The next day, Jenne decided to surprise Angela when next she saw her. She had an interesting idea for an afternoon excursion. Her entire day seemed to drag, as she anticipated her plan.
During lunch, she went to several stores and bought a variety of interesting outfits, including an incredibly slutty dress for her night out at the club on Friday.
Her coworker had another shock, as Jenne managed to "accidentally" give him a peek at her now hairless mound. The poor guy was in torment, but in a good way, Jenne thought.
Finally, it was time to go, and Jenne headed to the Tattoo parlor/Piercing studio that Jenne had told her about. She walked into the small shop, relieved to see it was clean, and not filled with a bunch of scary looking people.
The guy working in the shop was in his twenties, had a shaved head, and had a fair number of tattoos. Jenne was momentarily taken aback, somehow expecting that she would be seeing a woman for this.
"Can I help you?"
"Hi, yes, I was looking for a piercing."
"Sure, I can help you with that. What are you looking for?"
"I was looking for a navel piercing" she hesitantly replied.
"Sure thing, come into the back."
She mentally kicked herself. She was chickening out. Still somewhat paralyzed by the situation, she let the guy sit her down. When he asked, she bared her navel. He took a needle, and a sharp pain later, she had a navel ring.
She took a deep breath, admiring the now throbbing piercing, and came to a decision.
