Everyone in the roommate house had arrived. They all awkwardly said their hellos and sat in the living room, many of them tried to lighten up the mood with jokes or questions about their jobs. But as soon as the question was answered they stayed quiet expecting someone else to talk, the room was completely awkward until one of the American roommates smoothed out the wrinkles in her skirt and looked at the handsome faces of her roommates.
"I heard Sage Brown was going to be here" she said looking around the room. The 6 people present nodded with small smiles, "Oh yes! Sage Brown very popular in America, yes?" one of the Korean members asked.
One of the male American members nodded with a smirk, "Yeah, she is very beautiful too"
The girl who first asked the question nudged the man that said the comment who was besides her.
"Oh yes. I heard she is very beautiful" one of the Korean roommates comments as he nods and looks up Sage online.
He passed his phone around showing a picture of Sage flashing a sexy half smile at the camera and cleavage showing.
The South Korean men gulped down water making the American actors laugh at their reactions, one of the men pointed wide eyed at the phone "Very pretty"
The Korean actresses also gasped at the picture and agreed with the men, "When is she arriving?"
The girl that first mentioned Sage shrugged but clapped her hands excitedly, "I don't know! But I am really excited! I am a really big fan"
"I am excited too" the man besides her said, "shall we present ourselves and then make some dinner?"
Everyone nodded and smiled at their new roommates, "Okay. Who starts?"
Everyone stayed quiet as awkward silence engulfs them again, "Why don't we start with you guys?" One of the Korean teammates said referring to the American guests of this season.
"Okay"
The girl that mentions Sage stood up and walked to the middle of the room in order for her other 8 roommates to see her.
The girl looked had this bright aura around her, she was young and beautiful making most of the Korean men hold their breathes as soon as she came in.
"annyeonghaseyo (Hello) my name is Cassie Tennant. I am 19" she bowed with a sweet smile. Everyone clapped at her first Korean word they heard her say, all the men looked at her intently which made Cassie turn a dark shade of red, "I am barely starting as an actor so please take care of me in this show, thank you"
Everyone clapped and the young man besides her stands up and takes Cassie's place in the front, "Hey, my name is Collin Peters. I am a model back in America, it's nice to meet you. Please note that I am a very annoying but funny guy, so please have patience with me" he said and clapped, then he walked to sit down until he runs back to his place to add one more thing "Oh I am 20 years old" everyone chuckles as he runs back to his seat clumsily.
Next a man stood up, his colored eyes caught all the girls in the room by surprise, he looked and was a very handsome some man.
"annyeonghaseyo (Hello) I am Fred Reek, call me Feddy please" he smiled and bowed "I am 27 years old, I am both a model and actor" he said and his low, slow voice made every girl swoon.
The girls clapped and he sat down with a satisfied grin.
"So Sage is left of the American guests" Cassie said as he looked at a particular man sitting across from her.
"Do you guys want to start?" Freddy asks rubbing his hands together.
"Sure, why not" one of the men stood up snd made their way to the middle of the living room just like the last presenters. He smiled which made the girls sight with awe, "annyeonghaseyo (Hello) very nice to meet you. My English isn't very good but I am confident...me learn more" he said and the people around smiled, "My name is Park Bo Gum, I am 22 years old and I am an actor here in Korea, please take care of me and I hope we can all live together in harmony"
Bo Gum sat down and the girls clapped at the cute 22 year old boy who would live ad their roommate.
"Okay, Hello" he said as he made his way up the sofa, "my name is Kim Jong-in, but you can all call me Kai please. I am 22 years old and I am a singer/dancer in this boy group called EXO" the handsome young man said as he gave Cassie a small smirk.
"Please take care of me, let's be friends" he bowed like 10 times after sitting down on his place once more.
Cassie being the happy virus she is, clapped and smiled "Oh that is great, please show me some Korean too"
Suho nodded and sat in the couch, once again the silence attacked the room until Bo Gum gestured at the last male in the Korean line to stand up.
