Silver Tongue (Part II - Final)
(Pic is not mine)
' "OW!" He screamed, his hand flying up to inspect his burning lips, "WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT?!?!" '
This was the last straw.
You had forgiven him for trashing your apartment. You had forgiven him for wrecking your car. You had ignored the time when he completely ruined you brand new carpet...
But this was the last straw.
Because NOBODY can mess with a tattoo artist's ink...
Not even a werewolf...

You walked out of your bedroom, for the second time that morning, in confidence. As you were expecting, Minseok was on the sofa, watching TV, when he saw you exit your room. He immediately jumped up and ran towards you with open arms. But as he drew closer, he noticed all the silver you were wearing and he stopped in his tracks. He looked you up and down with an expression of disappointment and betrayal- his eyebrows were creased and he opened his mouth in shock. "How could you?" He said, dramatically. "I trusted you!"
You almost laughed at his adorable reaction but you knew you couldn't show your amusment towards him because that would've meant that you'd forgiven him and you certainly hadn't yet.
You still didn't speak; Minseok pouted. "Baaaabeeeeeeee..." he whined. You stared at him, blankly, and proceeded to the kitchen to make yourself breakfast. Minseok followed behind you still looking distraught. "UGHHH THIS IS TORTURE! I can't even hug you!" You turned to the fridge and smirked.
This is what you get for spilling my ink.
You spun around and you were surprised to see Minseok throwing himself at you and hugging your silver adorned body. Immediately the silver touched his skin and began to burn him. The smell of burning flesh filled the room. Your jaw dropped and your eyes grew wide - you hadn't actually expected him to even come close to you with all this silver on! You struggled and squealed, "MINSEOK, WHAT IN THE WORLD ARE YOU DOING? YOU'LL GET HURT! GET OFF!" But he continued to hold you tight - he had always been stubborn.
"I'M SORRY! I'M SOR- ouch- Y/N, BABE, I'M-argh-SORRY!"
He cried as he wrapped his arms around you, tighter - your silver bangles digging into and scorching his skin. You lifted your arms in attempt to keep your braclets from touching his body but you couldn't quite pull your chest back far enough to keep him from digging his face into your neck which was adorned with a silver chain.
He kissed your neck and pulled you close, despite the burning pain. "Minseok! Get off! Please!" you said, worried - obviously you hadn't actually wanted him to get hurt. You hadn't expected him to react this way!
"No!" He said, stubbornly, "I'm not letting go until you forgive me!"
Minseok squeezed and squeezed and it pained you to see him endure such agony because you knew how much silver hurt him...

"I want this one, babe." Minseok said, pointing at a simple, stud earring inside one of your jewellry boxes. "Ahh good choice,babe," you said, sitting yourself on a stool in front of him, "Where do you want it?" He thought for a moment and said, "Just in my right earlobe would be fine."
You disinfected Minseok's ear and prepared your piercing gun and held it in place against his earlobe. Steadily, you counted...
"1...2...3..." and you clicked the gun.
"Perfect!" You said, admiring your handy work,
"What do you think, Min?"
Turning his head, Minseok examined his shiny, new earring in the mirror you provided him with.
"I love it, darling, thank you!" he exclaimed and pulled you close for a warm hug.
"I'm glad you appreciate it, Min."you said, kissing him on the lips.
"But I have a question, babe..." he said, looking suddenly uncomfortable.
You hummed in response.
"Is it supposed to burn like this?"
You looked up at him and inspected his ear. Minseok had a very high pain tolerance, so you were surprised when he said that the piercing caused him pain. You saw that his entire ear and the the area around it was beginning to turn a bright shade of red.
"Argh!"he grunted,"it hurts! Why does it hurt so mu- Y/N, WHAT IS THIS EARRING MADE OUT OF?"
You were taken back by his sudden outburst. His brows were furrowed and beads of sweat were slipping down the side of his head - he was in a lot of pain... but... why?
"It's silver, Minseok! It's just silver!"
You took the earring and quickly removed it from his ear. You could see that the area which the stud was touching had turned a deep, red colour.
"Minseok! Are you allergic to silver?" You asked, shaking with worry, "how come you didn't tell me? I didn't know it was this severe! I've never seen someone this badly allergic! Are you okay? I'm so sorry!"
Minseok, having calmed down slightly, took your hand in his and said, "I'm okay now, don't worry. It's not your fault. You never knew! Please don't worry."
You took a deep breath and said "I'm glad youre okay... just... please tell me about stuff like this next time. I literally own a place which is filled with silver - it's dangerous for you..."
"I know, I'm sorry I didn't tell you..."
"Be honest with me... is this why you're always hesitant make any sort of physical contact with me? Because of these...?" you said, pointing at your silver lip piercing and the silver ring you always wore on your right hand.
"Kinda..." he said.
"So that's why you always hold onto my left hand and never my right," you chuckled.
"You should've told me, babe... I would've taken them off... no problem. Why didn't you say anything?"
Minseok sighed and said, "Well... um... actually... Y/n...the reason why I'm 'allergic' to silver is cuz... uh... well..." he stopped and fiddled with his fingers nervously. He had to tell you about his secret eventually, but he was too scared to lose you... What would you think of him? You'd see him as a monster...
"C'mon, Min, it can't be that bad! It's not like you're some sort of werewolf or anything!" You said, snorting. You laughed and Minseok continued to look at you with an awkward smile. Assuming he wasn't entertained by the joke, you stopped laughing.
"Why are you looking at me like that, Min?"
"Because I am..."
"Because you're what?"
"A werewolf... just like you said."
"You're a werewolf?"
"Yeah."
You paused for a moment.
"Oh."
"Oh?"
"Oh."

