How to remove software update badge on settings?

So this morning I saw an ios 8.0.2 software update notification on my iphone 4s running ios 7.1.2. It was not even connected to the internet and I havent even checked for the update manually. Anyway now theres a little badge on my settings app and inside it. It's just so annoying and it bothers me. I was wondering if there is anyway to remove this without resorting to you know what or updating the software? Thanks

iPhone 4S, iOS 7.1.2

The only way to clear it is to update iOS.
