Tattoos

Calum was sitting on the bed watching some random TV show while I was searching for tattoos. I have always wanted one, and seeing how good they looked on calum it made me yearned for one. I had an idea of what I wanted and where I wanted it, but deep down I wanted more. "Are you looking at tattoos?" Calum questioned letting out a light laugh. I spun around to see him laughing at me. 

"Yes, I think I would look cool with a tattoo." I argued 

"Oh, I'm not doubting you'd look pretty hot with one, but I just can't see you getting one." 

"What's that supposed to mean?" I asked giving Calum a glar as to say choose your words carefully. 

"You're just so innocent I can't imagine you getting a tattoo." He admitted smirking a little. 

"Uh!" I gasped. "I am getting a tattoo." 

"When?" He questioned rasing his thick eyebrow. 

"Today." I stated standing up from the chair and grabbing my car keys dragging my doubtful boyfriend behind me.

Calum hopped in the car with me and now we were both at the tattoo parlor. Walking up to the register I waited patiently for a large tattooed man to appear from behind the dark curtain. He was large and bald covered in tattoos which was pretty intimidating. "What can I help you with little miss?" He asked sketching something down on a sheet of paper. 

"I was wondering if I could get a tattoo please?" 

He hesitated to answer, I guess he thought I was joking as well. "Sure, do you have a sketch or would you like to pick a design from the wall." 

"I was thinking about this." I said handing him the sheet of paper. The man looked examined it and took in the design that I had drawn out. 

"Did you draw this?" He asked raising an eyebrow. 

"Yeah, it drew it. My aunt recently passed away and she was in love with dream catchers so I wanted to draw a smaller, original one." 

"Alright, come on over here and take a seat we'll get you started."  I took a seat in the black leather chair that frightened me a little. The man readied the ink and began to mark my ankle. I winced a little at the pain, but other than that it wasn't too bad. "You're all finished." He grunted blowing cold air on the tattoo. "Whatta think?" He asked watching me peer over at my ankle looking at my new tattoo. 

"Oh my God! I love it!" I exclaimed getting excited at the sight of my new tattoo. "Whatta think Cal?" I wondered flexing my ankle towards him. 

"It's super hot." Calum smiled at me and I gave the man a look of reassurance. He covered up my new ink. I paid and went back to the apartment.

I was feeling pretty tired after we got back so I decided to lounge around for the rest of the day just relaxing on the couch. Calum walked out of the bedroom in a tight t-shirt with a snap-back which to be honest made him look 100 times more attractive than he already is. "Alright, I'm going out to the gym." He stated grabbing his keys off the counter. I realized my fit boyfriend and yes I had gone for runs, but maybe it was time I hit the gym as well. "Wait, let me get changed, I'll come with you." I jumped up from the couch tying back my hair and putting on some track shorts with a matching sports bra. Clum started the ignition and took off and after a few minutes pulling into a parking space and entering the gym. Calum signed us in and headed towards the weights where as I headed for the stair climber. We did our own things for a while. "Do you wanna do sit-ups together? I can spot you." He said laying down onto a mat. I kneeled down gripping his running sneakers as he sat up counting and breathing out every time. "You're really going fast." 

"Yeah, that's cause of my motiviation." Calum breathed out while continuing to motion through his sit ups. 

"And what would that be?" I asked cocking my eyebrow. 

"Every time I come up I get to see your clevage." He said trying to hide the smile peeking through. 

"Calum!" I yelped flicking his head and making a grossed out face once I felt how sweaty he truly was. 

"Your turn." I leaned back began doing the sit-up's counting to myself. I was going at a pretty fast rate and kept pushing through the pain that was beginning to form in my stomach. I could feel the sweat forming once I had pushed out 100 of them. I stood up grabbing weights and starting on some squats while Calum did his own thing. I could feel his eyes watching me. "What are you staring at?" I asked breathing heavily. 

"Your ass." He admitted continuing to stare at the little inch of my butt peaking through my shorts as I went into a squatting position. I placed the weights back on the rack and picked my water up off the ground taking a sip. Calum however was still staring at me and shaking his head. 

'What's wrong?" 

"Watching you sweat and seeing your nice ass pop out of those shorts. It's uh... really turning me on." I grinned and shook my head at the fact that he was so turned on by the way I was working out. But honestly, seeing his stomach and tattoos soaked with his sweat was honestly turning me on as well. Stay strong Alana. I reminded myself. As Calum walked closer and closer my breathing was becoming shorter and shorter. Exhale. Exhale! Calum tried to kiss me but I turned away not wanting this to turn into anything else, since I knew how turned on the both of us were.

Feeling all fresh and clean (hahaha so fresh and so clean clean) Calum and I were snuggled up on the couch watching one of our favorite movies. American Pie. In the middle of it, my phone had buzzed so checking to see who it was, I clicked on the link which Crystal had sent me. It led me to a webpage that had a picture of Calum and I walking into the gym. This little picture made me smile since we were getting so much publicity and it wasn't even a lie anymore. I like Calum, like a lot, and it was easy being around him and getting more people to read my book. "What's that?" Calum asked pointing to the photo pulled up on my phone. 

"It's a picture of us from today at the gym." I said smiling up at him. 

"We make a pretty good couple don't we?" 

"We sure do." A couple. Never did I think I was ever going to say that, especially about Calum Hood. Not only did I think we looked good together, but other people did too. I was truly and genuinley happy to be with Calum.
