Silence enveloped them since the whole ride started. Jennie pouted as she side eyed the driving blonde beside her, she felt uneasy with the sudden change of the Park's demeanor. And the sinking feeling inside her is starting to suffocate her.

Chaeyoung had her brows furrowed, eyes narrowing while her jaws are clenching, not to mention she's clutching the steering wheel. Jennie's thankful that atleast the blonde is not increasing the speed but it doesn't change the fact that the blonde still looks totally intimidating and scary.

'Is she mad at me?' Jennie thought, 'I didn't force her to give me a ride, she insisted!'

Minutes passed and Jennie couldn't take it anymore, so she took the courage to break the silence.

"Pull over." Jennie bit her lip.

Chaeyoung looked at Jennie with questioning eyes.

"Please pull over."

Chaeyoung sighed before she obliged.

She then looked at the brunette with furrowed brows, but didn't say anything.

Jennie sighed and unbuckled the seatbelt before she met her gaze.

"I'm grateful for your help and the ride, but you could've just told me if you don't wanna drive me home, I would understand. Thank you and you have a good night." the brunette said before descending the blonde's ride.

Chaeyoung wasn't able to say anything, she was dumbfounded of the brunette's actions. But what surprised her more are her reflexes.

She was pissed for a certain reason, and all she's thinking is to ease that feeling, but this brunette seems to have a different plan, and the blonde could only let out a sigh.

She shook her head as she quickly alighted her car, she felt the sting in her chest as she saw the brunette standing on the sidewalk, hugging her unprotected self from the cold breeze. Her jaws clenched as she squeezed her eyes close before walking her way to the brunette.

'What is she doing? It's freaking cold!'  the brunette knitted her brows as she watch Chaeyoung removing her letterman, rock hard abs once again on full display.

Jennie flushed red and bit her lip before looking away.

"You can go now, Park. I can manage from here."

Chaeyoung stopped on her tracks few steps away from her, then stared at her for good couple of seconds before she spoke, "Do you really think I'll leave you here?"

"It's okay, you can go first. I'll just hail a cab."

"It's dark and it's late, Kim."

"I know. But I'll be able to manage, thank you. You can go—oh jeez!" She shivered as she felt the cold breeze blew her skin.

"Tsk!" Chaeyoung clenched her jaw as she stepped closer, stopping before her, wrapping the letterman on the brunette's  shoulder in one swift movement.

Jennie flushed red with the blonde's action, she then lifted her gaze meeting Chaeyoung's, suddenly feeling warm, not knowing if it's due to the thick letterman protecting her from the cold or the gray eyes piercing hers.

"P-Park," She stuttered, feeling the need to blink but couldn't, "..You don't have to—"

"Let's go." Chaeyoung said, cutting her off.
