Artist Love Better | Jensoo

Chapter 14: I Think You Already Did

Jisoo woke up slowly with the sound of someone knocking on her door. She stretched her arm to reach for her phone and widened her eyes at the time. It was past 4am and she had no idea who could be at her door this late at night.

"Just a minute!" She said sleepily as she wrapped herself on her nightgown and walked to the door.

Outside, a short brunette stood wearing a lot of makeup and a wide smile. Jisoo sighed and made way for her friend to come in.

"This better be an emergency, Lali. Honestly, you barged in earlier and now you interrupt my beauty sleep. I might kill you." Jisoo said jokingly as she started to make coffee.

"Jisoo. Oh my god. I'm sorry but I had to come." Lisa said sitting on the sofa. "I think I'm in love."

"Whoa, wait up. As far as I know you met this girl yesterday?"

"Yea. Well, maybe in love is a bit much but there is something about her. I don't know. It's like, when she drove me home last night she didn't speak much but it was like we had this kind of understanding going on and, when I was leaving the car she just asked me out and for some reason I didn't even think twice, I just said yes."

"Well, I can't say that I can't relate." Jisoo said as she walked to the sofa and handed a cup of coffee to Lisa. "But, in love? Seems extreme."

"I know. Well, I can say that this was the best date of my life and I didn't even take my clothes off." Lisa giggled. "She is super sensitive and polite. She draws as well, she showed me a couple of doodles and, guess what? She drew a picture of me! We met yesterday and she probably spent her night drawing my face on her little sketchbook!"

"That is lovely, Lali. I'm happy for you!" Jisoo said, smiling.

"I'm sorry I came here this late, I was just so happy and so excited, I wanted to share it with you." Lisa said. "Also, I want to know what is going on between you and the photographer."

"I see how it is." Jisoo said, jokingly slapping her friend's hand. "You just wanted to gather intel!"

"And share my happiness with you! Don't forget that!"

Jisoo took a deep breath and smiled. She thought about the day she spent with Jennie and how everything went from pretty much lost to a new beginning in a matter of hours. She thought about how she managed to open up to the girl and tell her everything that happened, about how she felt good in her arms and how she felt safe. She thought that maybe this time hope wasn't so much of a foolish idea.

"Well, I might have a girlfriend..." Jisoo said, not being able to keep the smile off her face.

"Holy shit! For real? How come? Three days ago you were quite certain that nothing would be happening." Lisa said, surprised.

"Well, you know me, Lali. I will bury my head in the sand if I can. And that was what I was doing but, thanks to you," Jisoo poked her friend with a giggle. "She didn't give in to my stubbornness and things ended up actually working out right."

"You know I'll need more details than that, unnie." Lisa crossed her legs and leaned against the sofa.

"I got drunk, obviously, I had to shame myself somehow. It's my M.O." Jisoo laughed.

"Amen." Lisa said, raising her coffee cup.

"She walked me back here because I had no conditions of coming home on my own. Although, I was completely conscious of everything that was going on. I kinda got tipsy on purpose. It was the only way I found to have the courage to tell her."
