LISA'S POV
I kissed her senseless.
It was making me crazy.
Suddenly, I don't mind kissing the first real girl-friend that I have—or had.
I'm way too afraid to stop, for all these fun to stop.
What if she goes back to her usual self and avoid me because I kissed her back when she's just not in her right state of mind?
I never knew I needed Rosé this much in my life. Over the weeks we spent together, we've helped each other lift up the baggages that each of us carry.
My lips was left hung open when she suddenly pulled away, fear slowly crawling on me. Has she come to her senses and realized that she's not enjoying herself as much as I'm doing?
But my thoughts were interrupted when I saw her looking at the door with wide eyes.
I didn't even hear Jennie open the door. Fuck.
Her brow raised at Rosé, like a strict sister that has caught her young, innocent sister on a steamy make-out session with an untrusted intruder of their lives.
I didn't dare show an emotion on my face as my eyes lingered on her eyes that has gotten smaller, something that secretly gave me chills. She's kinda intimidating but I won't let her know that. I raised both of my brows as well as I acknowledged her glare.
Her glare that somehow managed to convince me that she's disgusted. I hid my fist behind me that I slowly clenched.
"U-Unnie..." Rosé stuttered.
"It's getting late now Lisa," Jennie said in a cold, deadly tone. Sending me signals that I'm no longer welcome here.
I didn't waste a second and marched towards her. The fact that I'm tall enough to look down on her right now made me plaster a sly smile on my face.
Her eyes were throwing daggers at me but I didn't mind. I'm used to it, I'm used to people hating on me.
But somehow her hate fueled something in me.
I stopped when my toes were already almost touching hers, our eyes contact never breaking apart despite the proximity. Pursing my lips, I looked down on her, "Let's talk tomorrow," and glanced to behind me, "Rosé."
I didn't wait for her answer and made my way out already, walking past Jennie.

"Hey," I approached Tzuyu slowly when I noticed her fidgeting on her fingers just outside the restrooms. "You okay?"
"Lisa," she sounded surprised but I appreciated her pleasant smile, "Yeah, just a bit nervous. You know."
She was talking about the elections that are already on going.
I can't exactly consider Tzuyu a friend. Our mothers are friends so we were kinda forced to be together a lot and we hooked up some time before, but yeah I guess we are at least civil with me being concerned with her just a bit more than my past hook-ups.
"It will be fine, whatever the result is," I smiled at her, "If you don't win today then you can just celebrate for not having to be burdened because of this goddamn school with its shitty students and their raging hormones that kept being a pain in the ass in this school. Like me?"
She laughed lightly, "I'm not really sure how those words made me feel better but yeah it did. Thanks."
"I'm glad," I chuckled then cleared my throat when Jennie and Kai suddenly showed up while they were casually talking, behind Tzuyu to see.
I smirked when I caught Jennie's piercing gaze at me.
I intentionally reached for Tzuyu's cheeks and pinched it, knowing Jennie will see it. "Don't worry I'll vote for you. You deserve to win," I said loud enough to annoy Jennie Kim.
Tzuyu had a weirded out expression on her face but just slapped my hands away and laughed, "You're not falling for me now, are you?" she joked.
"No I'm just trying to hook up—"
"Lalisa."
Her cold tone interrupted me.
I slowly turned to see that Jennie stopped walking just behind me, her back was facing me.
My eyes met Kai's who's now looking curious.
"We need to talk. Now," the scary girl added. "I'll see you later Kai."
I just shrugged and smiled at Tzuyu, who's giving me suspicious stares, before following Jennie who walked fast enough for me to jog just to catch up with her.
"Wait up!" I said, catching my breath.
But she kept walking far away from people until we reached the auditorium.
I snorted when she turned around to face me once she made sure that we were alone. She looked fuming mad...
I grinned internally in satisfaction. She must really be annoyed everytime people praise her enemy.
"I don't care if you're fucking Tzuyu, if you fucked Irene or you plan to fuck more people in the future but how dare you include Rosé in your disgusting game?!" she shouted, her chest rising and falling quickly as she exploded in anger.
I blinked once.
Twice.
Thrice.
It was like anger started to build up in me as I tried to process her words.
I kissed Rosé because she asked me to! She was the first girl that I genuinely cared for in years how could I fucking want to ruin our friendship just because of lust?!
This girl is driving me mad.
I clenched my fist tight against my sides as I gave her a sly smile and shook my head in disbelief while eyeing her. "Honestly Jennie? It's none of your business. And just for your own peace of mind I'm not toying her—"
"And you expect me to believe you? With that slutty reputation you have there?!" she growled. "Fucking stay away from her!"
"No you don't fucking tell me what to do!" I shot back quickly, silencing her.
I slowly walked closer to her, towering her as I looked down on her small figure. I didn't expect her to be intimidated because of the glare she's giving me but she stepped back a little.
It made me smirk, knowing I have an affect on her.
But I didn't let her distance herself, I took a larger step towards her and pinner her on the wall that she almost touched with her back.
"Stay back," she muttered under her breath trying to sound authorative when in reality, I feel her shivering and her breath hitching like a scared cat.
"Don't order me around," I leveled my eyes on hers as I inched closer while gritting my teeth, "Even if you become the president, you can't boss me around Jennie Kim. Listen here, your sister has her own mind. You have to stop meddling with her life just because you think she can't decide for her own. Stop acting so superior just because people kiss your feet in here. Stop hiding your insecurities by making your sister feel inferior, like she needs you in every way possible that you get to decide for her 'coz you don't. You might make Rosé feel insecure and all but in reality? You're the one who's insecure. You're scared that people might actually prefer her than you once she frees herself of the cage you're putting her in. So stop ruining her life by being a bitch."
I watched as her eyes widened and her jaw dropped. "W-What do you mean?! You're being nonsense! And-and what does that have to do with you being a... a jerk?! A fucking slut! I care for my sister and you know nothing!" she stuttered, like being hysterical because someone found out her dirty little secret.
She's breathing heavily on my nose as I stared deep into her brown eyes. I swallowed hard as I tried to keep my composure and not avoid seeing how her eyes started to glisten because of tears.
"I saw it with my eyes, Jennie. That no matter how you get everyone's attention here at school, it's not enough for you. That no matter how many times people choose you over Rosé here, it will never be the same at your home. Because at home," I bit my lip and paused for a while as I saw a single tear flow on her cheek, "you feel alone."
A stumbled backwards when she suddenly pushed me off forcefully. I hissed and turned to her, only to see her eyes constantly shedding tears.
"Fuck you!"
My eyes softened at the sight even when she just outright cursed me. She kept sobbing and wiping her tears away while glaring at me.
"Just.. fuck you! I-I fucking hate you!" she shouted while pointing at me before turning her heels and running out of the room.
Hell. What did you do, Lisa?
Fuck me.
