Jennie's POV

My stomach growled in hunger as I waited for the bell . due to my constant laziness and tardiness I forgot to eat breakfast . and to rub salt to an open wound my last meal was yeststerday's afternoon due to the fact that I played online games til I passed out without eating dinner .

Finally the bell rang and all students including me ran off the cafeteria . I didn't bother to apologize if I bumped or pushed someone in the way .

"Sup Jen! In a hurry ?" I looked behind and saw my best friend Jisoo.

"Yeah I'm so hungry as a bear" my stomach growled in agreement which Caused Jisoo to laugh at me .

"Geeh! You forgot to eat again last night! You'll get sick if you kept on skipping meals" .

"Whatever" I shrugged as I waited my turn in line .

We both saw our friends Taehyung, Kai, Mino and Rosé at our usual table "Hey guys!" Jisoo greeted them as we sat .

"Hi Jennie, where's Yerin?" Kai asked as he shoves a sandwich in his mouth .

"We broke up." I deadpanned as I concentrated on my own meal .

"Oh yeah!" Kai said as he held his hands towards Mino and Taehyung.

"How much ?" I asked .

These three guys always bet on how long my relationship was gonna last . For some kind of reason , I can never keep a relationship for a month .

"Hundred bucks" Mino replied as he placed the bills on Kai's open palm. I was shocked to see that even Jisoo and Rosé also placed hundred bucks each.

"Seriously? You Two Too!?" I sent an accusing glare to my two lady friends.

"Well...I really thought that you'll make it past a week this time." Rosé explained. "Yerin is such a nice girl. What the hell did you do this time to scare her away?" She questioned and I just shrugged. I may be a player but I always keep my relationship private.

"You owe me a new game Kai!" I said. Since they were betting on me, I should have some of the winnings too. "And a beer too!".

"Of course! first round on me on Friday!" He exclaimed in delight. Friday night was beer night and this week, Kai's hosting in his place. "And just let me know which game you want" .

"So..." Taehyung my boy counterpart started. But unlike me, he just uses the girls for his release and he preferred older women, mostly college girls. As for me... I'm just misunderstood. "You guys have dates for the thanksgiving ball? It's a month from now."

"Come on Tae! You just want to boast your new girl. No need to rub it in our faces." Mino said. If there's one thing that this school's great at, it was party.

"Well... If you have a model girlfriend that as hot as mine then you'll be doing it too."

"There's this girl that I wanted to ask but I'm afraid she'll say no" Jisoo replied.

"How can you say that if you haven't asked her yet?" Rosé replied.

Oh my goddness! These two have a thing for each other for ages. They should just go out already. However, they can't since Rosé was brought up in a very strict environment and was still in the closet and Jisoo had just came out.

"I'm not going. I'd rather play games than bore myself to death" I replied.

"Oh come on Jen! You're just saying that since you don't have a date to drag with you" Mino said.

"Whatever... You know I can get anyone I wanted" I said.

"Oh yeah you can" Taehyung said in a challenging voice.

"You bet I can".

"Okay... Let's bet for five hundred bucks then" Taehyung challenges me.

"Shoot!" I confidently said. Five hundred dollars should just be a dime for us since all of our parents are rich.

"You've until thanksgiving and that's around more than a month to make the girl of our choosing date you" Kai replied and I felt that I just fell to their bait.

But I'm not one to back out from any bets. "Okay. Who's the unlucky girl?" Since I'm one of the most popular girls here, I bet its going to be easy to ask a girl out.

They tried to look around until Taehyung got Mino's and Kai's attention. Their eyes widened and their faces was full of evil grin. This was not good. Those looks were never good.

They have gotten Rosé and Jisoo's attention too and both of them giggled in return. I suddenly had a bad feelings about this but I'm not the one who backs out on bets.

"We have decided" They all said and I looked at the girl sitting underneath the big Oak tree.

There's only one person who sits there during lunch.

Oh shit!!!

Lisa's POV

"You really should eat a more healthy food" said the man who sat in front of me. I paused my current task to accommodate his unwanted presence. It was lunch time, its the only time that I reserved for myself. I placed the book that I was holding with my right hand down while I looked at the sugar bun in my left.

"Here" he said then handed me a sandwich.

"Thank you Jungkook but you really don't need to"
Jungkook was currently the vice president of our student council and my number one suitor. He had all the qualities a girl could ask for. He got looks that can pass as a model. A well built and firm body due to his athletic abilities, he was also my rival in the spot for being the school's valedictorian and last but not least, he was the only heir of their family's multi-million dollars company.

Most of the girls in our school, swoon over him. I said 'most' because he had an unusual rival... The one considered as the most delinquent student in our school and also a woman.

Almost everyone in this school have rich and influential parents. Since most students were rich and spoiled brats, they have offered academic scholarship to fullfil the student council role. Most of them were also too lazy to join sports, thus the athletic scholarship.

I was one of those people who was fortunate enough to enter this prestigious school via academic scholarship. I was born in middle class family and was doing well until all hell broke loose. Now, I sat here under a tree, eating a sugar bun to fill my empty stomach.

Jungkook had been trying to ask me out since freshman year but I always decline him. He was very likable person but my only goal was to graduate, go to college and help my family. I got no time for fun and love. I have too many responsibilities.

"Lisa... Why won't you go out with me?" He asked again. Too many times that I have already lost count.

"You are a very nice person Jungkook... But you know my priorities right now" Aside from being my vice president, he was also my one and only friend. He knew my status and some of my problems.

"You don't need to burden it alone you know. I can help you"
most of the time I'm tempted by his offer. Its the easiest way out. Date him, marry him, then let him help me and my family but my pride was too high. It's my family and it's my problems. I need to take care of them and prove to my no good father that we were strong.

"Its not a solution Jungkook and you know that. I don't want to run away. I needed to face my own problem. Besides, I don't think your parents are going to approve someone like me" The last thing that I wanted to be called was a gold digger.

He was about to argue more but, thankfully, I was saved by the bell.
