Emotionless

CHAPTER 37

CHAEYOUNG POV

I was on my way to school but decided to make a quick detour somewhere. I got out my phone and was going to send Lisa a quick text, telling her where I was going, but decided not to because I was driving. I'll text her when I'm not driving

I pulled into the empty parking lot of the old craft store and walked to the crime scene that was still tapped off by the cops, but the tape was blowing off

This just goes to show that none of the cops come back and investigate more

These cops are shit

I began walking towards the market off the area and tore the rest of the tape off. I then stood there and began studying everything as I was thinking about the incident that took place

I looked at every marked spot on the ground and almost started crying when I saw stained blood in certain spots

Gosh, I wish I was with Lisa that night so I could've protected her. But now's not the time to think about this

I took a deep breath and continued studying everything once again. I spent hours in that parking lot coming up with nothing

What am I doing anyway? How the heck am I supposed to find evidence to catch the guy, even though I'm pretty sure it was Steven, I have no clue where to start or look

I paced back and forth as I tried thinking of something, but came up with nothing

"Come on think! Think!" I said to myself, but that didn't help. I stopped and stood in my spot and just yelled out of frustration

I began breathing heavily and started calming myself down, by thinking of Lisa the things she could be saying while watching me flip out. My eyes widened when I remembered I forgot to text her back

I decided to leave my investigation for another day and quickly ran to my car and got in. But when I reached into my pockets for my keys, I realized they weren't there

"Where the heck are my keys?"

I then sat there and something popped into my head

"OF COURSE!" I yelled. I remember they mentioned that they couldn't find her keys meaning the guy could still possibly have them. I smiled and got out of my car and began searching for the keys, mine including

I spat a couple more hours searching every part of the parking lot but found nothing, but my keys. I sighed and checked the time and saw the school was out meaning Lisa is at home

I got in my car and headed straight to her house to tell her what I just thought of and my idea to catch the guy

I couldn't help but smile as I told Lisa my plan. "I'm gonna sneak into the guy's house and look at them"

She quickly sat up with a questioned look on her face. "How do you know where the guy lives?"

"That's easy, because I'm positive the guy who did it was Steven, so I'm going to his house first"

She just looked at me, probably thinking how crazy I am, but I didn't care. "Can we talk about something else for a while?" She asked rubbing her temple

Whoops, I didn't mean to give her headaches. I feel bad now

I nodded my head and began looking around, but I stopped when I noticed her sketchbook laying wide open

I smiled to myself because for some reason she never let me look through it. She's so talented. I don't know why she wouldn't let me look through this?

I saw a couple of beautiful drawings which caused me to smile in awe, but it dropped when I saw a page with a familiar face

Why does she have a drawing of Jennie?

I turned the next page and my heart dropped a little, not only does she have one, but two. I also remember seeing this similar drawing crumpled up on her floor. I just assumed it was crumpled because she was over Jennie, I guess not since she kept it

I heard the quick shuffling of feet behind me and saw the book quickly close as Lisa took it away

I watched as she put it in a drawer by her bed and then continued to say. "No one is allowed to look through my sketchbook. That's private" she said then paused for a bit like a quick memory came to her mind. She seems easier to read today for some reason

I nodded my head, but feeling curious I asked. "How come you have a drawing of Jennie in your sketchbook?"

"She begged me to draw her and I agreed because she was annoyed about it"

I nodded my head because I understand how annoying Jennie can get, but I just couldn't shake the feeling that if she drew her, how come she kept the drawing

I got up from my seat and walked over to Lisa and sat on the bed beside her. "Lisa do you have feelings for Jennie?"

She stiffened in her spot for a second, but then scrunched up her nose. "No, I don't. I don't even know her and she's too annoying for me"

I sighed not knowing if I wanted to believe her or not, but my heart couldn't handle the thought of me thinking that Lisa does like Jennie, because deep down she does and I wasn't ready to feel that pain yet

LISA'S POV

She nodded her head. "I'm glad we cleared that up, so can I kiss you?" She asked while smiling. Her question caught me off guard which made my face heat up for some reason

Gosh I hate feelings

"I guess," I said

She looked into my eyes then quickly got off my bed and turned slow music and held her hand out

What is she wanting? Also, slow music is kind of annoying

I looked at her as she continued sitting there with her hand held out. "What? Do you want a high five or something?"

She rolled her eyes and smiled. "No, I want you to grab my hand so we can dance"

"I'm good," I said bluntly as I sat on her bed staring at her

Who dances in their room?

She then grabbed my hand and pulled me closer to her. "No is not an option" she smirked

When did she get like this? And why are my cheeks warming up again? I began swaying with her which was weird and after a few seconds of this, I asked. "Can we be done yet? I'm bored"

She ignored me so I finally gave up and decided to let her do this so we can get this done and over with. I then zoned out and started thinking about Steven and what he did to me, but my thought was interrupted when Chaeyoung grabbed my chin softly and made me turn to look into her eyes

This was the first time I paid attention to her eyes and I have to say they aren't that bad looking, but it's not the same as Jennie's

Wait for what?

While I was busy zoned out forgetting I was looking into Chaeyoung's eyes I was caught off guard when I felt warm soft lips on mine. I began kissing her back and like always it was nice and it did bring back memories

Not of mine and Chaeyoung's past kisses, because I remember those, but it reminded me of Jennie's. Her kiss just reminded me that for some reason Jennie's kisses were better

She slowly broke off our kiss and looked into my eyes lovely again. "I love you" I held my lips and thought about what she said

Love? Still a strange word I can't fully understand and it's even stranger because hearing it from Chaeyoung was different from usual. She's said it before, but it was different this time

I then thought about Jennie and how she said she loved me and for some reason, my heart jumped a little at the thought of it. Wait why am I thinking about Jennie while my girlfriend is here? Why do I care enough that I'm even comparing them? Why am I even thinking about Jennie anyway?!

What the heck is going on?!
