The young girl whined in pain, gripping the seat tightly as the needle perched her skin with ink.
"Alright, we're all done. You did great for your first time. The gentleman at the front desk will help you with the payment. Hope you like it!" You say as you finished up and wrapped the girls leg. She gets off the table slowly, excited about her first tattoo."Yo Y/N! I think that was our last client for the day, I'm heading out do you need help closing the studio?" Your coworker Mingi says. "Ah don't worry about i'll close up for the day. Enjoy the rest of your night!" He gave a small smile and a nod while waking out the door. Ugh I'm drained, Mingi always leaves me to close up the shop, he's so careless. You began to close the register and clean up all the stations for the night. A small ring buzzed through your ear. Someone had come in.
"U-Uh are c-closed? it's la-t-te but this is only time I'm come in ." A man said in a faint tone, he sounded like a foreigner, his grammar wasn't the best. I want to drill the tattoo gun into my head. Of course we're closed it's almost midnight. Mingi said there was no more costumers for the day, he's so dead. You thought to yourself. "Unfortunately we are closed sir, you'll have to le-" You turned around at a loss of words for the man you saw. He was a decently tall handsome man, he had dark brown hair that laid on top of his forehead. And wore a nice fitted sweater with a heavy coat"A-Are you
L/N Y/N? good Korean t-tattooist" He stuttered, his pronunciation sounded very muffled. "Yes I am, do you have an appointment?" You questioned the man while walking towards the front desk. "name?"
"Kim Taehyung" he said in response."D-Do speak Korean? English no good." he hesitated asking the question. "I do, so Taehyung do you have a scheduled appointment with me or any other artist?" You said in korean while looking through your clipboard of scheduled appointments.
"No I don't, I'll only be in America for another few days and I really want get a tattoo. I heard you're a really good tattooist so I looked at a bit of your work and I would really like to get something done from you." The man fidgeted with his fingers. Damn I really wanna go home and sleep, my hands are cramped and i'm not supposed to give someone a tattoo after closing hours and without a set appointment, we don't do walk ins. But this dude seems super sweet and is good looking I can't just say no. "I guess I can fill you in, since you did say it was your last day few in America. Just sign some papers and show me what you want and i'll do it." You said and handed him a clip broad and a pen. He sat down and signed the papers as you got your area ready for his tattoo. It better not be big or i'm gonna legit drill this tattoo gun in my head.The man finished the paper work and was ready for his tattoo. "You can sit down right here sir, what are you looking on getting today?" You asked. He pulled out his phone and showed a drawing of what he wanted. It was a nice drawing, it fit his aesthetic. It had the word "forever" in hangul and spider lily's around it and then the date June 13th. I'm pretty sure it had some type of special meaning to it. It wasn't to big or two small. He wanted it right on his forearm, it was acutely a very gorgeous tattoo. He sat down placing his arm out. You cleaned it and prepared the sketch. "Taehyung... I've heard that name before. I once had a young girl come in asking for a tattoo that resembled a boy group. She went on and on about each members. If I remember well I think there was a Taehyung in that group." You said while pulling the sketch paper off his forearm and grabbing the tattoo gun.
"oh...well actually i'm apart of a boy group called BTS, have you heard of them? we're really popular around the world. We're currently on our love yourself tour in America we have our last concert in a few days. So I thought it would be nice to get a tattoo to remember it ." He said. You began dipping the gun in the ink and started to place the ink on his skin. "If it hurts you can always tell me stop." You said in a calm tone. She's kinda cute, she's very focused even at this late of night. I wanted to get it done by her because I knew she was good. He thought to himself. "Ah no it doesn't hurt at all, I imagined the pain being awful but it's nothing to what I expected." You let out a small laugh.
"So you're an idol? I have many girls come in asking for BTS tattoos. You're very popular, I guess you have many fans. Does your company know you're getting a tat?" You dipped your gun in the ink once more and placed it on his skin. His skin is soft and works well with the ink, it's rare that I get these type of people. "Ah no my company doesn't know that i'm getting this, I just hope they don't get mad at me. But yeah we have a huge fan base we call them army, I love them dearly." Its nice to take to someone who doesn't treat me like a famous idol but treats me as a regular human in society. Sometimes I wish I could walk freely and have normal conversations like this. "Is there a meaning behind your tattoo? If you're okay sharing." You asked while focusing on the hangul part of the tattoo. "Yeah, I wanted the word "forever" to resemble that the memories I've made with my group members will always be something I cherish forever and the June 13th is the date of debut which means a lot to me."
"Wow so this tattoo has such a special meaning behind it, I like it" You said putting down your gun.
"Well it's all done, I'll put the wrap on and give you instructions on what to do with it." You wiped the last of the ink off and wrapped his forearm. You threw your gloves off and walked over to the counter with Taehyung to pay. "Wow Y/N this looks amazing, you did such a great job thank you!" You simply smiled back at him "thank you, I enjoyed doing it." He gave you his card and payed. "Sorry for making you stay so late but this means a lot." Taehyung said while you swiped his debit card. "Oh don't worry about it i'll make sure to check some of your guys songs out, I'll give you my company card so you can contact me if you have any questions about your tattoo or you could always contact me to set up an appointment in the future.""Yes for sure, i'll make sure I have you do my tattoo if I decide to get another one in the future. Thank you Y/N have a great rest of the night, get home safely." He nodded and waved goodbye while walking out the door.
"Thank god I can finally leave and sleep." You whined and closed the studio and left for the night.
