Thirty-Day Lovers (Chaennie FF)

Chapter 1: Connivance

"Jen, Come on! I'll buy you a book just give me Lisa's number she is sooo my type!" Jisoo whined, feeling cute. While I am here, sitting under the shade of an oak tree, staring blankly at the same paragraph of the book I am reading because she won't shut the hell up and I can't leave her and Rosé alone.

"Tss, she's not even pretty. She's just a new face", blurted Rosé without looking up from her phone. Jealous, in love with Jisoo since the beginning of Old Testament.

"Hey! That's rude! She looks like a living doll and her legs?! Damn-" 

"Rude if I give you her number you know? We only text each other for deadbolt's sake. We're just roommates. We're not friends." Though I want her more than that. Rosè eyed me, and no I won't tell her that.

Lisa Manoban, the first year tourism student I've been fantasizing and all, is straighter than any pole in this university. I'm just trying to be a good friend, saving Jisoo from the heartbreak I'm in.

One exhausting day, I came home to a fresh from the bath Lisa. Towel wrapped around her body. Skin, trickled with water droplets, looking so soft under my touch. Drying hair. Her full lips moving like-"Hello Jennie? Are you still there?"

"Huh? Ah y-yeah? What?"

"You zoned out. Too tired? Are you part of the repertoire?" she asked still doing her hair while I remembered to move, get water from the fridge.

"Uh no, my friends are. I just needed something. Sorry, what are you ..saying earlier?" I gulped, had to focus my eyes on her face. Won't be this hard if she's dressed.

"Uh yeah. Uh you know Jisoo Kim? From economics, s-she's a friend of yours, right?"

"Why? What did she do to you?!"

"Wait no. Chill," she chuckled, sounds so beautiful I'd make it a ringtone if it won't creep me at 2AM when Rosé calls me crying about Jisoo banging a girl in their apartment. They share one.

I watched her until her fit finished, her boobs bouncing like-

"She asked me for a date."

"Hey, are you ok?" She ran towards me, patting my back, offering me the water I choked on.

"Oh w-ow?"

"Yeah, I was really..surprised. Because you know, I-I thought about asking you her number but I was..too shy."

Oh. She's blushing.

"I-I just want to know like, will you tell me things she likes. Like how does she like her coffee in the morning? What" she rambled. I waited. Answering as much as I know. And I think I know everything.

She may have remembered getting dressed leaving me and my salad in peace for a moment. Then she came back, Jisoo is still the topic. I endured. Just to hear her talk. Excited. Giddy. Lovesick puppy.

I had been tempted to discourage her from her soon to be life's biggest mistake, but I trust my friend Jisoo to do it in her own grand way. I won't stain my image for that.

My bed felt uncomfortable that night. Toss and turn. She was just at a grasp. Why did I bail so much time to accept my feelings for her? I wish Rosé's right. Maybe she's just a new face.

Motherfucker calling...

Speaking of

"Jeeeeeen~" followed by quiet sobs. Guess she knew.

"I was near confessing but she started talking my ear off about YOUR Lisa and their-"

"My roommate Lisa, and?"
