Long List (A Sequel to Shameless Parents) | Wenrene

"Gugudan's Sejeong, Twice's Mina, Mamamoo's Solar, Blackpink's Rosè, Jennie.. wait.. Jennie?" Irene raised an eyebrow and looked at her girlfriend in disbelief. "Seriously? Rose and now Jennie? That's half of Blackpink you're hitting on!"

"They're only four in the group, Hyun." Wendy said trying to convey a point since Irene's stressing 'half' as if there were a lot of members in Blackpink but when she saw her girlfriend's glare became even more piercing, she regretted her attempt right away. What is she even trying to do? There's no way she could win with a jealous Bae Joohyun. She should be defending herself and deny all allegations and not adding more fuel to her anger. "I mean..H-hyun.. you know that list is made-up, right? And excuse me, but I never hit on anyone but you." She stammered first but regained firmness in her confession. 

Irene successfully hid her squealing self over Wendy's words as she remain poker faced. "Are you saying my source is unreliable?"

"Your source?" Wendy then eyed Yeri on the side, that face alone screams unreliable. Her killer eyes for Yeri were immediately interrupted when Irene slammed her hands on the table.

"Eyes on me." She demanded and Wendy obliged, her eyes soften. That's how the topic about Irene's source ended.

"Wow, I expected there will be a lot of people linked to you but I didn't know there's this much." Irene said as she examined the list once more.

"W-what? There's more?!" 

"Chungha."

"Oh come one, that was 4 years ago!" 

"So you remember?!!"

Oops.. Wendy realized she reacted wrongly... again. 

"W-well.. she guested on our radio program before.." She explained carefully with a submissive soft voice. 

"And you shamelessly flirted with her like you two were the only ones present! Unbelievable."

Wendy gulped. Why on earth is she in this kind of situation? She felt so betrayed by her other members for pulling a prank on her like this. They brought up that 'second lead' thing out of nowhere, they're too much into drama these days and they're a living proof that too much is really not good for anyone's well being. And out of all people in their dorm, Irene asked Yeri to give her a list of people that's linked to her. Yeri's not only into drama but into fanfics as well! Wendy's not even sure if Yeri's able to distinguish what's real and what's not anymore. 

“YAH! KIM YERIM! SEW YOUR OWN PLUSHIE!!!” Wendy finally loses it and screamed at the top of her lungs.

Wendy was about to dash out and ran after Yeri but she was stopped by a very calm yet still intimidating voice of Irene. She knew she cannot escape and she's completely doomed now when Irene's like this, it means serious business that needed to be attended quickly or she'll undergo cold treatment from her again. Whenever they fight, whether it's jealousy or just small understanding, Wendy always suffer a day of no kiss, touch or even conversational talk with her, heck they even go back to their own bedrooms to sleep alone and lonely in the night. Thankfully, they both can't withstand being away from each other, mostly Irene to Wendy, so they always end their fight after a day. They promised each other that they will no longer repeat that cold war they had in their past which lasted months. But still, a day of without Irene by her side will always be painful to her no matter what. She had experienced this before and she never wanted it to happen again. 

"Sit down Son Seungwan, we're not finished yet." 

Wendy's eyes sparkled when the thought of continuing their moment came to mind in response to Irene's demand but she knew it was too good to be true when she heard her call out for the other three members. 

"Kang Seulgi, Park Sooyoung, Kim Yerim, come over here." 

The three abided and sat down in front of Irene. Their faces were painted with different emotions but no remorse was detected. Seulgi was pretending she didn't know what she did wrong, Joy's head was lying low but her smirk shows a sign she's actually enjoying the situation, Yeri on the other hand was outright smiling.

Outsiders may ask why they are like this. Seulgi, Joy and Yeri's knew Wendy and Irene like the back of their hand, they could read them even if their words and actions are contradicting at times so they know if their teasing and jokes went overboard or not. In truthfulness, but they won't admit because it's too cheesy, they love and support Irene and Wendy's relationship since the very beginning and they oath that they will just let them be and do their own thing for their love to bloom more and grow stronger. 

