You're My Perfect (Jenlisa) COMPLETED

Chapter 18

"Okay, so this is kind of dumb, but in my defence it seemed like a good idea when I thought of it." Lisa says, leading Jennie out to her back yard. "Okay. Open your eyes."

When Jennie opens her eyes and looks at the sight in front of her, Lisa takes in her expression to gauge her opinion.

"It's a tent."

"Yeah. Ta-da." Lisa nods and spreads her arms out as if she's presenting a million gold bars to her girlfriend. Really, it's just a badly pitched two man tent in the centre of her back yard. "I thought since it's been three months since our first date tomorrow, we could do something special. I was considering camping on the beach but I decided that it'd make more sense to camp here, because we have a functional toilet and a kitchen three feet away. And my bedroom, if we're too uncomfortable."

"We're going to camp in your back yard?" Jennie asks, and it's not until she says it out loud that Lisa realises that yeah, it was kind of a dumb idea. "Okay, I guess. I've never camped before, so this could be fun."

"Are you sure? It was kind of a dumb idea now that I think about it." Lisa looks over to the depressed looking tent. "I think I just wanted to be really cheesy and romantic but it's not working at all, is it?"

"Yes, it's working," Jennie walks over to the tent and climbs in it, sitting down on the left side on the sleeping bag that was supposed to be Lisa's. But whatever, it's not like Lisa isn't going to conveniently try to get into the same sleeping bag as her anyway. "I think it will be fun to sleep in here. But can we go inside and watch TV? I don't really know what else we can do in a tent aside from sleep."

Lisa can think of a few things, but she's definitely not going to voice those to Jennie. No way. Even if she said it jokingly, it might frighten her girlfriend and that's the last thing she wants to do.

"Actually, I have an extension lead here so we can use my laptop and watch movies in the tent. And I've already ordered pizza and put a delivery time for half six, and we can eat that in here. Apologies in advance if the tent collapses on us in the middle of the night, because it was a lot harder to put up than it seemed and I don't think I did it right."

"You really planned everything, didn't you?" Jennie opens up Lisa's laptop, which is in the corner of the tent, and types in the younger girl's password. Lisa doesn't ask how she knows that. "Can we watch Harry Potter? I was re-reading the books the other day."

"Of course we can watch it," Lisa gets into the tent and places herself in between the two sleeping bags, because she's definitely sharing one with Jennie later. To be honest, she doesn't even know why she got two out. "We'll start from Philosopher's Stone and watch chronologically."

"Okay." Jennie says, typing something into the search bar. "Do you have my old sketchbook, by the way? You haven't given it back to me yet and I was wondering why."

"It's upstairs in my room. I hid it because I didn't want Sam grabbing it and ripping anything." Lisa admits, not adding the part where she pulls it out from under her bed virtually every night to look through Jennie's sketches before she sleeps. "I look through it a lot, though. There's this one drawing - I think you must've done it at lunchtime or something - that's of me, Irene, Jisoo and Rosé, and we're just talking like we usually do but you added loads of little things and I really love that one in particular because it's kind of like I'm seeing things through your perspective. Then again, you did tell me your sketchbook is like a part of your soul, so I guess it's kind of obviously in your perspective."

"I think - um, I think I want you to keep it." Jennie murmurs, looking down at her feet. "I want you to keep my old sketchbook and look after it because it's a part of my soul and I trust you with it."
