"I don't care mum" I yell while stomping up the stairs

"Summer Marlee Harris you are not by any chance getting a tatoo!"

"Uuhhhhhhh" I moan loudly, slamming my door, I'm going to get a tatoo on my wrist of the sun, you know me and sunny days! And Meg has already decided on a four-leaf clover behind her ear. Coming to think of it why the hell did I tell my mum?!

I jump on my bed and tune the radio in my nightstand. I haven't heard the song that is playing before, oh I know it's those British boys, everyone was crazyy about them in Australia, I don't really like them, not my type. A beeping sound escapes my phone,

Meg: Ready?

Summer: I'm not sure anymore. JKS can't wait see ya there

Meg: bye xx

Summer: Xx

I grab my phone and bag and rub my wrist where my tattoo will soon be. I head to the door,

"Summer where do you think your going?" Mum inquires

"Only the library, I have a history project"

"Ok sweetie, study hard!"

I slide past the door grinning, I got those skills, I got those skills, I got those skills. I pull out my black umbrella, holding it above me. The tattoo shop is meant to be two blocks away, I turn left, now walking straight, now right, I end up at my house on the corner, I might need google maps for this ten minute walk!

When I finally reach the shop, Meg looks up impatiently

"I thought you lived close, Summer"

"I got lost!"

We walk into the shop, with it's dimmed lights, green walls and posters full of designs, a boy turns the corner and stands behind the counter, he looks our age, tall, got a couple tattoos, I'm suddenly nervous

"Ello ladies, here for a tat?"

"Yep" Meg answers confidently

"Love don't worry, you won't feel anything" the man says looking at me

"Oh, I'm not nervous, haha, yea, no" I say smiling

The boy just grins

"Ok, follow me around the back"

We both shuffle behind him

"You know your going first right?" I whisper in Meg's ear

"That's what I wanted, to show you how brave I am" she replies in a weird tone

She relaxes in the bright purple chair,

"Perfect, now what do you want" the boy asks pointing at the posters

"I was thinking a four-leaf clover behind my ear" Meg replies pointing to her ear

"Like the Irish Luck hey?"

"You could say that" she says blushing

I watch in fear, shutting my eyes tightly

"I love it!" Meg screams hugging the artist

"Ready....." He and Meg say in time

"Let's do this"

I shake nervously in the chair, the whole time I am gritting my teeth and squeeze me eyes closed, I can hear Meg's ridiculous laughing at my reactions. When it's done, I look at my wrist and a huge grin shows on my face

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!!" I squeal

"It was a pleasure girls, I'm Zayn"

"Meg"

"Summer"

"Your the best Zayn, thank youuu" we both say happily walking towards the door

"Bye!!"

We both walk in silence, Meg talking to that boyfriend of hers and me looking at my new tatoo, I love it!!!!

We stand outside of my house, hug, say our goodbyes and then turn into our different directions. As I am about to open the door I pull the sleeve of my jumper over my wrist

"How was the library"

"Mum I really hate history" I say smiling to myself

I run up to my room turn on my radio again, do some dancing around the room to what I found out was 1D. I think I suddenly like them.
