Tiffany's POV

                As Eunhyuk oppa asked the questions, my attention began to drift off to the blonde girl who was seated beside me. She was totally trying to freeze me to death with that stare… but she was cute. Both her face and personality were—“Of course, acting is an important element to being in a musical! Remember my first day at practice?” Eunhyuk laughed (rather loud and obnoxiously) and began filling everyone in on the story—so darn cute. She and Jay also made a really cute couple. Everything about her was dazzling.

                Music began playing through my headset. That girl’s song. I listened intently to the sound of her voice… but my focus was lost when I was interrupted… by the sound of that same voice.

                “You like my song?” She asked as a smirk played out on her face. I looked up to see that everyone but me had already removed their headphones long ago and rushed to take mine off as well. Today really wasn’t my day…

                “Yeah, it’s great. The chorus especially.” I felt a bit awkward saying so, since it seemed like not many people shared my opinion. It was no secret that since she started dating Jay that her music wasn’t the primary focus of her career anymore. Her music barely even mattered as long as she was next to Jay.

                “Really?” She inquired with a sort of sad smile, “It’s not quite as good as Jay’s, but it’s pretty good.” Jay avoided my eyes, shifting his gaze to the ground. Suddenly the air felt heavy. “But I don’t mind losing if it’s to him.” Jessica reassured everyone. It really didn’t help the atmosphere much. Probably because she calmed down the room pretty effectively no matter what she said.

                Slightly frustrated, I mindlessly grabbed for her hands and held them securely in mine. “You should have more confidence!” I insisted. Oh god, what was I doing?! She probably thinks I’m so weird. Quickly, Tiffany. Think. Make this less creepy… “You’re v—song is amazing!” I barely caught myself, nearly having made things much worse by complimenting only her voice.

                Jay began to snicker as Jessica’s face turned a light shade of pink. Come to think of it… our faces were a little close weren’t they? Oh great Tiffany what has your hyperactive personality gotten you into this time?!

                On top of that, why Jessica Jung of all people? Everyone knows that she’s not exactly… the warmest and kindest of people… I could only imagine what horrible things she was doing to me in her head. Maybe something involving a medieval torture device.

                “Thanks…” Jessica muttered in a touched tone, having lifted up her head to meet my gaze.

                Now that I got a good look, her beauty became apparent. Even with minimal make-up, her eyes were noticeably so full of some emotion that I couldn’t quite read. Her lips were full, pink and plump, and still parted slightly as if she was going to continue but were currently at a loss for words.

                I for one was at a complete loss.

                “I really appreciate it,” She smiled just a simple one but my heart was already pounding out of my chest due to it. How could anyone have a smile that cute?!

                Oh my gosh, she and I… we could be…

                “BEST FRIENDS!” I excitedly exclaimed, causing her to jump away from me with a squeak. Oops I forgot we were so close to each other. My bad.

                Jessica wore a worried look as she looked me over, “Are you ok?” she asked slowly, as if not to trigger another scream. If it were anyone but her, I’d be embarrassed out of my mind. But that didn’t matter, since it was her.

                I took a second to calm myself down before continuing, equally excited, “We should hang out. We could be, like, best friends.” I finished the statement off in English.

                She smirked and placed her hand on mine, “Sure, why not?”

                Her voice really was something. Even speaking, I just loved to hear it. Jay was quite the lucky guy to end up with such a cute girlfriend, not that she wasn’t lucky to have such a handsome boyfriend as well.

                “It’s settled then,” I agreed with my signature eye-smile, “Are you free later?”

                Jessica glanced over at Jay, as if asking permission, to which he nodded. Then again with that smile. “Yeah, I’m free. We should do something—“

                “And we’re back and here in the studio we have the Jay-Jessica lovebirds and Ms. Carmen Diaz—Tiffany Hwang!” Eunhyuk interrupted, catching us off guard. We exchanged nods, agreeing to finish the conversation later.

Jay's POV

                 How did Tiffany manage to not get smacked for touching her?

                My mind had been completely blown since she and Jessica had their little moment during our break. Even if Tiffany was a girl, it wasn’t like Jessica not to try to destroy her with her harsh gaze. This was something new.

                I unconsciously gulped down the nervousness that had begun to build in my mouth.

                Was this Tiffany chick a… threat?

                We all stood and bowed, saying good bye before Jessica, Tiffany and I scurried out into the hallway.  As soon as we did so, though, Tiffany was quick to return back to Jessica’s side, much to my dismay.

                “So, Jessica, I was thinking that maybe you and I could go out for lunch. Did you get to eat yet?” Her sentences seemed so jumbled together for me. Her Korean skills already left quite a bit to be desired and coupled with her over enthusiastic tone and speech pattern, it was nearly impossible to make out what she was saying.

                Jessica seemed not to have the same issue as me, since she was able to reply so quickly. “I haven’t eaten. Jay woke up late so we had to rush here.” As usual, she put emphasis on my name, reminding me again how much she disliked me at times. “Lunch sounds great.” She finished with a smile.

