Hoseok's shaky hands hurriedly pushed the clearly marked 'pull to open' door at the front of the salon - almost landing his face flat into the glass. Shaking off the embarrassment, he swiftly made it through the doors only to notice a cute receptionist staring at him. Great.

Feeling his cheeks heating up, slightly sheepish, Hoseok made his way up to the counter and cleared his throat - as if he actually needed to get the receptionist's attention at this point. "Good afternoon, how can I help you?" the worker asked cheerfully, briefly flashing his dimples. He had a black and grey-scale bird tattooed along his neck as well as a tasteful eyebrow piercing - alongside other glistening metals in his ears and a sleek choker to top it all off.

"I'm here for an e-ear piercing" Hoseok just about uttered. "Okay, do you have an appointment?", Hoseok shook his head, "That's no problem, we're actually pretty dead right now as you can tell" the man laughed, gesturing towards the empty waiting room.

Hoseok only smiled, fidgeting with his fingers whilst he waited to fill out the necessary forms, jumping (only slightly) when the worker suddenly spoke loudly through his speaker phone; "Yoongi, got a client here to see you". He handed back the documents, only to find this Yoongi - similar in age to the man in front of him - stumbling into the reception.

"Hey, follow me kid. Thanks, Namjoon... if that newbie, Jeon, keeps getting more customers than me I'll be kicked out" he laughed roughly. The receptionist - Namjoon - simply waved him off. "Come on, I don't bite" Yoongi smirked, motioning for Hoseok to enter his office.

"I'm Yoongi, I'll be your piercer today, what's your name?" the slightly intimidating man asked - maybe this was the reason why that Jeon guy has more customers, Hoseok thought. "I'm Hoseok, I'm just here for a lobe piercing" he awkwardly smiled, wincing as he saw the man retrieve needles and other scary looking equipment. "Really? You're how old and haven't even gotten your lobes pierced?? Damn" Yoongi chuckled. "I'm 24... and I'll have you know I'm incredibly scared of ruining my ears" Hoseok pouted, covering them with his palms as if it would protect them from being pierced.

"Cute... then what changed your mind?" Yoongi asked, genuinely curious, "The modelling agency I work for got sick of buying clip ons for me" he frowned "The company thinks I have pretty ears for photography or something... I didn't know that when I signed up I'd have to permanently impale my poor skin!" Yoongi only smiled as Hoseok continue to whine - he was clearly nervous.

"Well, I promise it won't hurt, I'm very gentle believe it or not" Yoongi said, ushering Hoseok to sit down next to his spinning chair on what looked like a massage table. "Now, what do you want in it?" Hoseok's face twisted in confusion; " A...piercing?" Yoongi chuckled, shaking his head, "I meant, would you like a hoop? Or maybe a gold or silver stud? You know..." he gestured towards a box full of different little bags of piercings. "Oh, oh! Um... just a plain gold stud will do" Hoseok shrugged.

Yoongi gladly retrieved one of the plastic bags containing the right pair of studs, he then flashed them in front of Hoseok's face, showing him that the jewellery had been properly sterilised and packaged to prevent infection or contamination. "It's our policy" he sighed, once again showing Hoseok every piece of equipment which he would be using in order to prove that they were safe to be used.

Honestly, it did help ease Hoseok's nerves somewhat - googling 'piercing's gone wrong' last night really was a stupid idea.

"Alright, it'll just be a pinch" Yoongi muttered, sliding his chair closer to the table in order to grasp Hoseok's ear between his slender fingers - they were slightly cold from the amount of hand sanitiser he'd slathered onto his hands. He drew two dots with a marker pen, ensuring that they were even on either ear before retrieving his needle.

And Hoseok outright squealed.

"It's okay, man, really... you won't feel a thing" Yoongi rolled his eyes, about to lean forward again when he caught a glimpse of pure fear in Hoseok's eyes. "You should've brought someone with you, to hold their hand or something" he chuckled, cursing inwardly as those brown eyes flitted with hope for a second. "Nuh uh! You can't hold my hand, I need them to pierce your ears" he laughed, and Hoseok's shoulder's sagged, but he still nodded in understanding.

"But um... you can like hold my thigh or something I guess... You know, since I'm right in front of you, I wouldn't, um mind" he uttered out awkwardly, trying not to gasp as Hoseok's hands immediately flew to his thighs. "Thank you, I p-promise I'll keep still now" he smiled, looking to the left so that he wouldn't have to see the needle again.

Yoongi resumed his position, scooting forward, and brought the needle to his lobe - quickly piercing it through the skin (Hoseok tightened his grip on his thigh for a second) before replacing it with the gold stud. "See? That was nothing, right?" Yoongi grinned, clipping the back onto it before turning his head so that he could repeat his actions on the other ear.

"And~ Done!" he beamed, leaning over his desk in order to grab his hand mirror before showing Hoseok - who squealed much happier this time. "Aigoo~ they're perfect! Thank you so much!" he giggled, twirling the gold pieces. "Now they might feel hot for a while but that's normal, just the blood flowing through them. But you should clean them out at least once a day with salt and water" Yoongi informed him, jotting down some notes for Hoseok to take with him.

"I might have to get some more piercings done! I like really them" Hoseok smiled as he stood back up, preparing to leave when Yoongi suddenly thrust the note into his palm. "Make sure to ask for me then, next time you come in" he winked.

Hoseok blushed and so looked down to hide it, skimming over the crumpled piece of paper instead - only to notice a hastily scribbled phone number at the bottom of it. "I'd like to check out your modelling, see how well my piercing expertise is being showcased" he admitted with a smirk whilst opening the door for Hoseok.

"I'll be sure to credit you for your work, Yoongi-ah!" he chuckled, strolling back over to the receptionist in order to pay.

And, even though Namjoon made him feel slightly embarrassed with that knowing grin plastered on his face, Hoseok couldn't wait to come back. Yoongi even stayed by the door to wave him off - eager to find out more about his new favourite model.
