Jisoo quickly learned that those college movies she used to watch back in high school held some truth to them. Like how there were a lot if parties and how students rank you due to whichever person you are hanging out with or which ever frat/sorority you are apart of.

Boy, was she lucky or unlucky to be apart of the biggest sorority on campus. The most sought after and the members that guys wanted to screw. No. She was very unlucky on that part.

Jisoo wasn't the type to like being in the center of attention. She would much rather be on her own. Unnoticed, most of the times. She could take attention but that didn't mean she wanted it all the time.

But tonight, maybe attention wasn't so bad. Once it came from the right person. And that's what she learned that Monday night at Club 365 Roller Rink.

Monday night, 7:30 PM.

The atmosphere was lifted, the colors blinked in that retro style roller rink. Now, there is something to know about Jisoo. She loved going to roller rinks as a kid with her family.

Her father would rent out a rollerskating rink for his family and everyone would skate, laugh and have a good time.

When Lisa brought out the idea of going that Monday night after classes, Jisoo immediately agreed to it.

Jennie, who wanted to someday own her own makeup line, gleefully wanted to do her make up. Sense it was a Retro Night, she went with the glittery look of the 70s.

And Jisoo will admit, she liked how it looked on her.

She wasn't always big on makeup but she might take lessons from Jennie.

" welcome to Club 365! Where your dreams will come true!"

Club 365 was a very popular rollerskating rink. High schoolers raided it on weekends while the college students used it as their own club after hours. Especially after a hard day of classes.

Jisoo nearly gasped at the scene of the disco ball in the middle of the roller rink. Off to the side, there was a huge area for the arcade and pool tables. On the other side, it had a concession stand.

Everything was so retro and Jisoo loved it.

"Its more crowded than before." Rosé commented as she walked with the girls to an empty place at the mini diner style booth area.

"So I see Mino is here, eh?" Momo said slyly, nudging Irene, who rolled her eyes.

With a yank at her skate ties, she gave Momo a sarcastic smile. "Yeah yeah, whatever."

"Well, I don't know about you but I'm gonna find my next sugar daddy." Jessi jokingly said as she began to skate away.

The girls all laughed while she gave them a thumbs up before disappearing into the skating crowd.

"Well, while you all indulge in your kitty games, I'm going to try and hustle high schoolers out of their monthly allowances." CL added with a sly smirk. "Anyone is welcomed to join me."

"I'll go, I've always wanted to learn how to be a con artist." Hyuna quickly stood up, following her towards the arcade.

After the leaders left their own way, Joy turned to the girls. "Well, are we gonna sit all day or are we gonna skate our butts off!"

The girls cheered as they all began skating out on the rink. Jisoo giggled as she held hands with Rosé, allowing the small wind her hair easy catching to take through her black hair.

The 70s inspired music playing through her ears as she skillfully twirled in her skates, danced with Rosé and just had a lot of fun.

It seemed like it had been a while since she's had fun. And she was happy that she could spend this moment with her new best friends.

"She flat out rejected you?"

Jungkook had told the members about what happened after film appreciation class. About how Jisoo rejected him the way she did. Which was a but suprising to them.

A bit because of what they had heard about her. Rejecting his previous advances at the bar.

"Yes, me! Jeon Jungkook, the golden student! " he said, sitting on the railing with his back towards the floor. "Something about a charity thing? I don't know."

"Wait, charity?" Namjoon perked up, pushing himself off of his seat. "She mentioned something about a charity thing?"

"Everyones been talking about it." Sehun commented. "How Jisoo is coordinating a car washing event for the children with cancer. It's being sponsored by St. John's Hospital now."

"That still doesn't explain why she would ask us about it." Yoongi mumbled, letting out a long line of white smoke from his joint.

Sehun shrugged. "I don't know why, either. But it might have to do something about having the word being spread more. Or something like that."

Namjoon rubbed the top of his lip with his finger as he looked out on the roller rink floor.

His eyes almost immediately found her, in her little white, rose pattern dress and the glitter on her face. Her hair reaching her hips as she skated on gracefully.

Her hand was holding Rosé's, who looked just as pretty with her white, short dress and her now peach blonde hair flowing with her.

The girls both laughed and held each other close. Sometimes by the hands and other times by the waist.

"She has no business being that fucking beautiful." Luhan said through his teeth, staring at her and her legs.

"Hmm. . . " Namjoon hummed in agreement. She was ethereal, he'll admit but how long could that last?

Was he a little bit sadistic in wondering that? Yes.

Some might say a whole lot but he was always a curious soul. Maybe too curious for his own liking.

After some skating, the girls all wanted to take a break and chill at the concession stand. Joy went over to her boyfriend with Nayeon and Tzuyu.

