21: PICTURE

***R O S É

"Good Morning!"

"I cooked your favorite!"

"Have a seat!"

My brows furrowed, yawning as I lightly scratched my sleepy eyes. Then I felt Lisa's hands on both my shoulders as she helped me in taking my sit on the dining table.

Jennie Unnie put the plates of my favorites on the table.

Jisoo Unnie poured the juice on my glass.

And Lisa suddenly hugged me from the back.

"What's happening to you guys? Is it the end of the world or something?" I can't help but ask.

Jennie Unnie pouted and looked at me with soft sad gaze. I arched a brow at her and then, I heard Jisoo Unnie heave a deep sighed as she put her hand above mine.

"We know you like Chanyeol.." she started.

"And?" I probed, I'm not denying my feelings for Yoda because it is true.

I like him even before we became friends.

The three look at each other and my eyes travel to each of them, scanning their worried expressions. What's with them? I just woke up and they are already acting weird!

Ugh.. my body still slightly aches from the stampede that happens yesterday at the school. I wonder how Chanyeol Oppa's doing now.. I hope he is okay and nothing is bothering him. After all, it is my fault because I am the one who insisted that we go to the university in disguise.

"Look." Lisa showed me the screen of her phone.

I blinked.

In there is a picture from yesterday, it is inside the university with Chanyeol Oppa being bombarded by the students and then the next picture is him carrying a girl--which is me but no one knows because I am hiding on his chest.

--and the fact that I am wearing a brown wig sooo with my blonde hair now, no one would suspect it's me.

The headline says, 'EXO'S PARK CHANYEOL IS DATING A UNIVERSITY STUDENT!'

"What..?"

He just helped me because I was about to be hit by a bicycle! And the fact that I am not really a university student because I am in disguise as well!

This news is being too much!

"I know right." Lisa huffed. "I can't believe we don't know that he is dating! Poor you.."

Jennie Unnie pouted. "I asked Jongin about this news earlier this morning and even him doesn't have any idea about his groupmate's lovelife."

I stared blankly at the two of them looking at me with comforting gazes.

"Are you okay Rosé?" Jisoo Unnie squeeze my hand.

How should I tell them that I am not affected at all because the girl in the picture is none other than me?

I tilted my head to look at Jisoo Unnie's eyes and just when I was about to open my mouth to say something, she stood up and clapped her hands.

"It's okay Chae! There are lots of fishes in the sea and tonight, we'll help you find one!" Jisoo Unnie declared.

"Huh?" That was all I could say!

Lisa then squealed and hugged me. "Yey! But before that, let's go do some beauty stuffs for our girl to find many fishes flocking at her tonight!"

"I.. I-I am no--"

"Shush." Jisoo Unnie put her index finger on my lips. "Jennie are you in?"

"Absolutely." Jennie Unnie nodded.

All three of them grabbed me with no avail.

HELP!

***C H A N Y E O L

"Who is this girl?"-Chen.

"You're dating someone without telling us? Even me?"-Suho Hyung.

"And you are dating a university student at that! Is she even in legal age already?!"-Baekhyun.

I massaged my temple as my headache starts to rise with all their voices following me. I can't even speak because all of them are busy saying something as if they know anything about what happened.

But I don't think I would want to tell them that I am with Rosé of BlackPink.

I don't want to drag Chipmunk into this mess I am in.

Lee Soo Man is angry because of this issue.

Many of my fans are mad of the idea that I am already dating someone. Most are curious of who the girl is and what is she like to be noticed by me.. there are already lots of comments criticizing her and that made me angry.

They don't know Rosé so why would they call her a slut? Who are they to call her names and curse her just by being with me?!

"You look angry.." Suho Hyung muttered while studying me.

I heave a deep sigh and ignored them as I stared at my phone.. wondering if Chipmunk already saw the article and all the comments that is making me mad for real.

"We want to know who this girl is Chanyeol-ah." Xiumin Hyung calmly looked at me.

"She's none of your business." I can't help but said coldly.

If they know, I don't know what they would do. I trust my members but who knows if they will let me be with Chipmunk. Who knows of what they would ask me to do about this mess? All I know is that I don't want to be away from Rosé.

"Okay.. we would just say that it is a fan and you are just protecting her because you saw her being almost hit by a bike." Suho Hyung said as he was tapping on his phone, probably telling the PR team about his way to clean up my mess.

Silence enveloped all of us for a minute. They all look worried about me, I can sense Baekhyun and D.O stealing glances at me from time to time trying to read my reaction but all I have is a blank one.

I already mastered the art of not showing any emotion's even though I am boiling deep inside.

"Okay guys.. so who wanna go clubbing with me tonight?" Jongin suddenly said.

"Seriously Kim Kai?" Kyungsoo raised a brow.

"I do." Lay Hyung raised his hand.

"Well, Jennie messages me and told me to bring many of my male friends as possible because they are going to catch lots of 'fishes' for Rosé-ssi to choose from--huh? Fishes? Should I bring a gold fish or what?" Jongin cluelessly reads Jennie's message.

And by hearing chipmunk's name, my ears automatically perked up.

"Ohhh! Let's party!" Baekhyun stood up and already forgotten that he is somehow angry at me just a minute ago.

"So they are looking for a partner for their main vocalist?" Lay Hyung said. "I wonder if I had the chance.."

"Hyung..? I am already sensing a dark aura near you.. don't say such words!" Sehun warned and that made me realize how hard I am clenching my jaw while glaring at Lay Hyung..

Lay Hyung innocently blinked. "Oh. Okay."

I growled as I look away.. I know Chipmunk is not the type of girl that is easily swayed by handsome boys but then thinking other guys near her, making her smile, and getting her attention is making my stomach flipp heavily.

I stood up, "I'm in." I told Jongin.

No one is going to steal my chipmunk from me. Not any other guys, and not any of the other members of mine.

She already admit that I am her ultimate bias and I think I have a chance..

I will do my best Chipmunk..

I will be brave to be with you. So please.. choose me.

I look at my phone seeing that stolen picture of us, with me carrying her and her hiding her face on my chest.. this picture clearly said one word that I know if only my member knew who she is..

..they would never dare to think they have a chance.

Because this picture clearly stated that.. she's mine

And I will prove it.
