Chapter 4

                                    

                                          
"Blaze?" Joey suddenly asked
"Yes Joey?? I asked, turning to look at him

"Where'd you learn to fight?" He asked, making all the guys stop and look at me

"On the streets." I simply replied

"You've had it pretty rough, huh?!" Corey exclaimed

"I guess so. Like I said at breakfast, I left home at sixteen. Although I was on the streets, I did finish high school. Barely graduate, but I did finish." I stated, laughing softly
"Wow. I would love to sit down and write some stuff with you sometime. If you're cool with it." 
Corey said, looking intently at me

"Sure. I bet whatever you came up with would be killer!!" I laughed
He gave me a warm smile as Jim made his way over. I still couldn't believe I was getting to hang out with members of Slipknot in my shop!! Then I remembered asking Corey if I could get some pics of them in the shop and stuff, so I asked him about it. All 4 of the guys said they'd be more than happy to let me take pics of them, and even promised to sign a few for me.

Corey seemed to be having a helluva good time letting me take pics of him in the shop. As the day went on, I found myself becoming more and more attached to him. His laugh was adorable and infectious, he had a great sense of humor, and was hot as sin. Despite his "tough guy" appearance, he seemed really sweet. Since we'd gotten busy as hell, I wasn't able to get lunch. Corey, being the sweet guy he is, brought me lunch. Instinctively, I kissed his cheek in thanks when he handed my lunch to me and proceeded to blush madly at what I'd done.
 **COREY'S POV**
Joey, Jim, Chris, and I spent the whole day with Blaze at the tattoo parlor. She was the hottest woman I'd ever seen! Her "tough girl" attitude was incredibly sexy and she could definitely hold her own in a fight. She was very independant and highly intelligent. I was suprised at how well she could hold a conversation, not trying to say she was stupid or anything.

The shop had become very busy and we weren't able to talk to her much. I wanted to stay here as long as I could, knowing it wouldn't be long before I'd have to leave her to go back on tour. She missed lunch because they were so busy, so I had the bright idea to bring her lunch back. When she was able to get a moment to actually eat, she gave me a kiss on the cheek and then began to blush madly. She was so adorable when she blushed!
"Corey.... you have a thing for her?" Joey whispered as we sat down on the couch

"I.... I don't know what you're talking about." I said in a low tone
"Dude! I've seen the way you stare at her! You haven't smiled like this in a very long time, man." Joey replied
"What are we talking about?" Jim asked as he made his way over
"The fact that Corey has a thing for Blaze." Joey said before I could even open my mouth 
"Corey has a thing for Blaze?!?!" Jakob, the shop owner, exclaimed
"Yeah he does, even though he won't actually admit it." Joey said, putting me out there
"Hmmm. That's interesting." Jakob said, looking between me and Blaze, who was busy tattooing this guy who appeared to be hitting on her
"Why do you say that?" Jim questioned
"No reason." Jakob said before walking to the counter to cash people out