The young man gulped and stood up, rubbing his sweaty hands on his tight jeans. Cassie contains a giggle to escape her mouth, she meticulously inspected the man that stood in front of everyone, "annyeonghaseyo (Hello)... my name is Park Tae Min, I am 22 years old... I am an actor/ model, it's nice to meet you all. I hope we can all get along and form a family"
The roommates clapped and smiled at the young, tall man.
"Okay now the girls" Cassie chimed making the people around her note down her bright attitude.
"Hello, My name is Lee Sung-kyoung, I am 24 years old. I work as a model/ actress, please be patient with me since I am a bit clumsy" she chuckled and bowed to get back in her seat.
Someone cleared their throat snd everyone looked to the front to see a beautiful woman with black bangs stood, "Hello. My name is Song Hye-kyo, please don't ask my age, I beg of you" she said laughing as the other chuckled at her praying hands "I've been in the acting industry for at least 10 years now" the woman smiled and she earned some surprised expressions.
"Since everyone --except the last member-- presented themselves let's make some dinner. I brought some octopus" Hye-kyo says with a bright smile, everyone nods and Cassie gulps at the word octopus.
"Great, I am good at cooking" Freddy says pulling his sleeves up to his mid arm which attracted eyes from Sung-kyoung and Hyo-kyo as he passed by.
"nollal manhan (Amazing)" Sung-kyoung muttered as Hyo-kyo laughed at the cute youngster.
----------
Sage got off from the white van and cameras for the reality show started to film her arrival at the roommate house. She smiled at the camera and nervously looked around the neighborhood, her timing was a bit off as she was supposed to get there 2 hours earlier.
"Wow, amazing sunset" she looked up at the sky as Mark said pointing at the sky.
"Yes" she murmured, Mark looked at her with worried eyes and called her name.
"I hope you cause no trouble in there, please be patient and caring to your adults. Everything will be fine, I'll pick you up tomorrow for our next appointment"
Sage nodded avoiding eye contact with the man she was in love with. She knew that if she looked at him, her heart would ache. The blonde thought of this show as live prison with cameras everywhere. She no longer could have her privacy or meet with Mark, she had to fake a good personality 24/7.
"Okay, thats the doorbell" Mark said pointing at a small black button besides the metallic door. Sage stared at the doorbell for a good few seconds, enjoying the peace and calm of the silent streets around her... until a desperate Mark rings the doorbell.
The cameras point back at Sage and was suddenly blinded by the lights. She was slightly pushed forward to the metallic door, "Who is this?" A sweet voice said.
Sage cleared her throat and looked back at Mark who glared at her behind the cameras, "Uhm... Is this the roommate house? Oh wait. I am sure it is" she said mumbling the last part to herself, "This is Sage Brown, can someone open the door?"
A squeal was and a crash was heard, Sage frowned and pressed the doorbell once more, "Hello?"
"I am sorry, I'll open it now Sage" a familiar voice said to Sage as she smiled back at the cameras and waved as she opened the metallic door.
The blondie's heart was beating hard, thoughts of her new roommates clouded her head: Will they like her? Will she like them?
The metallic door led to a spacious yard with a small fence, the door's house opened immediately and 9 heads popped out, looking at the 23 year old girl agape. Suddenly Cassie squeezed her way outside and came closer to her favorite actress in Hollywood.
"Oh my... hello! I- I will be your roommate, and- and I am a huge fan. Oh my god! This is insane, you're actually standing in front of me!" the fangirl side of Cassie said with a squeaky voice making Sage's ears hum.
"Oh... thank you" she said holding a big bag with her makeup up, a familiar figure stepped outside this time with a big smile on his lips.
"Sage Brown" the familiar sexy voice said. Sage's eyes widened as she raised her free arm and pointed at an old friend, "Fred Reek? No way. What are you doing here?"
Freddy hugged the blondes small figure and took the big bag of makeup in his arms, "I thought you knew already"
Sage shook her head and patted his muscular back, "No one tells me anything" she chuckled while Freddy gave her a small laugh.
"Guys, help her out with her bags, I bet she brought her whole house" Freddy said with a bright smile, Sage scoffed and followed Freddy inside the big house.
