"Oh for fucks sakes I dont ever wanna get a tattoo. At least not for a while." I said as I felt the need to scratch the tattoo.

Harry turns to the man behind him and asks "Hey is there a tattoo removal shop around here?" He asks as I smack him on the head. "Ouch! Thats abuse!" He says as he rubs his head to ease the pain away.

"I know that we did not get a tattoo for you to just shock it off not even 10 minutes later." I say as I grab his wrist and drag him away from the man. As we head out the door his mouth opens again, "Here my number! Text me the location!" I hear his head hit the glass door.

"Idiot." I mumble as he drops his jaw, "It's good to have you back though." Harry says sincerely as he hugs me tightly

-

"Oh I wanted to give you this back," I take the item from my pocket and hand it to him, he looks at me and back down at our hands and looks at what I gave him.

"I thought you should give the ring to someone else, someone special." I say as he nods, and puts it on one of his fingers. "Your gonna wear it?" I ask as he hums me a yes.

"It's kinda girl-ish...don't you think?" I tell him as he's focused on the ring, "Having painted nails is girl-ish too. But i still do it." He tells me as he looks up at me and smiles.

"Touché" I say as we walk into my house and see our moms sitting down.

"Have you two been sitting there waiting for us?" I question as they both nod their heads. "So how was it? How was the ice cream?" Anne asks as Harry and I both look at each other nervously.

Yeah we lied to them, we said we were going out for ice cream to talk when we actually went to go get tattoos. "Haha...about that..." Harrys says as we roll up our sleeves to at least are upper arm, Our mother gasps as they look at each other in disbelief. "We got tattoos...surprise.." I say as Harry and I nervously smile.

Harry suddenly blurts out a "She made me do it!" He points over at me and I drop my jaw. "Oh hell no." I unbuckle the belt I had on and slid it out of the loop holes as Harry breathes out an "Oh shit." before he starts running away from me. "Harry you get back here you little shit!" I shout as he continues running in fear.

Harry ends up tripping over a shoe that was just left in the hallway, Harry face plants as he sits uo quickly and points at the shoe

"Who the hell leaves their shoe in the middle of the hallway?" He says as he picks the shoe up to see whose shoe it was, "Oh shit it's mine. My bad." he says embarrassed as he throws his shoe behind him.

"What're you doing tomorrow? I was thinking maybe we could go watch a movie or something." Harry asks as he stays sprawled on the floor in the hallway.

"Um well I was actually gonna tell you that I'm gonna go in this trip with sophia, yeah it's our 6 month anniversary. So she wants to take me somewhere." I say as harry looks down looking disappointed.

"Listen I know you didn't wanna hear that, but i'd rather tell you than lie to you about where I'm going tomorrow." I say as he looks up at me, devastation and sadness is plastered all over his face.

"When will you guys be back?" He asks as he pouts his lip, "Maybe in 3 days. I'm still not entirely sure." I tell him as he nods his head

"And your leaving tomorrow?" He asks as I look away, and kick the air. "Uh I'm actually leaving at 7 tonight." I say as he says a soft 'oh' and nods his head.
