stained with the imprint of love... me and you

"Sally seems to have had a fight with that bastard Matthew." Candice and Erica walked back to the tattoo shop with the pizza they bought.

"That's normal." Erica didn't tell Candice what happened that night in the lounge with Matthew.Especially the scene where Sally barges in at the end. "Aren't you and Jesse arguing and having fun every day?"

"That's different." Candice replied reflexively, but couldn't tell what was different.

"What's the difference?" Erica replied. "It's not all about going to bed and arguing, going to bed and arguing."

"And it doesn't look like that guy is bad at that, isn't he." Erica smiled. "Maybe after sleeping with Sally, I'll be able to please her."

"It's reconciled." Erica added.

"How do you know that guy's skills in bed are not bad." Candice felt a little regretful after finishing speaking.

"I don't know." Erica looked at Candice without malice and smiled. "But you know that, right?"

"Damn it." Candice actually said this to Matthew who had already walked in front of her and Erica.

"My ears always feel itchy..." Matthew saw Candice, who was a little embarrassed, and Erica, who was beside him with a calm face. "It turned out that two beautiful girls were talking about my kung fu skills in bed..."

"In that case, it's not your ears that should itch." Candice said sarcastically.

"You mentioned it like that...it's really true..." Matthew responded lewdly, and looked at Erica who was looking at him.

"Why are you here?" Candice looked surprised to meet Matthew here.

"Jesse told me," Matthew replied.At the same time, he also felt Erica's gaze looking at him.

"Have you been to the store?" Candice asked the same question that Erica had in mind.

'Have you been to Jesse? 'This is the question Erica wanted to ask.

"Jesse told me that today is your day off." Matthew didn't answer Candice's question, but just said something to Erica.

"So." Erica's first words after seeing Matthew. "You and Sally haven't reconciled, and you came here?"

"It should be said that there is no need to make up again." After laughing, Matthew felt that Erica's question itself was wrong. "However, what do you mean Sally and I didn't get back together...we didn't really date."

"Wait." Candice was a little confused by Matthew's words. "What do you and Sally mean now?"

"It probably means that we will never meet again." Matthew thought for a while. "The slap she gave me last time seemed to mean that."

"She hit you?" Candice asked in surprise. "Why?"

"Why..." Matthew gave Erica a meaningful look. "Probably because I'm an asshole."

"And it didn't just hit me," Matthew continued, aiming in Erica's direction from time to time. "She even kicked me..."

"Where did I kick you?" Erica was more curious about this question.

"It's just a little below the knee..." Matthew said to Erica with a smirk. "It won't affect my strength in other aspects..."

"You...have the guts to say that..." Candice was completely overwhelmed by Matthew's shamelessness.

"Men...it's nothing unusual to be shameless." Matthew explained to Candice. "Jesse shouldn't have been ashamed for a while when he chased you..."

"It's really strange that you are as shameless as you are." Candice deliberately challenged Matthew. "It's not just a random Jesse."

"So..." Matthew didn't mind the teasing of Candice's words at all, but felt that it was very fulfilling to make Erica standing next to him laugh. "With my level of shamelessness, I should pursue someone who is more complicated."

Candice glanced at Erica, thinking that Erica would say something because of Matthew's words.

"It seems obvious who some more complicated people are..." Matthew also looked at Erica who was silent.

"I'll talk to him, Candi." Erica, who had been silent for a while, spoke to Candice first. "You go back first."

In fact, Candice wanted to ask Erica if she was moved by Matthew's casual remark.But he still didn't ask why Matthew was in front of him.

"That's good." Candice looked at Erica. "I'm going back to the store first."

"See you later." Erica said goodbye to Candice.

"See you later..." Matthew also said goodbye to Candice deliberately teasingly.

Watching Candice leave, Erica turned to face Matthew.

"Isn't it funny..." Matthew spoke first, with helplessness in his voice. "The woman who goes to bed by herself, the woman who is dating by herself... are not the same person."

"This funny thing seems to have happened to many people." Erica pretended to think about it seriously. "And, have we dated before?"

"Don't remember... forget it." Matthew waved his hand. "Then start now."

"Start what." Erica didn't understand what Matthew meant.

"Start dating me." Matthew continued, putting his hand on Erica's shoulder. "Then slowly... I hope I can sleep with you too."

"I'm not mistaken..." Matthew looked at Erica with a smile. "It seems that everyone is used to obeying such a set."

"Why did you suddenly follow everyone's rules?" Erica didn't shake off Matthew's hand on her shoulder.

"Because my method doesn't work." Matthew smiled helplessly. "So, we can only try other methods."

"It's not that your method doesn't work." Erica looked at Matthew seriously, trying to explain something. "I think... Actually, I am..."

"Not used to having sex with people, is it?" Matthew interrupted Erica. "In the lounge that night, your reaction to me was not what you said..."

"So sorry." Erica thought of the passionate kiss that Matthew hugged herself on the table that night, and suddenly felt that it was unnecessary to say anything more.

