"Lisa, I really like you but you have to let go of me." Jennie said, trying to get out of the death grip that Lisa had her in. 

"What? Noooo." The basketball player tugged Jennie closer to her and kept her in an embrace. She rested her chin on top of Jennie's, holding her tight. The brunette chuckled and left a trail of kisses along the expanse of Lisa's neck. 

Giggling, the younger girl pulled back. "Stop, I'm ticklish." She said and let go of Jennie. The brunette smirked hearing that. "That's great to know, so I could do this." She tugged Lisa close and nuzzled her face in the crook of Lisa's neck. 

"Stop." Lisa giggled more and pulled away, holding Jennie's face in her hands so she doesn't do it again.

The brunette playfully pouted, but a passing by student pulled her out of her trance. 

"Hey, you have a test to get too!" She exclaimed and took Lisa's hands off of her face. Lisa huffed. "I don't wanna write it." She complained and Jennie just gives her a reassuring smile. 

"I give you my word that you'll pass. All this prepping wasn't for nothing." She turns Lisa around and pushes her towards the classroom door. 

"Fine, if you say so." The younger waved Jennie goodbye and went to her classroom. Jennie waved back and chuckled when Lisa was out of sight. 

Feeling silence creep up onto her, she gazed around the hall to find everyone silently staring at her. The brunette felt embarrassment rush in and she lowered her head, shuffling somewhere else.

Since she had a free period this afternoon, Jennie decided that she should visit the library which  was just across the street instead of the school one.

The brunette took her jacket and put it on, going outside in the cold weather. Jennie shivered as a gust of wind blew past her. "It's getting colder and colder." She commented to herself and was grateful when she finally reached the doors of the library. 

Swinging it open, she smiles as the warm air and smell of books hits her. Jennie takes off her jacket and carries it in her hand wandering down the numerous aisles, trying to find a good book she could potentially become obsessed with for the next couple of weeks. 

"You know, a good place to start would be the mystery aisle. It has the best books in stock right now." Jennie furrowed her brows and looked up beside her, seeing a guy stand beside her with a smile.

The brunette stepped back a little and gave him a tight lipped smile. "Maybe I should." Jennie said, only trying to be polite so she could back in the safe sanctuary of her mind and be alone with her thoughts.

The boy's smile grew wider. "Do you...need any help?" He asked with a different, more suggestive tone in his voice. Yeah, Jennie couldn't be polite anymore. "No, I'm good." She responded curtly and turned around to sit at one of the empty tables. 

There was no giving up for the guy as he jogged and stood in front of Jennie's way. "Come on, I'm sure I can find you a great book." He kept a smirk on his face that he probably thought was sexy, but Jennie felt like slapping it off of his face.

Jennie continued walking, only for him to start walking backwards, his eyes still focused on her. When she couldn't take it anymore, Jennie stopped and huffed. "Listen, I'm just really not in the mood for this right now. I'm sure you're a great guy, but I'm fine, honestly." 

The boy's smile got wiped off of his face. He scoffed and crossed his arms. "Like I really wanted to be with you anyways." He spit out and walked away. 

Jennie scrunched her face up in confusion, but didn't question it further. "Boys." She mentally said to herself in exhaustion. Jennie heard a small 'ding' go off and she patted down her pockets for her phone.
