When Chaeyoung starts to realize her feelings for her best friend Lisa, what will become of their friendship? What will become of their girl group Blackpink?
Park Chaeyoung x Lalisa Manoban
This is a fanfiction loosely based on actual Blackpink time...
We arrived in Hongdae and told the manager unnies and oppas to go home because we'll just walk back home.
Trying to look for a good restaurant, we've been roaming Hongdae for awhile now. The sun has already set and we still haven't found what we think would qualify for a romantic dinner. We walk to a narrow alley and find a quaint french restaurant with dim lights, I peek at the windows and see a man playing the guitar. My face lights up thinking this is the one we're looking for.
"Lisa! I think this is the one." I call Lisa who was currently following a stray cat.
She walks towards me wearing a big smile, satisfied that she got to see a new cat. She looks at the restaurant and agrees with me. She opens the door, looks back at me, and grabs my hand pulling me inside.
I immediately hear the sound of the guitar playing. The man was playing an unfamiliar tune but it was romantic nonetheless. Maybe it's French?
We take a seat at the corner with a front view of the guitar man. I open my phone and posted on my instagram story about the guitar man.

After taking the picture, I lock my phone and notice two white flowers pointed towards me. I look to my left and see Lisa holding the flowers and pointing it in my direction.
"What is this?" I ask.
"It's for you pabo." She says shyly. Feeling giddy at Lisa's action but I didn't want to seem too obvious so I joked around.
"Does this count as part of the romantic theme of our dinner?" I laugh, I still ended up posting an Instagram story of the flowers as well.

When the food arrived, I decided to tease the Blinks so I posted a photo of the our food showing a little bit of Lisa with the words date night with Lalalisa (tagging Lisa's account.

"Mmhhh, It's so good!" I exclaim, my eyes start to water. The food was that good.
"Oh try this, this one is the best." I put a piece of steak on my fork and put it closer towards Lisa's mouth. She opens her mouth and eats the steak.
"Mhhh, daebak! This is the best steak I've tasted."
We enjoyed our dinner and took a picture as a proof that we've finished another activity on the list. We paid for the meal and left the restaurant.
"Lisa, let's enjoy view and walk slowly back home." I intertwined our fingers and started walking towards the direction of the dorm. I sway our hands and started to hum a song. It was Not for Long by B.o.B.
"You sang that song a bunch of times on TV and practice singing it at home a lot. It's really one of your favorite songs huh?"
"Aniyo, I sing this song for my crush same with If It's You." I say with a confident look.
"But your crush is Gong Yoo! That's practically impossible for you to sing those songs for him then."
"Well maybe I have another crush?" I tease her with a wink.
"Omo! Who is it? Why didn't you tell me?" she uses her other hand to shake me.
"It's a secret."
"Don't be unfair! No secrets remember." she whines her mouth starting to pout.
"It's someone you know very well. This person is a famous idol, is great at dancing, and a funny maknae."
"Waaah! It's Seungri-oppa?" she shouts.
I look at her in disbelief and say no a little bit too loudly.
"Who is it then?"
"Lalisa Manoban" I whisper very quickly.
"Chaeyoung-ah! Stop playing around. Tell me now." she looks a bit angry which scared and hurt me. I don't like seeing her look like this.
"Lalisa Manoban" I say.
"What?"
"Lalisa Manoban"
"What? You keep repeating my name!"
"Pabo Lisa"
"Ya Park Chaeyoung! Why are you calling me stupid?" She fumed. I got a bit angry because she was giving me attitude.
"You keep asking me who it is and I keep telling you but you won't listen! Pabo Lisa!"
I let go of her hand and walk in front quickly leaving her alone. It took her a few sevonds before her brain processed what I said.
"Ahhhhh!" she shouts.
I look behind and see Lisa with an expression of shock.
"Finally, it took you a while before you got the joke." I gave her a fake smile, the smile not reaching my eyes.
I felt my heart hurt as I said those words. I place my hand on my chest, the place where my heart was and squeezed hard hoping the pain would go away. Don't believe what I say Lisa. I was telling you the truth earlier. I really do like you but I won't ever tell you. I don't want to ruin what we have. You're my bestfriend and I treat you practically as my family.
She gives me a huge grin and runs towards me. She gives me hug, a long one. I hug her back and I could feel her tighten her grip.
"Chaeng-ah, I'm sorry for being mad. It didn't feel good knowing you liked someone, my heart hurt. No secrets okay? Promise me, I'll be the first to know when it's real."
I give her a muffled yes because my face was buried on her shoulders.
"I love you Chaeng!" I remove myself from her tight hug and look at her in the eyes.
"I love you Lisa." I said in the most sincere and honest manner. I meant every word and letter. I really did love you Lisa.
She froze for an instant but I hold her hands and pulled her along. "Come on let's go back."
Our walk back home was uneventful after that, we didn't talk but it was a comfortable silence. We hummed along to our favorite songs until we arrived home.
The date ended so quickly. I wish it could have been longer.
