Eyes Closed (Chaelisa)

Chapter 27

Lisa POV

I've done it now. After endless nights of practice I've finally managed to learn and play a song on my guitar. Chaeyoung really helped me a lot when teaching me. I practiced in secret when everyone's asleep I'd play ever so quietly just so I could learn this song a little bit quicker. I managed to learn it just in time for Christmas. I hope Chaeyoung will like my gift to her.

Ever since last November, I've been planning this surprise in secret but Jennie being nosy noticed that I was keeping a secret so she made me tell her my plan. I told her and Jisoo-unnie heard everything.

Flashback

Chaeyoung was out visiting her family so I made sure to practice playing the guitar. I was strumming the guitar and singing along when Jennie-unnie opened the door to my room.

"Lisa, what are you doing?" she asks.

"I'm just practicing the guitar, you know I want to learn how to play right?" I respond.

"Yeah, I know but you're definitely up to something. If you really just wanted to learn you'd play something easy and basic but you've been trying to learn this specific song. You think you're good at keeping secrets but I actually hear you almost every night repeating the same song over and over. So spill? What are you doing?"

My mouth hangs open wide in shock.

"Fine but don't tell anyone okay? Come here." I tell her and call her over.

"I've been practicing playing this song because I want to sing it for Chaeyoung when I..." before I could even finish my sentence she interrupts me

"Oh my god! You're going to confess?" She squeals. I panic and put my hand on her mouth. She finally settles down and promises not to be noisy.

"Yes unnie, I plan to confess. I'm not really good with words you know so I hope that this song will bring my message across. I'm scared unnie what if she'll reject me? There are times where I feel like we both feel the same way. She gives me this look you see, I've never seen her give that look before to others not even you or Jisoo unnie. She only gives me this look, a look that bores deep into my heart. The look that's like we're the only two people in the room and that only my existence matters to her. But I'm still afraid that it's just my head playing with me. What'll happen if she rejects me? What'll happen to our friendship?" I drag on my thoughts.

"What will happen if it works though?"

Me and Jennie-unnie moved our heads towards the direction of that voice as fast as lightning. Jisoo-unnie was standing on the doorstep of my room giving me this knowing smile. She walks inside and seats infront of me and Jennie-unnie.

"I knew you were inlove with her kiddo, you're too obvious with your eyes and actions. It keeps my guessing why Pasta still hasn't noticed. Also, I am happy and approve of you and Pasta but make sure you take care of Pasta okay? If you hurt her, I'll kick your ass." she says softly and pats my head. All the hairs on my body instinctively stand up, her words were soft and gentle but I knew she meant very word she said. She really would kick my ass if I hurt Rosie.

"Do you think I have a chance unnie?" I ask then again.

"No idea but it's worth knocking yourself out by trying than not trying at all. What if you chicken out now and never manage to tell her your feelings and it turns out she felt the same way? It's better to try and find out by yourself Limario. If you think she's really worth the risk then why are you still so afraid? Just take the leap of faith, you might be surprised at what's in store for you." she winks at me and Jennie-unnie and leaves us as quickly as she came in.

"Woah, what was that? Since when did Jisoo-unnie become an expert in the field of love?" Jennie-unnie asks.

"Maybe she's in love with someone."

Jennie hits me when I said that. There was a sorrowful look in her eyes. What was that? Hmm, something's going on.

"Okay I didn't mean what I say, she must not be in love with someone then. But Jennie-unnie,  if you're so jealous at the thought that she's in love with someone that's not you then why don't you just confess your feelings to her as well." I say winking at her.

"H-how did you? Shit. We do not speak about this ever again. Jisoo doesn't see me that way and n-neither will I. It's better if I just date someone else and forget about her than to keep my hopes up of the thought that she'd  one day end up falling for me. There were almost tears in het eyes but she wipes then away and leaves my room quickly.

End of flashback

Thankfully the unnies will help me to do the surprise. I hope she likes it and hopefully she feels the same way to or will at least allow me to show my love for her so that one day she'd love me too.

When we finished eating lunch, the unnies and I started working on the decorations for the surprise and how we'll make it work.

Only a few hours left before Chaeyoung returns. My heart was beating a hundred miles per hour yet I was excited at the same time. I could already imagine her surprised face when she sees this.