"Sorry for what?" Matthew said with a smirk. "You don't need to apologize for such a mistake..."

"I can't ask for more..." Matthew put his arm around Erica's shoulder.

"Give me some time." Erica said suddenly as if making a decision. "I, will explain it to you."

"The main thing." Erica looked at Matthew. "I will also fight with you as you wish."

"Then, I have to say sorry to my right hand more during this period..." Matthew said jokingly.But because of Erica's words, he was so excited that he hugged the hand around Erica's shoulder even tighter.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

"Where you told Matthew that guy me and Erica were going?" Candice handed Jesse the pizza as soon as he was back in the store.

"So what." Jesse didn't think there was anything to fuss about.

"What do you mean by that tone?" Candice thought Jesse's tone sounded like he was meddling.And Candice felt that it was Jesse who told Matthew where Erica was.

"I don't mean anything." Jesse glanced at Candice, then opened the pizza box without further ado.

Jesse, who frowned at the opened annual sa box, shook his head unhappily.

"You don't know that I don't like pineapple?!" Jesse frowned dissatisfied when he saw the sporadic pineapple slices on the pizza, and said something to Candice in a loud voice.

"You said it casually." After hearing Jesse's words, Candice actually felt in her heart that she had actually forgotten about it.

"What do you mean I'm casual?! You've been with me for so long, don't you even care about such trivial things?" Jesse felt that it would be fine if Candice smiled and said sorry. "Then why don't you just put some poop on it?!"

"Oh! I'm really sorry!! It's not on the menu!!!" Candice also shouted at Jesse. "But you hate pineapple on your pizza so much and want to eat poop, I'll try to go down the toilet and pull it out for you to put on it!!"

"You're a piece of shit! What else do you need to do in the toilet?!" Jesse played with his usual decibels when he and Candice were arguing. "I should just flush you down the toilet!"

"Then you enjoy fucking my piece of shit, don't you?! Don't you?!" Candice rushed to Jesse and knocked the pizza out of the box. "Go and dry your own shit in the toilet from now on!! Get the hell out of here!!!"

"Fuck off?! Fuck off, do you want to stay and look at the store?! Shit!" Jesse slapped the table hard. "Every time it's your turn to look at the store, you go out and hang around! If it wasn't for me, Patrick would have fired you!!!"

"Patrick didn't fire me because your shitty brain can't pay the bills every time!! You idiot!! So you just sit here and watch the store like an idiot!!" Candice said to herself argued. "Also, today you are the one who is stuck in the store like a pile of poop stuck to the toilet and doesn't want to go out!!"

"That's good! Get out of here and look at the shop!!" Jesse walked towards the door, deliberately loudly mocking Candice's words. "Compared to me, don't you fit in this toilet like shop?! You piece of shit!!!"

"You are the fucking piece of shit!! Your mother pulled you out of your anus like shit!! You mutant shit!!! Get the hell out!!!" Candice cursed The bigger the fire, the Jesse who was standing at the door was pushed out.

"Get out of here!! Bitch! At least you won't be seen like a bastard again!!" Jesse cursed at Candice who had closed the door and turned her back to her.

Noticing passers-by on the street looking sideways at him, still in a state of rage, Jesse turned to the left and strode away.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The direction Jesse is going is the direction Erica and Matthew are returning to.

So after a while, Jesse, who was walking fast, met Erica, who was walking with Matthew.

"How did you come out?" Erica asked a little puzzled.

"Kicked out by that bitch." Jesse's voice was not too loud, but he could still hear his anger.

"It's... another fight..." Erica let out a long sigh.

"You don't want to follow the look of that bitch." Jesse finished speaking and looked at Matthew. "However, it seems that the position of being a bitch on your side is reversed from that of me and her."

"Hey! Hey!" Matthew stopped. "Don't take your anger out on me..."

"I'm just clarifying the facts." Jesse said, looking at Matthew.

"Okay." Erica interrupted. "What about her?"

"Who cares about her." Jesse hummed.

"Tonight is my sister's birthday," Matthew suggested. "I wanted to invite the three of you to go together."

"Now just invite two." Jesse replied.

"You're talking nonsense again." Erica glanced at Jesse. "You left her alone in the store like this?"

"And don't throw her into a pile of alligators with their mouths open waiting to eat her?! What's wrong?!" Jesse said more and more. "And maybe even a crocodile hates eating an idiot like her."

Erica, who was speechless at Jesse's words, glanced at Jesse, then sighed.

"Then, it's just the three of us going together." Matthew didn't care because Erica had been in a good mood just now.

"I think..." Erica opened her mouth and was about to express her opinion...

"I don't want to hear what you think," Jesse interrupted. "You always speak for her."

"You have to take my side today." Jesse looked at Erica.

At the same time, Matthew also found it interesting to watch Erica.

"Alas..." Erica let out another long sigh. "Then let's go."
