26 chanel fashion event
it was a mess between chaeyoung, a model, chanel's ambassador jennie kim and the world's number one fashion icon. of course, chaeyoung wasn't aware in any of this knick knacks in fashions and celebrity life. all she wanted was for this to end and go back to her seat.
but indeed she was also afraid of the woman's intimidating demeanor, an aura of royalty with a lion's presence.
after jennie spilling the wine, the girl named charlotte was a whole mess. her white dress covered in red liquid as jennie stood there without any emotion shown in her eyes, almost as if she never cared if this come out of the news because she's that powerful. charlotte screamed and left the place while cameras followed her, leaving them finally at peace with all the flash and snaps.
"chéri? what's going on? chaeyoung?" jisoo's voice emerged from the crowd and saw chaeyoung with jennie.
"oh mon amour. it's nothing, just charlotte and her annoying drama." jennie rolled her eyes. jisoo approached jennie arms wide open, and the once intimidating woman chaeyoung had seen disappeared like a bubble. she clinged onto jisoo, pouting like the biggest baby.
releasing their embrace, jennie faced chaeyoung. "you must be jisoo's friend, i've been wanting to meet you. and next time just walk by and ignore those kinds of people. they're annoying to the ears."
chaeyoung had her jaw dropped seeing how this woman is jisoo's girlfriend. no wonder they're a match for each other, no man can stand them. but she still haven't got a clue who she was.
seconds later jeongguk appeared in the scene looking quite worried at chaeyoung who's getting pale. "what'd you do to her jennie?" he asks.
"no, she saved me actually." chaeyoung corrected.
"is it charlotte again? that girl never learns her lesson. are you sure you're alright?" jeongguk checked her out from head to toe, making sure she didn't have any scratches.
"i'm fine, really... just... a bit shocked." she said.
"can we all take a seat now? i've been dying to see the fall collection now." jennie complained, her hand on jisoo's. jeongguk looked at chaeyoung for assurance, and she nods. the four all head to their respective seats and watched the fashion event till the end.
. . .
after spending dinner all together, jisoo went home with jennie. "it was nice meeting you, rosie. shall i call you that?" chaeyoung shyly nods, hugging the celebrity that instantly became her friend. "would you stop ruining my name jeon? and take care of her." she commanded, "yes madam." he replied. both girls waved them goodbye, and left.
"would you like to go home?" jeongguk asks her. noticing her hands were slightly wrapped on her shoulders, he knew she was cold. so he removed his coat and covered chaeyoung.
"i never got to tell you about um... uh, about you today. you were really beautiful—i mean you always do! but today you stood out the most to me." he stuttered, touching his hair. chaeyoung felt guilty of getting upset over not hearing a compliment earlier, but surely those words made her heart flutter.
"thanks, you also look good today." she replied.
they returned to jeongguk's car, and drove her around town for a while. chaeyoung admired the medieval-like streets, sidewalks made of cobblestones and various beautiful houses and stores lightened up.
"now that i remember, you haven't told me where you live yet. and i do wanna see your home." she said.
jeongguk laughed nervously, "not—it's not really safe to go to my house now."
"why? are there booby traps or anything dangerous?" she jokingly said, but jeongguk was sweating hard.
"no seriously chaeyoung, it's not safe for you to come to my house now. you being in my territory, heaven knows what i'm gonna do to you. i'll... i'll bring you there when you decided drop the bestfriend thing." he was serious this time, and chaeyoung's insides were holding an animal circus event.
for a brief moment it was silent, thinking that jeongguk made her uncomfortable. but she spoke, "then let's date."
he immediately stepped on the brakes, looking directly at chaeyoung with a surprise face, "what did you just say?"
"i said, let's date. we're in paris anyway. let's leave that bestfriend thing in korea and start something here in paris." she said, while jeongguk's still had his mouth agape from her words. he ran his fingers through his hair and stared at chaeyoung wondering if she's just joking but she kept a straight face.
he gasps in both surprised and excitement, "you're really not joking? oh merde, chaeyoung, you don't realize how much i've been dying to do that ever since you got here."
chaeyoung couldn't help but smile at his enthusiasm, finally realising that this is what they're missing—dating. who would even get out of paris with only spending time as friends? no one ever.
