They become fast friends. Or, 'fast friends'.
It's blindingly obvious that Deb likes her, what with her shameless flirting and their constant conversation, and Jennie would be the first one to admit that there's at least an attraction there and she could possibly see it fester into something more.
There's a lot about her to like as well, with her unfiltered opinions, her easy humor and their mutual interests, conversation flowing easily between the two about anything between politics and smaller, more menial things.
It helps that she's beautiful too.
So, when she asks her out, Jennie doesn't hesitate, smile mirroring the one Deb wears.
She tries to keep it lowkey, knowing the moment any of the girls find out, she wouldn't hear the end of it, and that's exactly what happens when Irene finds out about the date they went on.
"I can't believe you didn't tell us!" Irene punches her square in the arm.
Jennie letting out an affronted 'Ow!' as she rubs at the sore spot, looking towards Roseanne for support, whose nonchalant shrug tells her that she's fighting this battle on her own.
They're lounging around Jisoo and Lisa's kitchen in their dorm, having just ordered pizza for lunch, per Lisa's request, who isn't even here yet. Jennie had attempted to distract them with putting on Netflix on her laptop, but Irene doesn't have it.
"Spill," she all but demands, "Who is she? What's she like? What did you two gays do?" Irene bombards her with questions, Rosie adding on a "Do tell," while Jisoo seems impartial to the conversation.
And after a little more prodding and a bribe of lunch on Irene in exchange for information, Jennie tells them how their dinner plans failed to come through and instead, they'd sat in Deb's car, ate takeout, talking and ranting about pretty much everything until she'd driven her home, pressing a kiss to her lips with the end of the date.
"And she's like, really pretty- like model pretty. She's got these pretty brown eyes and her brown hair and-yeah."
Rosie smiles softly back at her, but Irene's grin looks downright smug. Her mouth falls open likely to tease Jennie mercilessly about the whole thing when Jisoo cuts in with a:
"Sounds like Lisa."
"What?"
Jisoo shrugs, eyes not really meeting Jennie's. "Just saying. She sounds kind of like Lisa. Brown eyes, brown hair, beautiful."
"Oh my god! She does!" Irene squeals excitedly, and Jennie can see how her thoughts go through unfiltered as they reach her mouth, and as the words are on the tip of her tongue, Jennie already cringes pre-emptively. "You so have a type!"
She can feel the flush that rises in her face, but she thanks her lucky stars that Lisa isn't here yet, that she wasn't here to witness that.
"I don't have a type," she refutes, smacking Irene on the arm who doesn't look at all fazed as she shoots her a look that hopefully sends the message that says 'Jisoo and Lisa are best friends and you can't just say things like that!', but just in case it isn't clear, Jennie defends that, "I don't- I never like-liked Lisa."
