Loving A Triple Threat

"What's going on?" Joon asked the YG General Manager of Events, Mister Lee.

Mister Lee looked confused, "This is not our plan. You tell me what's going on?"

"Ah, oh, well that girl, Miss Gi Reyn she has an axe to grind, and she's grinding it right now," Joon said.

"I'll talk to the Blackpink GM, but I do want to watch this first. It's happening. It's not stopping," Mister Lee said seriously and turned to face the show.

There was no prerecorded music to overlay from the sound engineer, however, a guitar appeared from offstage, an aid ran out, plugged it in and then handed it to Rose.

She smiled, thanked him and tested the sound. Nods were received from all around.

Jennie counted, "Three, two, one," And they began to sing as Rose played while Miss Gi Reyn danced to her own song.

Jennie: And den we find out

Jennie: it began with an invitation

Jennie: you're invited, congratulation

Lisa: And den we find out

Lisa: No it's not a date

Lisa: By the way

Lisa: you need to be an eight

Rose: oh no boy

Rose: we not doin dat

ALL: Blackpink

Rose: Oh no boy

Rose: do not jess say dat

ALL: Blackpink

Jisoo: You found my weakness

Jisoo: The four girls of sweetness

ALL: Blackpink

Jisoo: Here is my picture

Jisoo: Please respect me

ALL: And den we find out

ALL: No respect

ALL: No respect

ALL: I'm not your piece of meat

ALL: Careful how you treat

ALL: Our Feelings

.

ALL: Blackpink (adlib)

Gi danced with her heart. Most of the crowd could not see, but she cried the entire time.

She knew the music, the beat of the words was simple. She had nothing planned.

Gi had come to see Blackpink, she liked them, she respected them. But now, her feelings for them could not be described. She would never forget this night. Her grandkids would hear of this night.

When Jennie sang the words "den we found out", she convulsed throwing her arms forward, acting out in an interpretive dance as if she had been hit hard in the stomach. She pushed her b.u.t.t back hard, sliding her feet backwards just as she flung her hands forwards.

She did this each time they sang, "and den we found out." The rest was free flow hip hop moves. She danced like a boy. Not seductively like girls were supposed to. Only the rap girls were permitted to dance this way. Another mould. Another stereotype of conformity.

They repeated the song three times, and when they sang the final, "Our feelings." She flopped to the floor, in a fairly standard ballet pose, legs underneath her arms outstretched in front of her, head down, hair everywhere.

She did the entire dance in a swimsuit, b.a.r.e feet and her tiny weeny little tight fitting jean shorts. It was a little hypocritical given the context of the song, but that wasn't the point.

Gi was fine with dancing seductively, or being in a beauty contest, as long as it was her choice. Because if it was not done tastefully, she would decline.

As she lay there, she heard the group add an extra line. It wasn't immediate. They added an extra "Blackpink." as an encore. It was their way of approving the message.

Mister Lee turned to Joon, "There see. That wasn't so bad, I knew the BP Manager would not allow a scandal."

"That wasn't bad?" Joon questioned Mister Lee's sanity. "Blackpink, The Blackpink, filmed for YouTube or Instagram or whatever you do with it. They just criticised the Seo family and me." He seethed at Mister Lee at how stupid he was not to see how the words were directly related to his actions.

"Did you not do these things?" Mister Lee asked.

"They are verballing what we did. Putting a spin on it, to make us look bad," Joon snarled."Look Mister Lee, no disrespect, but I want to talk to the CEO of YG."

Mister Lee was in his forties, a very experienced and respected operator, and normally this would be an insult of the highest magnitude. But because of his experience and his admirable inner balance, he was able to withstand a boy having a tantrum. A billionaire baby.

Mister Lee bowed respectfully, against cultural norms, and began to leave.

"Where are you going?" Joon called too loudly and disrespectfully.

Mister Lee turned back, "Mister Seo, you said for me to get our CEO as I may be inadequate for the task. It is not efficient unless I do so immediately. Please excuse me."

"Good," Joon said petulantly as Blackpink, and that rotten trollop skipped past. They completely ignored him.

Mister Lee, went to talk to the Blackpink General Manager. The CEO was in Seoul, and it was a Saturday night, young Mister Joon would just have to wait a few days. And the CEO could discuss matters with his Father, smoothing things over while explaining Joon's and Blackpink's factual actions.

It was all recorded. So there would be no argument.

The wise Mister Lee did not want to make an enemy of Mr Seo snr, but he would also ensure that in achieving this, it would not be at the expense of other YG interests. This was his only goal.

Mister Lee rule 32. He did not babysit.

Well, he did. But they were his artists and did what they were told.

Mister Lee rule 32 updated. He did not take on extra babysitting duties unrelated to YG Entertainment.

"Is that it?" Hyuk said. It sounded disrespectful of the magnificent performance of Blackpink and Gi.

Suzie slapped him. Hard.

