    " Oh my god Ash, get the fuck up this is the 5th time this morning you've tripped over."

     I'm sorry this bitch said what?

    Emily stood up, "H--Hey! You shouldn't talk to them like that! Th.. They literally just crashed in here! You're just-- You're just gonna tell them to get up like it's nothing?" The stranger rolled their eyes, they had long black hair tied up in a tight pony tail, their skin was a light smokey tone, and their eyes were a deep red. The stranger continued "Please, They're in my way. (nothing new really) But now you are too." The stranger crossed their arms before snickering. "Pfft, you almost stutter as much as Ash." I got out of my seat to help 'Ash' up, but they were knocked out cold. A lot of the Cafe employees started freaking out over it too, but some were relieved to learn that they were knocked out. No one wants to go to court over their own clumsiness, it's stupid how they can even do that. Thankfully Ash wasn't in a location that bothered people too much, Emily quickly made her way over as well with my phone to hand it to me as we called for some help. The stranger only scoffed and walked out of the Cafe mumbling about something.

    "So... You said their head smacked... Against a counter, their back crashed into a bulletin board, and fell face first into the ground... Is.. Is that right?" The doctor started explaining back to us. "Yeah.. Uh, I'm sure someone at the Cafe recorded it by now. Hang on.." I pulled out my phone to looked it up, sure enough I found it and showed it to the doctor as they looked at the phone bizarrely. "I.. Is it bad?" Emily spoke up next to me as the doctor shook their head. "Uh, no ma'am. Ash didn't break anything, let alone is barely injured! They don't even have a concussion! I mean well talk about strong fucking bones. They're just a little bruised up, and that's it. Do they have any immediate family that you know of?" Emily shook her head as I replied "No, there was that b-- Ahem I mean.. Questionably rude person, but we don't know." The doctor nodded "Well, we can't keep them here.. Can we do a quick background check on you..?" I nodded at the Doc's question "Yeah I don't mind."

    . . . So we ended up taking Ash with us, Emily offered staying around, talking about how she had experience with medical studies when she was caught up with the mafia. I just let her stay around anyways, Emily was holding Ash in a bridal style as I unlocked the door to my apartment. "Uhh.. Pardon the mess,  I don't really get company. haha. Uh, you can set Ash on the couch over there. and uhm, I dunno, watch some TV? What do you like?" I explained tossing her the remote as she clumsily caught it. "I like a few.. Riverdale.. Twilight.." she started listing off as I nodded. "Cool, you can put that on if you want." I explained as I took off my shoes and head into the mini kitchen. My apartment was small, but hey it's affordable and good, it has 4 rooms: Living room, Kitchen, Bathroom, and Bedroom. the laundry room was at the first floor, it's probably cleared up by now. "Hey Emily! Do you want anything to eat?" I shouted over as she peered over from the couch "O-Oh! Uhmmmm..." She started thinking "Do you have PB&J Sandwiches..?" She semi-shouted back as I nodded "Yeah!" I grabbed some pre-packaged, crackers, and apple juice before heading back to the couch. "I got some crackers n' apple juice for Ash." I explained handing some food to Emily and sitting on the floor in front of the couch.

    "Ugh. . . Is.. Is that Twilight playing in background..? Am I in h-hell..?" A new voice groggily started. I almost choked on my sandwich-- "Uhm.. No?" Emily answered as I turned around to Ash. "You're in my apartment right now, you were knocked out in the Cafe. So we had to take you to the hospital." I explained calmly.

     "W-WAIT WHAT??" Ash exclaimed in worry. Ash was short like Emily, but they had short light brown curly hair and grey eyes, their skin was pale as well. "Yeahhh.. Uh, Cracker? Apple Juice? You want them? Also it's Ash, right?" I handed them some food as they nodded. "U-Uhm.. Y-Yeah, I'm.. I'm Ash." Ash introduced. I nodded "Cool, I'm Y/N, they/them. And this is Emily, she/her." Emily waved at Ash as they spoke up again, "O-Oh! I g-go by T-They/Them t-t-too.." I nodded at their statement, "You should eat something Ash, and... I hope you don't mind me asking, but you don't like Twilight?" I asked them as they nodded "N-No. I don't.. Uhm.. I.. I do like a-anime however!" Ash explained as they started to eat some crackers. Emily looked at them puzzled, "Err.. What's anime? If you don't mind me asking of course." Ash stared at Emily for a second as I quietly handed the remote to them. They took the remote and exited out of Twilight, only to open into an anime called "K-On." Emily looked at the screen before looking back at Ash, only to look at the screen and shift over to watch it.

    "So, Ash, I need to ask. Do you have anywhere you're staying?" I asked Ash as they timidly nodded. "Y-Yeah.. It's with my s-sister.. S-she was with m-me at the C-Cafe earlier, I-I'm not too s-surprised th-that she's not h-here right now.." Oh my god you don't mean.. "Are-- Are you referring to the rude lady with the ponytail!?" Emily exclaimed as Ash nodded timidly, sighing. "Y-Yeah.. She's my s-sister.." Emily's jaw dropped "No way! That's horrible!" She exclaimed as I was in thought.. "Hey, How old are you exactly Ash?"

    "Oh I-I'm 18.. why?" Ash answered tilting their head at me. "Okay so my first option was adopt you.. But since you're 18, you can just stay here for a bit if you want?" I started suggesting to them. "I mean-- I don't have a lot of room here.. So I can let them take my room for a bit, but it's also a lil' messy... But I can just leave them on a couch, nor can I just let them go to that rude lady aga--" I stopped my train of thought realizing I was talking aloud. "Oh sorry! I uh-- Got carried away." I explained as Ash laughed a bit, "I-It's fine.. Uhm.. I-I really wouldn't want to trouble y-you.." Emily butted in, "Then you can stay with me! I have enough room for you Ash!" Ash looked Emily "It's fine rea--"

"No! No butts! Your sister is horrible to you from what I've seen!" 

"Emily, to be fair we don't know her well, she may not be like that all of the time."

"But look at Ash Y/N! They're small! And uh-- They're small!"

"Emily. That's not a good reason.. You're saying that like they're an animal."

"I-- No-- It's just-- That lady's terrifying! Do you really want Ash to go back to her?" 

". . ."

Emily brought up a good point, while we don't know if she was always a rude person. There was nothing saying that she was nice.. ".. Fine. Okay. Just, Ash-- Let your sister know you're staying at someone's place for a bit.. Emily I'm giving you my number." I stated grabbing my phone from my pocket as Emily got hers to exchange numbers. Then Ash gave us their number as well.

    I'll admit. The day I met those 2 I thought that was that, cut and dry. Emily would always text me daily about pretty much everything, the 3 of us would hang out ever so often. Then low and behold a a year later me, Ash, and Emily moved into a larger apartment. And everything felt normal still until. . .

More people moved in some how.

((sneak peek for the next Chapter::))

"...Trust me, that's not her fucking name."
