Flipped

JN.

When Jennie walked into her room that day her hand came to her mouth and she gasped. "I knew it!" Rosé and Lisa stopped their lip lock session and turned to her sheepishly.

"That's why you two have been disappearing the last months." Jennie said knowingly.

"Busted." Lisa sat upright on Rosé's bed, the other sitting on the edge to create distance. Her face glowing red.

"We wanted to tell you after we made it official." Rosé admitted.

"You know what that calls for?" Jennie asked excitedly.

"What...?" Rosé and Lisa asked suspiciously.

"Double date!" Jennie squealed.

JS.

Jisoo returned from classes to messages of Jennie, calling her over to a spontaneous date. Obviously Jisoo didn't decline her and so she on a double date Jennie planned. Because of danger of black ice they couldn't leave the school property, hence they stayed in Jennie and Rosé's shared room.

Jisoo and Lisa built up a film projector while Jennie and Rosé picked out their takeaway. Doyoung and Jinyoung had to learn for an exam so Jisoo told Jennie they wouldn't disturb them again. Otherwise Jennie would have ordered more food.

Lisa and Rosé were cuddled on Rosé's bed while Jennie and Jisoo lied on Jennie's bed. They turned the lights out and started the film.

"I don't want to hear any kissing sounds." Lisa told the girls on the other bed.

"Right back at you." Jisoo rebutted.

Jisoo didn't intend to smooch with Jennie in front of her friends. Although that thought crossed her mind since they turned the room dark, they wouldn't see it. As long as they keep quiet it would work but she could hold back. There is no reason to do that now. Besides Jennie is already cuddled up against her arm, that's enough. Jisoo won't be greedy.

The elder stirred as she felt Jennie's hand wander, it gave her momentarily goosebumps, thinking maybe Jennie had the same thoughts but they stopped at the back of her hand. Jisoo smiled and waited for Jennie to move further.

She was aware of the fact Jennie was doing the same and pretty much requested for Jisoo to hold her hand but Jisoo decided to tease her. And make her do that step. She felt Jennie shuffle in her spot when Jisoo didn't budge. She could also feel her pout, pressed on her shoulder which didn't fail to place a smile on her face. Warmth swelled in her chest.

She still didn't move, Jennie eventually grew tired of waiting and tugged on her hand loosely. A very light grip. She clutched on Jisoo's hand with her thumb and index finger only. So small, her hand was so small. Jisoo sighed and took it in her own hand. The pout turned into a smile and Jisoo's heart fluttered.

"You are so cute..." Jisoo whispered, placing a kiss on her cheek softly. So soft and slow she assumed the other two didn't hear it. Jennie laced their fingers and sighed, her body flush on Jisoo's side but she still nestled closer.

"We said no PDA." Lisa commented, stopping them from exchanging pecks.

"Sorry." Jisoo muttered while Jennie giggled into her shoulder.

Rosé's phone beeped, intervening further arguments. "Food is there. The delivery service is waiting outside." She read the message and untangled her limbs from Lisa's.

Lisa and Rosé went out, fetching the delivery outside. Jisoo paused the film and used that moment to give Jennie a proper kiss. The younger was taken aback but reciprocated afterwards.

Just when they really got into it they heard a knock. They ignored it and continued. Another knock.

"Door's open Lisa!" Jisoo rolled her eyes, her hands retreating remorsefully from Jennie's soft cheeks.

The door opened but it wasn't Lisa and Rosé who came in. It was a frantic Kyungsoo.

"We gotta leave." He whispered shouted.

The two went on their way, strutting over to him alarmed. He guided them through the hallway and pushed them to the left corridor. They stayed rooted against the wall, hearing steps from in front of them. Kyungsoo peeked with his head but quickly backtracked.

"They are here." He whispered.

"Did you get the pills yet?" Jennie asked quietly.

He shook his head. "I ordered them to my apartment. I will distract them and you two run over there, wait for the package to arrive."

They nodded and made a run for it as he showed himself to them, making them chase him in the opposite direction.

*****

"Doyoung has been visiting Taeyong?"

"Yes. He said he is making progress." Jisoo informed her girlfriend.

"Oh wow. He is lucky to have Doyoung's support."

"Yep. I mean he tried to stab you so we will stay the hell away from him but as long as he doesn't hurt anyone in the future, good for him."

Jennie and Jisoo chatted while opening the package Kyungsoo ordered. It contained the pills like he told them. He wrote them a short message saying he already left by the time they get this and trusts them to do their part of the deal. They wouldn't see him again.

"Hey, he forgot his leather bag." Jennie noticed, otherwise the apartment was empty. He left no traces aside that bag.

As she grabbed the leather bag something fell out. A rolled up paper. Jisoo unfolded it. It was what seems to be a newspaper.

"The date says 3012." Jennie pointed to the top.

"Weird." Jisoo opened it and skimmed through the content. A particular headline made her stop in her tracks.

'X Æ A-50B, the clone of Elon Musk Jr. Jr.'s great grandchild X Æ A-50 invented the first electrically powered Family Spaceship.'

Jisoo scanned the article with a frown on her face, Jennie looked over her shoulder and gazed the paper while Jisoo read. "If you want to travel to Jupiter with your family, orders have to be made immediately. The vehicle is sold as limited edition for the time being."

A pause followed, Jisoo laid the paper on the floor and locked eyes with Jennie. "You don't think that...."

"...No." Jennie blinked. "Of course not. Right?"

"Right?" Jisoo chuckled awkwardly. Both of them nodded and disposed the newspaper right into the dustbin, pretending they haven't seen anything.
