Tattoos and Heartbreak. [closed]

@ Gunslinger;

Cassandra was walking down the north strip of the city's downtown night life area, carrying two boxes of pizzas as she was making her way to her older brother's tattoo shop. Cassandra always walked over to the shop on the days she worked at the library so that her brother, Danny, could drive her home after he closes the tattoo shop. Cassandra sometimes thought that Danny was overprotective of her, because he was afraid that people, mainly men, would take advantage of her since she is deaf.

Cassandra soon arrived to the doors of Mystics Tattoos, and walked inside. She waited to be greeted by her brother, but instead Hannah walked up to the front.

"Hey Hannah, I brought pizza." She greeted the pretty blonde girl with the black tips. Although Cassandra was deaf, she could talk and read lip movement so that she could communicate with people who didn't know sign language. "Where's Danny?" She asked the girl as she peaked behind her shoulder to see if he was walking by.

Danny looked at his watch as he waited for Nico let him in his office. He knew that his younger sister, Cassie, would be at his tattoo shop waiting for him to take her home. He thought he would be back before she had arrived, but apparently Nico had other clients he had to deal with. Danny just hoped that his co-worker and friend, Hannah would tell Cassie that he had to make a quick errand run or something believable so that his sister wouldn't worry about him or really know what he was doing.

Danny had gotten into some money trouble a few months ago where he almost had to close down his tattoo shop and not be able to financially support his deaf sister. He was running out of time and desperately needed the money, so he went to see Nico Mayson, the notorious drug lord in the state. Nico had lended him the money, but in return, Danny has to sell drugs until he is debt free. So at this moment, Danny is at the factory where Nico has his drug cartel, waiting to deliver this month's payment and receive the next month supplies.

Hannah sat at the front desk of the tattoo shop. She was working on a sketch for a tattoo appointment she had the next day. She looked up as the bell dinged and she seen Cassie. "Hey Cassie." She said, smiling. She heard her ask about Danny "He had to run out to get an some stuff and he said he would be right back." She said. Hannah got up, "You can take the pizza to the back office. She had always liked Cassie. They had became really good friends since she started working with Danny. Hannah got some paper plates and handed them to Cassie. She was glad she had gotten away from Nico years ago. If he was around she was worried about what her life would be like.

Hannah sat in the back with Cassie eating then looked over as Danny came in. "Hey." She said. "Hungry?" She asked as she opened the pizza box. She had grown to like him a lot in the last two years. They spent pretty much every day together and he was such a good guy.

Nico looked up as Danny came in, "Well look who it is." He said, smiling. Nico leaned back against his chair, "How was your month?" He asked. So far Danny had been doing well. He grabbed the drugs for Danny and slid them to him. "Any questions?" He asked. He knew he probably didnt have any, but he always likes to ask. His business ran pretty smoothly and he let Danny in out of the goodness of his heart. Clearly the guy needed the help and he was willing to do anything to help his poor sister and keep his business afloat.

Danny shook his head at Nico as a reply, knowing that it was best to keep this transaction short and sweet. He hated coming to this place every month, but it was the price he had to take since he made a deal with the devil. Grabbing the bag, he left after being told the next deadline as he was dismissed.

Danny arrived to his Tattoo shop about twenty minutes later after stopping by his storage locker to hide the bag of drugs. He smiled at Hannah when she offered him some pizza. "Yeah thanks." He said as he took the plate from her and sat next at the end of the table, having Cassie and Hannah on both sides of her. "Thanks for the pizza sis, I'll give you the money for it when I take you home." He told her before looking at Hannah. "You free tonight? I was thinking that you and I can hang out after I drop Cassie home." He asked her. Danny started to like Hannah a while ago. She stuck by him when he thought the shop was going out of business and she got along well with Cassie, which made him like her even more. "Thanks for not telling her where I was." He whispered.