However, just a week later, they all can't stand it anymore when the two started to get so disgusting in front of them. Their sweet and sour moments were defeating all the pairs in the history of Korean dramas. The group could take their hand holding, occasional glances, hugs and kisses in the early stage of their relationship but they all learned the hard and disgusting way that 'occasional' was actually an alien word to Wendy and Irene as their relationship progressed, they've bet that 'low-key' was never a word to them either. So they've decided that in order to save their career, the three started teasing the two to prevent their libido surfacing in public. Who knows what they can do? People who are in love are at their stupidest state, they're always in cloud 9, so they just can't trust them to be themselves alone at all. Wendy and Irene are their members as well as their parents after all, and they won't allow any embarrassment to their group slash family all because they've been exposed doing something sexual disgusting in the eyes of the public. Of course if ever they want to out themselves and their relationship, then they'll support 100%, but never in this kind of way. So even if they needed to tease them every time for them to get back to their senses then so be it. Before it was a hassle, but now it became a habit that even though they're in a private place like dorm, the three just can't stop ruining Wendy and Irene's moments. 

"Yeri, it's not proper that you just bring up people's names and linking them to Seungwan." Irene said which made everyone shocked. They thought they're going to hear some further interrogation regarding this matter but surprisingly she did not. 

"Unnie. We're just kidding, we just love teasing both of you so stop scolding Yeri." Joy explained.

"But your jokes aren't funny anymore. Your other jokes, I can tolerate, but not when it comes to linking Seungwan with everyone else. In case you have forgotten, I'm her girlfriend." Irene was still firm with her tone and her facial expression to look believable because this time, she's not going to let this pass. "What if your jokes will be the cause of our breakup?"

"B-break up?! What are you talking about, Joohyun unnie?" Wendy swiftly responded to that 'what if' question from Irene which just made the latter roll her eyes at the reaction. 

"I just said 'what if', right? I'm just giving out an example what could happen if they ever cross the line with their jokes." Irene defended.

"But that's not gonna happen, right?" Wendy looked at her with teary eyes and it's so difficult right now to mask a strong countenance in front of these kids when her girlfriend's like this. Irene has to stay firm in order to discipline these three, she must withstand a soft Wendy for now. So she ignored her painfully and focused on the three who are smiling like fools already. This is what she's saying... they never take them seriously.

"I'm not kidding." Irene said to the girls while Wendy gasped.

"Unnie. You're over reacting! If there's one person in this room right now that doesn't want the two of you to break up more than us, then it's you. So what you're saying is impossible." Yeri finally backlashed and then the other two fought back their smile from becoming wider.

That made Irene taken aback. It's true though, there's no way she's going to let go of Wendy no matter what but she won't admit that especially in front of these three. A real tsundere indeed. Meanwhile, Wendy was already blushing furiously. 

"Yeri, I'm the unnie here. Show me some respect." 

That made everyone freeze on their chair. Of course, nobody can argue on that and there's no way they could win with Irene if she raise her 'UNNIE' card. Only fools who doesn't value their lives would go against that unnie card in this group.

"I'm sorry, Irene unnie." Yeri lowered her head apologetically and so did Joy and Seulgi. 

Wendy looked at the three with pity and wanted to help them out but at this point Irene holds the authority over all of them.

"But Joohyun unnie, we just wanted to help you out so you know who to look out for when we're back at doing live stages again. You know, Wendy's really irresistible to both guys and gals so..." Seulgi wanted to salvage their teasing team but it got immediately dismissed by Irene in which Wendy was so thankful for. Why that heck is her 'chingu for life' doing anyways? Stabbing her back front? She can't believe it!

"Like I've said before, Seulgi, Joy and Yeri. Stop with this nonsense of bringing up names because it's not helping anyone of us. I trust Wendy, I will only believe what I see and feel and at this point my girlfriend's all loyal to me." She then looked at Wendy to her side all so lovingly. "Right?"

