When you least expect it (Jensoo convert G!P)

Chapter 23

"She... she asked her to the dance?" She clarifies.

"Yes! Apparently, Soojin has a dress already, with a matching outfit for her," I say, running my hands through my hair.

"But... she wouldn't do that. I mean not after everything... she likes you," Irene says, looking confused.

"No, she doesn't. I told you, Irene, this is just a deal to her, she only did it to get some action," I keep pacing in front of her.

"Jennie, I'm sorry," she says, looking at me like I'm an injured puppy, making me feel worse.

"Irene, she asked her to the dance," I say, stopping my pacing and standing in front of her.

"I know." She mumbles, watching me carefully.

"I didn't expect her to take me... I just..."

"I know," she repeats. I can feel the anger start to die down, making my head get sore slightly.

"I'm an idiot. I should have never started this deal." I say, more to myself.

"No, Jennie, talk to her." She tells me, putting a hand on my shoulder.

"What?" I ask.

"You need to talk to her." She repeats.

"No way. What am I to say, 'hey Jisoo I think I love you and I don't want you to go to the dance with Soojin'? Are you insane? I would never live that down," I tell her.

"Maybe she has an explanation?" She says, yet one look at her face shows that she doubts she does. I just roll my eyes and look back towards the school building.

We both stand there for a minute, not saying anything, both our minds somewhere else.

"We should get back. Thanks for listening." I tell her after a few minutes, feeling better after letting all my frustration out.

"Jennie, it's no problem. I'm sorry." She replies as we both start walking towards the school. I look over at her knowing that she was sorry that I was hurt.

"Yeah well, I should have seen it coming," I reply. We both head in our different directions, both going back to study.

I pause outside the study room. I look down at my watch, seeing I still have another ten minutes before the next class. I drop my arm and square my shoulders before taking a deep breath and pushing the door open.

It is later that day that I realise how much I had overreacted. I mean, she had made the terms clear from the beginning and she hadn't implied in any way that the deal wasn't still operating. She gave me her hoodie back, a clear indication that she still thought of this as the deal. If she wanted to go to the dance with Soojin, then fine. She obviously assumed that this would be over by then... so technically she wouldn't be seeing anyone else while the deal was still on.

By the time I am getting in the car to go home I have fully convinced myself that I am fine and that I would just accept her feelings and just accept that the deal was going to end soon.

"Hey," Irene says cautiously getting into the car.

"Hey," I reply in my usual manner, letting her know that I was fine. I notice that she keeps glancing at me the whole way home, waiting for me to say something about it. I say nothing.

That night I am sitting at my desk with my music playing, trying to get homework done when I notice the light go on in Jisoo's room. I glance up slightly to see her walk in and throw her bag on the floor. She lifts her head and sees me, starting to walk towards the window, pulling her phone out of her pocket. Once at the window she looks down at the phone and types something. I hear my phone go, making me look away from the window and start lifting books, trying to find my phone.

Good Kisser: Hey.

I look at it for a second, feeling disappointment in my stomach that that was the only word.

Me: Hey.

I reply, glancing up to her at the window. The moment I do I am taken back to what Chahee said, making me look away, back to the phone in time for another message to come through.

Good Kisser: You ok?

I close my eyes for a second, knowing she would be watching me for a reaction, trying to keep my face from giving away my feelings.

Me: Yeah. How was practice?

I keep my gaze on the phone this time, hoping she would drop her questions and change the topic.

Good Kisser: Good, coach is thinking about making Mino captain next year.

I barely get a chance to read it before another message comes through.

Good Kisser: Don't tell him, nothing is definite yet.

I feel a smile take over my face and a feeling of proudness flow through me. Mino, captain? That is what he has wanted for years.

Me: Are you serious?

I feel the smile stay on my face, refusing to move.

Good Kisser: Yeah, I knew that would make you smile.

At that moment I can't help it, I look up at her. She is standing, watching me with a smile of her own on her lips. I smile back at her, too happy for Mino to think about earlier.

Me: I can't believe it! He will actually be over the moon.

I stand from my desk and walk over to my window with my phone in my hand. She watches me get closer before typing something else on her phone.

Good Kisser: What did Song want?

I stare down at my phone for a second, feeling the smile drop completely from my face. I hesitate for a second, not knowing whether to tell her or not.

Me: Nothing important.

I refuse to look up at her, as I knew as soon as I do she would know that something was wrong.

Good Kisser: Doesn't look like it's nothing.

I hear my heart beating in my ears as I read it.

Me: Well, it is. I have homework to finish, I'll talk to you later.

As soon as I press send I make my way back to my desk, setting my phone down and going back to work. I don't get much done before my phone vibrates again.

Good Kisser: Tomorrow night? My house. 7?

I contemplate saying no, yet the beating of my heart stops me. I look up to see she hasn't moved from the window. She isn't looking at me though, she is watching her phone, waiting for my reply. Watching her, I know she expects my answer, long before I decide myself what it was going to be.

Me: Fine.
