04. Choosing Rooms

"TO ENTER YOUR HAUS, you must simply place your hand against the handprint beside the door." Suddenly, the brick wall turned into a glass door, revealing the first corridor of the HAUS.

Lots of girls gasped in surprise and awed at how beautiful it looked. "HAUS? Like, house?" S8 asked, continuing to eat her food.

"I guess so." S5 wondered,

"You mean, that huge and pretty building is our house?!" S6 asked while pointing at the HAUS, smiling in awe.

A few had finished eating and got up from their seats, heading towards the door. "You don't mind if we head inside, do you?" S13 asked as her hand hovered over the handprint against the wall.

When she got the reply she hoped for, she placed her hand against the wall and the door slid open. "Woah..." She stepped inside, a few girls following behind.

One after another, girls finished eating and headed inside the HAUS. They checked every room and every corner that could possibly be seen by the human eye. "How is it this big?! Why is it this big?!" S10 asked, flailing her arms about.

S9 chuckled and placed her hands against hers to stop her from hitting anyone, "Just enjoy it. Do you wanna share a room?" The pair then looked in every room to see which was the best.

S4 watched them as they decided on sharing a room. She then raised her voice, cupping her hands around her mouth, "Who wants to bunk with me?!"

Someone approached her from behind and shouted aswell, "Me!" She turned around and blushed slightly when she realised it was S3.

It's safe to say that for the past few hours, she has had a growing attraction towards S3. She nodded, "A-Alright. Have you seen a room that you like?"

S3 shook her head, "Nope. I don't mind. You can choose." She smiled at her, "Which one do you like?"

"Um, pink. T-The pink room is nice." S4 scolded herself for blushing and feeling flustered so easily.

"Okay, let's go and claim it then!" S3 took a hold of her hand and went to find the pink room to claim it as theirs.

On the other hand, there were a few people that were a little shy to ask anyone to share a room. It would have to happen eventually, so a few mustered up the courage.

"U-um, unnie." S17 tapped S7 on the arm shyly. S7 turned around and looked at the younger girl with a small smile, "Oh, S17, yes?"

"Would you like to share a room with me?" She asked, playing with her fingers a bit. S7 chuckled as she took in her shy demanor. 'She's so tall but she's like a baby.' S7 thought as she nodded, "Of course. Which one do you wanna use? I'm not too bothered."

As S8 talked with S2 in the living room, she watched S7 and S17 head off towards the rooms. She felt slightly saddened that she couldn't get to ask S7 to share a room first, but it was okay. There were many other chances to hang out with her.

"Woah, unnie, i can't stop looking at your face. It's so my type!" S6 exclaimed, clutching onto S5's arm. S5 chuckled and tried nudging the younger girl off of her arm, "What're you talking about, S6? Go choose a partner for your room."

S12 walked towards them, "S6, share a room with me." She didn't ask, but rather, she had already decided that they would be sharing a room.

S6 moaned, "Noo, but i wanna share a room with unnie." Still clutching onto S5's arm.

"I'm taking one of the single rooms, sorry, S6." S5 said apoligetically as she looked between the two younger girls.

S6 ungrasped S5's arm and pouted with her head down, "Well, i guess if there's no other way..." She began to walk towards the rooms. S12 jogged up behind her, "Wait for me!"

As S1 walked out of the bathroom, she noticed a bit of chaos happening down the hallway so she went to check it out.

When she arrived, she looked at the five younger girls with her eyebrows furrowed together, "What the..." As she took in the situation, she rolled her eyes, "S19, stop flirting with everyone and choose a room!"

S19 had bright brown hair, making her stand out within a crowd. She also had her arms around two girls' shoulders as she talked. "Why, pretty unnie? Do you wanna share a room with me, too?"

"Aish..." S1 sighed and walked away, heading towards the living room. She notices S5 just sitting on the couch, about to fall asleep.

S1 chuckles quietly, "Unnie." She nudges her shoulder softly as she crouches beside the sofa. S5 opens her eyes and they land on the girl crouched infront of her. "Sleep in your bed, not on the couch."

S5 groans quietly and mumbles, "Whatever..." She sits up from the sofa and stands up, swaying slightly. S1 steadys her by placing her hands against her arms.

Since they're both staying in the only two single rooms in the HAUS, their rooms are right next to eachother.

When they reach S5's room, S1 walks in with her. "What's got you all tired, unnie?" S1 asks, making sure S5 doesn't trip over anything.

"S6." She sighs as she falls onto the bed, "That kid's a real nusance. Her flirting is never-ending."

S1 chuckled quietly, "I know. Surely it'll die down over time, right?"

S5 hummed, "It's not like i can even get dressed into pyjamas... When do you think our luggage will arrive?" She asks, sitting up on her bed.

S1 pouted in thought and sat on the edge of the bed, "Well last time i checked it was half six... So it's probably just after seven now. Surely they wouldn't leave it too late. There's a thirteen year old living with us, for God's sake."

The room was silent for a while. S5 just couldn't help but stare at S1. Everything she did... She looked so cute and squishable. S5 gave her a small smile, "You're cute."

S1 glanced at the older girl in surprise, "W-What are you talking about? Jeez." She stood from the bed and fiddled with her hair a little bit. "I'm going to go make sure everyone has chosen rooms." She declared, opening the door.

"Ah, i'll come with you." S5 said, quickly getting off of her bed and heading towards the door.

"You're not tired?" S1 asked, slightly worried.

She shook her head, "No, i'm fine now. Let's go." She reassured her as S1 shut the door behind them.
