"No- Sir, please let us do it!" Chaeyoung is trying to argue back as polite as possible but it doesn't seem to work as the teacher kept pushing them away.
"No no, you guys go back to class, we don't want any crowds" he says still pushing them.
"But, its free period!"
"One more word and I'll put you both on duty for 2 weeks!" the girls shuts their mouth immediately after that.
As soon as their teacher left them, they went back to their mini high pitched whispering, "DUDE WE'RE IN TROUBLE-"
—
Lisa has not spoken a word since Momo 'snatched' her away for the so called tour around the school, it's either because she was too submerged with the surroundings, or it as Momo's intimidating smirks from time to time. Maybe both.
Lisa had greeted a few (A LOT) of students who became her fangirls and fanboys in less than 10 seconds when she gladly returns them with her oh so toothy grin that makes her eyes disappears whenever she initiates it.
They almost made a crowd around Lisa, but Momo's presence made it impossible. Lisa doesn't know why, she just rolls with it how her two dearest tutors told her to.
"So, Lisa..."
"Y-Yes?" The bear startles when Momo starts off. Sure, she has been talking, introducing the facilities here and there but something is different about her tone this time.
"Back in class... you did say something about being Chaeyoung's relative?"
"Chae unnie? Ah yes!"
"Oh..." she pauses. "Then do you know who I am?"
"Of course! You're the one who called me cute when we first meet!" the bear grins.
"No, not that, I mean, my connection with Chaeyoung?"
"Uhh...no? What is your connection with Chae unnie?"
The latter looks taken aback as her steps got slower until Lisa is now walking ahead of her. "Is that so..." she says to herself.
"Eh? What do you mean?" Lisa tilts her head, turning around to face her.
Momo says nothing, instead, she grabs her by the wrist and excitedly makes a way for both of them into a room.
"Perfect. Never mind that. Next stop, we'll see what you got!"
—
"Here you go, all done!" Jennie hands a folder to the student council's assistant who returns her with his gummy smile which she'd pay to see every day. Pretty cringe worthy, really. If Jisoo was reader, she'd comment DISGUSTING.
"Ah I can't thank you enough!" Bogum takes the folder with a hand while the other holds her by the shoulder.
"It was nothing really..." She blushes upon the contact.
"I need to repay you" Jennie waves her hand rather in panic, but Bogum choose to ignore her as he takes out a pocket-sized paper bag from his blazer. "Please take it"
"I-"
"I would be pretty upset if you won't" he pouts.
With her crush begging her to, she had no other choice. Slowly her hands approach it making the assistant laugh and pulls her right hand to put the gift in her palm before making her clench it.
"Y-You don't have to" Jennie has her head down trying to hide her red face after opening the bag, revealing a bear-shaped crystal keychain.
"Oh but I want to!" he smiles. "besides, you already helped me a lot"
"Thank you" she almost sounded inaudible.
"No sweats."
Jennie literally feels like being on cloud nine as in the moment with her dream-dazed face, her besties would be grimacing to witness such scene.
"Which reminds me... can you help me with another one?"
—
Sliding from slip to slip at the corridor, hiding from the teacher currently are the chipmunk and the satan.
"SHHH"
"I DIDN'T EVEN SAY ANYTHING"
"Shhhh I said!" the satan scolds half whispering.
-which is poorly done because almost most of the students around are eyeing them and in their view, they both look like the neighbourhood's dumb and dumber.
"You know what, this is useless. the teacher is already out of the school ground by now and WE'RE NOT EVEN INVISBLE TO EVERYONE'S SIGHT!" Chaeyoung huffs while crossing her arms.
"Ah but it won't be awesome and dangerous to not do so-" the latter pulls her by the forearm to hide behind a small plant which barely covers her lower half. Chaeyoung rolls her eyes.
Her bored eyes turns focused as she hears melodic beats from somewhere. "Yah, can you hear that?" she shooks Jisoo's shoulder.
"Can't, too busy being invisible-"
"No, I'm serious! Can you hear that???" they look around as if it could help them listen more attentively.
"Hold on... I know this song..." Jisoo stand up from her crouching position. "isn't that..."
"Blackpink's Boombayah!" they both point at each other with wide eyes and gaping lips.
"Is someone in dance class now?"
"But it's free period" Chaeyoung knits her eyebrows.
"Let's go check!"
—
They're right, it does came from the dance class. The duo approaches the said room but only to stop halfway because there seems to be quite a crowd in front of the entrance which they assume are fangirls and fanboys with all those high-pitched squealing.
"She's cute!"
"You mean hot,"
"The new student is so lit!"
"Hirai is with her, BONUS!"
"God I'm gay"
"Yep, it's them." The chipmunk groans.
"Ok ok ok move aside, peasants!" the satan as expected shoos them with her hands, "y'all don't wanna see the satan go full rage, and I'll also report you guys for space harassing" she pushes until they dispersed completely and is able to get a glimpse of what they're peeking from the door.
"Goddamn, I was right-" witnessing Lisa and Momo dancing to the recognized song, talk about perfect synch, it was a miracle no one actually bleed their nose.
