Chapter 9

Lauren was currently in her office at her home, she was reviewing some reports, papers, and the auditions. Megan and Yujin were on the sofa also reviewing all the auditions they visit together with Ara since they wanted to see Lauren. Jihye and Ara were in the living compartment with Dohyun helping him with his dance.

Lauren doesn't know what to call Jihye's members. She realized that they are older than her. Megan and Ara are twenty - four years old while Yujin is Twenty - five years old. She has been thinking that when her wife's friends went inside the house and hugged her. Megan and Yujin went close to her and shower their opinions and approved auditions. They are also founded on Lauren's classifications of a person.

Lauren reviews it while the two girls are moving around the office "uh before I give my opinion. I certainly want to know how should I call you all, I mean except for Jihye. You know I'm from Los Angeles and I don't know some cultures here but my sister called me Unnie. Should I call you that?" Lauren asked a bit embarrassed. Yujin and Megan found it cute.

"Well, it depends on you. We don't mind since you're Jihye's wife" Roseanne said shrugging. "But I need to respect you all since you know you guys are older. Even though I'm Jihye's wife I also need to respect her circle of friends and her relatives" Lauren muttered while resting her elbow on her table

"It's your choice, we don't mind. Usually showing respect is bowing or you're helping somebody. Call us by our first names because even though I'm the oldest in the group they usually just call me by my first name" Yujin said sitting beside Megan. Lauren just smiled and nodded.

Speaking of Jihye and her, well it's been a week now and they are doing well. Jihye decided to your Lauren around Korea, let her try to taste the street foods, bring her to the place that was important to her, show where her sister tutored, and toured her around the entertainment. Jihye also took her out on some dates trying her best not to get captured while Lauren, on the other hand, was so happy, she was just clinging to Jihye and listening to her stories, she also bought her some clothes and treat her somewhere she likes. Jihye was trying her best to stop her but Lauren was too stubborn so she just let her. They also had a double date with Roseanne and Suzy. In that week also, Lauren is being the best wife she always cooks Jihye her meals, if she's hungry she will cook for her, clean the house with Jihye. While Jihye on the other wouldn't stop her cheesy lines, she always brings her some flowers, helps her with the task even help her with some office work. She wouldn't leave her wife alone.

Lauren was talking to Yujin and Megan asking her some questions about the entertainment especially Megan since she's planning to find another entertainment that she will sign. While Lauren was elucidating her phone rang and looked at it. It was Suzy she got confused since it was their rest day but she excused herself to the girls and answered.

"Suzy, why'd you call?" Lauren asked sitting on the couch

"Are you busy tomorrow? I want you to meet my friend and she really wouldn't stop asking if you're free tomorrow so she could meet you since she was fan girling over you" Suzy said while sighing.

Lauren chuckled and shook her head "It's still our day off tomorrow, maybe I can. Who's that? Have you perhaps told me about her?"

"I haven't, I always forgot to tell you about her. You can take Jihye with you since I will also take Megan with me"v Lauren hummed "By the way, Is Megan in your house?" Suzy asked, Lauren was on speaker so the girls is hearing what they were talking about. Megan instantly shook her head with wide eyes and the CEO got confused.

"Uhh, No? She's n-not here" Lauren said hesitantly while Megan sigh in Relief "W-why?"

"Oh, why do you seem nervous? Well, just so you know I was working in her office yesterday and decided to do some of her laundries when I saw a stained lipstick and smelled a different scent of perfume and she wasn't answering my text" Lauren is trying not to laugh since Megan was already embarrassed and Yujin is laughing her ass off. Just then, Lauren's wife and Ara came into the office

"Hey Megan, Suzy told me that you need to go home before seven," Ara said causing Megan to quickly slap the back of her head and Lauren started laughing. She could see the idol's terrified face

"MEGAN! YOU BETTER GO HOME!" Suzy shouted through the phone and Lauren instantly ended the call. Megan was already slapping Ara on the arms.

"THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT! IF WE DIDN'T PULL OUT THE PRANK I SHOULD HAVE SLEEPING BESIDE HER YESTERDAY!" Megan said while slapping Ara's arms while the poor girl is already trying to stop her. Yujin and Jihye are just shooking their heads while Lauren found it very funny. It's very rare for her to see this kind of scene.

"I'm just curious how she gets mad and be jealous," Ara said pouting

"Ugh, I need to face her right now. She sounds so mad" Megan said leaving while Ara followed her wanting to help her while Lauren shook her head and went close to Jihye to wipe her sweat. Yujin came back sitting beside Jihye

"I can't believe Suzy is a possessive type," Yujin said looking at the CEO

"I had no idea that Suzy was like that. I thought she was soft and..well you know wild but I was wrong" Jihye thanked her wife and Lauree handed her a shirt. Yujin was looking at Jihye and she smirked.

"What?" Jihye asked curiously

"Hey, Lauren" Lauren hummed "You wanna know how possessive Jihye is?" Yujin smirked while Jihye widened her eyes ready to cover Yujin's mouth but her wife instantly went to her lap and hold her hands tightly while Jihye is trying her best to let go of the grip.

"Yujin please" Jihye muttered pleadingly but Yujin continued to smirk and whispered some things to Lauren while Jihye is shouting wanting Lauren not to understand anything. She is possessive, especially to someone that she truly loves, she usually never let anyone touch a strand of her wife's hair, let anyone hold her, and just glare at anyone whoever someone looks at her territory. She may be that kind of person but Jennie will just usually cling and just kiss her in front of many people.

Lauren was smiling while listening to Jihye's statement about Jihye being the possessive girl. She found it adoring but Jihye doesn't know how Lauren is also possessive, she just doesn't like to show everyone since she faces the camera like a cold, strict, and rude person but if she loves someone well you better get your ass off because most likely Lauren wouldn't want to touch and flirting on what's hers. She knew as of now her feelings are getting serious towards Jihye and she knows what to do to the person who touches her, she will most likely throw daggers at that person and kick their ass off. Lauren knew she also need to be protective towards Jihye knowing her wife is a famous idol.

Just then Lauren let go of Jihye but look at her straight in the eyes while she's pouting. She looks so cute.

"Awww, Are you mad?" Lauren said squishing her wife's cheeks while Jisoo is surprised that Laurene was like this. Jennie wasn't looking at her and Lauren is giggling "Come onnnnn, J. I'm dying to know how possessive you are. You know I adore every inch of you" Jihye was smiling like crazy, they have been flirting for most of the week and Jihye knew Lauren is slowly showing her true colors and she also clings a lot.

"Oh really? So you adore me?" Jihye asked looking at Lauren who's smiling at her but shook her head while Jihye frowned ready to do the thing that she needs to she looks at her wife teasingly both of her hands slowly going to her wife's sides.

"J. Don't ever think about" Just then Jihye started tickling her sides and Lauren was laughing trying to get off from Jennie but she couldn't. Lauren's laugh make Jihye's heart swell in madness and her heart is fluttering while Yujin was shaking her head, it was new for her that Lauren is that kind of person while she's also happy seeing Jihye having fun with the love of her life and doing her best to make the girl fall in love with her. She stood up from the couch wanting to let her friend enjoy her time with her wife.

"Hey lovebirds. I'll be going already" Yujin said while wearing her coat

"Alright, Chu!" Jihye said giggling while tickling Lauren's side

"Bye Yujin!" Lauren manages to say while laughing. Lauren was already underneath her wife while Jihye is sitting on her stomach. This is usually their game to tease each other, it doesn't make them comfortable because they knew to themselves they have the right to touch each other.

They were just married for a week and heck here they are now being comfortable with each other so it means Jihye was doing her best to make Lauren fall in love with her. This wouldn't happen if Lauren wasn't right?

