The next day, Y/N wake up actually feeling fully rested for once. Her head no longer throbs, and she finds that there's a slight spring to her step. Seems as if Nayeon really eased her worries yesterday more than they both realized.

Getting ready for the day takes Y/N no time at all, and she figures she'll spend it doing something exciting. Since they have another council in a few days, perhaps Y/N can convince one of them to take her out of the house for a little bit, even if it's just for an hour or so.

An idea strikes Y/N then. Perhaps she'll ask Jennie to take her out to see Brego(The horse) once more, considering she hasn't seen her horse in a little while.

Besides, they'd be together the whole time, so it's not like Miyeon could just show up out of the blue and attack her.

Which is exactly how Y/N finds herself brushing up against that all too familiar black string in the early hours of the afternoon.

'Is everything alright, hon?' Always, Y/N's comfort and wellbeing are the first things on Jennie's mind.

'Of course,' Y/N smile, quick to reassure Jennie. 'I was just wondering where you were.'

'Oh.' The genuine surprise Y/N can hear in Jennie's voice has her chuckling, and she knows that it's pleasant on Jennie's part, nonetheless.
Y/N never really inquired about where any of them are in the house before, simply wandering around until she spotted one of them, or they found her.

'I'm in my art room, hon. You're more than welcome to come and join me, if you'd like.' Jennie offered.

Y/N's breath hitches as her heart positively flutters in her chest. She has been meaning to ask Jennie to show her the art room as of late, but Y/N just hasn't found a way to bring it up.

Y/N never want to seem pushy or entitled about entering Jennie's own space, which is why it makes her so unbelievably happy now that the girl's inviting her into her studio.

'I'll be right there.' Y/N smile faintly, already thinking to herself how this is a much better way to spend her day than she originally had planned. Perhaps if there's time, she can still do both. It is quite early in the afternoon, after all.

Keeping her mind open to Jennie, Y/N begins to make her way towards their side of the house and upstairs to Jennie's art room.

Once outside the door, Y/N raises her hand to knock, only for Jennie to suddenly be standing before her in the open archway.

A soft smile rests on Jennie's face as she chuckles at Y/N's surprised expression.

"I heard you coming," Jennie's voice is low, a gentle rumble as she steps aside for the moment. "Please, come in."

The demon's heart positively warms as she sees Y/N smile faintly at her, slowly crossing the threshold into the room.

The whole while Y/N had been walking over here, Jennie could hear the excitement lingering in Y/N's thoughts at her showing Y/N her art.

A fact of which could not have made Jennie giddier, or any more nervous than she already is.

Sure, Jennie is more than willing to show her anything and everything of her art if Y/N asks, but there will always be that lingering uncertainty within herself surrounding how Y/N may react.
