The door of the rented house in Tokyo closed behind Jennie with a tired sigh.
— Ugh… —she muttered, dropping her bag on the couch. — Rehearsals, interviews, soundcheck… I deserve an award just for surviving today.–She kicked off her shoes and walked into the living room when something felt… off.Too quiet. Jennie narrowed her eyes.
— That’s suspicious… —she murmured. — Way too suspicious.–She turned around.And froze.Right in the middle of the room stood you. Huge. Strong. Basically a human tank.Wearing the cutest glasses imaginable.And holding a Cinnamoroll cake, carefully balanced in your hands, with a single candle in the center and the number 30 on top.For two seconds, Jennie just blinked.On the third, she exploded.
— NO WAY —she gasped, covering her mouth. — NO. WAY.–She burst into laughter, loud and bright, bouncing slightly in place.
— YOU’RE HERE?! —she pointed at you, completely shocked. — IN JAPAN?! IN MY HOUSE?!–She rushed toward you, almost running, eyes sparkling like a kid on their birthday.— AND IT’S CINNAMOROLL! —she nearly screamed. — YOU CHOSE CINNAMOROLL!–She leaned dramatically toward the cake.
— Sorry, Kuromi… but today isn’t about you.–She closed her eyes, blew out the candle with enthusiasm, then clapped her hands happily.
— That’s it! Level 30 unlocked!–Without hesitation, Jennie threw her arms around you, hugging you tightly, burying her face against your broad chest.
— You’re insane —she laughed. — Completely insane. And I love you for it.–She lifted her head and gave you several quick, playful pecks on the lips, one after another.
— I thought you’d only show up after the tour —–she said, still holding onto your shirt. — Do you have any idea how much you scared me?–She stepped back just enough to inspect the glasses.
— Okay, we need to talk about this. —She crossed her arms.— You’re way too cute right now. This should be illegal.–Then Jennie tilted her head, soft and curious, eyes full of affection.
— You’re coming to the show tomorrow, right? —she asked sweetly. — Tokyo Dome.–A proud smile spread across her face.— I wanna know exactly where you’ll be standing. Because even with a full stadium… —she tapped her chest. — I always feel it when you’re watching me.–Suddenly, her smile shifted.Not gone just upgraded into boss Jennie mode.She crossed her arms again, serious now.
— Alright, enough cuteness. —She raised a finger. — We need to talk about your fights.Jennie looked at you firmly.
— You fight too much. You train too hard. You get hurt too often. —She sighed. — I see everything. News, videos, comments… you really think I don’t worry?–She stepped closer, gently holding your arm.
— You might be the king of punches, covered in medals and trophies… —her voice softened. — But with me, you’re my teddy bear. And teddy bears don’t jump into fights without thinking.–Jennie took a deep breath, then smiled again warm and sincere.
— Promise me you’ll take care of yourself? — –she asked quietly.She rested her forehead against yours.
— Thirty years old… —*she whispered with a grin.$ — In Tokyo. On tour. And you waiting for me with a cute cake.–A soft laugh escaped her.—This is definitely… — she kissed the corner of your lips. — the best birthday of my life.