As she walked in, everyone looked at her with awe, Freddy patted a tall boy's back making him step forward, "This is... no don't tell me... uhm... Park Tae Min?"
The tall man nodded, his tanned skin looked so smooth in Sage's eyes. She then bowed and the man bowed about three times more earning a chuckle from Freddy, "He is shy and cute"
"Hello. I am sorry- sorry I- I didn't introduce my-myself-- uhm... my name is Cassie Tennant" the girl from earlier said as she shook her hand, violently moving it up and down.
Sage pulled away after a few seconds and smiled, "I am Sage Brown"
"Oh god I know. You're the best--"
"Easy tiger. You're going to sound crazier than you already are" another familiar youngster said.
"Collin?" She asked and pointed at the handsome man with a playful smirk which he returned, he hugged Sage and moved her around like a rag doll.
"Ugh. I remember why I didn't miss you" the blonde said with the few oxygen she had left, Collin finally let her go after a few seconds to let the others say their hellos.
Two beautiful girls bowed and Sage and introduced themselves as Sung-kyoung and Hye-kyo, the girls complemented eachother's hair and nails until the shy guys from the corners finally decided to say hello.
The three bowed and gulped as they noticed your staring, "Omo... uhm... sorry... " Park Bo Gum said and awkwardly scratched his neck.
He abruptly bowed making Sage slightly jump back, "Nice to meet you, my name is Park Bo Gum"
"Hello" Sage smiled at the boy who gave her a beautiful smile, making the walls around Sage crumble to the floor.
Sage thought about how a man like him look so innocent and sexy, while the smile is the total killer asset.
Suddenly one young man caught Sage's green eyes attention, he was handsome and murmured in Korean to Tae Min. When Kai noticed her staring they stopped, gulped then bowed to greet the young lady that just arrived to their home.
"My name is Kim Jong-in, but please call me Kai" Kai bowed
"Hello, I am Sage" she said once again with a chuckle, the blonde looked out the door and noticed her bags were still outside the house.
"Can you guys help me with my bag--"
As soon as the words escaped Sage's mouth, all the men in the room ran outside. The girls laughed at how cute they all looked as they moved her luggage to the second floor of the spacious house.

Sage inspected the house, she checked the cozy looking living room, the kitchen, bathrooms, and empty rooms on the first floor since she decided to stay a bit longer with her new 'roommates'.
As the 23 year old returned to the living room. Suho closed the main door and eventually everyone gathered in the living room.
"The house is really amazing, huh?" Freddy asks as he snakes an arm around Sage's small shoulders, she nods her head with a small smile.
"It's nice to see you" he says as he slightly squeezes the blondie's body against his hard chest. The roommates stared at their affectionate hug; Bo Gum looks around awkwardly, the EXO members check their phones to not look at the couple, and Hye-kyo with Sung-kyoung looked down at their laps.
On the other hand, Cassie and Collin smiled and stared at the couple with no awkwardness.
Freddy looks around his new Korean friends and senses the awkward tension, he then turned to his American friends, they smiled at him with no worries.
"Sorry, I guess we have a bit of differences. We all have high skinship levels" he chuckles and Bo Gum nods understandingly.
"Yes, we are more shy in those terms" Hye-kyo said and Suho nodded.
"Oh yes. I've noticed in many of the K-dramas I've seen" Cassie points out, "In this drama, the couple finally kissed... the lips connected but they didn't move"
Sage chuckled and nodded, "Yes. I've seen it!"
"Yes, the cameras go crazy with the angles" Collin adds and he pretends to have a camera on his hands. He bounced left to right at Cassie who connected her rosy lips against her fingers and stayed motionless as cameraman Collin got on top of the sofa and filmed her.
We all laughed at the true statement and Hye-kyo nodded, "Actually the kiss scenes were very awkward to film, here in Korea we don't have much skinship because many elders consider it disrespectful. So when I did my first drama, the kiss scene was horrible. It was like kissing a wall, we can't move--"
"We must do it multiple times" Bo Gum adds to which Hye-kyo agreed to.
"On the other hand, in America you guys go crazy" Kai said with a contagious laugh.
