"Okay, Jeong run through this with me one last time, please?" Chaeyoung fumbled through a few sheets of paper she held in her palms, which were becoming increasingly clammy, courtesy of her nerves.

Jeongyeon sat opposite her, a bored expression plastered on her face due to the fact she had been helping the younger girl write apology letters for over an hour, at the expense of her Physics class.

"Nope, we've gone through this so many times. Let's go now! Let's find Jennie first! Lessons should be just about finishing!" Jeongyeon shook her head and pulled up Chaeyoung from her seat, who followed the older girl, whining in defeat.

Both girls trekked through the hallways until Jeongyeon suddenly leaped forward with a burst of speed, dragging an unwilling Chaeyoung alongside her.

"Jennie! Come here a second!"

Jennie's head turned around, hearing her name being called, grinning as she saw Jeongyeon, but the smile faltering as Chaeyoung caught her sight.

"Hey, um what's up?" She asked hesitantly, trying to avoid eye contact with the younger girl.

"Chaeyoung has something to say to you." Jeongyeon pushed the said girl forward.

"Oh yeah. Um... I'mreallysorryforthewayIactedearlieritwasreallyrude," Chaeyoung mumbled under her breath, almost rapping the words at high speed.

"I'm sorry? I didn't quite catch that?" Jennie gave her a playful smirk and cupped her ear.

Sighing in defeat, Chaeyoung began again. "Look, I'm sorry for being rude earlier. I was just angry and got caught in the moment. I really didn't mean it, I swear."

Jennie nodded, seemingly content with the apology. "No problem Chae. Friends?"

"Yeah, whatever, friends."

Jeongyeon nodded in approval and grabbed Chaeyoung's arm again.

"Now let's find Jihyo!"

Since academic hours were over for the day, Jennie made her way over to Jihyo and Nayeon's apartment as previously discussed. She unlocked the door and crept in, smiling as she saw Nayeon sprawled on the sofa, her mouth open as she snored, blissfully unaware of her visitor.

"Nayeonnie! Wake up!" Jennie shook Nayeon's shoulder, jolting her awake and provoke a small yelp of shock from her mouth.

"Jennie what the fuck?" Nayeon shoved the girl off of her and sat up, utterly disgruntled.

"You're the one who told me to come over, my love." She poked at Nayeon's cheeks, avoiding her swatting hands. "Now spill. Tell me everything! Who was it."

"Mmmm," Nayeon mumbled inaudibly.

"Come again?"

"It's Momo, okay? I like Momo. There, I said it."

Jennie clapped in joy, grinning gleefully. "I knew it! You guys would be cute together. Are you a thing yet?"

Nayeon shook her head with a frown. "We haven't really spoken about it. We were both drunk when we slept together and she had to leave pretty quickly this morning so we haven't had a chance to discuss it."

Grabbing hold of Nayeon's shoulder (again), Jennie firmly shook her, hoping to tap some sense into her brain.

"Im Nayeon? Wake up. Get it together. Then go get your girl, okay?"

"Let me sleep, then I will-  OW!"

Nayeon lay in a painful heap on the floor, Jennie having pushed her in frustration.
