I'm just in love (when you wake me up)

"Okay, but all I'm saying is that I think you should seriously consider it."

"All I'm saying is that me getting a tattoo of your name on my butt is a big and definite no."

Chaeyoung gently tugs on a piece of Lisa's hair. "Why not? I hear butt tattoos of your favorite person's name is becoming a huge trend nowadays, next to crop top sweaters and gas-efficient cars."

"A little presumptuous of you to think you're my favorite person, Chaeng." Lisa's biting back a smile.

"But I am." Chaeyoung brings a piece of hair to tickle her nose.

Lisa scrunches her face, playfully swats at Chaeyoung's hand. "Jisoo's my favorite person, actually."

Chaeyoung gasps. "Is it because she brought you McDonald's last week? Because I totally would have done that."

Lisa raises an eyebrow.

"...If I wasn't so broke," Chaeyoung adds.

Lisa hums, drapes an arm across Chaeyoung's waist. "Sorry, Chaeng. I need me a girl with green in her purse."

"Green?"

"Moolah. Lotsa money. Something you unfortunately lack."

Chaeyoung has to agree. "Yeah, that and I can't put my leg over my head."

Lisa hums again. "Oh, yeah, that too. Tell me, why am I with you again?"

"'Cause I got style, Manoban." Chaeyoung licks her thumbs, runs them over her eyebrows, and winks.

"Well, I'm not so sure about that."

Chaeyoung wipes her thumbs on Lisa's shirt.

"Ew!" she exclaims, tries to scoot back as far as she can in Chaeyoung's small twin bed without falling. "You suck. Jisoo wouldn't treat me like this."

"Yes she would."

"Yeah, she would, actually."

"Just you wait until this whole k-pop idol thing we got going on works out," Chaeyoung says. "I'll buy you all the food you want."

"My savior."

"Okay, but seriously." Chaeyoung puts her serious face on.

"What?" Lisa draws her eyebrows in slight worry.

"Come on now, it's fun! Like, you know, when someone asks if you have some kind of body art, you can casually answer, 'Oh, I have a tattoo of my girl's name on my butt.' How funny would that be?" Chaeyoung says as she bursts into uncontrollable fits of laughter.

Lisa nudges her with a boisterous laugh, mirroring the other girl as she clutches her stomach. "You jerk, I thought it was actually gonna be something serious!"

"This is serious, Lis. As serious as a heart attack." Chaeyoung tries to put her serious face on again but fails this time. "One day, this very tattoo could just about save your life." 

"How exactly?"

"Okay, stay with me here," Chaeyoung says. "So these aliens, right? These aliens come down – Hey! I told you to stay with me! Stop laughing!" She tries to put her hand over Lisa's mouth.

"Okay, okay," Lisa says when the hand is lifted. "How would my hypothetical butt tattoo of your name be of any use to me?"

"Like I was saying, so these aliens come down and they're like, 'Greetings earthlings,' and then yadayadayada they do their whole spiel, and then they're like, 'We will only spare those who have a tattoo of their lover's name on their left butt cheek. The rest will be painfully evaporated.'"
