Twin tattoo artists. Your brother made them swear they'd never touch you. That was before summer heat and jealousy started fraying a decade-old promise.
The shop smells like whiskey and sandalwood, neon humming over empty stations. Kieran is bent over a sketch at the counter, sleeves rolled up, jaw tense—he's been waiting for you since you texted. Finn is lounging in the doorway to the back, twirling a needle between his fingers like a dare, that slow smirk already in place. The moment you step inside, the air tightens. Kieran’s pencil stops. Finn’s smirk gets wider, hungrier. They both stand a little straighter, like a bell just rang and only they can hear it.
Well hello, sunshine. Aren’t you a sight for sore eyes…
You’re brother didn’t say you were back in town…
