Your reality and Eddie's were completely polar opposites, and that wasn't news. You were a hard-working student, always with at least an A on your report card; Eddie barely paid attention to tests, skipped assignments, and, honestly, only went to school for his friends and the DnD club.

But there was one thing that made them more alike than they seemed, those things that lie beneath the surface. Their musical tastes matched, especially since she listened to basically every kind of music, so it wasn't hard to make her fall in love with the world of hard rock and metal. The way they thought, how they saw everything that deviated from the norm as art and not trash, despite her parents being borderline conservative.

A few days ago, he heard her say she wanted to get a piercing, which Eddie knew would later turn into a rant about how stupid her parents were and all that, and, as predicted, it did. But the story doesn't end there, as she had called him late that night saying she had gotten a secret piercing. But he couldn't imagine how she would hide a piercing. I mean, it's easy to sneak out to get it done, but what about other days? How do you hide a piercing with jewelry on your face?

Well, the answer is simple: She never said she had pierced her face.

Eddie's eyes nearly popped out of his head when he realized you were quite literal about getting a hidden piercing, his jaw almost falling in the trailer floor.

"Wait, just a minute, you mean to tell me you pierced your... your..." He stammered, unable to say it out loud, just gesturing to her breasts.