They had never seen her that determined, every expression her face makes every time the dance move switches on every notes of the song and the way Momo accommodates her, it's art, fierce and passionate.
Despite being only in her school wear, blazer taken off revealing her white button up, fits perfect with her skirt, not too long nor is it too short. The exact moment made Jisoo realize how amazing her sense of style, though they're mere school attire, everyone is wearing pretty much the same.
"OH SHIT SHE'S FLEXIBLE" it came out a little high-pitched from Chaeyoung.
Momo wasn't all that far from dancing, they thought, except the fact that they hate her. Heck, even her ex can only focus on the bear.
"Chae..." Jisoo whispers, eyes still glued to Lisa.
"Yeah?"
"Is it too late to start a Lisa fanclub?"
"What-" the latter shakes her head to clear her thoughts, finally snapping back to reality. "now is not the time, we gotta get Jennie here FAST!"
"Though that idea of yours isn't that bad at all" she coughs making Jisoo snickers.
Just their luck, they don't even have to move a muscle as the wanted person came into the sight from the end of the corridor, staring at her new bear keychain with pink tint on her cheeks almost bumping into a student along the way.
"KIM, COME HERE!"
"Hey easy! You're gonna shatter this!" she exclaims when Jisoo pulls her by the sleeve.
Regardless of the normal inappropriateness of the satan, her eyes follow where her finger is pointed, her jaw drops.
But Jennie wasn't able to watch her dance that long (though she honestly would like to see it fully, let's just put that aside) as the song has finally came to its end.
"That was fun!" Lisa claps her hand childishly earning a giggle from the blondie.
"Told ya," she winks, "and good God you're so good! You learn so fast, I'm confused?" she points out the obvious in disbelief. Oh no, they thought.
Lisa lowers her head, scratching her nape shyly.
"We can do it again, tomorrow if you want" Momo smiles.
"Really??"
"I've had fun, why not?" she side-hugs Lisa this time, and with that Jennie unconsciously opens the door wide before stepping in. It takes her a few seconds before realizing what she just did, her eyes widen.
"OH SHOOT." Chaeyoung and Jisoo who are still in their peeking position blurts out.
"Nini?" Lisa turns around. "Jennie!" she jumps out of Momo's embrace to embrace her.
"Lisa..."
The bear finally let go, shifting her head to eye her master with a grin. There are a few strands of wet hair sticking on her face as she brushes them off with a finger. Jennie feels a knot, is it because of the eyeliner?
"You're sweaty"
"Wipe for me?" there's the knot again. Jennie prefer to think that it's because of her annoyance. Yes, it's all because of that. She wants to punch Lisa. Yes that was it.
"I-" she bits her lips, "Let's just go back to class..." but before she could pull Lisa away, Momo already had her other wrist in her hold.
"Sorry, Kim, but I am in charge for her today." The blondie gives her a smirk.
Jennie isn't the one to fight back and she most certainly not the one to disobey any teachers' orders.
It was the most intense 30 seconds staring contest between the two as the other two can just gulp, looking back from Momo and Jennie. Lisa stands clueless, she didn't remove her hand from Momo nor move away from her master.
"Fine." Jennie sighs but keeps its firm. She looks over to Lisa for a spare second before turning her heels to exit, her besties looks over each other in confusion before stepping back.
"Wait Jennie!"
For the second time that day Lisa was left behind by the person she garners her attention the most.
:(
—
Recess came and her attention was nowhere but Jennie as Lisa turns her head from side to side looking for the said person. Momo was long seated with Nayeon. Her friend is weird, Lisa thought, as she steals glances at her from time to time, but she just shrugs it off.
"Lisa, what's wrong?" her new found friend, Youngji, who is (thankfully) not one of those who fangirls her to the max, seated next to her asks while munching on a piece of bread.
"Have you seen, Jennie?" the bear asks back with a pout.
Youngji holds her with a finger to swallow her food first before speaking, "What about her? Do you like her?" she takes another bite.
"Who doesn't like Jennie?" Lisa becomes bright suddenly.
"Oh? Ohoho, I'll keep that a secret." she winks horribly, "Too bad, my friend. I heard she likes our Student Council's assistant, I tell you that."
"Who?" something sparks inside Lisa.
"Park Bogum." another new found friend of her, Namjoo, slides beside her with a fresh pack of sandwich. "I heard and don't worry, it'll only be between us."
"Does he like Jennie?" something about the person disturbs Lisa to the point she needs to ask.
"I've been wondering about that too," Namjoo raises her brows, "she had been seen a lot with Bogum lately, but they said it was just for mere schoolwork."
"I know I'm not in any position to say this but-" Youngji leans in the circle, making the two follow along. "there were rumours saying that he was seen with a lot of girls..." she whispers.
"Whoa really???" Youngji nods. "How come I don't get into that kind of gossip?"
"Only a few people knew about this, there's no evident so why spread? Plus, I'm gifted." The two laugh, but Lisa didn't as she's busy trying to gather the information into her not so smart brain.
Lisa went back to class earlier to write and doodle some more.
"It doesn't hurt to give another shot going back later wouldn't it?" She says to herself.
