Summary
“Hey! You should get a tattoo.”
“Oh, no no. I don’t think I’d like it very much.” Beatrice says, shaking her head.
“The pain is nothing for most people, it’s just like an annoying prickly massage. I’m gentle, I promise.” Ava winks and laughs at Beatrice’s flush. The woman blushes a lot, and Ava doesn’t mind making it happen. Actually, it may be her new favorite thing.
Or
Beatrice is a florist with a past she’s tried desperately to run away from and Ava is (simp)ly a tattoo artist just trying to find someone to spend forever with. They meet when Ava's friends Shannon and Mary are in the midst of planning their wedding and need Ava to step in and help.

Summary
Never before an optimist, the feeling of hope used to be somewhat of a foreign concept for Beatrice. It had always been considered impolite to wish for more than she was given, for she had been taught that greed was a sin against God.
Despite this, and against her initial resistance, hope had settled deep in her chest that day, on those steps, some time ago, and never left. It’d festered there — grown, stretched, and spread, like a rash. Hope rooted itself in every fiber of her being, gaining strength even as the time away from Ava lengthened; almost parasitic the way it burrowed so far down into her skin that it reached the innermost part of her. It stuck to her, like sweat, persistent in its very nature. She hoped for Ava every day — and she hated it.
