"What are you gonna get?" I ask, flipping through the tattoo designs on display "doesn't this look cool" he pointed to a lion tattoo on someone's hand. I nodded "yea..I like it.." I reply

"Have you decided what you are gonna get?" He questioned, his hand finding the small of my back. I felt goosebumps grow at my skin, "Yea...I kinda want a butterfly" I point to one of the detailed black and white butterflies

"Alright, who's going first?" One of the tattoo artists came over to us. I looked to josh worriedly, he smiled down to me "I'll go" he stated, taking my hand, leading me over to where the tattoo artist wanted him to sit

He sat down on the chair, resting his arm on the stand. "The hand is definitely one of the sorest places to get it done..yours won't hurt as much" the artist looked up to me briefly

I sighed in relief "I can do yours if you want?" Another tattoo artist came out of the spare room. My eyes shot back to josh who gently nodded his head. I swallowed, nodding to the tattoo artist sitting in the chair beside josh

I sat down to the right of him, getting my right arm tattooed while he got his left hand done. The tattoo artist laid the stencil on my upper arm, showing me what it looked like in the mirror "I love it!" I squealed

She chuckled, watching as I sat back down in the chair. She started the tattoo machine, pressing lightly on my skin "is this your first?" She asked. I nodded, "can you tell?" I say through gritted teeth

She laughed again, giving me a small nod. I looked over to josh, catching his eyes at the same time. He extended his right arm out to me, holding my hand in the middle of the chairs "does it hurt?" He asked

I nodded "yes 1000 times yes" I mumble. "You?" I ask. He nodded too, visibly sucking in a deep breath. I turned back, watching as she tattooed my arm, focusing on my breathing as best as I could

after about two hours, she sat up from leaning down to my arm "we done?" I ask. She nods "yup! All done!" She smiled. I stood up, looking at it in the mirror and instantly falling in love with it "I love it!" I squeal happily

"Give us a look" Josh spoke from behind me. I turned around, showing him the tattoo. "Very nice, love" he smirked. I sat back down while she wrapped up the tattoo in clear wrap, waiting another half hour or so for josh's to be done

"Ah shit..didn't think that one through" he looked down to his hand once we had reached the car "I'll drive" I replied. He looked to me cautiously "you want to drive my baby Bentley" he asked shocked

I shrugged "yes! I know how to drive a car!" I laugh. He sighed, handing me the keys "drive slow" he pointed to me. I put my hands up in defence, getting into the car and turning on the ignition

"Where am I going too?" I ask "I'm feeling like ice cream" he smirked. I nodded, driving to the nearest ice cream parlour I could find "strawberry please!" I ask the lady behind the counter

She nods, scooping the frozen treat into a tub "uhh I'll have this funky one" Josh pointed to some rainbow mix up of colours. I laugh at his words, sitting sliding into the booth at the back of the shop

"Had a good night?" He asked politely. I nodded, "I did, thank you..I can't wait to open for you" I smile. His eyes widened, "so your gonna do it?!" He asked

I nodded "yea..it'll be fun" I reply "of course it will! No back up dancers to replace you over here" he chuckled warning a laugh from me.
