Ali laughed
'That's so much more than a coincidence.'
Xiao seemed to be nervous, obviously being around girls wasn't something he was very good at. He kept playing with his hair. Ali sat on the bed and smiled at him.
'You know, you look so cute when you do that.'
She ruffled her own hair, messing it up over her eyes, then she laughed.
'Sorry. I'm acting like a complete freak right now. I think it's because i'm tired, I'm always weird when i'm tired.'
Ali stood up quickly and walked towards Xiao.
'I think i'll go find something to eat, come with me?'
It was a light question. He could decline if he wanted and she wouldn't be too bothered if he said no. Or would she? She'd only been in his company a matter of hours, maybe less, but she wanted to tell him everything about her. As she walked past Xiao, Ali let her fingertips brush gently across his shoulder before she walked out the door.
Why did I just do that?
She felt heat in her cheeks as she blushed. What was she doing?

She nodded and took to where he'd gestured stretching herself out on the sofa with a sigh.
This wasnt so bad she supposed now her eyes were closed and allowed to rest. The place appeared nice and the smell warmed her, warmed her like her own home now failed to.
She could hear Ali upstairs talking with a lower tone, another guy...a house full of guys...shouldnt that be ringing the old alarm bells. You're too tired for it to ring bells!

He said I was cute too...No Ali! Behave!
As she was mentaly telling herself off she failed to noticed Xiao had stopped and walked straight into the back of him.
'Ouch.'
Rubbing her nose with one hand Ali grinned sheepishly.
'Sorry, my mind was urm, wandering.'
Lorraine was already in the kitchen with a plate full of sandwitches amd another guy. There were guys all over the place, an entire housefull infact. Ali calmed down and sat on one of the chairs.
'So what do you have to eat here?'

"I guess I'll just have to watch what I say around you. Who know what you'll take out of context, right Ray?" It was the first time he had openly used her name, and it exited his mouth so easily that it felt completely natural and...right. Flushing a bit at the thought, he shook himself from that fantasy and made his way into the living room, announcing that dinner was being served.

"I guess I'll just have to watch what I say around you. Who know what you'll take out of context, right Ray?"
She blushed just a tad, but the pinkness of her cheeks hadn't seemed to fade the entire time anyways, so she ignored the burn on her cheeks. She then followed him, lifting up the bread with a smile and nodding towards the kitchen. "If you're hungry, we've got some sandwich stuff." she explained, mostly to Tahlia, though she wasn't sure if the girl would be paying attention due to her exhaustion.

She get something to eat in a minute...she thought softly sinking further into the sofa with a half smile.

"I'll show you were the two of you can sleep for the night. Unless you'd prefer the couch of course." With that, Sam turned towards the hallway and went into the bedroom he called his own, carefully setting Tahlia's small body against the mattress, pulling a blanket to her neck to ensure she didn't get too chilled in the night. Crossing his arms over his chest, he peeked about the small room and realized just how plain it was. A bed, a dresser, and a night stand. That was all. Making a face, Sam rubbed at his biceps some before shrugging,"It's not much, but it works."

"It looks a little bit crowed in here...Let's make some sandwiches and, maybe, I can show you my room."
Okay, now the blush was quite visible, even with his hair over his face.

Ali turned to face Xiao and stood up. The more time she got to spen with this very interesting person the better.
"It looks a little bit crowed in here...Let's make some sandwiches and, maybe, I can show you my room."
Xiao lowered his head to hide behind his hair and Ali realized he was blushing.
'No need for sandwiches, you can show me your room now.'
She made sure Xiao saw her when she winked at him and walked right back out the room.

Xiao was quite shocked when she winked, but he ended up following her back to their rooms. He walked past her, brushing their arms together lightly, and opened his door. "Sorry it's a mess." He looked over his small room, his bed's covers were disheveled as there was a pile of clothes in the corner. "I literally just woke up earlier." He chuckled nervously as he walked in, making a gesture for Ali to follow. When Xiao strolled in, he looked over to the body mirror to the left. Oh crap.

'Your bed's so comfy.'
She snuggled down into the unmade sheets and turned her head to face him.
'You have a full body mirror too! I've wanted one for ages...'
Ali stopped. There wasn't a reflection in the mirror.
Dont be stupid she told herself It's just the angle you're on
She shook her head.
'Hey, come here.'

Xiao chuckled nervously as he watched her jump on his bed. " I guess it is..." His body froze when he found her staring at the mirror. Deep down he was scared out of his wits while his face stayed the same. He relaxed as she seemed to correct herself. Does she know? He jumped slightly when her voice called out to him. "Uh...s-sure..." He walked over to his bed, sitting right next to her.

Sitting up she felt her head and then realised her ankle was still panging and her stomach was threatening to growl but that was of her least worries. Where on earth was this?!
A plain room...it smelt masculine. She panicked. Had something happened. Had they been attacked. Had cannibals punctured their tyres, taken them hostage, drugged them and then, eateneveryoneacceptforher!!! she took a deep breath. No lets not let the horror films get the better of her. Cannibals usually lived in little run down shacks with heads and limbs lying about and she was pretty sure they didnt wear deodrant.
Still something weird was going on...
