And here we have chapter 3. I'm trying to make sure that the outline of this story is set up before I have my exams and can't write as much as what I would like. I noticed a few people demanding some JovenCorn in this story and I have to say that I'm not really ready to introduce any pairings this early on so, pairings may happen some time in the future... Maybe...However I never said anything about flirting... (grins magically)

DISCLAIMER: I think you get the point now

Davina's POV

After having embarrassed myself, I realized that it was nothing compared to what was going to happen pretty soon... In two days to be exact. The friend I have in the Marines is getting deployed to Afghanistan sometime next week and had reminded me about getting those tattoos. Yes, I had agreed to it as it would be a waste not to see what I had been doodling for the past couple of days. Its gonna look pretty awesome when its done.

It's a unicorn, with a rocket launcher on its back and a laser instead of a horn. Its gonna look wicked on my shoulder, but I'm really worried that it will hurt a lot or that I'll take one look at it and hate it instantly regret it. I didn't really know anyone who actually had any tattoos... Until I saw Joven's arms.

We were just walking along to a meeting, myself and Joven, laughing at some bad joke Joven made. It was completely unexpected when he raised his left arm and I saw, what I thought were Chinese characters, I was later told by Sohinki (Matt, that's his new nickname) that they are Japanese characters. Joven noticed my staring and looked at his wrist and smiled. He then winked at me (!) and flipped over his other wrist. And to my horror and amazement, there were a set of fangs staring at me.

"That must have hurt like a bitch!" I whispered in awe and shock, "How the fuck did you manage not to scream or not to punch the guy in the face?" I lightly touched the tattoo on Joven's wrist, how did he manage to stay still to get them?

"Yeah most tattoos hurt. All mine did." He said, smile growing bigger.

"All?" I asked with childlike ignorance. Joven chuckled at my naïvety, telling me that he had more than two tattoos and that they weren't just on his arms. All have different, personal meanings. I looked into the lensed eyes that belonged to the man I had come to call my friend and felt a calmness that I had never felt in my life flow through my veins. Joven gave me another smile before capturing my hand that was still on his wrist, and pulling me back down the corridor to the meeting room.

I had thought about telling Joven about my tattoo problems but had rejected the idea with as much venom as I could think of. I didn't want to be spooked out of my decision or to be told that it wasn't a good idea. I was going to get a tattoo, with my friend, as I promised... No matter how much it's gonna hurt.

Joven's POV (Timeskip also present)

I walked into the office early one morning to see Sohinki playing some Dota 2 on his computer. I rolled my eyes at the familiar sight and looked around for Davina. She had been quiet the past few days and I was a bit worried, she didn't seem to be the quiet type. She had only been here a few weeks and had already made such an impact on both me and Sohinki. We both had texted her yesterday and neither of us got any reply.

"Hey dude, have you heard anything about Davina? See's been really quiet lately." I asked the Dota playing nerd. Sohinki paused his game and turned to face me with a look as if to say "really dude? If you don't know, then how the fuck should I know?". It was at that moment when Davina walked in with a smile on her face.

"Hey guys, whats up?" I looked at the girl and noticed that she seemed to not be putting any movement on her right shoulder. Her eyes also seemed to be a bit watery. Sohinki noticed to;

"Hey Daveen. Whats with the silence?" Sohinki asked concerned. Daveen's smile slipped and she looked at the floor.

"One of my friends is in the Marines and he's getting deployed in a few days." She said softly. Oh!

"You alright then?" I asked concerned. There seemed to be a bit more to the story then that but I chose not to question it further. I could always stop her later.

"Yeah just fine." She trailed off softly and walked to her office space. I decided to wait a bit longer before asked her what was really bugging her.

A couple of hours later I was sat alone in the office with Daveen. This was my chance to ask her what really was going on, what I didn't expect was her coming over to me and asking;

"What's it like after you get a tattoo?" My eyes widened at her words. Da fuck?

"Erm... It hurts for a few days and is quite red, after that it doesn't hurt so much." I offered. She nodded her head and looked at the floor. I was confused as to why she was asking.

"Is there something you're not telling?" I prompted. Davina looked at me with the saddest eyes I had ever seen and told me.

"My friend and I went out yesterday and we got a tattoo each. It hurts like an actual bitch and I want to claw of my skin. I didn't want to tell anyone because I thought it may scare me into not getting it done." My heart broke at the tone of her voice. I felt so much sympathy for her as that's what it was like when I got all of mine done. To show that felt some compassion towards her, I stood up and wrapped my arms, tenderly around her. I was rather shocked when she wrapped her arms around my waist and cried into my chest but it was nice to know she trusted me with this small gesture.

"You can tell me anything you know, I won't judge." I said quietly after a few minutes. I felt Davina nod once and sniff. She then looked up at me with a new excitement in her eyes.

"Do you want to see it? Its pretty fuckin' awesome!" I laughed at her new-found enthusiasm and nodded. She broke out of my arms, turned around and pulled down the right sleeve of her too big shirt. It was a unicorn... With a laser instead of a horn, and a fricking rocket launcher on its back. It did look pretty awesome, I had to admit, and it oddly suited her. I have no clue as to where the next words came from.

"Do you mind if I call you Lasercorn?" She seemed to process this for a while before turning back around a hugging me again.

"I'm strangely ok with that." She smiled. And from that day onwards, me and Sohinki (who found out a few days later) called her Lasercorn.
