23.

The two girls glanced around the room before making eye contact and giggling a bit. This place was definitely an expensive restaurant.

The interior designing was extraordinary. They obviously use rich wood to make their table and chairs along with the amazing choice in flooring and walls. There also was a small drinks bar in the corner which Chae found quite cute.

"This place..." Chaeyoung breathes, "This place is beautiful.. How did you afford this?"

Jennie raised one eyebrow at the dancer.

"Dumb question" Chae chuckled. The model reached across the table and took Chae's hand in hers.

"I'm sorry that's we haven't really had anytime to go out lately" Jennie sighed, her gaze lowering to the table, "I've been so busy with work and-"

"Jennie" Chaeyoung interrupted. The models eyes met Chae's again.

"I Don't really care. The only thing that matters is that we are here. Now. Together... Even if its not... Official..."

Chaeyoung went on.

"Look the point is, everyone gets busy, it does effect some things, but it doesn't really effect me... I all I want right now is to be here with you... Which I am, so that makes me the luckiest girl in Korea now..."

Jennie's heart warmed at the 24 year olds words.

"That's all I needed to hear..." Jennie smiled.

Chaeyoung smiled back then they heard the door to their private room open and two separate pair of footsteps headed over to them.

"Good evening, Miss Jennie Kim, Miss Park, My Name is Christopher, I'm the owner of this establishment, and this is Minho, one of your waiters for tonight, the other is Jisung, im sure you'll see him later"

Chaeyoung noted the look on Minho's face when this Jisung guy's name was mentioned.

"Anyway, feel free to a place your drink orders now" Chris explained before bowing and leaving the room.

Minho watched him leave before placing down two drink menu's and heading to the little bar that was in the corner of the room.

Jennie scanned the menu until she found a drink to suit her liking. Chaeyoung did the same, settling on a fruity drink while Jen chose a wine.

"Minho, we are ready to order" Jennie said happily. The waiter perked up at the sound of his name and walked over to the ladies.

They told him their choice in beverage and he set of to fufil their orders. But before he could get too far, Chaeyoung called him back.

"Is there something else I can get you, Miss Park?"

Chae smiled lightly and shook her head.

"No, I just had a sort of personal question for you"

Jennie looked over at her, slightly confused yet curious.

The waiter blinked at the young woman then cleared his throat.

"Uhm, what may that be?"

"Well, I hope this isn't too personal... But the way you reacted to Chris mentioning this 'Jisung' Boy, it just made me a bit curious" Chaeyoung chuckled.

Minho's face was red. He didn't realise that she picked up on how he reacted.

"Well, Jisung happens to be a close friend of mine and... " The waiter started before being cut off by Jennie's  raised eyebrows.

"OK! I like him a bit.. " Minho breaks away from his professional character for a second to confess that he does indeed, like this 'Jisung' guy.

"Thank you, thats all I needed to hear" Chaeyoung smiled at him once again before he headed off to fetch their drinks.

After a while, the girls had finished their drinks over a long, heartfelt conversation about dogs and now were growing hungry.

As if it was a cue, a smaller boy came through the door with another set of menus.

Chaeyoung watched Minho carefully when the boy entered. The moment Minho noticed who walked in, his face went a light shade of pink. Chaeyoung then knew that this new waiter was indeed, Jisung.

"Hello ladies" Jisung greeted, placing down the new menus.

He seemed to be a little bit more friendly and smooth compared to Minho who was professional and sweet. Chaeyoung could definitely see why the other waiter liked him.

After placing down the menus, the smaller waiter made his way over to the bar to converse with Minho.

Chae and Jen smiled at them before digging their eyes into the menu.

When they called Jisung over for him to get their orders, Chaeyoung could sense a pang on sadness in Minho's eyes as his gaze traveled after the shorter boy. When Jisung left to take the order to kitchen, Minho sighed quietly and continued his business by the bar.

~~~

Once their food arrived, they immediately started to eat.

The dancer finished first since she ordered a smaller dish so she decided to sit and watch Jisung flirt with Minho and Minho stutter and blush like a madman whenever the smaller boy would get close to his face.

Jennie finished as well and caught on to the fact that to two boys were getting a little too close for a professional environment.

"Uhm, Minho and Jisung, may Chaeyoung and I have a few moment alone please?" Jennie requested kindly.

The two waiters nodded and scrurried out of the room.

When Jennie heard the door close, she sighed in contentment.

"Their cute, aren't they?" Jennie smiled.

"Yea, I think I got a bit too invested in their relationship, though..." Chaeyoung agreed.

They made small talk for a bit before Jennie stood up from her seat and ventured out into the middle of the room.

Chaeyoung watched her.

"Chaeyoung, thanks you for coming with me tonight, it really means the world to me.... You mean the world to me"

The dancer's heart beated.

"I never thought that i would meet anyone that I would let close to me like this... I never thought I could love someone the way I love you.."

Chaeyoung's heart raced.

She said the 'L' word.

"So, when I ask you this, im hopping that the feelings are mutual and that, I won't regret this moment..."

Jennie turned around to face Chaeyoung, her heart beating out of her chest.

"Younggie.... Will you be my girlfriend?"

...

"Yes!"
