Listen, Little Kitten [COMPLETE]

Ink. Painful ink.

Your heart is in your throat and your hands are shaking as the woman flips her long black hair over her shoulder and applies the stencil to your leg, checks it for it's position as you stand and the muscles move under your skin, nods in approval and asks you to lay on your left side so she can start.

Yoongi pulls up a chair as you lay down and crosses his arms leaning on the reclined chair you're laying on and rests his chin on his folded arms, inches from your face.

"Don't be scared. We're all here for you."
"Only three of you. Not all of you, not that I care." You laugh nervously as the buzz starts and you know it's about to happen. Your palms are sweaty and you feel sick with nerves.
"Look again." Yoongi suggests and you turn your head a little and see all six of the boys stood there, waving and smiling at you.

"After this, you'll be one of us Kitten. It's a safer place to be than a regular family, that I can promise you. It's a bigger more loyal family than any you've ever met." Yoongi grins as you turn your head back to him.

"So does this mean you'll be nicer to me?"
"You've still gotta work, and you'll always piss us off because your female. But we'll try." He answers honestly and Jimin comes over and offers a hand out and you look at him confused.

"I'm about to start." The woman said bluntly and you quickly grasp Jimin's hand and he chuckles.

The needle touches your blank, pale skin and you intake a sharp breath and squeeze Jimin's hand as he crouches down to a similar height to the reclined chair.
"Hey it's okay wimp. Wait till she scribbles the colour on. Then it'll hurt."
"Please don't. This is bad enough." You grit your teeth and watch as Jimin's tattooed hand holds yours, his inked thumb rubbing gently over your knuckles as he tries to sooth you.

You pass two hours and the buzzing stops, the outline is done, it's time for the colours. The boys are leaving and returning, holding your hands in shifts, bringing in snacks and drinks, pacing around out of boredom. Namjoon had a good chat and said he felt sorry for you, they all had ink small to start with and built up as they went, having to do seven hour to start for your first one in his words was 'a real shitting shame'. It didn't make you feel any better, didn't ease the burning sensation in your thigh either.

After five hours you started to cry, the pain was unreal, you'd switched positions, fisted your hair, clenched your teeth, tried to distract yourself with your phone, tried to sleep or rest, sung to yourself, scrunched your hands and toes up, none of it worked anymore. Seeing you struggling Yoongi stood up, walked away and returned a moment later with a lollipop.

"M'not hungry Yoongi."
"Eat it. It'll help. It's pure sugar, you've had an adrenaline rush for five solid hours because of the pain, the sugar will help trust me babe. Eat it. You have to do what I say anyway. So eat the damn thing." He grumbled unwrapping it and shoving it in your mouth, he then held both your hands in his and with the boys help and a lot of tears and scrunched up toes you managed to finish the tattoo. It was now nearly nine at night.

You glanced at your leg and nearly collapsed. It was huge, taking up the entirety of the side of your thigh from your hip to your knee around the back and the front. You went to stand up to tug your jeans back on and nearly fell over.

"Jesus that hurts!" You yelled and the woman tutted.
"Of course it does. I don't know what you intend to wear home but you can't put those tight jeans back on. I'll cling film it and wrap it while your many boyfriends sort something lose for you to wear on your legs."

After much dithering Jungkook stripped off his T-shirt and handed it to you. You glance as his body then at him confused.
"It's big on me, it'll be huge on you. Like a dress..just wear it chick." He said dumping it in your hands and walking back to the others.

Using the toilet in the tattoo parlour you changed into the huge T-shirt and came out to wolf whistles and jokes, causing you to blush and hide your face. How mortifying.
"Come on. Let's go." Yoongi ordered and you started to limp out and Taehyung rolled his eyes and crouched infront of you.
"It's hurts to walk right? I'll give you a piggyback. Get on." He said in a brusque way and you gingerly climbed onto his back as his large hands clasped under your knees to keep you steady and he walked you back to the cars.

"Um, how much did this just cost?" You winced as the muscles on your leg moved under the tender skin.
"£1000, not much." Yoongi said nonchalantly and you nearly choke on your saliva. That's a lot to most people...

"Thanks for coming to support me guys." You mumble a little shy as Taehyung carries you.
"It's okay. You're one of us now."
"But lots of people have tattoos and they're not one of you." You reply looking at Namjoon and he winks at you as he lifts his T-shirt up showing you his back, it's a tattoo very similar to yours covering his whole back, Hoseok shows you his chest, he has one too.
"We all have Koi Carp? Why?" You ask and Yoongi looks at you.

"In ancient myths, it's said that koi travel upstream and when they reach dragons gate they turn into dragons and release their true potential. We're similar in a way, we're all like Koi, swimming aimlessly in life until we meet the right people and turn into something totally different, more powerful and free than you're average Joe. Get it?" And you nod. You understand now what makes you all a family, what meshes you together.
