School passed rather slowly to Lisa's pleasure, but now that it was over, she couldn't contain her grin. School being over and done with meant basketball practice and basketball practice meant having Jennie's gawking eyes on her for a whole hour.
Lisa may not say it or agree with it but, she rather enjoyed showing off in front of her crush. Especially when that said crush relentlessly showered her with compliments right after.
So, Lisa practically sprinted through the annoyingly loud and crowded hallway towards her locker to retrieve what ever belongings she needed to bring home. And, after shoving her jacket into her bag and closing her own locker, she started making her way towards Jennie's locker that was further down the hallway. She slowed down her pace and steadied her breath before standing behind the smaller girl.
"Ready?" Lisa asked. Jennie turned her head slightly and sent a curt nod and small smile,
"Yeah, just give me a sec. I'm double checking if I need to bring anything else." Lisa nodded as Jennie turned back around. The blonde took the chance to lean forward and rest her chin on Jennie's shoulder from behind. She tilted her face slightly towards Jennie's ear and sighed,
"A second passed already. Let's go.." Lisa whined with Jennie rolling her eyes and giggling after shivering from the girls warm breath tickling her ear. The older one leaned her cheek against Lisa's as she continued to organize her things in her locker,
"You're such a whiner," she teased. Lisa laughed lightly while sliding her hands around Jennie's stomach and playfully blew into the girls ear, earning her another angel like giggle.
"And you're slow," she fired back while tickling her sides causing Jennie to gasp and laugh lightly, "And ticklish," She added. Jennie whined while placing her hands over Lisa's that still held her waist and intertwined their fingers together, stopping her movements.
"Keep that up and I will take my sweet time," Jennie warned, turning her face to look at the Lisa and rolling her eyes towards the smug like expression. Their faces were quite close but neither flinched nor backed down. They were use to the sudden proximity, but that never ceased the abnormal beating in Lisa's chest. So, to mask her nerves, Lisa playfully groaned and pulled away.
"Fine, fine," she chuckled out, walking around the smaller one and leaning her side against the lockers, but before she could, Jennie grabbed onto her wrist, pulling her back to her previous spot and placed her arms back around her waist from behind.
"Doesn't mean you should let go."
Clingy, just how Lisa liked it.
"Pass it!" Lisa shouted from the court. Her teammate Joy didn't hesitate and bounced the ball towards her as she noticed she was being blocked by two players. Lisa instantly caught it and forced her tired legs to run and dribble the ball as fast as she could. And, by the time she was past the three pointer line, she stopped and held in a breath as she shot the ball up towards the net.

Nothing but net.
"That's my girl!!"
Lisa looked over towards the empty benches and laughed seeing Jennie clapping and jumping in excitement. The blonde laughed and sent a wink, enjoying the warmth in her chest whenever Jennie sent her an award winning gummy smile. It was her favorite smile.
"Your girlfriend does know that this is only a practice game right?" Lisa looked behind her and sent a tiny glare towards her teammate Sorn,
"Not my girlfriend."
Unfortunately
Sorn quirked up an eyebrow with a surprised smirk, "Really? You guys sure do act like one though. I wonder why you haven't asked her to be yours yet," she teased. Lisa turned around and playfully punched her shoulder.
Don't get her wrong, Lisa always wanted to ask Jennie to be hers but it seemed to be absolutely impossible. It wasn't the fear of losing her or ruining what they had now, it was the timing.
Timing was never on her side because whenever she did decide to ask Jennie out, Jennie somehow always ended up getting a boyfriend before she got the chance. And Jennie getting a boyfriend proved to her that she didn't feel the same way.
"Shut it Sorn," she mused with a light laugh but gasped in surprise as an arm suddenly draped itself over her shoulder,
"Well why don't you be mine instead baby doll," teased Minnie. "I could treat you like a princess my darling," she added, slowly getting on one knee and holding both of Lisa's hands. Sorn laughed and joined in, sliding down to one knee and snatching one of Lisa's hands out of Minnie's grasp.
"No! Be mine baby girl. Let me rock your world," she winked. Lisa rolled her head back and laughed loudly.
Other than Jennie, Jisoo and Chae, Lisa's basketball teammates were like her family. Especially Sorn and Minnie. Since they were originally from Thailand as well, it was easier for her to get along with them.
"Sorry girls but," arms were suddenly wrapped around Lisa's waist, and by the sweet scent, Lisa knew who those arms belonged to, "This girl right here belongs to me." Lisa shivered feeling teeth playfully grazing her neck before walking her backwards, away from the pleading duo.
Minnie playfully pouted with a knowing glint in her eyes as she extended her arm out, trying to reach for Lisa,
"No! My love!" Sorn pulled back Minnies arm and hugged her tightly, feigning a look of utter defeat,
"Let her go. If you love someone you must set them free." Sorn exasperated. Lisa watched and laughed before holding the arms that were still holding her from behind.
"Please ignore the dramatics," she teased before turning around in Jennie's arms. She met Jennie's narrowed eyes and gulped nervously under the intensity of her gaze. But feeling Jennie's hands rubbing up and down her sides soothingly, she felt the fear slowly washing away. Jennie hummed,
"I'll ignore them as long as they know one thing."
Lisa tilted her in confusion, "And, what's that?"
Jennie gripped onto her waist a little tightly which had Lisa biting her bottom lip to hold in a whimper. The smaller one flickered her eyes to Lisa's lips before glaring at the duo behind her.
"Jennie Kim doesn't like sharing."
