"Well... This is awkward"

"Shut up Kai"

If everyone was honest with themselves it was awkward, out of all the awkward moments that had occurred between the two groups till this point, out of all the awkward moments they'd had in their individual lives, if you added up the awkward it still wouldn't be as awkward as this. The silence had been fine during the meal. Everyone was too busy eating to bother making conversation, but now everyone was done, sitting here in the candle light was incredibly uncomfortable.

"Well this is awkward" laughed Haeng. Her nature always found something happy in everything... God it pissed of the others sometimes, being around the same people 24 hours a day is a stressful enough, when that person just so happens to be a miniaturised ball of hyperactive sunbeams it can be unbearable. However at times, she was exactly what was needed to give everyone an energy boost or to get a convocation started.“We just felt like we should all get some things cleared up about everyone is all”

"Basically, we wondered if you had any questions about us, I don’t think we have any necessarily about you guys. You already told us everything when we first met and we obviously know who you are, I mean your Exo and your from SNSD and Krystal your f(x)'s makanae and-"

"Pinky…Shush"

"Sorry" Pinkie blushed deeply.

"Anyway" Taro continued "We asked you all sorts of questions and you have asked nothing of us. Is there anything in particular you want to know? Ask anything. We don’t bite" Casting a sideways look to a smirking Mink she amended her statement “Well, most of us don’t atleast”

“But you kind of deserved it Taro”

“How Sap, please explain”
“No matter how close you are to someone, even if you’re sleeping in the same bed, if you put something over or in someone’s mouth when they’re not paying attention they’re going to bite it”

“Can we get back on track please?” Roe asked shuffling around on her seat until she was practically lying on top of Haeng.

“Right, sorry. Any questions?”

There was an extremely tense silence as each of them looked to one another, they either didn’t have anything to ask or didn’t want to be the first one. Suddenly Kai once again broke the atmosphere.

"Yes, are you guys interested in having a 7-way with me?"

"KAI!"

"What they said anything"

"That is just inappropriate, you can't just-" Before the red faced D.O. could finish his rant 2 of the girls stood up. As Taro and Haeng sat either side of Kai on the floor D.O.'s eyes became even larger as they seemed to actually be considering it before-

"Sorry, not our type" and returning to their original positions. "Anything else"

"How did you guys end up here?" This time it was one of the managers that spoke, he was clearly the oldest but was in much better condition than any of the other three official adults.

"Here as in this area, or here as in South Korea?"

"Both"

"It's their fault" Pointing at her unni's with a scowl on her face, Sap settled closer to Krystal before continuing "It's them and their stupid brilliant ideas"

"Look, Sap I'm sorry. But as we can’t change what’s happened can we PLEASE just move on?"

Sighing Sap looked at her sister; she knew it wasn't her fault she just needed someone to blame "It's Ok I guess".

Turning to look at the idols and managers who were waiting for a better explanation, Mink rolled her eyes and placed her hand on her sister’s head. “Pinky and I have been pen pals since we were, what 12? 13? Anyway, when our school suggested a student exchange program, I suggested their boarding school as a host. We were sent over 7 months ago and were attending school with them. Haeng unni was our university grade monitor"

"Ahhh that makes sense but I thought most boarding school students were sent home during the early days"

"They were”

“So why weren’t you sent back to… wherever it is?”

“This is where it comes back to it being their fault" Inserted Sap again with a tone of annoyance.

"Hey, you seemed to think it was a good idea at the time too" As the group dissolved into mini arguments with them self, the stylist noona piped up for the first time since the two groups met. Without speaking, she had still managed to unnerve the six foreigners to the point they never wanted to be stuck in a room alone with her.

"Hey! Why weren't you sent home? what happened?"

"Well" Explained Roe "All of us attended very posh boarding schools since we were little and such so in true teenage spirit we decided to rebel a little"

"A little? Yah you got a tattoo! These three dyed their hair and nearly all of Taro's hair is gone. It looked like a dog had fallen asleep on the floor."

"So what Pinky, you came too" Mink piped up in defence of Roe, who had slid her eyes to the floor.

"Yeah but I only came to try and stop you"

"You picked my hair colour!"

"You told me too!"

"Yes. But I didn't say you could make me look like a snow cone"

"You said no pink; your favourite colour is blue"

"Yeah blue would have been fine. But you picked the brightest blue in the history of the world!"

"Well, I'm sorry OK!"

As Mink and Pinky stared at each other angrily, silence fell on the room once again.

"Awkward~" Sang Kai earning dagger stares from the rest of his companions. But this simply made the others begin giggling. As Pinky wrapped her arm around Mink, pulling her onto her lap in a hug it seemed all problems had instantly been forgotten. The leaders of the two groups noticed this and wondered how they managed to get there relationship to this stage where a single stupid act could solve all arguments…and would it work on the rest of the members.

"Any other questions?"

"Where are you going?" One of the other managers spoke up "I mean where do you hope to end up?"

