Today's chapter takes place around a week after the last chapter, to try and keep in line with the IRL timeline of the discord chef video to Yumi moving in. Also!! Would you guys be interested in a short filler chapter giving Isaac's POV for the first 3 chapters? Thank you to @ayoitsforest for helping me figure out the events of this chapter, and for helping me layout the following chapters, I'm so grateful

The house was alive with noise, despite it being early in the morning. Most days, everyone would still be asleep, but today was special; Yumi moved in last night. Everyone is buzzing with energy, excited by the newest addition to the house.

"Ash, you're sure you're okay sharing the room with me?" Yumi asks, looking up at me from the doorway, where he's carrying another box.

I nod from across the room, smiling at him from my spot on the floor, setting aside the wires I've been trying to untangle for the past fifteen minutes. Yumi, along with Nick, was really good at pinpointing the moments my emotions were too large to handle. When I'd started to get overwhelmed by the change in my environment, Yumi had set a box of his PC wires in front of me and asked if I could untangle them, remembering how the repeated motions would help to stamp down the static-like panic caused by the sudden changes.

"Yeah, I'm sure. I'm used to sharing rooms, I shared with Nick when we were kids, then with Isaac once we moved in." I respond, watching him set the box down next to his our bed.

He hums in response, stretching his body with a loud sigh.
"Okay, cool. I'm gonna finish unpacking later. I'm tired" He whines, fake-stumbling towards me and proceeding to throw himself on top of me. The action sends me careening backwards, my spine hitting the carpeted floor and knocking the air from my lungs. Yumi's much larger body is draped over top of mine, one hand braced on either side of my head, leaving him hovering above me. My back is pressed against the floor as I try to catch my breath.

Yumi's face cracks into a smile as I look up at his face, the corners of his eyes crinkling. He laughs, burying his face into my neck to stifle the sound.

A shriek breaks through the stillness of the room.

☆。*。☆。

Isaac's POV:

When a thud echoes through the second floor of the house, neither Nick or I move.

In a house with six people, 5 of them being guys, loud noises were a normal occurrence.

"Ash, Yumi? You guys good?" I hear Larry call out, his voice getting nearer.

That gets our attention. Yumi got here last night, and he and Ash had spent the day unpacking his boxes into their room.

Their room. Just the thought causes that slimy feeling to accumulate in my throat. Ash should be sleeping in our room, in our bed. Not sleeping with Yumi.

As if it wasn't enough that she'd been sleeping there for the past week, Ash had agreed to share Yumi, instead of moving back in with me.

Suddenly, Larry lets out a shriek, "Oh my god???"

The shock in his tone sends both Nick and I shooting to our feet, hurrying through the door and across the short walkway to Yumi's room.

Larry is stood in the doorway, staring with wide eyes into the room. As I come closer, standing behind him and leaning in the door to peer inside, the state of Ash and Yumi is like a downpour of ice, freezing me in place as I stare.

Ash is lying on the floor, on her back, face flushed and cheeks red. Her chest is heaving as she tries to catch her breath. She looks incredible. However, her body is bracketed by Yumi's, the two of them pressed close to each other. Yumi's arms hold him up above her, and he's breathing heavily. His face is pressed into her neck, In the same spot that I had pressed soft kisses a week ago.
A lump settles in my throat at the thought and I send a glare at Yumi's back.

"What the actual fuck." Nick speaks for the both of us there.

I glower in silence as Yumi scrambles off of Ash, watching as Ash sits up and stares, wide-eyed and flushed, directly at me.

The lump in my throat seems to double in size.

I can feel Yumi staring at me, an odd expression on his face. I meet his gaze with a glare.

Reasonably, I know that I can't be upset. Ash isn't mine. She never could be. But that doesn't stop the fire in my chest from burning. I glare at the two of them again before stalking off.

Ash's POV:

The sudden appearance of half the house is startling.

"What the fuck." I hear my twin say.

Yumi's breath hitches against my neck, and he quickly climbs off of me, face red and appearing guilty. I spare a glance at Isaac, and catch him glaring at Yumi before storming off.

Yumi has an odd look on his face for a moment, before the nervous expression is back

"Nick- look, it's not what it looks like." He says, glancing at me before meeting my brother's stare.
I was confused. What did it look like we were doing? We were just messing around. Why was Isaac so upset?

Nick groans, pressing his hands to his eyes and throwing his head back, "Why my sister?" He mutters, looking at us once more before walking off with a sigh, presumably to find Isaac.

Larry looks smug, like he's just won the lottery.

"I've gotta go tell Tanner!" He cries, rushing off towards the aforementioned man's bedroom.

Once the bedroom is empty once again, Yumi whips his head towards me, eyes wide.
"Did you see Isaac's face?" He whisper-yells.

"Kind of? Your fatass was in my way." I roll my eyes.

"Ash, he was so pissed! That was jealousy at its finest, my friend."

I scoff, "No. You're not filling my head with false hope. I'm not going down that road again."

"I'm serious! He looked like steam was gonna start shooting out of his ears!"
"Sure. I'm sure he was just worried that I was gonna be crushed under your weight."

Yumi rushes forward, a grin on his face, "Let's make a bet."
"That makes me nervous." I say, crossing my arms.

"We do more of that," He gestures to where we were laying, "Fake sexual shit."
He pauses, looking to me for approval.

"Go on?" At this point, I'm curious to see where he's taking this idea.

"If Isaac gets jealous and all possessive like he just was- which he will- I win. If he doesn't, and he doesn't care, you win. I'll bet 100 bucks on him getting jealous." He smirks.

"I'll take that. 100 bucks on him not caring" I grin, sticking my hand out for him to shake.
