Tiffany knew that she had crossed the boundaries of being friends with benefits as she felt her heart ached a little when Jessica settled an appointment with another girl - probably just for the good - but then again, she shouldn't feel upset. It was wrong.

"I'm meeting Yuri later, you want to come?"

"?"

"Yeah,"

"Nah, I'm cool. I'm meeting this new girl, Taeyeon, later,"

It was a lie. She wasn't going to meet up with the short girl. It was probably her fault when she screamed out the wrong name during the session and it made Taeyeon a little madder than she should be - leaving bruises on Tiffany as she stomped out of the hotel door. Tiffany was sure that she wasn't going to meet her anytime soon.

"Ohh I see. Tell me how it was! Maybe I'll get her too,"

"Yeah, sure,"

She was sure that she would never introduce Taeyeon to Jessica.  She wasn't stupid enough to let Jessica have fun with another girl - her heart couldn't take the pain.

-

As much as she tried to stay calm about this whole situation, she couldn't help but to get drunk at a nearby bar when Jessica told her that she was meeting up with another girl that night.

"Hey there,"

Tiffany turned around to look at a tall stranger smiling brightly at her.

"Hey,"

"You alone?"

"Yeah,"

"Can I then buy you a drink?"

Tiffany knew exactly what this girl was looking for.  She knew how these people work - going up to a girl, initiating a conversation, buying the girl a drink and then . So to save herself the trouble of pretending to be interested in what the other girl was about to say, she wanted to cut to the chase.

"No,"

She saw the surprised look surface on the stranger's face as she rejected her out rightly. It was a gay bar after all, and the tall girl hadn't expected anyone to turn her down flatly just like that.

Tiffany had to admit that the girl was kind of cute, especially when she didn't know what to say and had a lost look on her face. It made her chuckle a little.

"I -"

"What I meant was that.." The brunette stood up from the seat as she leaned forward to whisper seductively into the other girl's ear, "Why not just let us get straight into ?"

The stranger blushed even further as Tiffany started her neck.

"Oka-okay,"

She felt a pair of lips curving upwards against her soft skin as the shorter girl guided her to the hotel  room upstairs.

-

Tiffany was roughly pushed against the wall as the other girl stripped her.

"Yoon-Yoona, slow down!"

Yoona became a little more aggressive when they reached the room. She didn't heed Tiffany's words as she continued to handle Tiffany roughly.

"URGH JESSICA!"

It happened again. The wrong name was being voiced out. It made Yoona stop everything she was doing.

"Don't stop!" Tiffany cried out as she felt the lack of movements.

"Who is Jessica?"

"Please, just continue,"

"No,"

"PLEASE, I'M BEGGING YOU,"

"No,"

So Yoona picked up her clothes and dressed herself up before walking towards the door. She halted in her steps as she opened it.

"Next time before you decide to have one night stands, make sure you know who is doing it to you. It may not be a long relationship like what you had with your Jessica, but we have feelings too,"

Tiffany groaned as she hears the door being slammed shut.

It seems like she was left there, all hot and bothered.

And it was because of Jessica Jung.

So she decided, why not call the person responsible for this messed up life of hers?

Incoming Call

Tiffany Hwang

 "Are you free now?"

-

Tiffany and Jessica were having lunch as they planned to discuss about the upcoming fashion show.  It was until the young brunette decided to voice out a random question that the silence was broken. Well, it wasn't exactly random - that is if you considered your future as something important. She desperately needed to know what sort of relationship they had.

"Uhh Jessica,"

"Yes?"

"I have something to ask you,"

"What is it?"

"About last night.."

"I thought you knew about the unspoken rule of not talking about the we had,"

"I know, bu-"

"Then keep to it,"

Tiffany tried her best to control her tears from spilling as she felt a dull ache in her chest.

-

"Jessi-JESSI!"

There they were again, Tiffany's body trapped between Jessica's one and the cold wall.

The older girl had invited Tiffany over to her house again - the brunette wasn't stupid to not know where it was leading to, but she still dumbly follows it anyway. It was going to be another unmentioned night, much to Tiffany's dismay.