Jihye stopped when she saw her wife out of breath and fixed her hair, she was admiring her while rubbing her cheeks and Lauren opened her eyes seeing Jihye looking at her adoringly "You're so beautiful" Jihye said whispering looking at her wife's eyes than to her lips.

Lauren smiled and fix Jennie's bangs "You are too and your cheeks look like a dumpling," Lauren said while Jihye rolled her eyes playfully

"I'm trying to be romantic," she said

"You are romantic, My Romantic Wife and my cute little squishy baby," Lauren said squishing Jihye's cheeks. Jihye was blushing and her heart is melting already. When the word "my" was coming out from her wife's mouth it feels like she was owning her already and it makes her more confident to be bold and be touchy. They hold hands in public, with face masks on and hats that surely they wouldn't recognize. Jihye usually kisses the top of her head while Lauren is resting her head on her shoulder while Lauren just loves kissing her cheeks and clinging to her, locking their hands together like she's gonna go away beside her.

"I'm your Squishy Baby?" Jihye asked lowly while Lauren nodded and smiled.

"Gosh I want to kiss her," Lauren said to her mind.

They were just looking at each other Jihye just wanted to dive in and kiss her on the lips, she was slowly leaning in looking at Lauren's eyes than to her lips. If this kiss ever happens and Lauren responded she was sure that the CEO likes her back and she owns her. She slowly leaned in their nose touching, Lauren closed her eyes wanting to feel Jihye's lips then it happened.

"Soft, just what I expected'" Jihye said to her mind.

Their lips were moving in sync, Jihye's right hand was in her wife's cheek while her left hand was in her wife's waist. Lauren put her both hands in her wife's neck to pull her closer. She was enjoying the kiss and it felt good. This is what she dreamt of. She has been looking at Jihye's lips when she realized her true feelings towards her.

Jihye entered her tongue in her wife's mouth exploring every side and inch of her wife's mouth. Lauren let out a small gasp but ended up moaning since Jihye's tongue felt so good. She doesn't want to end this.

Their heavy breathing can be heard. It's a good thing Dohyun was downstairs playing some video games. Lauren doesn't want them to see making out right now because for sure he might tell this to her Mom she doesn't want to spoil anything at the moment.

Jihye slowly pulled out the kiss while looking at Lauren, she was in relief when she saw her wife smiling contently and softly. She slowly kissed her cheek causing Lauren to open her eyes and look at Jihye.

This is just the way how they show their affection.

"I like you I mean no I love you and I'm so in love with you," Jihye said looking at her wife lovingly. Lauren put her hands on her wife's cheek and rubbed it using her thumb.

"I like you"  Lauren blurted out but Jihye smiled in relief. Lauren wanted to be like Jihye she was so confident saying her true feelings, she doesn't want to be unfair. It's not like she's thinking of this kind of scene but she doesn't know what will happen in the future, she was overthinking about it, her thoughts are what if Jihye will leave someday soon, what if something bad happens to her and herself? She wanted to cherish this to finally be more confident showing what she truly feels towards her wife.

Jihye pecked her lips two times and Lauren smiled, there's no way Jihye will let her go not now, not never because she's truly in love with her wife and want to spend the rest of her life with her.

Lauren was currently on the huge balcony wherein there was a couch it was like an outdoor terrace wherein she can see the view. Her laptop was right in front of her and she was talking with her friends. Lauren told them about her dates with Jihye, their whereabouts as of now, and the thing that happened last night.

"You confessed already?" Gabbie asked still surprised "Woah, it hits different when you're in love" He followed

Lauren smiled dreamingly remembering what happened last night in her office.

"So, when are you two gonna have babies?" Gia said causing Lauren to be back to her thoughts. She knew what she meant, she might like hot persons with abs and others but she was too naive for that. Yes, that's right she wants babies but she's also not ready for it at this age.

