"Stop being angry. I told you she was the one flirting with me. I didn't do anything," Yanjun told Scarlett as they laid in bed. Scarlett was silent as she watched Pitch Perfect beside him. She hadn't said anything since the two of them got home from the convenience store. "I swear I didn't even say anything, but 'hi. how's your day' and she just started flirting with me. I-"

"I'm not mad," Scarlett finally said, eyes glued on the laptop. Yanjun tried to reach his hand to grab hers, but she moved it and pulled the covers over her body.

"You are! You just moved your hand away from me," he pointed out, running the hand through his black locks.

"I'm cold."

"You're mad." Scarlett's jaw worked and she threw the blankets off of her body and rounded the bed before going to the bedroom door. "Where are you going?"

Scarlett was dressed in nothing but Yanjun's soft purple button up shirt and a pair of black spandex shorts with some black crew socks. Her hair was in a high ponytail that had some of her baby hairs sticking out and she had no makeup on.

"Away from you," she replied opening the door and leaving to their bedroom. Yanjun followed behind, only wearing a pair of sweats and some black socks. The two of them were supposed to spend the day locked up in their shared bedroom, but someone was obviously unhappy.

"Baby, I told you it was her, not me," Yanjun groaned following her down the stairs.

"Don't 'baby' me, Yanjun," Scarlett stopped at the bottom of the stairs and turned to him. "I asked you to buy my hot Cheetos and you forget them. I only asked for one thing and you just forget them like that?! Probably because you were distracted by the female worker. I don't go into the store once and you forget it so easily."

"Are...Are you serious," Yanjun's mouth hung open for a long second before he narrowed his eyes at her as he held the railing of the stairs. "You haven't talked to me for two hours and a half because I forgot your chips?"

"They're not just chips! You really think I would be mad over any chips?! Hot Cheetos are my life line and you just so happened to forget my third favorite thing in the world," Scarlett pointed a finger at him.

Their housemates ignored their small fight as they all hung out in the living room. Yanjun and Scarlett naturally got into arguments, usually over dumb things and would quickly make up afterwards. It was kind of their thing.

"Fine. Let's go to the store and get them," Yanjun said, but Scarlett shook her head and left to go to the kitchen. "You're being stubborn."

"You're being annoying," she claimed as he followed her to the kitchen where she immediately searched the cupboards for snacks.

"Crimson, would you stop?"

"Yanjun, would you stop?"

"Oh my god," he groaned, pinching the bridge of his nose as she snatched a bag of spicy Lay's chips from its place. She also grabbed some cookies from the cupboard over then a bottle of water from the fridge. "Did your period change? I've been tracking it, but-"

"You're really asking me about my period right now," Scarlett turned to him, angrier then before. "Are you fucking serious?"

"I just-"

"No, I'm not on my period," Scarlett grumbled, walking past him and out the kitchen doors. He let out a groan as he turned and followed after her.

"Shouldn't have brought up the period," Zhangjing sung as he passed the living room and Scarlett was already at the top of the stairs.

"I know. I know."

"You done messed up," Chengcheng spoke and Yanjun ignored him as he went up the stairs and to their room. Lucky for him, Scarlett hadn't locked him out just yet.

When Yanjun got into the room, Scarlett was laying in bed eating chips and watching her movie. Her eyes didn't even look up at him when he entered. Yanjun released a long sigh as he closed the door and got into the bed with her.

"Crimson, would you please stop being mad at me? Please," Yanjun looked over to her. His back resting on the headboard and his head leaning against it as he watched her. Her brown eyes flickered up to him and she popped a chip into her mouth before looking back at the laptop."I'll take you to the store, just stop being mad at me."

"I don't want to."

"Then-"

"If you want to take me to the store to get the chips I'll end up flirting with that girl. Do you really want that," she asked, dangerously looking up at him. "You can go back to being a side chick."

"Crimson," Yanjun warned.

"Please be quiet."

"Let me hold your hand."

Scarlett looked over to him and saw him pouting. "I'm eating."

"Eat with your other hand," he said placing his hand right beside her. He wasn't looking at her, his focus was on the roof.

"Baby," Scarlett muttered and put her hand in his.
