Save The Date (Jenlisa)

Chapter 14

Lisa Manoban never believed in love or anything to do with it for that matter. She believed she would never find someone to love because it was just an imaginary feeling made up by those who want to feel something, anything different. She spent most of her life being independent and alone, never trusting anyone because so many people had let her down in her past. One time she thought maybe she had been in love with someone, in fact, she was so sure of it she even ended up doing a Google search on "symptoms of being in love," on the internet. Sure she found a few definitions of the word "love" and some sappy little quotes on it, but nothing gave her the answers she was hoping for.

The thing about love is you can't put a definition on it. You can look in the dictionary, research it, and read some quotes on it. In the end, though, none of it is true because everyone experiences love in a different way. Whether it's never wanting to leave the person whom you are in love with side, or being completely entranced by everything they do, or laughing at how stupid (or in reality how cute) they can be, or wanting to do anything and everything to make that person happy. Everyone experiences love in a different way.

For Lisa though, it was all those things and more. Did she have clue into being in love right off the bat? Hell no, she mistook her feelings for Jennie Kim as lust, or just as really enjoying her company. What made her realize she was in love with the cat-eyed beauty though?

The fact that she wanted to change who she was for her, to make her happy, and in hopes to maybe...possibly get the chance to be with her one day.

Irene slowly backed away from Lisa, frowning. Lisa stared ahead of her, through Irene as she replayed what she had just said in her head.

She was in love with Jennie Kim. There was no trying to deny or hide it any longer. Everything about Jennie made Lisa completely and utterly crazy for her. Lisa didn't want or need anyone else, only Jennie.

"Lisa I'm s-so sorry," Irene stuttered. "I had no idea."

"It's okay," Lisa continued to stare into nowhere in particular. "I had no idea until now either." A smile slowly formed itself on her face the more she thought about it. "I love Jennie Kim." Saying the words aloud for the first time had really made it real.

"Are you talking about Rosé's friend?" Irene curiously asked.

"Yeah, Rosé's friend...and my friend," Lisa sighed. "I'm sorry but I have to go," Lisa quickly ran towards the door.

"Where are you going?" Irene whirled around to face the other woman.

"To tell Jennie how I feel," Lisa opened the door and stopped dead in her tracks. "Wait, I can't." She suddenly changed her mind.

"Why not?" Irene raised an eyebrow, confused by what was going on.

"She has a boyfriend, and she's not gay." Lisa frowned. "Or so she says. She did cheat on him though by sleeping with me once." She immediately remembered their first night meeting.

"Pretty sure if she cheated on her boyfriend with you, not only is she a little gay but she probably likes you too." Irene cocked her head to the side.

"Well, she was really drunk..." Lisa frowned.

"Well, how do you think she feels?" Irene took a step towards Lisa, making the other woman immediately take a step back. "Don't worry; I'm not going to try anything."

"Sorry, just making sure," 

Irene rolled her eyes and sighed. "Seriously though, do you think she could have feelings for you?"

"I don't know, I mean it's hard to tell. We usually just do friend things like cuddle, hold hands, tease each other, and get on each other's nerves. You know, all that shit." Lisa raised an eyebrow when she saw a smirk appear on Irene's face. "What?"
