Cursed Blood | Chaelisa

Chapter 41.

"I promise," I whispered back softly then sealed it with a kiss on Lisa's lips.

The next morning when I woke up, I could still feel the tingling feeling from Lisa's soft lips against my forehead from last night. I wanted that feeling again. Maybe that's what it feels like having someone's heart, and who also has yours.

"Good lord, I think I'm in love," I murmured dreamily to myself. Suddenly the giggling sounds caused me to open my eyes. A blurry face hovered over me. It took a moment until my eyes refocused. Joy was staring down at my face.

"You're in love now?" she said.

"Ooh!!!" I cried and sat up instantly, causing her to jump back.

"Glad you came back alive," Joy said, "And also in love. Should I tell Jisoo the good news?"

"Oh please!" I groaned. Then I realized I was back in my suite. But there was no sight of Jennie.

"Mind telling me about your date last night?" Joy asked.

"You know it wasn't a date," I said. "We were on a mission."

"And?"

"Mission accomplished,"

"Great! You will have to tell us everything afterwards," she said with a clap of her hands.

"Yeah... if you're ready to hear some spooky tales," I said with a grimace.

"So anything else?"

"Anything else what?"

"You and Lisa went out together," she shrugged, "And you came back...in love!"

I groaned again, feeling embarrassed to even yell at my best friend.

"Nothing happened between us," I said, but feeling kind of bold for the first time, "...at least not yet."

"Ooooh!!!"

"Stop it!" I said. "Or I won't tell you anything."

"Okay, okay," Joy said.

"Anyway, where's Jisoo and Jennie?" I asked to change the subject.

"They left for breakfast already," she said. "I came to wake you up."

"Oh, thanks,"

"But really? You guys didn't do it last night?" Joy asked. "I was hoping the mission involved a little love-making..."

"Joy! I'm not a horny opportunist like you," I said, glaring at her. "I'm still a virgin."

"Aw! Just lose your virginity to Lisa already," Joy said and rolled her eyes. "I've also been trying to convince Jisoo about the wonderment of having sex for ages."

"Well, you don't have to. She's already-" I blurted and then mentally smacked myself.

"What?" Joy said. "What does it mean?"

"Nothing," I said and hurried out of bed. But Joy pulled me by my shoulders and rolled me onto my back again. She came to sit on top of me.

"Tell me, what did you mean?" she asked.

"I already told you, it's nothing!" I said, sounding a little more obvious that I lied. And just like that, Joy dropped herself on my stomach, causing me to lose my breath all of a sudden.

"Erk!... Joy!... What the hell...!" I yelled. "Get off of me."

"Tell! Me... Now!" Joy said, punctuating every word by pounding herself on my stomach. I couldn't even cry out in pain. I would've flipped her off easily if it wasn't too early for my mind to function. And Joy didn't stop pounding on my gut.
