"A fucking crayon, that's your bright idea?"

"I'm not seeing the issue here."

"The issue is that it's a dumb ass idea!"

Jungkook and V were currently arguing over tattoo ideas for the oh-so-done ravenette.  He had officially come to the conclusion that V had no intentions on actually helping him and had settled on annoying him instead. 

"I already told you, you'd look good with whatever." V shrugged as he dropped onto a chair behind the front desk.

Jungkook rolled his eyes as he continued to look through the album of tattoo ideas.  As he turned the page, his eyes fell onto a skull and bones design. His eyes lit up, instantly knowing what he wanted.  He turned to V who was looking through his schedule for the day and cleared his throat to get his attention.

V looked up at the pretty ravenette with an eyebrow raised. "Yes, sugar?"

"I know what I want now." He responded, choosing to ignore the nickname.

V nodded as he got up to get sketch paper with Jungkook's eyes following him. "What is it?"

"I want a skull hand tattoo that's giving a rock n' roll sign." The tatted man gave a small chuckle, his hand instantly moving into action. "Edgy, I like it. Give me a sec."

Jungkook watched as the handsome man quickly but perfectly sketched his interpretation of what he said he wanted. Wrist flicking so smoothly over the paper, creating beautiful strokes of lead as it moves.  When he finished, he showed it to Jungkook whose eyes widened seeing the beautiful design. "How did you know this is exactly what I wanted?"

V shook his head. "I didn't. I just made a design I thought you'd like."

"Well it's seriously amazing. You're so talented." Jungkook was so busy looking at the sketch that he missed how V's eyes lingered on him for a moment. V shook his head to rid himself of his thoughts and pointed to a room in the back. "You can go in the back and wait for me to finish this stencil real quick. I'll be there in a minute."

Jungkook nodded and headed to the back room. It was small but comfy, it had black walls with bright paintings decorating them. He sat on the chair in the middle of the room and took out his phone for the first time today. He smiled as he noticed Taehyung had texted him.

Taehyung... he really makes Jungkook's heart race. They had gotten so close in such a short amount of time and he's been doing so much for Haejin. Jungkook knows that it's too early for him to be feeling this way, but he really does like this man.

While he was lost in his thoughts, V came into the room and sat down in his chair next to Jungkook, breaking the ravenette out of his thoughts. "So, where do you want it?"

A completely innocent question, of course, but it made Jungkook squirm in his seat a bit. V noticed this and inwardly smirked but remained silent.

"I want it on my right hip, please." Jungkook said as he looked into V's eyes a little shyly.

V gave him an amusing smile as he looked down at the ravenette. "Want me in your pants already, huh?"

Jungkook scowled and tried to kick V with his foot but the bastard moved away last minute. "You're so fucking annoying."

"And you love it." V winked at him as he gestured Jungkook to stand up.

Still a bit flustered, Jungkook stood up and faced the handsome tatted man in front of him. They locked eyes as V's hands moved to the button on Jungkook's pants making the ravenette even more flustered. V slowly unzipped Jungkook's pants, enjoying the ravenette's shy expression.  By this point, Jungkook was looking into V's eyes with furrowed eyebrows and slightly reddened cheeks, analyzing the other's slow and tedious movements.  He really shouldn't be allowing this, as he's involved with Taehyung, but something about this man makes his head spin.  The tatted man had finally decided to pull Jungkook's pants down slightly to the area Jungkook wanted and backed away to get some shaving cream. While V had moved away, Jungkook felt like he could breathe again. Sometimes V makes him feel suffocated. Nothing like Taehyung made him feel. Though they were twins, these two couldn't be more different. 

Jungkook didn't even notice that V had finished prepping the area while he was lost in his thoughts. He had already placed the stencil and was waiting for the ravenette to say if it looked good.

"Sugar."

Jungkook jumped slightly and looked back down at V. "You've gotta stop spacing out on me. Unless you're thinking about me, then feel free to keep dreaming but look in the mirror and tell me if that's good."  V added, amused by the pretty ravenette.

Jungkook rolled his eyes and walked over to the mirror to see the stencil sitting prettily on his hip.  "This is perfect V, thank you." A genuine smile spreading on his face as he glanced at V.  The tatted man looked at him for a moment and nodded, telling Jungkook to sit back in the chair.  He lowered Jungkook to fit his arm height and finished getting his station ready. When he finished, he locked eyes with Jungkook once again.

"Are you ready?"  Jungkook nodded and bit his lip.  Truthfully, he was a little nervous about the pain but he was even more nervous to be sitting here this intimate with V for an hour. Soon, the needles made their first contact of the day with Jungkook's skin. It didn't hurt much like he anticipated, it was a tolerable pain. He could honestly fall asleep during it.

Though, what a waste it would be to sleep instead of staring at the handsome Kim V, himself. The man was completely focused on the task at hand with his eyebrows furrowed, precisely coloring in the lines as he has done thousands of times before. Jungkook thought that this was probably the most sexy V has looked to him since they first met.

Not being able to handle the silence after about 20 minutes, Jungkook spoke up. "So, I know you're an artist but do you have any other hobbies?"

Without looking up from his work, V hummed. "Hmm, do I?"

Jungkook furrowed his eyes at that. "You're not gonna tell me?"

"What do I get in return, sugar?" V questioned, one eyebrow rising as it always does when he's amused.

At this point, Jungkook felt done before he even really started but he put on a smile hoping to convince the tatted man. "A healthy conversation?"

"Healthy and me don't mix. Now toxicity? That's good shit." 

Jungkook's face slowly fell as he looked at V. "It doesn't have to be that way, you know? You don't have to live your life the way others portray you to." He watches as V's face slowly morphs into a blank stare. "So many assumptions from you. Believe whatever you want to believe."

"I don't want to believe anything other than the truth you tell me. I genuinely want to get to know you V, seriously, and not just because I'm seeing your brother. I want us to be friends." Jungkook genuinely looks at V, trying to get any emotion out of him other than apathy. 

V stands up from his seat, eyes still carrying the same disinterest as before. He gently cleans Jungkook's freshly inked hip and wraps it.  "You're done now. I'm going to take a break. Leave, don't leave, whatever I don't really care." But before he leaves, he turns around looking at Jungkook with an indescribable expression. 

"And for the last time Jungkook. No, you don't."

Where my burnt out college students at? Shit's hard dudes.

On another note, I'm curious if anyone actually listens to the music I put at the beginning and if so, do you like it? What's your favorite song at the moment?

Love you all! Peace out, beauties 💕
