You're My Perfect (Jenlisa) COMPLETED

Chapter 33

It's been a week since Sam's accident, and Jennie has noticed a lot of changes in Lisa's attitude. Usually at lunch when they're at school, she'll be messing around with Jisoo or making some dorky jokes, but she's been incredibly quiet. Their friends always try to pull her into the conversation as a means of distraction, but Lisa always stays glued to Jennie's side, fiddling with her fingers.

While Jennie doesn't mind that she has all of Lisa's attention, she still thinks it's weird, because her girlfriend isn't normally like that.

"Hey, Jen," Jisoo nudges her when Lisa heads out of the room with Irene to get a drink. "Has she been quiet with you all week? Lisa, I mean."

"Yes," Jennie nods and taps on her leg, "I - um, when I walk her home, I'm the one doing all the talking, which is really weird because I'm usually the quiet one."

"Be there for her when she needs you, Jennie," Jisoo tells her, "she feels like she can't call you to come over if she's upset because she doesn't want to stress you out with unexpected plans. She told me that on the phone the other night."

"Really?" Jennie blinks in surprise. "But I'm supposed to be a good girlfriend and look after her when she's sad. How am I supposed to do that if she won't tell me she's upset?"

"Tell her that she can talk to you when she needs it," Jisoo explains, "then she'll call you and you can get your good girlfriend-ness on."

Jennie hums in thought and glances up to see Jisoo staring at something else. So, she follows her friends' gaze and her eyes land on Rosé, who is across the room talking to a friend.

"Why are you staring at Rosie?"

Jisoo tears her gaze away from their friend immediately. "I wasn't."

Jennie frowns. "Yes you were. I just saw you. Don't lie, lying is bad."

"Jen," Jisoo turns to her with an odd expression, and Jennie glances down at her feet. "Drop it. Okay?"

"But - why were you staring?" Jennie asks again, because she wants to know why, since she can't read body language as well as their other friends. "I don't understand."

"I wasn't," Jisoo argues, giving her a light shove, "shut up, Jen."

Jennie continues voicing her train of thought. "It's rude to stare, that's what my dad always says to my brother when we go out as a family and he stares at a girl. I remember I used to stare at Lili a lot when she wasn't looking. Oh, wait, that makes sense. Is that why? Do you like Rosie?"

"Oh my god, be quiet!" Jisoo shoves a hand over Jennie's mouth and pulls her into the art department's computer room, sitting her down in one of the desk chairs. "You can't tell her."

Jennie frowns to herself. "Tell her what?"

Jisoo rolls her eyes. "Tell her that I like her."

"Oh, I won't tell her if you don't want me to," Jennie promises, but then she realizes that she has the perfect opportunity to get Jisoo back. "You like her, though. So I can make fun of you, like you did to me when I liked Lili."

"Not in front of her. You can't do anything that might make her think I like her." Jisoo warns her. "I can't lose her, Rosé is one of my best friends and if she found out..."

"If she found out she could be your girlfriend. And then you'd both be really happy." Jennie finishes for her, because she thinks that'd be cute. "I bet you were looking at her ass earlier."

"Jennie. Shut up." Jisoo shoves her again and Jennie frowns, because she doesn't like that. "You're not supposed to be a teaser. You're supposed to be the tease-ee."