You smiled at the memory.
So, that was how you found out about Minseok's secret.
Safe to say that Minseok had been so relieved when you said that you didn't mind and that you thought that him being a werewolf was pretty dang cool. In fact, you were more upset about the fact that he hadn't told you sooner otherwise you would've removed all of your silver bangles.
You looked down at Minseok, who was still pressed into your silver studded form and your heart felt weak. Red marks had formed across his skin and his face was contorted in agony and discomfort. Your heart grew soft at the fact that Minseok was willing to endure such pain for you...
You felt horrible for using his weakness against him.
Placing you hands on his shoulders, you said, "Minseok, stop, please, I forgive you. Please don't hurt yourself anymore... I'm sorry."
"No!" He said weakly, his voice muffled by your chest, "I won't let go til you really forgive me!"
You sighed and pushed him lightly.
"I really forgive you, Min, now please let go before you hurt yourself any more..."
Reluctantly, Minseok lowered his arms and retreated. He pouted, looked down at the ground and put his hands behind his back. You began to slowly remove each and every one of your silver ornaments.
"I really am sorry for spilling all of your ink, y/n," he whispered, "I'll make it up to you, I promise! I'll buy more right now if you want me to!"
After having rid yourself of every silver piece, you gently brought your hands up to his face and cupped his cheeks. "That doesn't matter, love. It's just ink... I can always buy more - it's replacable..." you whispered, staring, lovingly, into his deep, brown eyes...
"But you aren't, Minseok."
Minseok smiled brightly and stepped forward to wrap his strong arms around you once again.
"I'm so sorry, Min, for using all these piercings as a way to try to keep you away just cuz of some tattoo ink... it was an accident and that was so petty of me... I really didn't expect you to hug me even with all this silver on!" you explained, genuinely upset at yourself for being so childish. You took a close look at your beloved's face to see several scorch marks and irritated patches of skin. You gasped, "And now you have burns all over you! My gosh, Min, why didn't you let go? Look at your face! Your arms are full of burns! You're hurt because of me! I'm so sorry... I can't believe I even thought of doing this. Does it still hurt? Do you need anything? Do you want me to--"
He managed to put a stop to your rambling by placing a light peck on your lips, which you returned without hesitation.
"You worry too much, babe," he said, rubbing your arms, comfortingly.
"I- I know... I just feel like a horrible person for doing this to you..." you said, quietly.
Minseok let out a breath and pulled you into his chest with a smile. You nuzzled into him and circled your arms around his warm body with a contented sigh. "Seriously, it's alright, love. Besides... it's not like I didn't deserve it right?" he chuckled.
Apologetically, you gazed up at him.
"But you didn't deserve it though..."
You sat up to kiss him. You placed your hands on his shoulders and he placed his hands around your hips as you both began to realise how much you had missed eachother's company.
"I take it that I'm forgiven, then?" Minseok smiled, between kisses.You nodded and continued to kiss him. Minseok put his hands on your cheeks and leaned forward to deepen the kiss.
But as soon as he did that... his lips were met by a familiar searing pain-
"OW!" He screamed, his hand flying up to inspect his burning lips, "WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT?!?!"
You gasped, suddenly realising that you hadn't done such a good job of removing all of your jewelry...
You gave Minseok an awkward smile and proceeded to then, slowly, stick out your tongue to remove the silver barbell.
Minseok gasped, dramatically, and put his hand to his heart in feigned hurt. "You have betrayed me."
You giggled at his exaggerated reaction as he proceeded to pull you down into a massive hug.
"Oops... Looks like I forgot about that one..."
