Dazed

Chapter 14: Games

Chaeyoung heard the door creaked open and closed quietly. Soft footsteps made on her bedroom floor grew louder as the person came nearer. She felt the blanket moved and her bed dipped as the intruder laid next to her. She didn't move nor speak. A few minutes and the intruder spoke. "I can't sleep." The intruder whispered to the quiet room.

Chaeyoung slowly turned around and faced the voice. She looked at the woman's exhausted face. "You should've gone there with her you know."

"I would've, but I have work tomorrow." Jennie sighed. "I have work tomorrow and I can't sleep. I'll look like shit." Jennie said worried. She can't look like a zombie at work. She can handle feeling like a zombie, but, looking like it? Nope.

Chaeyoung hid her small smile. Her wifey is worried about looking like shit for work. As far as Chaeyoung remember, Jennie never looked, as she phrased it,  like shit. She might feel like it. But never looked like one. Chaeyoung is pretty sure that work is not the main issue here. Jennie can't sleep because Lisa is not here. Lisa went to Jeonju for a photoshoot. This is not the first time this happened. Jennie will most of the time pay her a visit when Lisa is away for work or when Lisa goes home. "Don't worry you'll still look great wifey. Did you talk to Lisa?"

"Yeah, she called earlier. She said they have a morning shoot tomorrow so we said our goodbyes so she can sleep early." Jennie said turning towards Chaeyoung. "That's an hour or so ago. I tried to sleep early too since I also have work tomorrow. But, I can't. So here I am."

"Here you are." Chaeyoung gave Jennie a smile. She moved her hand and started playing with Jennie's hair. Chaeyoung noticed Jennie's breath slowly evening out and her eyes slowly shut close. Minutes passed and Jennie is sleeping like a baby. "Works like a charm." Chaeyoung murmured. She pulled the blanket up and covered Jennie so she doesn't get cold.

Chaeyoung slowly got up and quietly exited her room. She marched over to Jisoo's room not bothering to knock. She threw herself on the bed and position herself comfortably. She put her switch on Jisoo's nightstand and started browsing through her phone.

"There's a stash over here." Chaeyoung heard Jisoo talking to her teammates through her gaming headset.

"Take cover there's a snipper. Find him. Good. Lets move." Jisoo commanded her team. Chaeyoung stood up and walk towards Jisoo to watch the game. A few minutes watching and she decided she should play her own game too. Jisoo's been ignoring her anyway too immersed on her game.

Chaeyoung opened her kart racing game and played on a course she knows she's good at. The game started and she's gaining distance. One rider was on her tail so she throw some traps. The rider slipped and spin away from the track.

"How long have you been there?" Jisoo finally noticed Chaeyoung lying on her bed concentrating on her phone. Given that Chaeyoung was holding her phone horizontally Jisoo knows she's playing. Jisoo flopped down beside Chaeyoung and watched her play. "Throw all your traps now chipmunk."

"Shuushh.." Chaeyoung reprimanded Jisoo but did what she said. She drop all her traps and zoomed her way to victory.

"Yay! I won. Look I got first place." Chaeyoung said clapping happily, a huge bright smile on her face.

"Aww.. congratulations." Jisoo said patting Chaeyoung's head affectionately.

"Thanks. And, I wasn't here long. About.. 20mins?" Chaeyoung said settling back to her comfortable position.

"Last call?" Jisoo asked.

Chaeyoung looked at the time on her phone and did the math using the information Jennie gave her earlier. "Two hours or so."