Jennie stayed with Jisoo, Rosé and Yeri while Lisa and Irene went to the arcade.

Somehow, amongst the laughing, Jennie placed a plastic and shiny crown on Jisoo's head. It was  encrusted with red fake rubies and bedazzled but it was beautiful.

( see the top image for a reference. )

"I'm gonna go get a slurpee, I'll be right back." Jisoo said, standing up.

She gently glided all the way to the concession stand, avoiding the people that walked by, even greeting some familiar faces.

She was honestly having such a good time. She hadn't been roller skating since she was only a little girl. Jisoo was happy with this night of relaxation and fun. Away from the stress of college and coordinating the fundraiser.

━━━ • ｡° ☆ : *.♡.* :☆ ° . ━━━

"One large piña colada slurpee, please." Jisoo ordered.

The worker nodded his head, picking up a large cup. Jisoo minded her own business while she waited on her order. She looked off d saw how Jessi was flirting with some guy near the skating floor, Joy was with Wonho ( like usual ) and the rest were scattered around.

"Now, I didn't know that the queen of Rose's liked piña colada slurpees "

The voice made her jump a little until she turned and saw Taeyong leaning in the space next to her, adorning a kind smile.

Jisoo smiled back, forgetting about the crown Jennie gave her. "Haha, yeah well, theres more to her than meets the eye."

Taeyong chuckled with her before it fell to silence. The worker gave Jisoo her slurpee, stating "its 2.50, princess."

Jisoo gave him the money before he walked away to another customer.

"So, I never really pegged you the social type." He admitted before quickly back tracking his comment. "Not to say that you aren't like a loner or whatever."

Jisoo giggled, drinking her icy drink. "I get it, Taeyong. I'm not but since it's a roller rink, why not?"

Taeyong nodded his head slowly, looking over her face. She was so pretty with the glitter on her face and eyes. Like she was ready for a festival.

That crown also fit on her head perfectly. She, herself, was more than a beautiful girl. She was smart, funny and kind.

Something he wished those Alpha Sigma Phi guys would take the time to see instead of chasing tail.

"Do you want to skate?" He asked, over the changing music. "This is a very good song, by the way."

Jisoo paused, swallowing her slurpee a bit nervously. Whenever a very good looking guy gave her any type of attention, she would immediately fold.

Like she was right now.

But glancing back at her friends, who had been watching the whole time. It looks like Joy was about to scream in glee at the sight.

"Um. . ." She mumbled before looking back at him. "S-Sure."

Taeyong smiled charmingly at her before offering his hand.

Jisoo smiled back, placing her hand in his, skating onto the rotating crowd of people dancing and skating.

⌜    play song no.2     ⌟

On the floor, Jisoo could only think about how free she felt as she skated with Taeyong next to her.

And she would be lying if she said that there wasn't something growing for him. He was sweet and funny. Also super handsome. Which was a plus.

It was a nice breath of air to know that not all guys on this campus were complete jerks. Taeyong was different.

He was . . . a breath of fresh air.

She could see why her cousin wanted them to date so bad.

Park Girls always deserve the best. A motto the women of their family would forever use.

There had been times where she almost felt and he caught her. The two laughed, singing the song together, holding hands, it was so fun.

Whoever dates him, is the luckiest person in the world.

Having his attention wasn't bad at all.

Meanwhile, Jennie walked over to the arcade. After deciding the stop roller skating for the night, she was going to hang out with CL and Hyuna.

As she made it to the pinball machine, she was suddenly stopped by an arm, resting on the glass.

"Hello, Jen jen."

Jennie rolled her eyes, crossing her arms. "Hello, Satan. Funny, I didn't recognize you without one of your hoes with you."

Jimin chuckled uncaringly. Jennie turned to walk to a different game when Jimin quickly stopped her.

"Oh come on, Jen! Me and you had history. I would think you would be happy to see me."

She spun around with a furious look on her face. A look that could kill anyone ten times.

"Happy?! You took my virginity and then slept with my ex best friend behind my damn back!"

But Jimim just shrugged, not knowing what to say. "Jennie, honey, let it go."

"I'll let it go when you drop dead." Jennie spat out venomously before pushing past him roughly.

Jimin watched her walk away from hin with a diminishing smirk on his face. He would never admit it but her words hurt. Whenever anyone would bring it up, it would hurt.

But he couldn't tell them that. He would look weak and he couldn't let that happen.

Some part of him wants to reconcile with Jennie and hope theh could gry back together because he did have real feelings for her.

But he knew that it was never gonna happen. Not at all.

And he knew he fucked up but he also knew he wouldn't change. Not for her and definitely not for anyone else.

━━━ a u t h o r s n o t e

Aww Jimin really does have feelings.

Taeyong and Jisoo, eh???
