Yay-yays! Upload! One day late much? But I wanted to upload something, so sorry it's a bit short. My sis was kinda harsh to me the other day.
"No one reads your story anyway,"
"Huynh's a stupid name,"
I think she was pissed at me. Well right then, I wanted to give up. I know barely anyone reads this but hey! Think I care?? No. This is for my own enjoyment.
For anyone who comes across this... Enjoy!

We sat in a circle of staring. Choi looking at me in some creepy way, Ken staring at me expecting a reaction, Nico glancing at Ken, waiting for something, me glaring at Ken for whatever he did, and Griffin and Ace staring back and forth between everyone else.
I waited for someone to say something first. I was tempted to snap at Ken, asking him what he did but that would have to wait.
No one said a word.
I jumped in my chair at the sound of a door opening, breaking the silence. Bailey’s head appeared from the other side of the door. Surprise took over his face.
“Oh… Ms. Choi, I thought you had left?” he asked slowly, still obviously confused. Choi smiled apologetically.
“I’m sorry, I have to stay over because of some car problem. They said it was alright…?” she trailed off, gesturing to us in question. Bailey nodded curtly, agreeing to Choi’s stay. Damn, I was hoping that he’d make her leave.
“So where exactly is she staying?” Griffin asked us when Choi was out of earshot.
Bailey raised his eyebrows. “Didn’t you work something out?”
“You guys said she could stay in the non-existent guest room,” I mumbled crossly. Everyone shot Ken a glare. He returned with a small smile.
“Well, you know, this could get pretty big… so I thought it’d be fine if she stayed for a day,” he said slowly. I rolled my eyes.
“It’d get big alright,” Ace groaned, smacking his forehead and slouching down. “In a bad way.”
Ken raised his hands up in defense. “I get it okay?!” he protested. “We could just get her a hotel room or something,” Ken offered.
Nico shrugged, “That works, it’s not like we don’t have any money for it.” He agreed. Bailey looked pretty flustered, but he probably didn’t have any other ideas.
I could just imagine how awkward it’d be. Knowing how Choi was, she’d probably feel like a bother. Squeezing my eyes shut, I let out a sigh. “She can stay here, in my room I guess.” I found myself saying. Ken eyes widened in shock and Ace waggled his eyebrows. “And I’ll sleep on the couch right here.” I added quickly.
“Well, that's fine,” Bailey said looking slightly less uncomfortable.

Choi sat stiffly on my bed facing me. “So… I’m going to sleep in here,” she stated slowly. “And you’ll be on the couch out there,” I shrugged.
“Better than you sleeping on the couch, it’s freaking uncomfortable,”
“And you’re okay with that?”
“Yup, done it a few times already.” I shrugged again. She still looked uncertain but having no other choice at the moment, dealt with it. “Just don’t touch my stuff,” I added. She nodded quickly. Ken poked his head in from the door. Though it was clear he had nothing to do with the car breaking down, he still seemed to feel pretty guilty.
“Hey, you alright Arina?” he asked Choi. She gave a small smile in response. “If you need anything, I think Tye could get you it,” he mentioned, shooting me a look.
“Thank you,” she muttered quietly.
“Don’t mention it.” Ken said while flashing his trademark smile. He lingered awkwardly a while longer. Just as he began to close the door Ace walked by.
“Don’t do anything ‘weird’ to Arina when we aren’t looking,” Ace called out, making air quotes with his fingers. He began laughing at his oh-so-funny joke. Choi looked damn-straight confused. Sucking in my anger, I decided to ignore what he said after Ken shot me another damned look.
I stood up to leave after Ken. “Do you need anything?” I asked her at the doorway- remembering Bailey’s lecture on courtesy. Choi shook her head. I was tempted to say something else. I don’t know why, and I don’t even know what- I just wanted to say something before I went to crash on the couch. But what could I say? Nothing.
“Don’t mess with my stuff,” was all I could think of. I wanted to slap my face. Genius, perfect thing to say. Not like it was that important.
Choi shook her head. “I won’t.”

These are the lyrics to Number 1 by Big Bang. Don't have to read them. Just wanted to add them at some point and this is a short chappie so... They kind of, slightly,barely, but still suit this story. At some points. Didn't feel like adding a video with the song or anything... the lyrics are the important part anyway :)
Vote, comment, fan if you want? :D
