Jesse's POV:

*FLASHBACK*

Her giggles filled the bathroom as she tried to hide her body from me. She was in the bath tub full of bubbles, her black hair up in a bun. I sat next of the tub, flicking water, occasionally popping bubbles.

"I want a tattoo," Zoe spoke up making me stop and look at her. "What?" I said turning to her. Her face was scrunch up in concentration, as her fingers grazed my arms. I felt a blazing trail with her touch.

"I don't know. Something small, yet meaningful," she smiled looking up at me. I sigh starring at her wrists. My index fingers slowly graze her scars. "No."

Her greens eyes scrunch up. "Why not?" she said her bottom lip pouted. I bite my lip.

She grabs my chins making me stare at her. Her fingers slowly cradling my face. "Speak." I chuckle a little at her look of determination.

"I like your skin without any mark. Innocent at most," I said, sounding dumb. I peek a look at her and her face is in thought. "But it is marked," she mumbled looking down at where my finger was still on her wrist. I shake my head.

"Zoe. I like how you are. How you came. I don't want you marking yourself with ink. These scars are meaningful, to me at least." I narrowed my eyes at her. I see her sigh and sink a little in the water. "Fine," she grumble.

"Stop hiding from me," I said smiling at her. She grins sinking lower submerging in. I smirk as I get in the tub splashing water outside. I lay in the bottom as she floated on top of me. Her body facing up.

"I'll always fine you. Always."

*END OF FLASHBACK*

I stare at her as she sits in front of the water fountains, where we first met. A small faint smile appears on my lips.

"Always."

Zoe's POV:

I stare at the tattoo parlor across the street. It seems as just ages ago, that I gave it a thought to a tattoo. I chuckle a little at the thought.

I continue walking as i settle back next to Danny. "So this is my first time visiting New York, and I have to say the view is amazing," Danny said looking up at the buildings in awe. I realize how much I've missed it too. I look up mocking her gesture.

It was night so Times Square was lit up with lights. The night becoming much beautiful. I take a deep breath nodding. "You're right."

For the first time, I feel my words true, with no toxic in my system. Just pure happiness to forget about the battles in my head. I feel laughter escape from me, a few tears spilling from eyes.

"Oh god, Zoey! Are you okay?" Daniela asks me turning to me. I nod smiling widely.

"I'm just happy. At least for the moment."
