Not You | JENNIE

Astronomy

Four Years Later

She said no. Obviously. She still got on that plane and she left. When I walked back to the car where the gang were I let myself cry. She didn't have the choice to stay and I couldn't follow her.

After everything dyed down like everything does, I went off to college. I didn't pursue music like I wanted to but I did travel around the world. I wrote about everything I saw and the many people I've met.

I even wrote a couple books about the journey. I even wrote one about Jennie, it was actually my best sellers and it was just a about how I sometimes pictured her being here with me. How I would sometimes see her throw the lenses of the cameras I look into. How I would hear her laugh anytime I would here bells ring. And how when winter comes I still feel the soft polyester fabric being laid over my shoulders. Everything I did she was right there. You would think after four years you would move on but how could I when she was the only thing that kept me living for, for a while.

She isn't what kept me motivated to breath next mornings air but she definitely is my inspiration to see more then life has given to me. The book I wrote about our ups and downs was called "Heather".
I couldn't remember where the name came from but it still sounds better then Jennie. That was gonna be the original name but I was advised otherwise.

"So tell us Y/N, what was your inspiration for your life changing book" I laughed at the interviewers question

"My inspiration? My inspiration was my experience and views I had lived in my few years of life. I loved someone and lost so much but I still continued and I felt motivated that I could always do it again because I've done it before" I wasn't sure if they understood what that meant but as long as I understood the meaning then the meaning was perfect.

The interview was just then asking me a bunch of questions, trying to get me to drop a name of who the book was based off of but I wouldn't budge. During my few years of being in the public eye I hadn't once spoken of her.

I did wonder at times what she was doing at the moment when I thought of her. Could she be wondering about me, had she remembered a silly moment we shared like I do at times, or has she forgotten me and our past together.

Does she know that I've written this book? Does she know if it's about her? Has she read it? What she thinks of it? Why did I care?

I would sometime read what I've written and smile picturing every little detail about her.

Time skip

"Welcome back!" I ran into Tae's arms and laughed as he picked me up.

"Thanks for picking me up from the airport Tae, I know we haven't talked for awhile" he took my bags and throw them in his trunk

"It's alright pal, I know being a famous writer must keep you busy so it's cool. I'm just glad that you've decided to come back to our little town" we drove off and as we passed the places that I have written in my book it felt sort of nostalgic and unrealistic. I've read about them so much that it feels weird to actually see them again. As if the only memories I had left was from those pages.

We even pasted our old apartments. I laughed as I remember how I met Tae on the horrible day. I had almost forgotten why I was upset that day.
Then we past by the club where I met Chungha, I actually saw her not that long ago. We bumped into each other in Paris. She had taken her dancing to a professional level and was now dancing for people other then horny old men. She said she stopped talking to her family but made some great friends who she considered family. I was happy for her and I was glad she grew from all her troubles.

"Is that our little Y/N?" Once I got out of the car I saw Lisa and Seulgi waiting for me. We jumped up and down like high school girls. We walked into the restaurant that we were in front of. Once was sat down we began to catch up on everything that has happened after graduation. Lisa was going strong with Jisoo and we're planing on going to Korea to help out with Jisoo's family business and our wonderful dancing queen Seulgi, got a job as an academy teacher. She was gonna teach little ones how to own the dance floor like she has. Tae had reconnect with his brother and they regularly have breakfast together.

"So besides the book, what has been going on Y/N"
I took a long sip of my drink before answering Lisa.

"Nothin much, I was thinking of going back to London and settling down there. I might write another book but I still don't have any ideas." They all smiled at each other's as the started to pitch new ideas for the book. They wanted spin offs of their characters and wanted to play a huge part in the book. I laughed and took my book out to write notes but my pen was out ink. I walked up to the cashier and asked for a pen. She asked for a minute and I waited as she finished with the the costumer she was with.

"Thanks you, have a wonderful day" the cashier said to the girl and as the women turned around I almost forgot how the English language worked.

"Y/N?"

"Jennie"

"Ma'am?" I looked over to the cashier and took the pen from her. I thanked her and looked at Jennie who was still looking at me. She hadn't changed one bit. Beside the new tone of brown her hair was. I still remember the day she tried dying it blonde, she ended up getting tired of it the next day and went back to black.

"Y/N, it's nice to see you again" she held her hand and I shook it. Her hand was warm and soft. Once I felt like I had held it for too long I let go. I haven't felt that warmth for a long time, it felt unfamiliar yet extremely welcoming.

"Nice seeing you too, Jennie" I smiled at her and and she smiled back.

"When did you get back?" She asked

"Today, you?"

"I came back a year ago. My mother divorced and I came back to comfort her" She swayed back and forth and the bag she held onto was swinging with her.

"Sorry to hear about your mother's divorce, hope she's feeling better now" I never know how to respond to things like this so I just simply wish them a better future. What do people normally say when someone says something bad has happened to them?

"Yeah she's doing much better and how have you've been?"

"Great, I've been traveling for a while I wanted to come back once more before I finally settled down"

"You're getting married?" She broke the long eye contact we've been having and looked towards my hand.

"No, I'm just a bit tired of moving so much. I want to have something solid for sometime" she nodded her head as if she was agreeing with me. I looked at her hands and noticed that there was no ring. Not sure why but I was actually happy about that.

After sometime of our very slow conversation, I said goodbye and walked back to my friends who were all giggling like children.

"Did you see the book she was holding,Y/N"

"I wasn't really paying attention to anything that was happening if I'm being honest" I was still in a bit of a shock after seeing her after so long

"She had your book in her hands" I looked back and noticed that she was looking at us direction. I looked at the book on the table and it was true. She had my book. She lifted up the book so that I could see the cover. I felt my face burn up. I hid my face in my hands and turned to my laughing friends.

"So I'm guessing the next book is gonna be" before Tae could finish his sentence the girls do it for him

"A SEQUEL!!!"

Sorry for the long wait. Hope you guys enjoyed reading and thanks for reading my trash. Means a lot.

Goodbye! For Now ;)
