RESIDENT MEATHEAD

chapter 17

"i can't believe she's making me keep us a secret!" seulgi whined. it's been four days and yes, after that wonderful date, she was asked by joohyun to keep it low profile for a bit. which meant no holding hands, no cheek kisses, and no flirting in the public.

seulgi understood though and respected her wishes, but that didn't mean she liked it. so, she's been whining all morning about it. although, seulgi did have fun turning the usually calm irene into a blushing mess everytime she passed her.

"you gotta understand her, dude. think about how many girls and how many guys will be wanting the both of you even more? remember when you two started dating before? bogum and taehyung were literally plotting on you! it's like they say, people love taken pussy. simple." lisa shrugged as seulgi thought on it. she did somewhat had a point. the two of them were some of the most popular girls at the school.

irene being a saint in everyone's eyes makes her very lovable. her beauty and the fact that she's been a good class president also comes into play. her calm and mysterious aura makes others somewhat intrigued. 'she really is everyone's favorite.' the hockey captain thought.

meanwhile, herself you either love her or hate her, especially with the boys of the school. she had a charm that the girls liked, although she and the boys didn't really get what that charm was. she just went with it. not to mention, she is captain of the varsity hockey team and she helped them win many games and championships.

"i know, but still. i wanna tell the whole world that we're together." the two thailanders shares a look between one another. "wooooow. she's really got you sprung. never thought i'd see the great snake charmer kang seulgi act like this before."

"what can i say? i'm in love." she says, swooning.

"look at the plus side though," bambam said, snapping her out of her thoughts, "at least you finally got what you always wanted since the tenth grade. having bae joohyun as your girlfriend."

seulgi grinned at the thought of them being official. she loved the thought of the future with her. she was at bliss. when she was around the older girl, she genuinely thinks that she brings out the best in her and she would be forever grateful to her.

as they stopped at her locker, she looks up at the two thailanders. "hey, lis. give these to hyun for me." she pulled out a bouquet of roses, half of it in red and the other in pink. she remembered the next day how her friends teased her about not getting traditional flowers for her lucky lady. then again, nothing about them was traditional. lisa grabbed them and smiled. "got it, capt."

meanwhile, irene was coming back from an early meeting with the counsel. she, however was barely paying attention due to a certain feline eyed hockey captain that she calls her girlfriend. after seulgi expressed her feelings and saying those three words, the brunette haired girl has been on cloud nine. she smiled to herself at the thought of her. seulgi really wasn't as she made herself seem. the latter was very adorable in fact.

unlike her past relationship, seulgi actually seemed interested in what she did. she'd listen to her rants if she had to. seulgi was also very clingy. she loved being around the older and always sat by her every chance she got. and then when they were alone, always made sure she was as close as possible. seulgi was very commited as well.

always made sure irene was comfortable, asked about her day, and always checked for her well being. sometimes, she didn't even have to tell her if something was wrong, seulgi just knew what and how to make her feel better. irene always wanted that in a person.

she was so engrossed into her thoughts that she didn't even notice jennie or sooyoung next to her. until one of them tapped her shoulder, making her jump. "geez, unnie. you were thinking really hard. what's got you smiling so hard?" jennie asked before sooyoung butted in, "it's not what, jennie. it's who."
