Secrets (h.s)

24

(Picture is Danny)

I sit in the chair with Danny bent over me. He's tattooing me and has a focused look spread across his face. I watch him, and watch him draw the tattoo on. He sighs and stops tattooing me. He looks up at me with a smirk.

"I can't concentrate when a beautiful girl keeps staring at me."

I blush and smile timidly. "Sorry."

All the boys sit in the waiting room, goofing around and laughing loudly.

It hurts less than I thought it would. The stick and poke I gave myself when I was 14 hurt more. I'm actually not bothered at all.

"So why are you getting this particular quote?"

I look back down to him and think.

"I'm not completely sure. I've just always liked it. And I think you should live life to its fullest potential and this is a good quote to live by doing that. Every time someone asks me to do something I'm scared of this is what I think. And now I'll be able to look at it."

He looks up at me strangely. His eyes flick back and forth between mine before he smiles without teeth.

"Good reason. Better than I have for a lot of my tattoos."

I chuckle. I look back up towards the boys and find Harry staring at me. I smile at him. He smiles back. I blush and I don't know why.

"You and Harry then?" Danny's voice interrupts me and I look down to him.

"No. Well... I guess I don't know."

He smiles and stops his work to look up at me.

"Don't know?"

I sigh and nod.

"He's confusing, that one."

"Tell me about it," I respond.

"How long have you known him?"

I frown. How long has it been? Couple months? Wow, that's a lot less than I thought. I feel so much for him and it's only been a few months.

"Couple months, I think. I only met the others a week ago though, but I heard about them all the time."

He smiled and said, "only a week? They must really like you then. They weren't even like this with me the first week I knew them."

I blush and nod with a wide smile on my face. I look up at look over all of them, Harry still looking at me, and say, "yeah I guess."

"I can see why though. Pretty girl like you, why wouldn't they?"

I snap my head back down to him and blush even more. I smile timidly and look at my lap. He places his palm on my thigh and says, "don't be shy."

I look him in the eyes with a blank face and next thing I know all the boys are next to us.

"Almost done?" I hear Harry.

I look up and see him looking at me with a tense jaw. All of a sudden Danny's hand still resting on my thigh feels like it's burning a hole in me.

I look down to arm and see he only has to do the question mark.

"Almost," I say back and smile up at Harry.
