Ms. Kim wants me!

CHAPTER 22

LISA'S POV

I was in Jennie's office, standing right in front of her. She was hugging me tightly, her lips pressing soft kisses against mine as if she couldn't get enough.

Jennie gently cupped my cheek with her hand, her touch warm and tender.

"Come to my house tonight," she whispered with a sweet smile before leaning in to kiss my forehead.

Later, Jennie drove me to her place, and my jaw nearly dropped when I saw it. Her house wasn't just big, it was humongous, the kind of place you only saw in magazines.

We got out of her car, and she reached her hand out toward me. Without hesitation, I took it, lacing our fingers together. She led me up the path, unlocked the front door, and guided me inside.

The moment I stepped in, I gasped. The high ceilings, the elegant chandeliers, the massive windows, it was breathtaking.

Jennie chuckled at my reaction and tugged me toward the living room.

Soon enough, we were cuddled up on her couch, a blanket draped over us as we watched a movie. She was resting against my chest when she looked up, her breath brushing my ear.

"We're going somewhere," she whispered mysteriously.

"Where?" I asked, tilting my head down to look at her.

"It's a surprise. Now let's go!" she said with childlike excitement.

I laughed, shaking my head but following her anyway. We got back in her car, and she drove us away. Eventually, she handed me a blindfold.

"Put it on," she instructed.

I hesitated but did as she said. Jennie carefully guided me, telling me when to step and where to turn.

I could hear the sound of waves crashing nearby, the salty breeze brushing against my skin. It was quiet, peaceful, as if the whole world had disappeared.

"Take off your blindfold," Jennie whispered into my ear, standing close behind me.

I slowly removed it, and my eyes widened in awe. My jaw dropped. Right in front of me was a beautiful picnic set up on the beach, the golden sun setting over the horizon.

The colors of the sky reflected on the water, painting everything in shades of pink and orange.

I turned around immediately and tackled her with kisses, making her laugh.

"You did this?" I asked, smiling so hard my cheeks hurt.

She nodded, looking a little shy. "How's this date? I'm new to this, so I don't know what to do. If you don't like it, I can plan something else—"

Before she could finish, I wrapped my arms around her and hugged her tight.

"I love it," I whispered, pressing a kiss to her forehead.

Her whole body relaxed, and we sat down on the blanket, enjoying the food and each other's company as the sun disappeared into the ocean.

We finished our date and, instead of going back to Jennie's house, we went to mine. That night, I fell asleep in her arms, her embrace warm and protective.

When I woke up the next morning, I was still in Jennie's hug.

I smiled sleepily and pulled her even closer, as close as possible.

She stirred a little but didn't let go.

We'd been dating for a couple of weeks now, and everything felt so good, better than I had ever imagined.

She was currently lying in my bed, her head resting on my chest while her arms stayed wrapped tightly around me.

"Baby?" I whispered softly. She moved just slightly, enough for me to know she was listening.

"I love you," I said, smiling.

It was the first time I had ever said it to her. I'd been wanting to say it for days, waiting for the right moment, but I just couldn't hold it in anymore.

Of course, Jennie had already said it before me, she told me the day after she asked me out.

"Finally," Jennie teased, and I slapped her arm playfully. We both burst out laughing.

"I love you too, Lili," she replied, her voice full of sincerity.

My cheeks heated up, and I tried to hide my blush.

"Two people in love," she murmured, holding me tighter.

"Alone, holding each other, isolated from the world... that's beautiful."

I nodded, agreeing completely. It was Saturday morning, which meant we had no responsibilities, just a lazy day together.

We spent the whole day laughing, cuddling, and watching movies, enjoying the comfort of simply being with each other.

By the afternoon, Jennie had moved onto my lap, kissing me deeply. Her lips were soft but demanding, and I melted into the kiss.

Soon, her hand slid under my shirt, caressing my waist gently. A soft moan escaped my lips, and Jennie smirked against my mouth.

For the past few days, Jennie had been hinting that she wanted to take things further. She wanted to make love to me. But I had told her I was a virgin, and she understood. She never pressured me, though I could see how much she desired it, how much she desired me.

Every time she tried to hold back, she'd end up groaning in frustration, making me laugh at her adorable struggles.

Her phone suddenly rang, and Jennie groaned loudly in annoyance. Reluctantly, she got off my lap and picked it up.

"Sorry, Taehyung, but I said no!" she snapped.

"I'm with Lisa, and I love her too much to let her go. I never loved you. I'm sorry." With that, she hung up and tossed her phone aside.

I opened my arms for her, and she immediately collapsed into me, her body hitting mine so hard we both fell back onto the bed.

"I won't let you go, Lisa," she whispered, her voice trembling with emotion.

"Baby, you are worth it," I whispered back before kissing her deeply.

We ended up falling asleep together again, tangled in each other's arms.

"NO!" I woke up to Jennie screaming in the middle of the night.

My eyes shot open, and I glanced at the clock. It was 4:20 a.m.

"LEAVE HER ALONE!" Jennie yelled, thrashing in bed. Sweat covered her forehead, and her body shook uncontrollably.

"GET OUT!" she screamed again, her voice breaking.

I quickly sat up and moved closer. "Jennie?" I called softly, placing myself in her lap and hugging her tightly.

She jolted awake, panic flashing in her eyes as she looked around the room wildly. Her breaths came out sharp and fast, her hands trembling.

I cupped her face, but she flinched at my touch. My heart ached at the sight. "I'm right here, baby," I whispered soothingly.

Finally, she wrapped her arms around me, holding me as if I was the only thing keeping her grounded.

"I can't get that dream out of my head," she admitted shakily. "I'll sleep on the couch."

I kissed her softly, shaking my head. "I think I know how to make you forget it."

She blinked, confused. "H-How?"

I looked straight into her eyes, gathering my courage. "Make love to me."

Jennie's lips parted slightly as she swallowed hard.

"A-Are you sure?" she asked, her voice unsure but hopeful.

I nodded slowly, my heart pounding. "...Yes."

Her lips curved into a smirk, but her eyes softened with so much love.
