eve just let out a groan.

"What is a Clean Teen Virgin boyfriend?" Jaxon asked crossing his arms tight over his chest and Eve would be stupid if she didn't notice some sign of jealousy.

"He is Eve's little good I will never have sex until marriage boyfriend." Ethan explains, "Which I am not at all upset about since you should have no sex. Thanks god you broke up with that Daniel guy because he was just a sex addicted ass."

"Ok first you can't really tell me not to have sex I mean hell you had sex at 15 to my 17 also he was not sex addicted and two he wasn't my boyfriend, I mean not really more of a..." Eve trails off trying to find her words.

"Fuck buddy?" Jaxon asked with a raised eyebrow and with a small bit of embarrassment Eve nodded and mumbled a yeah.

"Dude!" Ethan freaked smacking his friend again on the head.

"What? That's what they call them." Jaxon growled again, rubbing his head, "And stop hitting me."

"I don't care what they call them, don't call my sister that."

"I didn't call her that. I said that was what Danny or whatever his name was. And it was more of a question; she was the one that nodded with agreement."

"Ok stop!" Eve begged, "Let's not talk about my sex life, k?" she asked with a small hint of annoyance in her voice.

"And Ethan shut up leave her alone. She got a tattoo, nothing you can do about it now and she has sex which you can't bitch about because if you do then me and you won't have sex for a month!" she told him getting a sad look on his face and a laugh from Eve and Jaxon. She loved holding the whole not having sex thing against him, she normally got her way with that threat.

"Now stop being so damn protective!" Sophie said, rolling her eyes at her boyfriend, and grabbing Eve's hand, "We are going inside so just do whatever you two do."

"Boys." Eve smiled as her and Sophie walked between Jaxon and Ethan and Eve gave Jaxon a small wink before walking in the house.