"Ouch! I meant,' Hyuk rubbed his heart face, "They finished and left. No announcer come on or anything."

The technicians began playing MVs of YG Entertainments groups on the screen and through the speakers.

"Big Wang was unavailable," Misha giggled.

Suzie laughed and added. "And Joon didn't get an eight."

The girls cracked up.

Hyuk looked at Seok who shrugged. Girl humour.

They stayed in the VIP section for hours, listening and dancing to the MVs, singing along to their favourite songs.

When they had enough dancing, they lay back down on the blanket. Suzie and Hyuk were cuddling and fondling and doing things in general which Seok thought should not be done in public.

Seok, however, was ecstatic that Misha wasn't looking at other boys, plenty of handsome ones walked past and she didn't bat an eyelid. They had not reached any bases other than light touching, not like Hyuk and Suzie, but he was happy imagining she was his first real girlfriend.

Seok thought about Sena and how things would have been different if he were here, he didn't know how, but Sena probably would have saved Gi from her embarrassment.

And then he realised he got Misha without Sena's help! He felt like celebrating for four seconds until his cursed brain informed him; that he was only friends with Gi because of Sena and he never would have been able to join their group at the beginning of the day. Therefore, without Sena, no Misha.

"Damn Sena!" He muttered, and Misha giggled.

"Did he text you?" Misha asked, curious what set Seok off. And it was then the group chat pinged.

Jae-Sun Ruek: Sorry for lack of communication. Suzie. Misha. I checked on you a couple of times, and you looked ok.

Misha: why didn't you say hello.

No answer.

Jae-Sun Ruek: Can you meet us at designated meeting point three or should I come get you?

Misha: we have designated areas?

Jae-Sun Ruek: I'll come get you.

Jae-Sun stood to one side, letting the young a.d.u.l.ts, or kids, discuss what they would do next. There was a very small part of him which d.e.s.i.r.ed to join in, to be one of them, but it was only a small nag and easily resisted.

"What's that on your cheek?" Misha asked, inspecting Gi.

"Oh!" Gi exclaimed. "It's Lisa."

Hyuk and Seok were stunned and when they regained consciousness took a closer look at Gi's cheek. There was an imprint of a large lipstick kiss, dead centre.

"Oh no!" Seok exclaimed his concern.

"What?" Gi asked.

"You can never shower again, well not until you get one of those plastic covers," Seok said as if the kiss must be kept for perpetuity.

Misha and Suzie w.h.i.n.ed, "Oh why didn't ... invite us."

"Blackpink," Misha said sulkily, "Me wants."

"I'll tell you all about it later," Gi stated.

Hyuk was a little upset they didn't include him as well. Would they have left him behind to go see Blackpink backstage? He concluded, they would, in a heartbeat.

Jae-Sun kept his distance,

Until Gi skipped over.

"Jae-Sun, stop being a stickler," She grabbed him by the arm and pulled him towards the group. She struggled because he was so strong, so she kicked him in the shin. He relented and allowed himself to be dragged.

Suzie laughed. Misha then caught on and laughed at her.

"What?" Seok asked.

"Gi decided getting a man was too hard, so she perverted our guard," Suzie teased.

Misha laughed harder as Gi scowled.

"I didn't pervert him!" Gi protested.

"You can't…," Hyuk was about to say she couldn't get with the Guard and that Sena liked her before realising she could do as she pleased and he didn't want to rock the boat. He liked Suzie too much.

"I can't? What?" Gi asked in a warning tone.

"All sleep in the same tent," Hyuk said trying a save and stating his burning question.

Suzie swooned dramatically, "Oh so forward." She grabbed Hyuk. "I'm a nice girl you know."

Everyone laughed, even Jae-Sun Ruek cracked a smile.

"Don't laugh too loudly!" Suzie was upset that her joke had unforeseen repercussions.

"I have a suggestion," Jae-Sun said.

"No!" Seok said concerned that Jae-Sun's plan involved everyone going back to their own tents. The word slipped out because his emotions were taking over.

Gi looked at Jae-Sun who gave her the ever so slightest nod and then she said, "Let's hear him out before jumping to conclusions."

"I have observed you all, my apologies," he said, and he was so adorable in Gi's mind, "You are in different sections which can be circ.u.mvented, but we cannot overload any one section with additional guests."

Everyone nodded, they were following security event management speak, so far. Jai-Sun had the ability to make, going on a picnic, sound like an op.

"Seok will swap with Suzie," He summarised.

"Why do I have to go to D!" Suzie protested much to Hyuk's distress.

"Couldn't you have just said, "Seok can swap with Suzie?" Misha asked, it wasn't necessary to redress, but she couldn't help herself.

"I apologise Miss Kim, but that's the only way it will work unless you stick to your initial assignments."

Gi thought about it, it meant that Seok would be with her and Misha. And she laughed. Jae-Sun had calculated, in his police manner, that where Seok was harmless, and Misha responsible, Suzie would probably have s.e.x with Hyuk.
