Driving Me Crazy

Drive Twenty Nine

The drive to Somin's house wasn't filled with much conversation since Jisoo was busy on her laptop. But as they passed the highway the redhead suddenly spoke.

"How was your day off?" asked Jisoo.

"It was nice, thank you," said Jennie.

"Mmm, I'm sure. Did you do anything interesting?"

"Not really," answered Jennie and Jisoo smirked.

"Ok, well I'm going to be at Somin's until about 8 pm tonight. You can pick me up around then. What's your schedule for today?"

"I need to fetch Lisa after I drop you off. But I won't need to pick her back up. And then I need to,"

"Wait what? Lisa's on your schedule today?"

"Yeah," Jennie looked in the mirror and saw Jisoo frown.

"She didn't tell me."

"Does she have to?"

"Yes," Jisoo slumped back.

"Do you know where you're taking her?"

"Not yet. Just that I must," Jennie turned in to Somin's driveway and unlocked the car.

"Fine. I'll talk to her later. Thanks, Jen," said Jisoo and got out of the car. Driving off, Jennie headed straight towards Lisa's apartment. It didn't take her long and when she arrived, she was surprised to see that Lisa was already outside.

"Hey Jen," said Lisa as she got.

"Hi," smiled Jennie, "So where are we going?"

"To the Dryer Suburbs please."

"Got a shoot today?"

"Nope, I'm going to see my ex"

"Okay, is everything alright?"

Jennie slowed down as there was some traffic. She left the question open and wasn't going to push if Lisa didn't say anything. However, laughter escaped from the backseat. Frowning Jennie turned off to a quiet street and stopped the car.

When she turned around, the bob-haired woman was still recovering from her laughter. It took her some moments, but Lisa was able to quell herself. Wiping at her eyes, she looked at Jennie seriously.

"What am I doing?"

It came out slightly broken and her lips began to quiver. Lisa released a sob and soon after tears were streaming down her face. Jennie got out of the car and slid into the back. Instinctively she engulfed the other woman into a hug and let her cry herself out.

As her trembles began to slow, Jennie loosened her hold. Lisa lifted her head and moved back a little. Wiping away some of the tears, she smiled weakly.

"Thank you."

"It's a pleasure," said Jennie softly.

"I'm sure I've ruined my make-up," huffed Lisa.

"What's going on Lisa?" Biting her lip, she looked at Jennie nervously.

"You need to promise me you won't tell Jisoo?"

"I promise," nodded Jennie.

"I don't think I can do this anymore. Having to share myself between two people. I wasn't expecting it to turn out like this," sniffled Lisa.

"Is this about Jisoo and Somin?"

"Yeah."

"So you need to share yourself between them?" Lisa nodded.

"How long have you been doing this?"

"Just over two years. Rosie warned me and has been telling I'm the only one who'll end up hurt in all of this."

"What exactly is your relationship with those two?"

"Jisoo and Somin were a thing before I came into the picture. I had always had a crush on Jisoo and after a really really bad break up, things happened," said Lisa. Her eyes still had some tears in them.

"I can't really tell you everything, Jennie. I'm not allowed to."

"Why not?"

"I signed a contract. A really bad contract. Please don't tell Rosie that either. I promised her I would never sign the thing but shit, Jisoo fucked me stupid," Lisa shook her head.

"I won't tell them. Lisa, is there any way you can get out of this? Actually, do you want to get out of this?"

"I don't know."

Nodding, they sat quietly for a few moments, contemplating.

"Would you still like to go to Dryer?"

"No...I want...want my bestie," pouted Lisa, "And my cats."

Smiling at her cuteness, Jennie moved to get out of the back as Lisa dialed a number. When she was back in the driver's seat, she heard Lisa laugh.

"Stop Rosie, it's not that bad. Should we come to pick you up?"

Jennie's heart stopped hearing the blonde's name. She wasn't ready to see her again and she wasn't on her schedule today until later. Buckling up, she waited for Lisa to end the call.

"Jen, we need to go fetch Rosie at the Uni," Lisa's eyes looked a little brighter and Jennie was glad for it. Starting the car, she decided to take the rest of the ride as prep for seeing the blonde.
