NAMJIN 2: Tattoos

Every day, Namjoon always liked but hated the people who go to him, which most of his customers looked like douche bags.

Tattoos were fascinating to him. He felt like it was his religion.

He was influenced by his father when he was in college, looking for money to pay his rent and his tuitions. Once he got the job from assistant to the owner, his life was on tattoos.

He puts his life story on his body through tattoos. He felt like tattoos were the only way for him to communicate to others about his life.

Although, slowly he gets bored. He wants to make more tattoos, but only little customers go to him and he has no space for big tattoos on his body. He doesn't feel inspired all the sudden.

*ding*

"A customer..? On a Monday? Huh."

He thought it was another douche bag wanting a spider or a skull tattoo, but...his face doesn't look like a douche. He looks like a rookie in the tattoo world.

"Hey. I am just here to get my first tattoo."

First? I mean, he looks like a young adult so he decided he won't make a budge about it.

"So, what do you want as for your first tattoo?"

He tried to catch his eyes, but Namjoon forgot that he was shirtless, tattoos of his story were shown to him.

"Oh..uhm...sorry. I-I was a bit fascinated by y-your art on your b-body.."

"Oh. Well, I should be sorry for forgetting about wearing my shirt, as if it is the number 1 rule here."

Finally, he covers his story with a shirt, going back to the business.

"Well, since I can see some tattoos that I like on your arm, I would like a flag and a heart rate."

"Okay. What kind of flag?"

The South Korean flag was the first thing that came to mind for Namjoon, but apparently, that is not what the other male thought.

"A pride flag. I want it as a dedication to my best friend. He was bullied by him being gay and he got shot. He almost survived, but forgot that he also had lung cancer that causes him to his death."

A deep story shot Namjoon in the heart. He was saddened by the story of the other male. He was actually lost for words.

"I...don't really know what to say. I feel so bad..I-I'm sorry."

"You don't need to be sorry, you know. It is not your fault. The polices found the guy and arrested him, which he is in this Anti-Gay community of some sort."

The aura of the store felt so sad. Both of them felt so emo now.

"Hey newbie. Don't be so saddened by it. I know it was a very hard lost and I know that feeling. A guy like you should be happy so he can look at you and be happy with the decisions you make and where you are in life. Maybe this tattoo will really cheer you up."

Namjoon decided to go in front of the counter and hugged him. Why did the other male felt something? He can't quite explain it through his brain.

~~~

How many minutes passed by, Namjoon is now putting on the tattoo. Each loud buzz you can hear the other male screaming a little loud through the small pillow in his mouth.

He decided to put his tattoo on his wrist. Namjoon was giggling like a minute after a minute because of the unintentional cute expression the other male makes.

Both of them just would laugh at some points of the tattoo making.

Namjoon can see tears pouring from the other because of his first time. He wipes off the tears which made the other blush in a peach-pink tint.

~~~

"Just leave it about how many weeks and you can remove the plastic around it."

"But, can I see it before putting the plastic?"

He quickly searched for a mirror so he can show the other about the tattoo.

The tattoo was in a black colored heart rate, with a heart colored in a rainbow to represent the gay flag, and shaded it with a bit of black.

The other's eyes sparkled and squealed in the happiness of his first tattoo.

"대박! It looks amazing! Wait...what is this at the bottom?"

A quote was below the heart rate.

"A quote that was in my mind whenever someone's death has occurred."

"Even if you what's coming, you're never prepared for how it feels."

The other just felt like crying. He flings his arms and hugged Namjoon. Namjoon hugged back at the tearing man.

"Thank you so much...is there any way for me to thank you?"

"No need. I don't receive anything from anybody so no need."

Though, the other refused his statement.

"Thank you! Oh, by the way. My name is Kim SeokJin."

"Oh. Both of us are in the 'Kim's."

"Yup. Before I leave..."

He quickly ran to Namjoon, cupping his head and kissed him.

Talk about a first kiss, Namjoon. He can feel the heat rising up to his cheeks.

Both of them waved goodbye and went on their lives.

Namjoon looked at the counter to see a card sitting there.
"Here, call me if you like:
+86600-000-0000
Would like to talk to you again~! :))"
The handwriting looks so adorable for Namjoon to handle.

He looks at the window to see Jin still there, looking at Namjoon. He smiled at him, having his dimples to be free towards Jin and he smiled back.
