May Part II
It was the final week before prom, and unfortunately, that meant it was regular old school was still in session.
A normal day, however, was not in the cards.
In a last minute surge of urgency, desperation, and guts, YG High's underclassmen launched themselves into a challenge to trap seniors into taking them. Really, it was something of a marvel.
Jisoo made her way over to her locker, tongue poking out slightly as she turned the combo lock, hearing a satisfying click before yanking it down, swinging her locker open with a triumphant smile.
That smile quickly turned into a gasp when roses upon roses and various letters fell out, all with different scripts, mostly from freshman boys she'd tutored.
Jisoo heard a soft purring in her ear as two arms wrapped around her tightly.
"Those aren't from me." Jennie's voice was dripping with amusement as she leaned in to kiss Jisoo's cheek.
"Hey babe." Jisoo sighed in contentment, turning around to face her. "I know. They're from last minute freshmen." She rolled her eyes. "They do this every year. I'm pretty sure Suho pulled this shit when he was a freshman too."
"I don't blame them." Jennie shrugged with a smirk. "You're quite the catch."
Jisoo blushed, glancing down at Jennie's hands, which were also filled with flowers.
"I'm assuming you didn't just go and pick those for me?" Jisoo teased.
"I, too, was attacked by a mob of adoring underclassmen girls." Jennie responded, slipping the flowers into Jisoo's locker so she could grip Jisoo's hips instead. "It's like they don't know I'm already taking the love of my life." Jennie grinned, leaning forward to capture Jisoo's lips in a delicate kiss, well aware of the stares they were receiving.
"Your life?" Jisoo teased. "That's such a commitment. Are you sure you won't grow tired of me?"
"I'm sure." Jennie murmured, affectionately nuzzling Jisoo's nose. "Is your dress sorted? Everything okay?"
"Mhmm. You? I still don't know what you're wearing." Jisoo pouted.
"And you won't until I pick you up." Jennie replied matter-of-factly, hugging Jisoo as she leaned into her embrace tiredly, just waiting for the day to end.
"I'm nervous for you to see me." Jisoo admitted with a shy smile. Jennie's gaze still gave her immense butterflies. She wondered if that feeling would ever go away. She wagered it wouldn't.
"Nervous?" Jennie tsked. "Why?"
"Because you're already the hottest person in school without trying, and for prom, you're somehow going to be even more so. And I have to step my game up immensely to bridge the gap." Jisoo explained.
"Gap?" Jennie snorted, clearly displeased. "How many times do I have to tell you that you are the embodiment of perfection, Jisoo, before it sinks in?"
"It's hard dating someone as perfect as you." Jisoo rolled her eyes, burrowing into Jennie's warmth.
"You know I'd still drool over you in a shirt and jeans." Jennie assured her softly.
"I know. I just...want to be at your level. I don't know. Just..." Jisoo sighed, leaning up to kiss her. "I want everything to be perfect."
She knew what prom meant to Jisoo. It was the culmination of her survival of four of the most difficult years of her life. It was the night to put Finn, Nayeon, and the accident behind her. It was the night to honor Seunghyun's memory, to treat Jisoo to the luxuries she deserved.
