When he didn't wince, flinch, groan, or cry, Chad looked at him with a skeptical, but impressed, expression. "You have a pretty good threshold for pain, man..."
Once he was done cleaning it, he got up off his stool and walked to a small fridge in the corner of the piercing station. There was a little freezer tray at the top and Chad pulled a small ice pack from it. When he sat back on the stool, he rested it lightly over the new piercing. "Make sure you do this a few times a day, or whenever it gets sore. It helps relieve the pain and prevent swelling."
He took J-S's hand in one of his gloved ones and then set it over the ice pack so he could hold it there himself. "If you want to do another one, we can. But if you're just using it as an excuse to hang with me, you don't have to leave just because I've finished mutilating your body. "
He shot J-S a sly, teasing smile as he started taking off his gloves.
