I was 17 years old watching a porn with my boyfriend. One of the girls in the porn has her nipples pierced. I told my boyfriend that they were the most ugly things I have ever seen in my life. He totally disagreed saying "it is beautiful." I playfully hit him. I then thought to myself how could metal through nipples be even remotely beautiful. After that night I became intrigued. I wanted to find out as much information about piercing as I could, especially the nipples. The more I looked at pictures and the more information I knew, the more I became fond of them.

For the next 7 months it was the piercing that I longed for. I kept putting things in front of it. I got my labret done. Took it out. Had it redone. Worked more on my tattoo. I kept putting off the nipples because I was nervous about them. At the point they were the most beautiful piercing ever. They looked so sexy on girls and I had to go and do it.
One night I was sitting bored out of my mind over at a friend's house. We started talking about piercing and I told her how badly I wanted to get mine done. She said I should just do it. I called my best guy friend and asked him to loan me the money until the banks opened in the morning. For some reason I was praying he would say no and all the nervousness would be set free. With my luck he said he'd loan me the money only if he got to watch. I said ok.
Deciding which place to go was very important to me. I decided a place on Broadway called the Laughing Buddha. I've been there before to see my friends get pierced and knew that they were very clean and did nice piercings. I walked in the place and I was so nervous that I forgot my I.D. in the car. That was probably a good thing. I got a chance to calm myself down by walking. Plus I got to have a cigarette. I go back in with my I.D. I had to fill out all the paperwork. He asked me what kind of jewelry that I wanted. I looked at the hoops and then thought to myself could you imagine if those got ripped out. Plus they would just not look right on my nipples. So I decided to get barbells. He asked me what gauge. 12 or a 14. I wanted a 12g.
Adrian was awesome. He was this homosexual guy that made me feel so comfortable. I didn't want a guy to pierce me. I was being self conscious, but he made me laugh. He took my mind off things. I asked him lots of questions before he started. Like the pain level, healing process, price, and things like that. He knew the answer to every question and made sure I understood everything that he was about to do.
He had me take my shirt off and stand as straight and as tall as I could. It was funny watching him examine my breasts. He was trying to find the right placement. I told him that I just wanted one today due to the fact that my friend didn't bring enough money to cover both. I told him to pierce the right one. He put the marks on where it should be. I laid down on the bed.
He was opening the packages of needles and getting the jewelry ready. I could feel my stomach dropping to the floor. My nervousness was coming back. Crazy thoughts were running threw my head. I had my friend come over and hold my hand. I tried not to let my fear show, but I was sweating bullets. Adrian came over to the bed and told me if I didn't want to watch to close my eyes right now. So I closed them. He told me to take a couple deep breaths. He said now take a deep breath and hold it in. Deep breath! A sudden sting came to my body, but no pain. I made it through. He put the jewelry in. I looked at the barbell and it looked to long for my nipple. He told me that he could change it to a shorter size. That's the only part that hurt about the whole thing. When he took out the longer bar and put the shorter bar in.
I was so happy that I got it done. I worked myself up so high and got so nervous for nothing. I got up and looked in the mirror. It was beautiful. I decided to wait until the right nipple healed before I went and got the left one done. Two more weeks and I will have both pierced.
