Emotionless

CHAPTER 26

WARNING ⚠️: VIOLENCE

LISA'S POV

"So it's been two weeks since we started dating and now we're officially girlfriends" Chaeyoung happily said while holding my hand and sipping from her coffee with the other

"I already know this. Why are you telling me?" I asked

"I'm not telling you. I'm telling Jennie since she doesn't know" Jennie glared at Chaeyoung

"I already knew and besides I'm happy for you two" She smiled at me, even though it looked forced

"Thanks" Chaeyoung smirked. "But can I ask you one question?"

"What?" Jennie sighed

"How come you still hang around us knowing you're the third wheel. Aren't you dating Steven?" I looked at Jennie too

"Like I said me and Lisa worked things out, so I'm hanging around you guys, because she's my friend" Chaeyoung just glared

"And besides, I've been getting tired of Steven and his attitude and the rest of his hateful friends, so I broke up with him" she answered smiling while resting her chin on her hands and staring at me

I looked into Jennie's eyes and had a feeling she was telling the truth, which isn't a good thing for me now

My thoughts were interrupted when I felt an arm snaking around my waist causing me to flinch a little and my heart to race

"Well good for you" Chaeyoung smiled, holding me

I watched as the two stared at each other

Why do I get the feeling they don't like each other?

"Bye!" Chaeyoung said cheerfully as she exited my car. I was going to drive off but she stopped me and ran to the driver-side window

She smiled and caught me off guard by planting a kiss on my lips. "I'll call you"

"Okay" I replied as I watched her run into her house

I drove off holding my lips once again. The kiss feels different. It always does when she kisses me. I keep expecting to feel something, but I don't. Her kisses do feel warm, soft, and gentle, but it doesn't make me feel anything. I still feel empty

But I've been doing good with my emotions now, which is great, but I can't shake the feeling that something's missing. Yeah, I like Chaeyoung, but there's something more. I want to feel completely happy...something I've been wanting

When I got home I went straight to my room nearly tripping over the papers that were still on my floor

I better pick them up now

I grabbed my trash can and began picking up the pieces one by one. Once I was done picking up the last piece, I sat on my bed looking at it. It was a drawing of Jennie. I studied all the details of her, I nearly forgot how pretty she is

Wait did I just call her pretty? Oh well. I might as well admit it, she is pretty

Instead of throwing the drawing away, I decided to put it in my sketchbook right by the other picture of her

Once I was done I walked to my desk and sat down and began drawing. A few hours passed, and I was nearly done with the picture, of a field

"Only one more thing left to add" I put down a pencil I was using to grab another I use for the small details but noticed I ran out, I guess

I need to stock up on more pencils and supplies

I got up from my desk and went downstairs to my parents

"Can I run to the store to buy more art supplies?" I asked

They looked at each other then checked the time, which was 9 o'clock. "I guess, but don't take long," Dad said as he dug in his pocket to get his wallet out. He pulled out fifty dollars and handed it to me. I took it and walked out the door

"Be safe!" My mom shouted before the door shut

I pulled out of the driveway and drove straight to a supply store that carried all the art supplies that I get and use

I ended up parking by a light post about fifty yards from the store. It was a decent walk to get inside the store from where I was parked

I quickly walked inside, grabbed a basket, and went straight to the art aisle. I looked around picking up and putting things in my basket

I began walking out of the aisle into the next one, but I accidentally ran into someone
