First tattoo

Dream POV:

I hadn't ever thought too much about getting a tattoo till only a couple weeks ago. When people asked if I ever would, it had me thinking. My YouTube channel had become a huge part of my life and I feel the need to honour it in some way, in a permanent way. The signature smile was easily recognisable for my brand and matters to me quite a lot.

Pinterest had been my inspiration for a smile tattoos but maybe more of the 'dream smile' on my forearm. "We should get matching tattoos" George says. I know he's joking though, he'd cry if he ever got a tattoo and isn't really interested in that kinda thing anyways, "Come with me to get a tattoo, I'll need your support." He nods and giggles.

I sit on a leather bed used to lay on when tattooed. George sits beside me as we wait for the tattoo artist to get her equipment ready. My hands shake lightly, sweat drips from my forehead and my heart beats fast, faster then I'd ever run, faster then any Olympian.

George must notice because he grabs my hands and holds it, preventing them from continuing to shake. "You'll be okay, you idiot" he jokingly says swaying our hands. I hesitantly nod, fear practically radiating off of my body.

I'm so nervous to get my first tattoo and the pain I'm going to experience. "What if it hurts?" I stutter. He rubs his thumb on my hands. "You'll be okay" I don't know if I believe him but he speaks once more, "you can hold my hand if you want" he says looking away from me with blush along his cheeks.

I squeeze George's hand as the needles slowly penetrates my skin. Tears well up in my eyes and slowly fall down my cheeks and onto my clothes. "Your gonna be ok" George whispers, giving my hand a quick squeeze in response. I can see amounts of blood form above my newly tatted skin.

I don't want to cry, especially not in front of George but I'm glad he came. After what feels like forever, she wraps my arm in glad wrap to prevent infection and we return to the car. "That looks sick!" George attempts to hype me up even with clear tear stains down my cheeks.

"Thank you" I say. He nods and begins to laugh, "we should have made that a vlog, it would be such a good title,
'DREAM GETS A TATTOO (he cried)' don't you think? That would get so many clicks." He says continuing to laugh. I laugh too even with tear in my eyes. "It looks good though, I'm like, proud of you for getting it I guess. Even if you cried" George says trying to be serious for a second. I smile at him, I nod and begin to drive.  "Thank you for coming with me" I say shy. He nods and responds, "yeah well I came because I like you, so" he says avoiding eye contact. I love George especially when he attempts to be a little more nice then usual. He's so sweet and I'm glad we've been friends for as long as we have. I love the way my tattoo looks when it heals and looks a little less red, I'll be sure to tweet it.
