Tattoos Tell ; Gabe + Lexa
The old Ford Bronco sputters to a halt once Lexa successfully parallel parks the hulking thing on a downtown street right outside of Ink Addicts. It's growing late and the police captain is mildly surprised she was able to free herself from work long enough to make this visit. Whatever the case may be, she doesn't have long to think about it. If she waits too long he may leave before she can snag him.
Lexa steps out of her car and locks it before striding around to the sidewalk and approaching the door. As suspected it's locked but as she peers inside she sees movement in the back of the tattoo shop. It's very possible that Gabe has assigned someone else the task of closing up the shop for the night and has run home. In that case, this will just seem like an awkwardly timed request for a tattoo touch up. But she's banking on Gabe's sense of responsibility and care for his business.
With a sharp rap on the door, the woman wait to be greeted at the door.