Freddy released a loud laugh, and nudged Sage's arm who flustered at the remembrance of her sex scenes in movies/ TV shows.
"True! From you guys. Have you had any long kisses?" Bo Gum asks shyly.
"In my experience-- yes" he says in defeat and everyone laughs at Freddy who turned red.
"Cassie-ssi?" Kai asked at the cute brunette, his eyes were fixed on hers making Cassie turn bright red.
"Well... I am barely starting with my career, so I haven't had any cameras kisses"
Collins nodded, "I am a model, but I've had many photoshoots that involved a kiss or two"
"Sage-ssi?" Tae Min asks in his shy honey-like voice.
Freddy snorts while Cassie and Collins laugh out loud. Sage was very famous for the intimate scenes in her shows, the blonde slaps Collins' face with the pillow in her lap.
"What?" Kai asked, everyone was interested in what the 4 weird Americans laughed about.
Tae Min leans in and his hand rubbed together, waiting for an answer. Bo Gum tried to act uninterested, and failed miserably; Suho and the two girls silently bit their lips.
"I don't think the staff can show some scenes from 'Bachelor's Temptation'" Freddy says looking at Collins.
Cassie laughs at the show Freddy named, "Oh yes. That show has everything--" Sage covers Cassie's lips in a playful manner.
"Can I answer the question without you guys teasing me?" she asks with a small laugh.
"Go ahead" Freddy says as he positions himself ready to hear her answer.
"Okay. I've had many kiss scenes--" Sage says uncovering Cassie's lips, she snickers and Collins smiles at her.
"Can I just add something?" Freddy asks, interrupting Sage. She glared at the hot friend of her, "Go ahead"
"I met Sage when she was 21, she is fantastic! Beautiful, talented and everything" he explains an the roommates hear him intently.
"She played my little sister in a movie where I met her. She had more kiss scenes than me, who played the main character" he said and everyone starts to tease Sage.
"You guys go... full on" Sung-kyoung comments as she smacks her hands together, making everyone burst out in laughter.
"How do you do it?" Suho asks and everyone looks at him wide eyed then laugh their asses off,"Hyung" Kai says in disbelief.
After a moment Suho understands what he asks as he shook his hands in front of him in a panicked manner.
"Not like that, I meant how does she deal with awkwardness" Suho clarifies.
"Well... obviously yes. And the fact that people are watching makes it even more uncomfortable, but you have to get it right or else you have to do it again and again" she explains, "So it's better to talk about the situation with your co-star and go for it to get it right at the first time"
Hye-kyo nods and high fives Sage, Tae Min nods and Kai kept teasing Suho who pinches him discretely making Kai fall off the couch.
"We were making dinner before you arrived. Let's cook and talk some more" Hye-kyo says as she gets up and everyone follow the oldest roommate in the house.
They all got to their stations, Kai and Bo Gum chopped carrots and peeled cucumbers in the corner. Tae-min and Suho looked around for ingredients, while Collin and Cassie set the table. Sung-kyoung squealed as she helped Freddy and Hye-kyo with the octopus which was so fresh it still moved around, this sent chills through Sage's back.
"Sage-ssi, may I ask your age?" Bo Gum asks politely with a wonderful smile, who can say no to this kid?
"I am 23" Sage said walking to Kai's and Bo Gum's station, they nodded and Kai looked uo at her, "Noona can you help us with the carrots?"
"Noona?" Sage frowned as she grabbed an carrot and shares the cutting board with Bo Gum.
"Yes, noona is what boys tell older girls or older sisters. Unnie is what you would call Sung-kyoung and Hye-kyo since they are older than you. Oppa is what you would call Freddy as he is older than you, and finally you would call us dongsaeng since we are younger than you" Kai explained as everyone listened intently, "And hyung is what we would call Freddy since he is older than us"
"Can we call you noona?" Tae Min asks appearing besides Sage. The blondie smelled cologne as he stood beside her, she sighted as she loved the smell of Tae Min's cologne.
"Sure, noona sounds pretty cute" Sage nods and Tae Min looks down at the blonde curls of Sage which bounced off her shoulders.