"Hey, Lauren is just twenty three let's give her more time," Elle said while looking at the camera

"But you know, It depends when will faith or God will give you that. But, it's gonna be both of your decisions. It's not hard for the both of you because I mean you both are already billionaires" Mai said leaning in her chair.

Lauren has been thinking about it before she sleeps last night. Now, that she confessed to Jihye what if her wife already wants one. But, she doesn't want to open up anything about this to Jihye knowing she still gets shy sometimes.

Lauren just changed the topic, asking them what are their whereabouts, their plans and when will they visit her. Lauren also asked about Gabbie's wedding since he just proposed to his girlfriend last week. He said they are planning on it already.

Jihye on the other hand was with Ara in the kitchen. The Thai was talking about what happened between Yujin and Suzy, she explained everything to the Korean. It took them time to relax but good thing Suzy finally believed it when Ara decided to visit. Jihye was laughing hard.

The Dancer also told to the Thai what happened last night and Ara was so happy for them, she just can't believe everything went fast, it's just been a week and her best friend already got her girl officially even though her wife isn't in love with her but it's big progress that Lauren likes her it means the results will be better.

They were sitting on the couch watching some boring tv shows when Ara got curious about something.

"Hey, Jih?" Ara said while Jihye hummed "By any chance, do you have plans to have a family with your wife? I mean do you want to have a baby?" The Girl asked looking at her best pal.

Jihye of course has been thinking of that ever since they got married. She wanted to have kids with her because Lauren was her ultimate crush and having a family with her is something that she wished for.

"I mean, It's boring if you both don't have plans and you're getting older" Jihye looked at Ara sharply and glared at her causing the Thai to look away

"Mommy said Lauren wants to have a kid, well I want one too," Jihye said getting her coffee on the table

"just one?" Ara asked while Jihye shaker her head

"Not just one but four" Ara's eyes widened and looked at Jihye as if she's serious Jihye just nodded "I mean, look. Lauren has a lot of business, companies, and entertainment and my Mom is gonna pass all their business and agency to me. Once I and Lauren got older we need someone to manage it. I mean it will depend on how many that she likes" Jihye said shrugging

"You have a point," Ara said "For sure, Lauren wouldn't like just one kid. She grew up alone and she doesn't want her future kids to be like her" Jihye conceded. She also realized that.

Lauren came down with her laptop in her hands, Lei and Liz were following her from behind while Kum ran to her. Lauren looked at the living room seeing her wife and her best friend talking about Ara's plan after the contract. She doesn't want to interrupt but Ara caught her attention.

"Hi Lauren" Ara waved, Lauren smiled and waved at her as Jihye pouted her lips. Lauren rolled her eyes playfully she came close to her and give her a peck. She knew Lauren was just getting the chance to kiss her on the lips.

"What's up for today Ara?" Lauren asked sitting beside her wife as Kum sat in her lap and Jihye rest her hands on her wife's thigh.

"I just dropped by. I just completed my photoshoot in your building. It was nice by the way" Lauren smiled and thanked Ara

"Thank you" Lauren smiled, she turned to look at Jihye "Babe, I'm gonna meet up with Suzy. Want to come?" Lauren implored

Jihye's heart fluttered to the new endearment "I thought it's your day off?" Jihye asked

"Well, someone wanted to meet me. I heard she was also a CEO, Megan will be there" Lauren said standing up and playing with the channels

"Heck I'm going with you. I don't want that girl to touch somewhere your body" Lauren shake her head and kissed Jihye on the cheeks

"Fine dumpling. I'll take a bath" Lauren stood up and tap the rapper's cheek as she quickly went upstairs. Jihye sighs dreamingly and leans her back on the couch.

"In love Mandu," Ara said standing up and wearing her coat.

"You're leaving?" Jihye asked Ara hummed "Yeah, I'm meeting my Mom and Dad since we need to talk about something serious. Quite nervous about it though" Jihye nodded and said Goodluck. When Ara left the idol quickly went upstairs and went to their bedroom.