Was this love? Was this some kind of sick infatuation or was it more of her masochistic nature that made her like Jessica - knowing that she will be hurt if she falls in love with her friend?  

But she continues to keep quiet about the entire thing, refusing to even drop little hints about her feelings. She couldn't afford to risk this - anything was better than Jessica completely out of her life, which was probably the outcome if she confesses.

"Jessi, Jessi!"

She moaned as Jessica calmed her down from her high by kissing her deeply on the lips, hands roaming around the younger girl's body. As fatigue slowly took over, Jessica rolled over to the other side of the bed and laid right beside Tiffany.

As hard as she tried to control her tongue, Tiffany couldn't help but to slip the taboo phrase out of . Taboo being I love you, ironically something that was meant to be said after a long session of love making. But then again, what she and Jessica had was , not love making. There wasn't enough love for it to even take place.

Although it was a mere whisper, the room was quiet enough for Jessica to catch it.

"Wh-what?"

Jessica was caught off guard. Truthfully, she had noticed the younger girl becoming a little more clingy, a little more possessive than she should be. But the older girl had merely shrugged it off as some sort of once-in-a-while-obsessive-phase kind of thing and completely pushed the idea of the younger girl loving her at the back of her head.

Tiffany didn't expect Jessica to hear her sighing confession as she snapped her eyes open to realise her slip. She committed a crime in their friend with benefits society, a heinous crime at that.

"What?"

"Did you just say you love me?"

"N-no," Tiffany tried lying her way out of this, mentally praying that the older girl was convinced that she was hallucinating.

"Hmm,"

Jessica gave a brief and weird reply as she turned to her side, falling straight into a deep sleep. Tiffany silently thanked the Gods that the blonde decided to just let this entire thing slip by.

-

Okay, maybe not.

She swears Jessica was avoiding her.

The girl hadn't called her for the past week or even texted her for that matter. It was unusual because they would normally have a fling once or twice (they once had everyday ) every week. But her phone never once vibrated at night and Tiffany needed someone to touch her - she was desperate.

She curses herself for what she was about to do next - wearing her favourite lingerie underneath her winter jacket, getting ready to drive all the way down to Jessica's house, confronting the older girl and hopefully get some out of it.

-

"I'm coming! Stop ringing the bell already!"

The consistent ringing of the doorbell annoyed Jessica - hell, the first ring had disturbed Jessica from her nap. She was getting ready to curse at the impatient visitor but her anger vanished when she saw Tiffany standing at her doorstep, body covered with white snow.

"What are you doi-"

The younger girl just pounced on the blonde as soon as the door opened. The confession she had in mind wasn't supposed to be as aggressive as this - she remembered imagining Jessica and her diplomatically talking on the couch with a hot cup of chocolate in their hands. But then again, Jessica makes her do stupid things, one of which was this - throwing away her pride, her friendship with Jessica just to fulfill her real want - a real and proper relationship with the older girl.

Jessica stumbled backwards in shock. But her eyelids slowly closed as Tiffany probed her tongue into . She held onto the girl's derriere for support as the brunette wrapped her legs around Jessica's waist, hands wrapped around the older girl's neck, pulling her closer towards herself. The blonde started to climb up the stairs as the younger girl clung tightly onto her body. She hastily pushed Tiffany onto the bed and hovered over her.

"Are you sure you want this?"

"I love you Jessica. I really do,"

"I think I heard you the last time round,"

"You really did?"

"I'm not stupid you know. Just because I fell asleep doesn't mean I was convinced that you didn't say it,"

"I-"

"I have been avoiding you this entire week,"

So she admitted.

"But it was because I was thinking about us,"

Tiffany remained silent as she continues to listen to Jessica.

"I don't know if I love you or if everything is just a fling, but I'm willing to give us a chance, give you a chance to prove to me that everything can last. That is if we can remain loyal to each other," The older girl tried to laugh her cheesy confession off but her lips curved up to a smile as she was brought down to meet Tiffany's lips.

"I promise you that I will make you fall for me. I promise I will prove to you that everything we have real is and lasting,"
