Blood Drawn

Introduction:

As Ri walked down the road, scouring her phone and then the rows of seemingly endless shops it seamed she would never find the piercing shop she was searching for, The Bloody Mary, renowned for being one of the only piercing shops in town to perform procedures in alternate areas, such as your nose, or as Ri wanted, the cartilage of your ear. Finally, she spotted the dark exterior of the shop, red cursive font spelling out- The Bloody Mary. She pushed against the heavy door and entered the thick atmosphere of the store.

As soon as she stepped inside the air seamed to choke her, shining through the heavy air was a beaming smile. As Ri adjusted her eyes she noticed that the smile belonged to a insanely handsome faced, red haired man. As he leaned against the desk entering consumers into the store.

"Hey, you. Are you here for a tattoo or piercing?" He remarked in a upbeat voice
"Oh, a piecing" you mutter back, nervous at how confident the man was, as you started to shuffle forward, a dark haired man shoved past you and started complaining loudly to the red haired man.
"Hoseok, how many times must I tell not to take my job, get of my seat"
The man walked over and looked over Hoseok, the scowl on his face making Hoseoks smile shine even brighter.
"Buuutt.. Yoongi... you were doing a piercing... you know I love greeting customers" Hoseok whined, sticking his bottom lip out in a pout and gesturing over to you.
"Yeah, but it's the only other job I have so get up." Yoongi snapped back, shoving a disgruntled Hoseok out of his worn, leather chair.
"Ok, what d'you want" Yoongi bluntly asked
"Oh, a piercing" you muttered
"Ok" Yoongi typed out something on a heavily used computer keyboard and squinted at the screen for a seccond
"Ok, so I just need you to fill out this form Yoongi mummed, scooting it back to a bored Yoongi, scrollling on his phone. Yoongi then took your sheet and added two more on top of the pile, handing them to you he said
"Take a seat and Jimin will be out in a second... he's going to be your piercer today."
You sat down on the ripped leather sofa filling a corner of the room and flicked through the information, the room was silent impart from the occasional tapping at a keyboard or the turning of sheets.
"Jimins the best" Yoongi broke out
"He has insane accuracy and I promise it's going to look amazing. Do you know what your going for"
You shrugged, honestly you hadn't even thought about what style of piercing to go for.

After several long minutes, a short man with black hair and tinted red lips came out, he had several piercings in one ear and a touch of eye makeup that suited him better then it ever would you. You sighed at him effortless beauty and assumed he was Jimin before he spoke out and confirmed your thoughts
"I'm Jimin!" He remarked joyfully, holding out a hand to greet you, he had a large smile much like Hoseoks, however his also effected his eyes, he also had the same cheery deposition. Yoongi lifted his hand to say goodbye and left you as Jimin guided you to the piercing room on the other side of the shop.

As you stepped inside you smelt the strong odour of disinfectant, giving away the fact that even though the room was dark and decorated in a gothic fashion, it was sanitary and getting a pricing here would not cause infection. After Yoongi's assurance that Jimin was the best you felt strangely comforted as you knew he truly meant what he had said.

Walking in, Jimin gestured to a dented leather table in the middle of the room, you sat down as Jimin handed you a display of various piercings, while happily ripping open packets of gloves and cleaning supplies to clean the needle he was holding, he started talking
"So, do you want a peticular style?" He asked, placing the gloves on his hands
"Maybe a little stud or gem."
He walked over to a small display case and placed it in your lap. All the peircings were extremely intricate and you guessed tbey would cost a lot.
Wincing at the thought you noticed Jimin was looking at you
"It wont hurt" he said
"Im the best so you can calm down and wait till you have an amazing peircing" his tone suggested that he had complete faith in what he was doing. You picked a intricate gem that was framed in wire that created a unique symbol on top.
"That one?" Jimim asked as your finger floated over the earring
"Its one of a kind made by a peircer here" Jimin took it out of the case and started to clean it.

Nerves grew in your stomach as you realised one thing...
You were kind of afraid of needles.

Jimin sat down on a small stool and asked you to sit up straight on the leather table as he scooted it towards you.
"Ok, now this isn't going to hurt at all, ok? It's just like a cat scratch" he reassured. But you have cats, you know too well how much just one cat scratch can hurt. Jimin came in closer and with complete concentration held the needle to your ear. Pausing for a moment longer he stared at your ear and then without any warning drew the needle into your ear with some force.
"Oh, oh god no!" He said, his previously calm voice rising.
"Ok, now don't.. move.." he muttered, as he turned around to grab some cotton wool you glanced at your ear in a nearby mirror and shouted in fear, gushing out of your ear was a waterfall of blood, pouring onto your previously light grey shirt.
"Ahhh! What did you do" you shouted out
"Yoongi said you were the best.. that you were precise" you shouted, as you spotted an increasingly angry and sympathetic Jimin in the corner of the room, desperately trying to open a packet of sanitary cotton wool. His facial expression was a terrifying shift from the calm, reassuring smile before. Now a twisted display of his interior emotions he suddenly got up and threw the packet across the room.
"You know what.. I give up" he said, marching towards you he suddenly bent down and licked your ear, removing some of the existing blood, at that his eyes turned a deep red, his skin grew paler and each vein in his face could be seen. You thought he was going to throw up due to the fact he just injested the blood seeping from your ear but instead he bent down and continued to consume the blood pouring out of your ear. Bemused at the current events you had be frozen in shock, suddenly coming to your senses you shoved him away from you, screaming "What the fuck!?!?" You grabbed at your now deep red shirt and started to dab at your bloody ear. "What the ACTUAL FUCK?" You shouted, glaring at Jimin, who was now facing away from you, staring at the wall
"CAN YOU TELL ME WHY THE FUCK YOU DID THAT, YOONGI SAI..." as you shouted you got cut off by Jimin rapidly turning round and glaring at you, his blood red eyes gleaming, he dashed forward and you covered your bloodied ear, but instead he turned and bit deep into your shoulder, forcing you to relax your shoulders...