Jihye was looking at the said restaurant while Lauren was texting Suzy saying they arrive.

"Honey, you should have told me that this was a luxury restaurant. I should have worn more formal clothes" Jihye said while Lauren looked at her

"You look good" she kissed her nose and Jihye scrunched her nose as Lauren giggled "Turn off the engine, I already saw Megan" Jihye nodded and turned it off. She didn't forget to wear her mask before she come out and open the car door for her wife. Lauren instantly thanked her and called Megan. The Blonde instantly smiled at us and they followed them to the private room wherein Suzy and the CEO was there.

Lauren was clinging to Jihye and when they went inside they instantly welcomed Suzy and a familiar girl. Jihye looked at Megan and she shrugged. The familiar girl instantly stood up and smiled brightly.

"It's finally nice to meet you in person Lauren," The girl said as Lauren unclung to her wife and smiled as she shake the girl's hand.

"Thank you," She said and looked at Suzy just nodding at her

"I'm Jieun. The CEO of Lee's agency" Lauren formed an 'O' to her mouth not knowing what to say since she's not familiar with that. Lauren sat across them while Jihye sat beside her.

"Oh, by the way. This is my wife, Jihye" Jihye was taken aback, she didn't expect that she introduced her as her wife. She couldn't be happier "Don't worry I know her?" Jihye said as Jieun smiled, Lauren was confused and raised her brow "Really?" she asked gripping her wife's hands as Jihye chuckled.

"She's Ara's long-time crush" Lauren was in relief she thought Jieun was her wife's ex or something.

"I see. So, How are you? I heard that you're looking forward to meeting me?" Lauren said as the waiter placed the foods that Suzy ordered, she knew what to order since she knows what are Lauren's likes and dislikes.

"I'm doing alright. Yeah, I'm looking forward I've been having high hopes that we'll meet at the fashion show last year but you didn't come" Jieun said

"I was busy," Lauren said trying not to say that she was busy having a good time in the Bahamas since she wanted to clear her mind because of her Dad's death.

"Understood, So How's Jihye as a wife" Jihye instantly looked at her wife and she was raising her brow while Lauren is trying not to laugh. Jihye rests her hand on her thigh and grips it wanting her to say something good.

"Jihye is a good wife, she is sweet and very stubborn," Laurene said causing Roseanne to laugh while Suzy is smiling

"Babe" Jihye whines and pout

"Don't pout it's not cute?" Megan said and Jihye glared at her while Suzy looked at her sharply she instantly gulped and gave a peace sign.

Jieun laughed since they know the girls, Ara was her ex she was relieved that Jihye told her that she was Ara's long-time crush. She doesn't want anyone to know.

The conversation continued and Lauren was intently listening to Jieun's stories while Suzy was being lovey-dovey with Megan. Lauren felt that Jihye was being touchy mostly her hand is in her abdomen she doesn't like to be touched in that part because it was a huge turn-on for her, so she took her hands to intertwine them with her under the table.

It was just all about Lauren's life and Lauren was also asking about Jieun's agency and business. She runs an entertainment and she was also a famous idol and Actress. She was surprised by it, this was the seventh time that she met an idol. She never met ordinary people that she was expecting and wanted since she wanted to make friends. She even want to be friends with the neighbors but her wife was just laughing at her.

It was a two-hour talk, they still talk about each other, getting to know and ended up laughing with Jihye and Megan. Jieun also talked about how Suzy and she met. Turns out she met Suzy at a press conference that Lauren asked and they instantly become friends since Jieun knows that she works with the famous CEO. It wasn't surprising at all since a lot of people are using Lauren's employees to be close with her sometimes even trying to win her compassion but sadly Lauren is trying to avoid those at that time.

After the meeting, Lauren and Jihye were in the bedroom. Jihye was laying in bed while Lauren is rechecking the things that they will bring to Paris. Lauren didn't don't know that it will be their honeymoon.

"Babe, how many dresses should I bring?" Lauren asked while holding some makeup and coming out from the restroom.