Cassie shook her head at Danny when he said that he was going to pay her back for the pizzas. Danny always helped her financially since they both became adults. She knew that he was doing it out of kindness and because she was deaf and not a lot job would hire her because of it. But she made a decent living salary working at the library to support herself without any help.

Cassie continued to eat her pizza silently as she kept to herself, but observed Hannah and Danny. She knew that the two liked each other but wouldnt confess to each other about said feelings. She thought that Hannah was a nice girl and she got along with her real well.

Hannah smiled as Cassie shook her head when Danny offered to pay her back. She knew it irratated the girl that her brother was overbearing. Hannah took a sip of her water then looked at him and nodded, "Sure, what did you want to do?" She asked him. She figured she could just meet him there. She was very careful to not let him know about her family or that part of her life. She just told him and Cassie they lived across the country. Hannah got up when they were finished and started to help Danny close up. She grabbed her keys and things then walked out with Cassie and her brother. She looked at Cassie, "What did you do today?" She asked her. She wasnt sure if the girl had worked or not for the day. She was sure she had.

[I figure I will skip Nico tol he comes in later? Maybe once Danny starts struggling or I will have him call Hannah throughout it]

Danny smiled at Hannah, glad that she wanted to hang out with him. He figured that he would start making the drug runs tomorrow night, since he had a whole month to sell them and make the monthly quota. "Maybe we go to the pub that you talk about a lot and get some drinks and play pool?" He suggested as he finished eating pizza, before getting up to start closing the shop for the night.

Cassie looked at Hannah and smiled, "I worked for most of the day, but I just spent my morning reading this new book that I'm borrowed from work." She answered the girl. Cassie was a bookworm, which why it was perfect for her to work at the library. She followed Cassie and Danny out to the parking lot which was behind the shop and stopped once she was near Danny's truck. "I'll see you later Hannah. Have fun with Danny tonight, he really is a nice guy." Cassie said as she hugged the blonde before getting inside the truck.

Hannah nodded, "I could go for a few drinks." She said as she walked with him towards the cars. She unlocked her doors before hugging Cassie. She looked at Danny, "I'll meet you at the pub." She said as she got in her car. She headed to the bar and walked in, ordering herself a beer. She took a swig of it as she waited for Danny to show up. She liked that he took care of his sister.

Danny watched Hannah get into her car and drive off before he started to drive Cassie to her apartment. Cassie waved at Hannah from the window before looking at her older brother while he drove. "Are you trying to date Hannah? I think she's good for you." She said as she held her bag close to her chest as she looked back at the window. When they got to her apartment building, she saw Danny unbuckling his seatbelt knowing that he was going to walk up with her to her small apartment like he did every time.

"Don't, I'll be fine. I can walk myself up to my apartment without you, besides you don't want to keep Hannah waiting at the bar." Cassie told Danny, before heading up to her apartment. He was so protective of her and he has always been like that since they were kids, but it has gotten a little more overbearing when they lost their parents when she was 16 and he took on the role as the parent when he was 19, but she knew he means we'll.

Danny sighed and buckled his seat belt and drove off to the pub. The only reason he didn't walk with Cassie to her apartment was because Hannah was waiting for him at the pub. Although he was pretty sure that Hannah would have understood, he decided to let Cassie have a little freedom just this once.

Danny arrived to the pub and instantly finding Cassie sitting at a table, nursing a bottle of beer. He quickly order himself a bottle of Corona before sitting with Hannah. "Hey, I hope you weren't waiting too long." He greeted her, pressing his lips to her cheek for a brief kiss. "Wanna play some pool?" He asked.

