Jimin decided to talk to Tae--this time, a little heart-to-heart talk. To make up for leaving him the last time and almost never getting to talk to him longer like they always did.

"I almost snapped at Lisa yesterday." He started. Tae took a little break to listen, so he was sitting there, next to Jimin on the bleachers.

"What do you mean, 'snapped'?" He sounded confused, so Jimin elaborated.

"I was so stressed yesterday, I almost yelled at Lisa when all she wanted to do was eat with me while waiting for the announcement to see who got picked."

Tae looked at him, realizing something for the past, long years he's been friends with the guy. "Jimin, you're not actually saying you're going up against Lisa? She's your girlfriend and you two are supposed to be working as a team."

"Don't you think I would've known that by now? Of course I know. She's all I got." He said. "And besides, this is probably just a one time thing to get frustrated at. After all, I'm just starting with the exposure and all."

"I hope so."

Jimin plans on making it up to Lisa, so he bought food (whether it be for breakfast or lunch or whatever) for both of them since he didn't actually get to buy her that last time. Only a shake since he knew himself he was rushing her. Lisa surely must've felt the pressure.

Soon enough, she arrived.

"Hey," she greeted, although not as energetic as she used to when she sees him.

"Hi, uhm, wanna eat this with me? I can't possibly finish it all." Jimin extended his hand to see if she would take it. To his surprise, she did and sat beside him.

"What'd you get me?"

"Basically, summary of everything you've ever eaten on our dates since I don't know exactly which one is your fave yet."

Lisa lets out a soft chuckle, easing his heart. She picks up the chopsticks and breaks it in half, then used it to collect her food in the bowl. "So what's the occasion?"

"I'm sorry." He spoke softly.

Lisa looks up at him in shock; she definitely was taken aback for she was supposed to start first with this conversation. But then decided to play along with it. "For what?"

"Oh, come on, you know what."

Lisa lifts an eyebrow, then did he begin explaining. "Sorry for the way I acted the other day. I was being stupid and let the stress take over. I really am."

She scoots closer to rest her head on his shoulder and smiles. "OK. You passed."

"That's it? No drama, no- whatever?"

She shook her head. "Nope. I'm not that petty. Besides, it's just a phase. I'm sure it won't affect me next time. Just promise me, though, that next time, you will tell me what's bothering you, OK?"

With that, Jimin nods. "OK."

"I'd like to think of it as a form of elegance to expose our club," Jisoo began, running her hands over each other. "Think of it as training to lose those embarrassed thoughts; let go of yourself and feel the freedom through your body. Let the inner you take over and show them what you've got, alright?"

Jisoo claps her hands as cue to start. Lisa was down in the seats, watching her boyfriend focus again. He looks so hot, she thought.

"So? Have you talked to him yet?" Jennie appeared by her side, almost causing her to lose control of her breathing.

"Don't do that next time, OK?"

"Well, what happened? Spill the sprite."

"We kind of talked." Lisa guessed. "He treated me food and promised me he wouldn't do that again. So we're OK now."

"Really? That's all it took to forgive him, his food bribery?" Jennie couldn't believe their argument didn't make any sense, let alone, be taken on a serious level.

"Cranky again, I presume?"

"No, Lisa. What if Jimin does have issues. What if he actually has a problem controlling his anger or something?" Jennie was known to be somewhat paranoid when things start turning around in a bad (dark) way. She believes the smallest signs actually has a huge meaning behind them.

"Jenjen, stop. I trust him. He loves me and I love him. That's all that matters. We'll just see about this soon.."

"Well, maybe. Surely, you do believe actions speak louder than words, right?"

"Yeah. Yes. Yes, I do."

"Good. I leave it up to you, it's in your hands."

Lisa softly laughs at her concerned friend as Jennie exited the auditorium, off to somewhere again. Who knows what she's been up to these days? Meanwhile, her concentration went on glued to Jimin, practicing. Seeing how flexible and well-coordinated his joints were, how perfectly masculine his body type was to fit each music he's ever danced to or worked on.

"Right. I need to get some work done." She got up, grabbing her bag by the shoulders. Hesitated to go near Jimin, afraid of messing up his concentration, so she exited to go to the library and work on her deadlines. Decided to leave with a text.

Lisa: @ library. lot of work to do. ttyl?

In Jimin's perspective, however, he saw how she left, with her head hung low and her phone in her hand. She even sighed. That wasn't a good sign. He was going to follow her and ask, but was told to not leave his position until it's his time to go to the center.

Why would she go off just like that? I'm still practicing here. Doesn't she want to support me?

Lisa: @ library. lot of work to do. ttyl?

It was a little late when he saw her text. He was already inside his car, about to drive over to her dorm ans get this 'madness' over with. But then he stops when he sighs, frustratedly rubbing his temples. He saw her shadow by the window, her head hanging low, reading something.

"Probably the 'work' she's been talking about to keep herself busy." Was all he said to keep himself calm. With that, he texted back before he went off.

Jimin: c u tomorrow.
