"looks like we're gonna see each other more often." jennie said as she approached me after the bell rang.

i nodded. "look," i said straightforwardly, "my grades aren't that great in spanish, but i intend to get a decent grade on this project, alright? i need to pass this class. i'll send you all the research and the text. just learn it for our oral, okay?"

"what?" jennie's smile turned into a frown. "why are you saying you'll just send me the whole work? this is a team project... do you not want to work with me?"

i snorted. "you never work."

"what tells you i'll do the same this time? and you didn't answer my question: do you not want to work with me?" she looked somewhat, dare i say, hurt by my answer.

"people like you don't work and don't tend to change their habits. to answer your question: i don't know. i hate working with people who never participate in group projects."

"well, i'm not one of those people and you'll love having me as your teammate." she grinned for some reason.

"right." i said, skeptical about her statements. i saw a familiar dark haired girl at the other end of the hallway. "well, i better leave you alone with your girlfriend, she's probably looking for you... also, go get that cut of yours looked at. it might get infected if you don't do anything."

i started to walk away, but jennie still continued talking. "she's not my girlfriend. have you forgotten that you're my girlfriend?"

i turned around and came face to face with a smirking jennie. i cocked an eyebrow. "what are you talking about?"

"do you not remember me introducing you to my parents as my girlfriend? and the amazing story about how i fell head over heels for you?"

"dude, that was a lie. we were pretending to date for your dumb fancy dinner. you said so yourself. and if sabina isn't your girlfriend, who is she?"

"i said we'd go back to our normal lives, but i didn't say we'd go back to our normal lives as friends." she smirked. "as for sabina, well, my girlfriend doesn't seem to want to have anything to do with me since she's been practically ignoring me for the last month. a girl has needs you know. so i got a side chick."

"okay, i never agreed to being your girlfriend. hell, you never even properly asked me out. second, we were fake girlfriends for one night. third, what the fuck? side chick? are you kidding me? what kind of girlfriend are you?"

"the kind who dates a girl called kim jisoo, a girlfriend who really sucks because she won't pay attention to her girlfriend."

"i'm not your girlfriend, jennie." i said sternly.

"yes, you are my girlfriend."

"you're dating jennie kim?!" suddenly another voice yelled. i turned around and saw my best friend with a shocked expression. many students looked at us due to chaeyoung's loud voice.

"lower your tone, will you?" i hissed. "and no, we are not dating."

"then, why would jennie say you are. everyone knows jennie doesn't do girlfriends. she only has hookups... no offence to you jennie."

"none taken." jennie shrugged it off. "and you're right. i don't usually get girlfriends so if i say i have one, that means i'm telling the truth." she smiled.

"no you are not telling the truth." i looked at chaeyoung this time. "jennie lied to her parents and said we were dating so they would stop nagging her. it was just that one night. we are not dating. she's with that girl who's coming closer. i said and nodded in sabina's direction.

"babe, i already told you. sabina is just a side chick."

"the hell? don't babe me, i'm not your babe." jennie was getting more and more on my nerves.

"hi, jennie-baby!" sabina cheerfully said as she hugged jennie from the back.

"bye, jennie." i smiled, glad that sabina served as a distraction for me to leave this situation. "don't forget to get your injury checked."

"why are you so upset over jennie calling you her girlfriend? she's so hot!" chaeyoung asked me as we walked away.

"i don't know... it just does. maybe i'm pms-ing" i replied.

chaeyoung giggled. "who's that sabina girl anyways?"

i told chaeyoung everything that happened from before spanish class to the moment she arrived. "you two are weird people... you belong together."