"Are you going to call me oppa?" Freddy asks cheekily at Sage.
"No I am calling you noona" Sage says and everyone laughs at the comment. Freddy grabs an octopus tentacle and walks to Sage who back up, crashing into Tae Min.
Sage then uses Tae Min's tall body as a shield, he laughs and Sage moves him back with her hands pulling on his soft shirt.
"Tae Min!" Sage squeals as Freddy gets closer, Tae Min being the gentleman he is shielded Sage as she walked backwards.
"Sage" Freddy sings her name mockingly, Sage grabs Tae Min's hand and pulls him across the counter and they both dodge the octopus tentacle Freddy threw at Sage.
"Holy--" Cassie laughs at Collin, who had the slimy tentacle on his face, he remained calmed as he waited for Hye-kyo take the thing off.
He washed his face and walked to the nearest camera in the kitchen he could find, "That's it. Someone text me McDonald's address"
-----
When everyone finished eating they remained in the table, contemplating the empty dishes in front of them.
"Oh, what is that?" Sage points at a red envelope in the door. Kai walks over and takes the envelope to the table, Sung-kyoung peeks over Kai's shoulder to see the content.
"Hmm... it says we should pick roommates, 2 per room. Girls with girls, guys with guys" Sung-kyoung says.
Sung-kyoung looks Hye-kyo, "I aim for that connection right there. Look at them, they talk with their eyes" Collin points at the girls and turns at Tae Min.
"Bro. Let's try it. Talk to me without talking" Tae Min looked at Collin like he grew another head.
"You're just so weird" Sage says as she lazily rubs he neck.
"Tae Min is my hyung, Tae-tae please be my roommate" Collin pulls off his signature puppy face at the guy who already had a cute puppy face without trying.
Tae Min looks at Sage, "You don't have to say yes, dump him and leave with Bo Gum" Freddy comments making Collin gasp.
"You are dumping me hyung?" Collin places his hand over his heart and faked a pained expression, "Ugh, I've been shot"
Cassie laughs and Hye-kyo watched Collin's actions amused, "Is he always like this?"
"Always" Freddy and Sage say at the same time causing Kai to laugh.
"Sure, I'll partner up with you" Tae Min smiles and his eyes flickered to where Sage sat, but she looked down at her nails not even noticing his staring.
"Okay. I guess I am with you Bo Gum" Kai raises his hand and Bo Gum gives him a high five.
"Unnie is sharing with me" Sung-kyoung exclaims with her arms tugging on Hye-kyo's blouse.
"I'll be in the single room since there are only 9 of us" Freddy grins satisfied.
"Then that leaves us" Cassie says as she looks at Sage, she has her eyes closed. The food made her even more sleepier than before, "Okay. Then paper, rock, scissors. Losers wash the dishes and clean the kitchen" Freddy comments.
"You do it" Sage waves a hand at Cassie who nods her head excitedly, "Yay! I love this game!"
"Yay" the blonde responds monotonously to the over excited roommates.
"Ready?" Kai asks.
"Who's playing? Teams state your player" Kai says, "I'll be playing for my team" Bo Gum nods at Kai giving him a sloppy back massage.
"Cassie's playing for the team" Sage says and Cassie nods.
"I guess I nominate myself" Freddy shrugged.
"Collin?" Tae Min asks and he winks at him.
"Better be ready to sleep early tonight tae-tae" Collin says as he cracks his fingers.
"Sung-kyoung, fighting" Hye-kyo cheers.
The 5 roommates position themselves in a circle, they all looked at eachother with suspicion, "Paper, rock, scissors!" Collin exclaims and Freddy hisses as Sung-kyoung cheers and high fives Hye-kyo.
"Okay. Paper, rock scissors!" Kai chants and this time he hisses as Freddy and Cassie cheer.
Collin receives a back massage from Tae Min who laughed at Collin's serious face, "Okay. I am ready EXO member"
Kai smiles "Paper... rock... scissors!" Kai exclaims and Bo Gum screamed happily as Kai got a rock and Collin scissors.
Tae Min rubs his face and Collin leaves to the corner and lays on the floor with an expressionless face.
