Coming Back To You | JENSOO [18+]

Chapter Nineteen: Explanations and Baseball Games🔞

When Lisa originally asked Jennie if she could rent her house instead of moving with the family of three, she didn't think about the fact that she would be alone for the first time in months. The silence was deafening, and the dark was too bright. She couldn't stop her mind from racing as she lay in bed.

It had been comforting having people she loved right down the hall. She knew at any point, she would have someone to talk to. She knew Jisoo wouldn't let anything harm her, and the security was something she didn't know she needed; until now. Now, she needed Jennie and Jisoo more than ever. She needed someone to talk to about the situation she found herself in.

Lisa felt conflicted, she loved Chaeyoung with everything in her. She wanted things to work out between them, but she didn't know how to give her the chance. She hadn't thought of her insecurities and fears when Chaeyoung asked her on a date. Instead, she quickly agreed, and decided she would join Chaeyoung in her old apartment for dinner tomorrow night. She was terrified to be alone in a room with Chaeyoung in a house full of people, how would she survive a date with the beautiful blonde?

"Fuck," Lisa growled rolling over to turn on the light. Picking up her phone, she sent out a text to the one person that wouldn't leave her mind.

Lisa🤍: Are you up?

Lisa waited impatiently for the response and thought about what she would say to get out of the date.

Chipmunk💩: Yes. Are you okay?

Lisa🤍: I don't know. I'm scared for tomorrow.

Chipmunk💩: Would it be easier if we went out to dinner instead of being alone here? We can meet at that Italian restaurant you like.

Lisa thought about the question. Being in public would help a lot. Her fear wasn't in talking to Chaeyoung, only that she would get physical, and the public space would naturally stop that from happening.

Chipmunk💩: We can reschedule when you feel more comfortable if you'd like.

Lisa sighed deeply at Chaeyoung's willingness to cancel their plans. Chaeyoung was never patient before, and the thought of changing plans would annoy her. Chaeyoung's patience with Lisa and handing her control of the pace of their relationship showed the change in Chaeyoung more than the actual words spoken.

Lisa🤍: Italian sounds good. We should try and spend time together. I'm just not ready to go to the apartment alone right now.

Chipmunk💩: I'll call in the morning and make reservations for 7. If you change your mind, let me know. I won't be upset.

Lisa🤍: I'll meet you there at 7. Thank you for understanding. Goodnight.

Chipmunk💩: Goodnight, Lisa.

Lisa set her phone down and turned out the lights before she laid back down. Finally feeling some relief from her current burdens, she slowly drifted off to sleep.

Lisa sat in the chair that Chaeyoung pulled out for her. Her nerves were back, but the soft look in Chaeyoung's eyes calmed her a little.

"Thank you for joining me," Chaeyoung said softly. Lisa noted the difference in Chaeyoung over the last few months. The once aggressive girl had become almost docile and quiet. "How was your day?"

"Well, I didn't go into the shop so that sucked. But, I did a guest lecture at SNU and that's always fun." Lisa smiled thinking about her day.

"Which topic was it this time?"
