Day 5

Jennie walked towards the statue where Irene was already waiting for her. There was no class today but Jennie had asked the older girl to meet her. Irene smiled when the blonde approached her. "Hey, Jen."

"Hi sweetie, how are you doing?"

Irene's eyes widened in surprise as the blonde went in to kiss her on the cheek. It's not like her best friend had never kissed her on the cheek before, but this time was different. It wasn't a short greeting kiss she used to get. Jennie's lips lingered against her skin for a few seconds.

"Uh.. good, I guess."

Jennie smiled and held out a box on her hands. "This is for you."

The other girl took it and stared at the box for a moment. "What's in it?"

"My heart." she responded, grinning widely.

Irene looked at her dumbfoundedly.

"I'm just kidding, babe." She winked before walking away. She turned her head one more time and smiled at the confused expression of the other woman.

The other girl moved over to a bench next to the statue and slowly removed the top of the box. Her eyebrows creased when she found a familiar red dress inside of it. It was that dress, the one she wore on the day her heart took a hulk smash. Why did Jennie buy me this dress? She held it up and found a note at the bottom of the box. She picked it up and started reading it.

'The red in this dress, is the colour of my heart.
On you, I'm sure it will look smart.
It's not a gift.. it's something I don't know what to call.
Are there new movies coming out this fall?

P.S. Sorry. I couldn't think of a rhyming fourth line.

Love, Jennie.'

Irene laughed and read the note once more before putting it back into the box and headed back home.

....

Day 6

Jennie was on time today. A little early even.

She's leaning against the gate of their school together with Irene who's standing in front of her.

"What's this all about?" the other girl laughed as she held up the note that the blonde put inside the box with the dress.

"Well, I need you to do me a favor." Jennie replied, taking a leaflet out of her bag. "I want you to join dance classes with me."

The older girl studied the leaflet. "Salsa?" she frowned in wonder.

"It's going to be my parents' wedding anniversary soon, and I wanted to do something new for them."

"And you want me to be your dance partner?"

Jennie smiled mischievously. "You are going to be my lifetime partner after all, so why not start now?" she bit her lip.

The older girl was again caught off guard with the blonde's statement, "No."

"I was just kidding," Jennie tilted her head and pouted, "Pretty please?"

Irene shook her head with a smile. "Okay, but only because you asked nicely."

The older woman nodded with a wide grin. "You won't regret it."

"I hope so, or I will never do anything for you ever again." Irene said before turning around to get inside the campus leaving the blonde behind.

"Wow, that went smoothly. Nicely done, Kim." Seulgi suddenly appeared from behind a wall.