                “Wonderful!” Tiffany clapped her hands together and turned to me, “You don’t want to come?” Well, let’s see. You’re horribly hyper, I can barely understand a word you say and you’re cute enough that I feel bad that I can’t understand what you’re saying.

                “I’d love to.”

                “But he can’t.”

                I cocked an eyebrow at Sica’s sudden protest. “You have a schedule today, remember?” She pointed out while wagging her finger at me, causing Tiffany to giggle.

                “That’s too bad. But you should come along next time for sure!”

                I wanted at that moment to pull Jessica away from the girl, unless Jessica would be so kind as to pull me away from her instead. Something about her bothered me… something about the way she looked at Jessica…

                I felt a hand grip the back of the shirt and roughly tug, causing me to stumble backwards slightly. I quickly spun around to check the owner of the hand and saw only my manager. “Come on, Jay. Don’t give me a hard time. You were already late once today.” I let out a deep sigh.

                Jessica smiled a teasing grin at me, placing her hands proudly on her hips in an I-told-you-so fashion. Geez, when did this girl get so cute? I held her cheek gently against the palm of my hand and smiled back at her.

                “I love you, Sica.” And before she could manage to give the same awkward thank you as usual, I pressed my lips lovingly against her unmoving ones, then pulled away and looked into her eyes. “I’ll see you tomorrow, ok? Call me?” She gazed at me, mildly confused by my actions and mildly embarrassed as well, but nodded.

                I motioned my manager that I was ready to go, but not before catching a quick glimpse of that Tiffany girl’s face. She had furrowed her brow and begun nibbling her lower lip.

                There really was something off about her.

Jessica's POV

                “There’s really something off about your boyfriend!” Tiffany bellowed as soon as we got into her manager’s car. I couldn’t help but giggle. Not that there was much else I could do, considering she really did have a point. Something was definitely off about Jay today and I couldn’t exactly put my finger on it, but I couldn’t really be bothered to figure it out either.

                If Jay wanted to PMS, that was fine, as long as he didn’t bleed all over my skirt. There were times when I really couldn’t stand him and his constant possessive attitude towards me, especially considering we weren’t even really in love or anything. Our relationship in front of the cameras really didn’t have to carry on so far off screen for him to…

                … Kiss me…

                Suddenly I was filled with a new batch of anger that I felt needed to be released, preferably, released in the form of my fist meeting that bastard’s face.

                Then I felt a warm sensation on my hand and looked down only to see my fingers now interlaced with Tiffany’s. Somehow, it looked so perfect and so… right. I glanced up to see Tiffany smiling brightly at me and couldn’t help but smile back at her.

                I really felt that God had decided to make up for this whole misunderstanding with Jay and the press by sending me one of his own personal angels. It was something strange for me to think of a girl this way.

                I brushed my thumb carefully over her milky white skin, admiring the silky feeling of her warm hand. I felt my eyes caught on hers which shone brightly against the darkness in the car, forming darling little crescent shapes while her cheeks moved up to reveal her perfect teeth.

                But somehow, despite all of this, I wasn’t the least bit ually attracted to her. I didn’t lust after her and curse my fate of being bound to Jay until the media was tired of us. I didn’t feel the overwhelming urge to strip her , take advantage of and soil her like I did most girls who I thought were beautiful. This was… something different. A pleasant kind of different. My heart wasn’t racing, beating out of my chest or doing anything besides its normal job. I couldn’t help but savor the sensation.

                “Yeah,” I replied after the silence hit, “Something is off about him, huh?” She pouted and nodded her head in a way reminiscent to a child complaining to mother that their other sibling had been bullying them. God, how could this girl possibly be so cute? I was usually against this type of cuteness but somehow I couldn’t resist patting her head.

                Our lunch consisted mostly of normal girl conversation; of heels versus flats, of colors of lipstick and of what type of men we’d like to meet. I felt guilty though, since it seemed that when the latter topic came up, she was the one leading the conversation all the way through.

                She seemed to understand my discomfort and didn’t mention Jay’s name a single time. I was grateful.

                But when my lips met the rim of my cup as I took a sip and burnt my tongue, I was somehow reminded of him. I knew the coffee was too hot, but I thought I should try to go for it anyway. I stuck my tongue out like a child for a moment, pouting about the small stinging sensation I was feeling.

                I guess he and I were similar in the way that we were both stubborn; though I think he beat me out in the category.

                After all, he knew but he insisted on dating me anyway, even if the chance I gave him would only last a week. He was aware he would end up hurt and the sooner he could get out, the less painful it would be for him in the future. But he persisted. It always had pained me a bit to see how much he was willing to put forward for me.

                He had always treated me like his proper girlfriend. Even if I was a lesbian.

A/N- Hey look, I finally updated! After one chapter I had already hit a writer's block... Originally I wanted this to be a Tiffany POV only chapter, but I ended up deciding to throw in Jay and after that... I mean, Jessica is kind of at the middle of this so I couldn't leave her out still. To those who have been asking for it to end in JeTi or JaySica, I already have some idea of how I want it to end... but I'm still more worried about getting there first lol. I hope you enjoyed. ♥