"As many as you want, we're staying there for one week. Is that okay? If you have something to do we can make it three days" Jihye said helping Lauren to pack

"It's fine, I asked Suzy to look out for the company and do her works. This was so sudden" Lauren uttered sitting at the edge of the bed and rolling the wire of her charger

"I'm sorry Honey, I just want to take you out for relaxation. We can do the things that you like when we're in Paris" Jihye said trying not to blurt out that it was their honeymoon.

Lauren smiled, she wanted to be in that place when she gets married. She doesn't know if Jihye considers this as their honeymoon she wouldn't complain since it's normal to have a honeymoon after you get married.

After they pack their things, they already headed to the airport. Lauren was shocked she was expecting they'll be leaving early in the morning but turns out it will also be on the same day.

William and Romel dropped them out at the airport and Lauren ordered them to look after their penthouse and the dogs which they instantly agreed.

They were now on the plane and Lauren was sleeping deeply and Jihye was looking at her adoringly. She doesn't know if the honeymoon will consist of intimacy, she doesn't know if Lauren would want that, she doesn't know if Lauren will enjoy it but she's having high hopes that she really will Enjoy it. The thing is, she wants to talk about their future together in Paris. Similarly, she wanted to indicate to Lauren that they are already making good memories and life together and this was their first stop.

After a long flight, they were picked up by Jihye's bodyguard. Lauren was looking at the window on their way to the hotel while their hands were intertwined, it's been a year now since she last came here and her heart is so happy. She wanted to show Jihye where her Dad and Mom took a picture because she also wants to do it with Jihye.

They finally arrived at the hotel and the bodyguard helped Jennie to bring all the luggage while Lauren is looking around the room, it was huge and luxurious. Jihye took this kind of room since she wants to give everything to her wife. Jihye closed the door and instantly hugged her wife from behind since she was looking at the view, she kissed her cheeks and Lauren smiled and leaned in.

"What are you thinking?" Jihye implored

"Nothing, just admiring the view," Lauren said and kissed Jihye's chin

"I wanted to let you know that this isn't just like a tour. This is our Honeymoon. I wanted to ask you this after our marriage but turns out you will be going back to Los Angeles for work" Lauren's eyes brighten and looked at Jennie with a worried expression

"Why are you worried?" Lauren asked

"I'm nervous because our honeymoon was too late" Lauren shake her head and looked turned around to face Jihye as she cups her cheek

"It's not late, we just had a lot of going on and you know you toured me around Korea and it was just like our mini honeymoon and even had a vacation with Suzy and Roseanne. I'm really happy because I'm here at my favorite and happy place and also you're here" Lauren said and Jihye blushed.

Jihye kissed the top of her head and went to the nightstand to take the champagne. She gives one to Lauren and Lauren thanked her. They were looking at the view enjoying the view and talking about random things until they finished the full bottle of Champagne.

Lauren just came out from the bathroom, she was wearing a bathrobe since she just finished taking a bath. Jennie was trying not to look at her but failed, Lauren was just so hot and sexy. She stood up from the bed and came close to Lauren as she held her chin and looked at her straight in the eyes.

"You're fucking Gorgeous" Lauren chuckled when Jihye cursed.

"What's with the sudden mood?"

"Nothing, you're just so pretty," Jihye said kissing her wife's shoulder. She's feeling a bit hot, she wanted to remove it by taking a bath but seeing her wife in this style she can't even cope up with it.

Lauren was sighing Jihye was already leaving wet kisses on her neck, she wanted to stop because she was tired but it felt good. Once she couldn't take it, she turned around and kissed Jihye fully on the lips. They were kissing steamily their mouth is moving in sync.

Jihye's hand was roaming around her wife's back, Lauren knew what sign this is already. So she do the first move by unbuttoning the button of her outfit. Jihye untied the robe and lay, Lauren, in the bed.

If it happens, it happens

they both said in their mind
