The Bucket List (Niall Horan)

6. Matching tattoos

(A/N SO HERE IS THE NEXT CHAPTER! THE FIRST THING ON THE LIST WHOOP! ENJOY! REMEMBER TO VOTE AND COMMENT TO LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK!)

*Niall's POV*

It was about 11am and I was waiting in the lobby of Bluebell Wood, waiting for Kacey to come down.

I checked my watch 5 minutes later and realised she still wasn't here.

It's like she heard me because seconds later she was next to me, tapping me on the shoulder.

I spun on my heel to come face to face with a beautiful girl who goes by the name Kacey. She really is gorgeous. I don't think I've ever felt this way about a girl before.

"You ready to go?" I asked

She nodded eagerly before we walked out the double automatic doors and made our way to my car.

It was about a 20 minute journey to the tattoo parlour. So we made idle chit chat, jokes, sang along with the radio and had a good laugh.

"I was thinking" I started "How about we have a movie night? At your place, seeing as I won't get an empty house with the lads. You know, to get to know each other?" I asked hoping she would agree.

To my pleasure, she did and she looked pretty excited about it.

Minutes later, we arrived at the tattoo parlour. It was easy to find a parking space as it was pretty empty.

We walked in and I was immediately greeted by Jack, Zayn's tattooist.

"Alright Niall" He said giving me a bro hug.

"Hey mate" I replied "Jack, this is Kacey. Kacey, this is Jack"

They shook hands and greeted each other before Jack took us to a room full of tattoo ideas.

We browsed for about 15 minutes before we settled on one we both liked.

It was a ying yang.
We would have half each. I would have the bad in the good and Kacey would have the good in the bad.

Kacey was over the moon with it and couldn't wait to get it inked onto her skin.

We were getting it just a little bit down from out wrists. It looked awesome.

We flipped a coin to see who would go first and it turned out to be me.

I went and sat in the chair, putting arm on the table next to me so Jack could start.

I started to get scared when I saw the ink pen he used. It has like an engine on it. Holy shit!

About 10 minutes of pain later, it was finished. I looked at the art and smiled. There was a sticker sort of thing on top to cover it and it looked a bit red.

He gave me a tube of cream and told me to put it on twice a day. I nodded and jumped of the seat and made my way over to Kacey to show her.

She smiled and told me she loved it.
"You were such a pussy though. I bet it wasn't that sore" She winked

I pretended to look offended and gasped.
"Actually, it hurts like a bitch"

She shook her head and laughed before making her way over to where I previously was.

I watched as she got her tattoo done. How she sucked in a breath when it hurt and how she squeezed her eyes shut. How she gritted her teeth together when the pain shot up her arm. I admired everything she did.

Soon after, she walked over with the same tube of cream as I had.
"Doesn't hurt?" I joked

She laughed before she replied "Okay your right. I take that back" I laughed at her before hugging her and paying Jack.

We left the tattoo parlour and made out way back to Bluebell Wood to drop her off.

Today was a great but painful day.
