I wanted you to stay (but you are always leaving)

Four

Jennie is watching snowflakes fall throughout a wide window.

They fall slowly, pristine, and the brunette can imagine the white sheet that covers the floor outside.

It must be cold.

But inside, where she is sitting comfortably, it is just warm enough.

Behind her, a soft body is holding her tightly, secure arms embracing her waist.

Jennie can feel a squishy cheek pressing against the side of her head.

Just besides the window, hot, low flames burn in a stone fireplace.

The setting feels almost magical, and Jennie thinks that she can even smell the characteristic scent of chocolate chips cookies being baked.

She sighs softly, and her companion begins brushing their thumb against Jennie's right thigh in such a loving way that the brunette catches herself closing her eyes involuntarily.

It's nice.

It's really, really nice.

Outside, a cold breeze ruffles the leaves of the pines that surround the place.

Jennie guesses it's still daytime, as the grey sky is still bright enough to allow her to enjoy the sight.

Suddenly, a soft voice fills in the silence.

Her companion hums delicately, almost as if afraid of startling Jennie, who can't help but to lean her body back a little more, feeling just gleeful.

Their voice is a delight, and Jennie wishes that she was able to ask them not to stop.

The brunette's companion doesn't, anyway.

They burry their nose a bit deeper into Jennie's neck, who can't really complain about the lovely tune sounding a bit muffled because the caress feels just right.

When the song ends, Jennie opens her eyes.

The snow is still falling steadily, the fire still crackling.

But the brunette know that her dream is coming to an end.

And when she tries to speak, she is surprised to find out she is actually able to do so.

"I never want it to end".

Her companion doesn't answer.

But she feels soft kisses being pressed against her shoulder.

Gradually, Jennie closes her eyes again.

And it's white.

-

Jennie blinks quickly as she tries to focus on the class.

It's quite difficult; she woke up way before she was supposed to and she wasn't able to fall back asleep despite all her attempts.

Sleeping issues aside, the current events themselves have been keeping her mind away from University for longer than she can recognize.

Jennie is just really grateful of her summarizing skills at the moment.

To be fair, the professor at the front does not create the most entertaining class dynamic, and without Jisoo, who was very adamant not to choose that particular class, murmuring sarcastic comments under her breath, Jennie finds it hard to pretend that she's actually somewhat focused.

So she's glad when the overly formal man, sensing a general boredom, decides to finish his class a bit earlier.

The brunette has to stop herself from sighing in relief.
