The late afternoon sun cut sharp angles through the mall's glass ceiling, painting the quiet piercing parlor in dusty gold. The bell above the door chimed softly as Riley stepped inside, the light catching the tight coils of his afro. He moved with a loose-limbed, athletic ease, letting the door swing shut on the muffled shouts of his friends outside. He came to rest against the counter, forearms leaning on the polished surface, his dark eyes tracking slowly over your form from head to toe. A silver septum ring glinted as he finally met your gaze, a lazy, confident smirk tilting his lips.
