Third Person POV

"Yah wait up!" V chases after Jisoo, grabbing her arms which caused her to flinch.

Fear in her eyes was still evident.

V carefully removed his grip. "I think it's best if I walk you home... You know just to be safe."

Jisoo said nothing. She slightly nodded letting him know she was not against it and started walking again.

The entire walk home was quiet. V walked beside her, leaving enough distance between them, respecting her space.

"Uh—thank you..." Jisoo whispered upon arriving in front of her home.

A small smile crept into V's face, and rubbed his nape. "Don't worry it's nothing." Jisoo bowed one last time and began walking towards her front door.

V waited until she got in safely before he decided to leave.

☆☆☆

Her mind unconsciously wondered off at the thought of V. "What would've happened if he hadn't showed up... Ahh Jisoo stop thinking about it." she shivers in fear.

"But wait... why was he there?" She wonders.

Her safety was the least of her concern, what mattered most is to improve her skills as a ballerina and achieve her dreams. Therefore despite the fear at the back of her mind, she still decided to go to her lesson.

"Good work today Jisoo-ssi, if you could just open up your hips when jumping, I think it'll improve the performance much better." Madam BoA beams.

Jisoo took notice that Madam BoA was in a good mood that morning. The private lesson went unexpectedly well. This kindness was quite new to her, as she had just spent extra weeks with her and her brutal training.

Due to the lack of sleep Jisoo had last night, her outfit was quite laid back. It was noticeable that she did not try to look presentable at all. She had her classic school jogging pants and baggy sweatshirt. She also made sure to wear her glasses and bring a mask to hide her unpleasing appearance.

She lazily made her way through the halls, as her private lesson was the only thing in her schedule that day.

Her eyes focused at her feet, staring down as she walked.

"Omg I'm sorry." Jisoo apologizes as she was careless about her sense of direction, bumping into a stranger.

Jisoo now aware of her surroundings, was already near the exit when she spotted a familiar figure.

"Aish why's he here again." Jisoo cursed under her breath.

Jisoo quickly grabbed her face mask from her bag and applied it on. She lowered her glasses further making her face less recognizable. She took a quick deep breathe in before walking as quick and less noticeable as she can.

"You know even if you wore a wig or a hat, I would still recognize you baby." the man who was leaning against the brick wall now making his way towards Jisoo.

Jisoo immediately flinched when she knew she had been busted, but seconds later proceeded to run.

"Phew you really run fast don't you." the man gasping for air states as he grabs Jisoo by the arm to prevent her from going anywhere further.

Jisoo quickly swatted his grip from her, and irritably removed her face mask, facing him.

"V, what do you want now?" Jisoo asks annoyed.

"You see I was about to say 'you', but I know you would've just rolled your eyes and walked away so I'm not going to say that."

"I'm just here to get my payment." V uttered.

Jisoo looked at him with confusion written all over her face.

V chuckled at her expression, "I'm here to ask you again for a date—AND you can't say no because you owe me... I saved your life last night and now I get a date from you." V confidently said.

Jisoo was about to interrupt him, when she realized there was really no way out of this.

What's one date going to hurt? I mean he did save my life last night... I could've done it without him but this man just had to show up and call himself my saviour. UGH LORD JESUS HELP ME.

"Fine, but just ONE date."

V yells in excitement as if he had just won the world cup. He stretched his arms high up in the air and jumps joyfully.

"I'll see you tonight at 6 then?" V asks as he hands out tickets to the royal ballet opera.

Jisoo looks at it in awe. She always wanted to go but the tickets were just too expensive. She gladly accepted and unconsciously a big smile formed on her face. V was quick to notice her smile and felt satisfied with his choice.

Actually he's had those tickets with him prior when she first rejected him. He went through lots of trouble to attain the tickets since they were sold out. Fortunately, through connections he was able to find a seller. He practically spent a huge fortune on it. It was all worth it after seeing the smile on her face.

☆☆☆

"Crap what do you even wear on dates?!" Jisoo yells frustrated at the amount of times she's changed her clothes. She refused to contact Rosé and ask for help as she knew she would just bug her about it.

Quite surprisingly Jisoo had never been on a date before, despite her well known beauty. Dating was just not her priority and rejected whoever attempted. V would've fallen into that same category if Jisoo didn't feel indebted towards him.

"You know what screw it!" Jisoo lastly says as she decides to wear a long burnt orange maxi dress that scream sophisticated but also young and free.

Jisoo being the punctual person she is, arrived thirty minutes earlier at the venue. She wasn't bothered about having to wait for him. She went inside and sat at the waiting area trying to compose herself. Jisoo hated to admit it, but she was beyond nervous.

One, because she's never been on a date before. Two, she's always dreamt of watching a ballet play.

5:35...

5:45...

5:58...

6:05...

6:30...

6:43...

Time went by and by and still no V. Jisoo grew impatient and accepted the fact that she might had been stood up.

"What did I even expect" Jisoo thought completely feeling humiliated.

Jisoo contemplated for a while if she should just enter without him. But she was filled with rage that she knew she wouldn't enjoy as her mind would be centered at the fact that she had been stood up.

Jisoo decided to enter and watch the show without him. I wont let him ruin this night.

It was now nine in the evening and the play just finished. Jisoo walked slow and dragged her feet towards the entrance still thinking about the fact that SHE HAD BEEN STOOD UP.

"Hey omg good thing I still caught you." Jisoo looks at the owner of the voice, and at his grip around her shoulder. She quickly rolled her eyes, ignoring him, but waiting for his explanation. She deserved to know she thought.

"Look please I know I messed up, but please let me make up to you! The band practice took longer than expected. I couldn't just leave since I'm the lead singer and we had to record the song before a deadline." He explains. Guilt in his eyes were apparent.

Jisoo looks back at him, trying to formulate what to say because right now she was just speechless. Speechless at this situation. She opened her mouth slightly, but decided to just keep her thoughts to herself.

"Are you done?" She asks.

V nodded like a child.

Jisoo started walking away, V quite dumbfounded started chasing after her.

"Why are you just leaving like that? I've already said sorry haven't I?"

I loud sigh of disbelief came out of Jisoo's mouth. She has now lost every patience she had left and decided to finally speak up.

"Look V. I don't know how other girls you've asked out reacted when they've literally just been stood up. But just because you've apologized doesn't mean it's forgiven and forgotten. I know that what happened may not have been in your control, but you had a choice and you made your choice. I've done my end of the bargain, so I'm expecting to never see you again. Good bye V."

Jisoo tried to remain her composure and walked away leaving V behind once again.

This time V didn't try to go after her. He was now the one left speechless. No other girl has ever talked or treated him that way. Every woman would've just let it slide and go back to being sweet. But nope, Kim Jisoo is not like those girls.

A/N:

This chapter is kind of inspired by that time I got "stood up" by my "date". It wasn't as extreme as Jisoo's but I was supposed to go out with this guy one day, but he just never texted me back. Long story short I got "ghosted", AND long story short MEN R TRASH. hahahaha jk I am not bitter.
