"The pancakes are cold by now," Lisa spoke while lying on her front after spending a good, comfortable long minutes of just lying on her bed and staring into each other's eyes like nothing else would ever matter anymore. The side of her face was half-buried unto the softness of her pillow.

Jennie chuckled softly as her fingers were running on Lisa's back in small circular motion, from Lisa's bare shoulder down to the curve at the bottom of her spine. Jennie was also lying on her front, her head was tilted, facing Lisa. Her left arm was tucked comfortably beneath her, already feeling a little numb and tingly. The crumpled sheet was spread unevenly over their bodies. Because despite the strewn clothes on the floor and the bareness that they'd both enjoyed gloriously moments ago, both of them still felt shy and reserved to bare it all casually as they both laid with contentment at the moment.

"The boys have probably devoured all of it before giving it a chance to turn cold, I think," Jennie said. She was talking about Leo and Luca.

Lisa laughed and said, "Yeah. That's not completely impossible," and bit her lip after. "Have I told you how beautiful you are, Nini?" she asked.

Jennie grinned, showing off her gummy smile that Lisa adored so much. "You might have, yes. Quite a few times already, actually," Jennie said cockily, earning herself another bemused laughter from Lisa.

Lisa reached out and tucked some strands of jet-black hair behind Jennie's ear, carefully touching Jennie's soft cheek with the tip of her thumb.

"You're beautiful, Jennie Kim," Lisa muttered, her brown orbs wandered and marveled at Jennie's cat-like eyes. "So beautiful, that sometimes I wonder how on earth did I ever get so lucky," she whispered and offered Jennie a smile so warm and tender, it made Jennie's heart skipped a few beats.

It was painful and beautiful, the way the frequency went from calm to static to frantic. And Jennie was glad that it was. Because it hurt so good and she wanted that. Only Lisa could ever give her that feeling, that sense of being alive and she loved it. All of it.

"You mean how on earth did I ever get so lucky when you walked inside The Era that day?" Jennie replied. "Because that day changed everything in my life, Lili."

"Ah, yes." Lisa nodded. "You couldn't take your eyes off me that day," she said and smirked playfully.

Jennie's eyes dilated and squinted in a matter of seconds as she realized what Lisa was trying to imply. "Because you were nosy, loud and annoying," Jennie pointed out, laughing.

"And you were curious and interested," Lisa replied with another smirk.

"Oh my god, Lisa!" Jennie pushed herself up a little. The sheet slid down a little, showing the side of her butt cheek. "Where did all that confidence come from?" she demanded. "It wasn't there when you tiptoed coming down the stairs a while ago."

Lisa laughed out loud. She loved it when Jennie would react that way. Shocked, scandalized and defensive all of a sudden. Especially when those cat-like eyes would dilate and look at her like she was another level of annoying.

Lisa pushed herself up by her elbow, closed their gap and kissed Jennie on the lips soundly.

"From the fact that you love me?" Lisa said and grinned playfully.

Jennie tugged Lisa's lower lip between her teeth, inflicting just the right amount of pain and waiting for Lisa to protest. And when Lisa did, Jennie smiled and released it, and claimed it once again.

"I love you, Lili," Jennie said and rolled over and pinned Lisa beneath her.
