30 days fiance // chaelisa + jensoo

chapter 3

"So how do we do this again?"

Lisa was down on one knee, the ring box in hand and Chaeyoung was pretending to be in a state of shock, which was totally unbelievable. Jisoo had set up the camera, wanting to videotape everything so that Chaeyoung could show her parents that their friends were in on it and that they had helped to set things up. Jennie was growing frustrated, having to help Jisoo adjust the camera, the setting of the environment while Ashley carried all their belongings and the items needed to do the video.

"Chaeyoung... stop looking as if the whole world is going to end. Pretend to cry or something. Jesus... someone is proposing to you and you just stand there like it's the worst thing in the world."

"Are you done? My knees are hurting." Lisa complains, Jisoo taking her own sweet time to get the camera adjusted.

"Okay, we're good. Now, do you remember what to say exactly?"

"Yes yes." Lisa snaps, knowing this was the tenth time recording this for they couldn't get it right.

They couldn't get it right because Chaeyoung kept thinking about their kiss, where sparks flew into the air, and she had lost all sense of concentration. Lisa, on the other hand, had been burning with emotions ever since she kissed Chaeyoung. She kept repeating to herself that she couldn't love this girl. This girl would walk away just like the last one did. And the one before. And Lisa couldn't take another heartbreak since then. But Chaeyoung, Chaeyoung was a believer in true love. That she was one who would stick through thick and thin with the person she loved. But then again, Lisa was just a fiancé for hire. Nothing more.

"Alrighty then. Let's get this done right, so we can all go and eat. It's lunch time and a good video editor needs her stomach full." Jisoo states, only for Jennie to snort.

"Since this morning, the only thing you have been thinking about is that stomach of yours. You should marry a chef instead. Probably would feed you until you grow old and fat."

"You bitch. My stomach can eat you alive!"

"Hey lovebirds... back to this proposal thing can? You have fucking 30 days to wage your wars on each other while us two only have four days, less than that to get this relationship of ours to work. So would you please for the love of god, get your heads out of your asses will ya?"

Lisa yelled at the two, making Ashley shut her mouth immediately for she wanted to comment on how they deserved to be scolded, Jisoo's hands were shaking on the camera and Jennie all but looked away, tugging at her sleeves uncomfortably. She hadn't seen her sister snap like that for quite some time, usually seeing her like this at work but never outside. Lisa didn't realise that she had gripped the ring box hard after losing her cool, Chaeyoung had to walk over and place her hand on her shoulders to get her to calm down. Instantly, Lisa felt herself calm down, making her sigh in relief for she felt safe. She felt loved. Chaeyoung wasn't afraid that the brunette had snapped. In fact, they actually were running out of time and by the looks of it, if they were going to get to know each other, might as well offer Lisa and Jennie to stay for the rest of the nights so that they could all get to know each other and their habits.

"I'm sorry. It's just..."

"No Lisa. We get it. We are really on time constraint and we really need to get this all done and settled so we can move on to the next things that are on our list to do. Guys please, let's just work together to get this settled so we can concentrate on other things needed?" Chaeyoung turned to look at the other three who nodded their heads in understanding.

Lisa felt a sense of relief that at least Chaeyoung understood her reasoning for snapping and they needed to get things done. Four days wasn't a lot of time. So once Jisoo gave the thumbs up, Lisa adjusted herself and straightened herself up before looking at Chaeyoung. A certain sense of calmness washed over her, her breath taken away when blue met green, their eyes suddenly feeling vulnerable all of a sudden. This was something entirely different. It felt right that she was proposing to Chaeyoung. Somehow it didn't feel weird. It felt warming and satisfying.
