The table was silent as I ate my cornflakes drowned in milk, by that they'd turned soggy
It was an awkward silence, no one even bothered to greet one another after they found out about my brother's boyfriend
Bambam was looking down at his bowl in silence with his headphones in and beanie placed lopsided on his head, the slight hum of music coming out of his headphones were the only sound the filled the room
Deciding I didn't want anymore, I pushed the bowl away from me and quietly excused myself from the table. After I finished getting ready for school
Today Jennie and I have chosen to walk to school considering it's our first day of being in a relationship. I walked out to the front of my house and waited on the step so my mom and dad wouldn't question who Jennie is. In the meantime, I scroll through my phone catching up on social media
I clicked on Jennie's profile but it was private with lots of followers that were fellow cheerleaders and jocks. My thumb hovered over the request to follow sign contemplating if I should click it
It could look kind of weird considering we are supposed to not really know each other and even dislike each other, especially after the smoothie incident
The voice in the back of my head told me this was a bad idea and not t press the button but the over voice wanted me to press it so I could see what kind of photos she posts
I listened to the voice the told me not figuring it was the best choice and I could always ask Jennie if I could look at her Instagram, and I guess at some point people will know about us
Jennie walked up the pavement looking fabulous as always in her tight school uniform and heels, I'm surprised the sheer and her group of friends get away with wearing heels considering it's against school policy
"Hey," she said walking up to me the placing a kiss on my cheek
"Hi" I replied already blushing
No one walked to school the way I do so Jennie and I are holding hand in hand, the whole way to school we're talking about random stuff we like and funny posts we've seen online
I told her about a hilarious video on YouTube about a rabbit being told it's adopted, we carried on like that until we are near the school gates
Letting go of each other hands we walk in separately like we don't know or care about each other in any way
I walk off to my locker after mumbling a quick goodbye to Jennie and saw that Somi and Tzuyu are already there
"So spill the tea," Somi said without even saying a greeting of any sort
"What tea?" I asked chucking nervously
"Don't think I didn't see that little mumble of a goodbye, Lalisa Manoban" Somi said using my full name for probably the first time in years. I think the last time she called me that was when I stole some of her icecreams
I stared down at my battered black covers suddenly finding each imperfection of wear interesting. The more I looked I started making up stories for every speck of dirt or grass stain
"It's rude not to answer when someone is talking to you" Somi pointed out being overdramatic like always
"There's no tea" I exclaimed trying to make my voice as steady as possible
Tzuyu looked at me her head slightly tilted in confusion but I could tell she felt awkward
Luckily the bell rung saving me from having to say any explanation and headed off to art whilst Somi and Tzuyu went to their drama class
I got to art just about on time and headed to my seat at the back of the class. Jennie came into the room and sat down next to me already taking her sketchbook out of her bag, she gently placed the sketch pad down then looked at me with a sparkle in her eyes
Jennie's smile is slightly crooked but that somehow makes her even more adorable
"H-Hey" I stuttered not even sure why I'm nervous
"H, I," she said back confidently but also with the tone of caring
Jennie lightly placed her hand in a mine underneath the table so no one could see, even though that small movement I can feel sparks radiating up my arm, and by the look on her face I knew she felt it too
Throughout the lesson, we whispered to each other and planned about when our next date would be
the classes eventually ended so Jennie and I planned to meet after school thang out and study
It is now lunch and my friends and I are sitting at our normal table when Jennie's friends come over to us, they all had their hair in high tight ponytails but the only one that wasn't with them is Jennie
Almost instantly I felt a pit at the bottom of my stomach with a gnawing feeling of dread, the girls all glanced at us in perfect unison then looked us up and down with a slight disgust expression on their face, the one in the middle walked up closer to us
"Leave Jennie alone" she hissed with an overpowering dominance tone in her voice as she practically spat out the words
Once she said what she wanted the girls on cue crossed their arms then strutted away from us
"What was all that about?" Tzuyu asked curiously directing her stare at me, Somi looked at me with a pointed look guessing what's going on
The dread didn't leave me as I wondered if Jennie's friends knew about Jennie and I...
