"Do you think Rosie is right?" Lisa left Jungkook's phone on the floor as soon as the call with Chaeyoung ended.

The giggles caused by his tickling pecks on her neck were long forgotten as she grew concerned about the obvious disagree of her bestfriend with all that situation. Probably Chaeyoung was already fuming.

Jungkook leaned back on his hands, to look at her better since she was on his lap.

"About what?" he asked, noticing her worried and very adorable expression.

"About us," she pointed to herself and him with a gesture. "Are we playing with fire?"

Jungkook sighed. "We have always played with fire, doll, I think we are already experts in avoiding burning," he tried to joke but he barely managed to get a sincere smile from her. She was really worried, fidgeting distractedly. "Tell me what you think," he asked, because he wanted her to let out her obvious upsetting thoughts.

Lisa stretched her lip out, forming a cute pout, and looked down at her nails. "I think I like being with you even though it's dangerous but that's very bad for me and for you, specially for our members," she said with a hint of sadness.

"Doll, what has the company told you all about Jennie?" Jungkook asked her, suspecting that all sudden concern had to do with it.

And he was right.

"That we have to keep as clean as possible," she said quietly, still not looking at him. "You know, not acting suspicious or doing suspicious things"

"And that means not having me around," he continued, not at all surprised because from the first moment the news came out by Dispatch, he expected it but at least they were still together.

Lisa nodded. "They don't know about the photos or the sasaeng issue getting bigger than it was," she commented. "I never told Oppa and I'm grateful, because he would have had to inform it and, from what sajangnim said, they would have forced me to break up with you," she confessed.

Jungkook tilted his head, offended with it. "They can't do that," he stated, very sure of himself. "You know I would never allow it"

She sighed and gave him a serious glance. "Jungkook, they can do that because they run my life and you know it," she said it as if it was nothing when it was actually something hard and horrible, but it was the truth and Jungkook felt helpless for hearing her speak in that resigned way. "Maybe they wouldn't force me break up with you if I resist, but then they would do things to force me to do so, hurting my career"

That was the most usual movement of companies towards idols. Jungkook clenched his jaw, starting to burn with rage because that would be dirty for her after all her efforts to do her best. But she cupped his face gently, her palm feeling like soft soothing cotton against his hard jaw.

"Don't get mad," she hummed and kissed him on the cheek, but he kept his eyes dark and annoyed, glaring at a blank point. "Baby, we're alright, everything is alright after all," she assured him, comforting him with more kisses because she knew they were his weakness.

However, this time Jungkook looked at her intensely, with a hard expression. "They have never benefited you either," he released harshly, Lisa froze and looked at him surprised. Jungkook rolled his eyes in annoyance. "What's the point, Lisa? If you're good, you don't get anything, not even the things you deserve like the Thai honored thing or all the dance breaks you told me you would have but were canceled"

"Jungkook, I've had more opportunities to dance," she contradicted him seriously, getting upset with that outburst. "I've done important choreographies, like those for YGX and Taki Taki, and I've just danced a lot in my solo. You're being unfair"