[I fixed the pictures haha]

Hannah looked at Danny as he walked up to her. She smiled as he kissed her cheek, "Sure." She said. She got up with him, taking her beer with her. She watched as Danny put the quarters in the pool table then grabbed one of the pool sticks. She felt like they spent most of their time either at the shop or at the bar. She didn't mind it though because it was better than her sitting at home. Hannah looked at him, "Do you want to break?" She asked him once she racked up the balls. She moved away from the table and watched as he took his turn. She was pretty good, but so was Danny so she felt like they were evenly matched. Unless she got drunk then she was hopeless and she was not good. She took a sip of her drink, then took her turn, hitting on of the solid balls in. She shot at another one, but missed, letting Danny take his turn.

@ Agust.D

[ lol]

Danny hit one of the striped balls in the hole and smirked at Hannah. "Let's make things more interesting." He suggested he went to take another turn to hit another striped ball, making it in. "Let's have a friendly competition, three rounds, my treat." He said as he decided to strategize his next move, "If I win, I take you out on a date." Danny smirked as he thought about what it would like to date Hannah.

[I completely forgot about it ]

Hannah looked at him when he mentioned a competition. She smiled when he said what he wanted if he won. "Hmm...and what do i get if I win?" She asked him, looking up at him. She liked the idea of spending time with him and possibly dating him. She felt like she had spent so much time with him that she knew him pretty well. Sure the whole selling drug things wasn't good, but it was better than anything her family did. Hannah bit her bottom lip lightly as he looked at her. "Okay we can do that. You're going to lose though." She told him.

@ Agust.D

@ Gunslinger;

[Lol me too until you mentioned it]

Danny chuckled, "You choose." He said and then missed his shot, making it Hannah's turn. "I don't know about that, I have a good feeling about this competition." He said with a smirk and lightly tickled Hannah's side, making her miss her shot. Danny smiled innocently when she glared at him, "You'll have another turn." He teased the blonde as he strategize his next move before hitting two striped balls in the hole.

Hannah glared at him, "Hey." She pouted. She watched as he went, "Cheater." She teased him. "You shouldnt even get to win this because you cheated." She said as she watched him miss. She took her turn and smiled when she made a few in before she missed. she looked at Danny, letting him go. She finished her drink, then ordered another one.

@ Agust.D

@ Gunslinger;

"Me cheat? Never" he teased as he took his turn, "You stikk didn't say what you wanted if you win" he told her, after missing the ball by a centimeter. He ordered another drink and then looked at her, "Want any appetizers?" He asked Hannah with a smile.

Hannah smiled at him, "I am still thinking about what I want. I want it to be good." She said. She nodded when he mentioned food, "I want mozzarella sticks." She said before she took her shot and missed. She watched as he ordered the same thing he always did. She smiled at him as he looked at her, "So predictable." She said

@ Agust.D

@ Gunslinger;

"Keep thinking then, although I'm pretty sure I got this competition in the bag." Danny said and winked at her before ordering mozzarella sticks for Hannah and wings for him, paying for both. While they waited for their food, two continued playing the first round of pool, which Danny ended up winning.

Danny looked at Hannah when the waiter brought their food. "Let's take a break." He said and put the pool sick down.

Hannah smiled as he sat down with him and began to eat her cheese sticks. "I love these." She said, looking at him. She ate and took a sip of her drink. Hannah finished eating then took one of his wings, "You get these all the time." She teased him. She was glad that Danny actually like her back.

@ Agust.D

@ Gunslinger;

Danny rolled his eyes playfully, "You're lucky I like you, otherwise I would have to fight you for taking my wings." He teased. He took a sip of his beer after finishing his wings. "I'm sure by now you know that I like you, more than a friend." He started.

Hannah smiled as she look at him and took the chicken off the bone. "They are good." She said. She looked at him when he mentioned liking her. "Yea I know." She said. She took a sip of her drink and watched him.

@ Agust.D

@ Gunslinger;

"Do you feel the same? You're the only girl or person who knows me and hasn't shamed me for what I'm doing. Not only that, you continued to have my back when the other employees left. You honestly mean a lot to me." Danny said, being completely honest with her. "And you're good with Cassie and understand why I do the things I do for her."