"We don't know. Eventually we were hoping to get out of Korea. I mean Pi-"

"Roe!” Taro lowered her voice and attempted to whisper to the other, which ultimately failed “We don't know if we can trust them. Remember what happened with Sap a few days ago" As the manager who had spoken hung his head he felt the glares of all who had witnessed his disgrace as he hit on Sap repeatedly despite her protests and young age.

"Look. He's sorry, but we have no idea where we're heading or anything. It's not like we expect you to take us with you but we'd at least want to know out of curiosity. It would probably help us understand one another much better" As Kris spoke it was obvious they were going to give in, the way he spoke, his voice, even the look on his face as he  even the simplest of phrases was so convincing; it was obvious why he'd been put in charge.

The opposite group paused before giving Roe permission to speak.

"Our little dollie here is one of the few people in the world who can say that they're family could buy, I don’t know a whole country in Africa? and thanks to her inordinate wealth she received top lessons in horse riding, calligraphy, traditional drumming, piloting and boat...driving... or is it captinerring?"

"Roe"

"Sorry yeah, basically she has the skills to get us off the island; and her family home on the Busan waterfront has its own docks and 4 boats"

"Yachts, they're yachts not boats"

"Fine ok whatever yachts" It was obvious how excited she was at the prospect of escape. Chanyeol couldn't help but notice the way her eyes sparkled as she hopped up and down in her seat and gestured wildly. "And if they're all, like, broken it's just a little way back to get to Busan airport, so she could fly one of those, but obviously that’s a lot harder and yeah" She seemed to have run out of steam as she exhaled loudly, running her hand through her waist length hair.

"Ok. So you guys clearly have a plan set out"

"Yep" Haeng smiled at Suho, making the Exo-K leader feel all ease about the whole situation they were in. Which wasn’t easy, considering the situation they were in.

Kris nodded silently, it was a good plan. Perhaps not from Roe’s rapid expainantion but they probably or at least hopefully had it thought through in a little more detail than she gave. The plan seemed totally possible, or at least plausible, he wanted to ask if they could go together, everyone wanted him to ask but he couldn't. It was obvious they weren't close enough to be asking such big requests from them. Not to mention he'd already said he didn't expect them to offer, so congratulating himself for shooting himself in the foot, he remained quiet.

"I have another question"

"Sit down Kai"

"It's not just me, Sehun wants to know too"

"It's ok, what do you want to know?"

Sehun and Kai looked at each other and giggled themselves shocking everyone, why were they getting along so well? It wasn’t like they always fought but being of similar ages and having contrasting personalities, plus being forced to sleep in the same bed some nights was enough to put pressure on any relationship.

"Mink?"

"Huh?" Mink looked up, since Roe had begun speaking she'd kind of stopped listening and began day dreaming. Flicking her eyes towards Kai she leaned forward a little, acknowledging that her name was called.

"Ummmmm" Wait, was Kai blushing? Sehun too? This was weird, really weird; it was not right at all. "I-I always wondered, I… mean we were curious as to… h-how do you and Taro like, you know?"

"You know what?"

"I mean you know?"

"Wait I'm confused, what do we do Mink?"

"I really don't know"

"How do the two of you two get off? I’m guessing you two have been together for a while and have reached that stage in your relationship, but we don’t know how does the work with lesbians. I get how with guys but girls always puzzled me. Is just wi-"

"SEHUN!!!"

"WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU TWO?"

"I can't believe you just asked that"

"SERIOUSLY? I MEAN SERIOUSLY?"

"You two are so messed up"

"YAH! What have I told you two?"

"I want to know that too actually"

"Xiumin?!"

"What? I'm curious"

"You can't just ask people that"

"Why not? as Kai said earlier they said to ask anything"

"We're not lesbians"

Every one of the loud voices instantly stopped to look at the two amused faces of Mink and Taro, who were fighting to contain they’re laughter.

"Seriously we've been friends since we were what...8?"

"We're pretty much like one personality between two bodies"

"Oh" As Kai's face fell a mile, Sehun tried to stop his grin for showing.

"Sorry."

"It's fine"

“But if you really want to know how it works, Mink was a biology whizz at school, especially about human anatomy and the organs”

“Haeng-sshi, that’s very kind of you but I don’t think the boys need any more encouragement”

“Ok, no problem then”

"Anything else?"

As no one said anything Kris took the initiative, and after waiting a while, casually dismissed everyone before Kai or even Sehun or Xiumin could ask anymore erted questions.

"Great" Haeng said clasping her hands "In that case feel free to ask anything you want us to know in the future. In that case I wish you all a goodnight" She practically skipped through the doorway and up the stairs dragging a pouting Sap behind her.

As goodnights chorused throughout the building as people stood to enter their rooms, Kris couldn't help but notice Sooyoung and Krystal grabbing Mink and tugging her to follow them into the kitchen. Worried Kris followed suit. Who in turn was followed by Luhan and Lay.
