Heartbeat

Chapter 16

And also she wasn't peeking to look at her tattoo, she was peeking because Sidharth isn't wearing any shirt, means his upper body is naked, and that's Rarely happens.

Kushal let out a throaty laugh and slapped Sidharth's back, "I don't know about you, but what you chose for bhaiya is surely going to make various head turn"

Shehnaaz squinted her eyes and bit her lip. Sidharth smiled and puts his hand on her's "Do you want me to hold your hand?" He joked.

Shehnaaz snatched his hand and nearly broke one of the bones. Sidharth hissed and glanced up to see that all of the muscles in her arms were being used to squeeze his hand.

"Damn, Shehnaaz" He mumbled, a bit exasperated.

"Does it hurt that bad?" Sidharth asked looking at her concerned.

"It's okay, it's not like she hasn't gotten tattooed before" Zara said to her nervous friend.

"Really??!!, where? May I see?" Kushal asks and Sidharth snaps, "No, you may not." Shehnaaz laughs as Kushal mumbled "Sadoo"

"Just hold through this, Shehnaaz. Once this is done, I'll too get a tattoo. Even Zara will get a tattoo." He said.

She gave him a look and said, "NO"

"Well, actually, she has two. One of a cross on her shoulder blade. There's a quote on her rib, She got that one done three weeks ago." Shehnaaz explained.

"So I am the only one who doesn't have a tattoo?" He muttered.

Sidharth made sure that Shehnaaz was calm throughout the process by holding her hand and rubbing circles on her palm with his thumb.

After Shehnaaz's tattoo was completed it was covered with a white plastic wrap to prevent foreign particles to entering the wound.

"Just few more dips, then it will be finished." The bulky tattoo artist said. Shehnaaz looked at his tattoo and smiled.

Suddenly a girl who was wearing a low neck top and tight skin hugging jeans, like it's printed on her long legs, walked in the tattoo parlor, she had long black hair, beautiful green eyes and her arms were filled with tattoos.

She took a full body sweep of Sidharth with her eyes, while smirking at him, the look appreciative of his physique, "Hey, Danny, sorry I'm late, but I should have come early, it would have been interesting to smear that sexy body with art." She said looking at Sidharth while biting her lip.

Um.. Hello can't you see me sitting beside him and him holding my freaking hand. She thought while scowling at the girl.

"Well what do you know? I might need another one of those." Sidharth said, the voice so smooth that it slips through his lips, while smirking at her.

Yeh lo Kar lo baat, jab apna hi sikka khota, toh dusron ka kya dosh she thought while narrowing her eyes at him.

The girl swallows at his baritone voice, and the apple of her cheeks and tips of her ears go pink.

Shehnaaz pulls her hand from his, jealousy prickles through her skin as she throw darts through her eyes that burns like torches.

Sidharth looks at her bewildered, and a little concern, after Sidharth's tattoo was completed, he walks to the counter to pay, when the girl slips a paper in his hand while winking and turning away, Sidharth shakes his head as he realizes it's her phone number, he throw it in the trash while walking out.
