Isolation

It has been a month since the training started and you are getting ready for what could be the worst part of the training. The isolation phase. For this, you have all gone to star city, Russia. At least they are treating you well.

"Have you got everything?" Kelsey asks. You double-check everything and you hesitantly nod. He takes your bags for you.

"At least Roman should be happier here," You remark. You hate the fact that the facilities at the johnson space centre were not big enough for the whole crew. Ten minutes later you have made it to the facility that will be housing you for two weeks. Danny gathers the main cockpit crew for a photo op.

"Sorry guys but the press are asking for it," Clearly Danny wants to get this part of the training done as much as you. You all pull the best heroic poses that you can possibly do in the constraints of the location.

"Thank you," Danny ushers you all into the building.

"I will see you on the other side," you say.

"Good luck," Danny remarks as he gives you a quick salute. Two minutes later you are all gathered around the main living room table. Roman has just brought up an interesting issue.

"I'm sorry if I am offending anyone but I really don't want to deal with anyone who snores," Roman is clearly not going to change his position.

"Ok, then who knows they don't snore. Raise your hand," You decide to take charge. A lot of hands go up.

"Roman who will you get along with?" You decide to let him decide.

"Umm. Ivan," He responds. They both leave to find a room. After ten minutes of painful negotiation, there is only you and Kelsey left. You both head to the biggest room in the facility. You are trying to work out whether or not you want the left or the right bed. Luckily Kelsey decides for you by placing his stuff on the left bed. You decide to go check on the others. You hear yelling from one of the rooms. It's Cassidy and Benji. They are having the worst debate to have in this situation.

"Benji you know you should have taken less," Cassidy remarks. You barge in.

"Ok commander can you tell Benji that personal space is important," Cassidy thrusts one of Benji's shirts at him.

"Well divide the room in half and you each get a half and if you have any more problems speak to me instead of arguing," You know it's cheesy but if it stops them arguing it will work. You move on to the next room which belongs to Roman and Ivan. They are faring much better than Benji and Cassidy. They are talking about being related to someone famous. It is a feeling you know all too well. 

"Well look at it this way if it wasn't for my uncle Yuri we wouldn't be here," He responds to whatever Roman had said before.

"Who is your uncle?" You ask even though you know he is most likely talking about Yuri Gagarin.

"Yuri Gagarin," He confirms your thinking.

"So Lilly what are you doing here?" Roman asks. He sounds like he is a little offended.

"I'm just making sure we don't have any issues with the sleeping arrangements," You respond. Both Ivan and Roman shake their heads.

"No issues here," They respond at almost the same time. Slowly you get around to checking on everyone. Some are going to fare well but you are not sure about others. You finally get around to talking to Jay who is lucky because he gets a room to himself.

"So Lilly how are you feeling about the living arrangements?" He flips it onto you. You haven't had time to think about it for yourself.

"Ask me that question in a couple of days because I have been helping the others," You respond. At least there is only one issue that is threatening the isolation. It has been three days since the isolation has started and you wake up to the smell of bacon and egg. You roll over to find Kelsey gone. It makes sense that he is up earlier than you. You head to the kitchen to find a shirtless Kelsey. You are slightly taken aback