"Of course! There's no one else but you today, tomorrow and in the future!" Wendy said smoothly with a wink earning a blush from the older, while the other 3 just want to get out from this situation that they started.

"Okay! Okay! We're so sorry, Irene unnie. We're not going to tease you anymore with the second lead in your real life drama" Yeri apologizes again urgently wanting to get away. The other two desperately do the same thing.

"At least you all know your limits,  okay? Now, go back to your rooms and behave." 

The other 3 dispersed immediately but not before Yeri was asked out to do something for Irene. 

"What unnie?" Yeri looked at her unnie like she's seeing a crazy person. Her words really are so contradicting with her actions.

"I said... give me the list of people you know that could be Wendy's potential second lead."

Irene is really crazy but Wendy's crazier for her.

"So.. aren't you going to deny all these?" Irene spoke when she sees Wendy lost in her own world.

"I'm denying all of that from the start. You said you trusted me and yet..." She pouted. Sometimes, Irene could be tiring but she knows she just wanted attention and has no intention to damage their relationship at all. Thank goodness, Wendy's such a kind hearted and understanding person.

"Seungwan. I'm not reading this list because I have trust issues on you, I'm just doing this to see who these fans ship you with... so I could step up my game if I have really have to." 

"W-what do you mean?"

Irene sighed and further explained. "I want your fans to see me as the more fitting for you and no one else. I'm not insecure or jealous, that I'm sure because I have everything that your other women don't." 

After all, it's Irene's competitiveness kicking in, and Wendy couldn't understand why she would feel threatened. She won't ask that though, Irene would never admit she's threatened by other girls.

"O-other women?! There's no such thing! Are you sure you're not jealous?" Wendy teased.

"Why would I be? I'm the greatest woman of this generation." She said confidently with a smug look on her face which made Wendy scoffed. She liked it though, Irene with oozing confidence never fail to make her fall for her all over again.

"Yah! Don't judge me!" 

"I don't! I love your confidence.. it's sexy." Wendy scratched the back of her head, shy. Irene smirked.

"Pervert."

"What?! I'm not!"

"What I'm trying to say is.. I have everything... because I have you." Irene smiled at Wendy. It was a true confession that she rarely does. Having Wendy as her partner will forever be her greatest and loved treasure.

"Aw. I'm always accused greasy but you're way beyond my level, Hyun." Wendy was grinning like a fool at Irene's remarks. "I love you, Hyun. Seriously, you don't need to outdo anyone for me. You're perfect as you are, and I fell in love with you like that. Don't mind other people's preferences for me, I have my own mind and heart.. and they all say they choose you." She winked.

"Aish. You're always the winner on this." Irene then get up on her seat and transferred on Wendy's lap. She pecked her lips right away which left both of them in cloud 9. Butterflies in their stomach, there's no way they would fall out of love for each other in this lifetime. They wrapped each other in a warm embrace.

"I love you, Hyun." 

"I love you too. But..."

"But?"

"Taeyeon sunbaenim?!" 

"Huh?!" 

"Seriously?! I thought what you have is only sunbae-hoobae image to the fans?!"

"Y-you're still reading that list?!" Just when Wendy thought everything's over... she sighed... Irene's words really are contradicting to her actions at times. 

"And what's this? There are guys too?!" Irene fumed as she saw the names at the bottom part of the list.

"Aish! Kim Yerim's really out of her mind!!"

Achoo!

"You okay?" Seulgi asked Yeri who just sneezed while they were playing games in Seulgi's room.

"Will you close your mouth when sneezing? It's really not safe even at home. My gosh! This is so unhygienic." Joy scolded while she sprayed the room with air freshener. 

"Why do I feel like my life's being threatened? Should I transfer to another dorm?" Yeri said.

"KIM YERIM!!!"

They heard her name called out by Wendy and Irene.

"I think you should." Seulgi replied with fear of getting involved.

"Don't worry! We'll help you pack!" Joy added.

"You traitors!" Yeri concluded.
