Figure it Out
A/N: I’m so sorry, this took way too long to come out didn’t it? College has had a death grip on me and I admit I haven’t been in my best conditions but I managed to write this and publish it to y’all.
I do have to sadly announce that this fic is nearing the ending and I cannot express how grateful I am for all of you for showing so much love to this story. Thank you so much for being with me and super late updates
anyways, ON WITH THE STORY

Chapter 17: Pack up and going home
Tumblr media
You had finally made it home, Lindsay’s jacket still hung on your shoulder and bunched in your grip. You make your way upstairs and she tucks you in, clearly concerned for your well-being. “I’ll get you some hot Choco to warm you up, ok?”
You nod and watch her leave your room. You open the front camera of your phone to see your nose red an eyes puffy, you wish you hadn’t cried so much. As you observe your features, you noticed a little tab on the top of your screen notifying you that you received a message.
Manager: Y/N, I hate to break the news to you like this but I could call you for this one..
You got on the phone with your manager and you felt your heart sink when you hears her say those words. You manage to maintain your composure till the end of the call before thanking your manager and hanging up. Lindsay enters your room and catches you with tears in your eyes.
“Y/N, what’s wrong?” She asks, her previous comforting manner shifts to concern. There was a lump in your throat that makes it difficult to respond, with what little bit of confidence you had left, you tried to speak without breaking.
“Lindsay I’m -... I’m going home.”
She immediately sets down the hot mug before throwing her arms around you. You felt weak and you both fall on your knees and cried in each others comfort. You wanted to tell her so many things. You wanted to thank her for everything and reminisce everything you two went through but nothing but broken sobs came out. You were glad that she was the one here when you got the news instead of being greeted by an empty apartment.
When you two had settled down, you told Lindsay everything. “My working visa expired so they couldn’t renew my contract. My parents also reached out to my manager, apparently my mom heard about me being admitted to the hospital and now they’re worried about me.”
Lindsay looked at you with teary eyes and she couldn’t do anything but hold you tight and tell you how much she’s going to miss you and you knew you’d miss her too.
“If I could I’d go with you and we can live together, I’ll ask your mom to adopt me and we’ll be sisters” Lindsay joked, to lighten the mood, which she successfully does so.
It was getting late so Lindsay suggest that she stays over and help you pack in the morning and you agreed. But you felt restless that night, you felt so tired but you just couldn’t seem to fall asleep. As a last resort you call your family and your mother answers.
“Honey, how are you?”  You couldn’t stop the tears from falling down your face when you heard her voice, it was comforting and sounded like home.
“I’m doing great ma, sorry for not calling often. We’re almost done taping and I’ll be done with work soon.” You managed to spill those words out and there was a bitter feeling that you had to push down your throat.
“That’s good to hear, we miss you so much here, are they giving you any trouble? why did you suddenly call?” Your mothers worried tone suddenly reminded you why you were calling.
“Actually.. ma, there’s something I need to tell you.” You move to sit on the corner of your bed, as your pause makes the atmosphere heavier and heavier. “Ma, my contract ended and.. I’m coming home soon.”
You said, with a bit of a laugh. You never knew those words would come out so sweet and you could hear your mother cooing at you on the other end of the line, talking about how excited they were for you to arrive and asking who would pick you up at the airport. Tear poured from your eyes but these were no longer of remorse, you were excited to go home to your family. After exchanging ‘I love you’s you hung up and turned to see Lindsay on her way down with a soft smile on her face.
“I’m sorry, did I wake you?” You asked, seeing the tiredness still in her eyes but she goes over to you to hug you and you hugged her back.
“I know you’re going home but hearing your phone call made everything so real.” She pulled away and looked at you and you can see tears starting to collect in her eyes again. “I don’t want you to go.”
You could hear the crack in her voice as she cries into your shoulder and all you could do was rub small circles into her back. You had 3 days to finish the taping and you’d be on a plane with all your hopes and dreams packed into a suitcase.

Chapter 16: Hurt me with your unspoken words
Tumblr media
The words had slipped through your lips, you had said the words that you’ve been holding back for so long and the tears began spilling from your eyes with it. The sun was setting and the wind was beginning to get cold but the warm tears rolled down your cheeks like a comforting touch.
Aidan pulls away with a shocked expression on his face but your heart had already shattered and you were ready to hear whatever he had to say. You never wanted things to end like this but it seemed that you were gonna have to suck it up till the end of the shoot.
Before Aidan could even say anything you heard both of your names being called from the distance. You turned to find Lindsay with a confused and concerned face running towards you before wrapping a jacket around you. “Y/N what are you doing out here in the cold?”
“What are you guys doing here?” Aidan questioned, clearly just as confused as you are but he staggered back because Lindsay was currently smothering you.
Jacob walks over to the boy, placing a palm on his shoulder unintentionally making him stagger away from you. “Lindsay wanted to check on Y/N, when she saw she wasn’t home she checked her snap location and found her here.”
“I’m gonna take Y/N home so I can watch over her.” Lindsay said, holding you by your shoulder, worry clearly lacing her tone. “Aidan, can you please take Jacob home?”
“S-Sure.” Aidan responded with hesitation, you could tell he had more to say but he couldn’t argue with the fact that he did take you somewhere cold despite just getting out of the hospital.
once you were away Aidan turned to Jacob with a tired expression. He caught the look on his face and gave small nod as if to confirm the response. Aidan sat on the floor and the latter did the same. “Did you know?”
“hm?” Jacob could only hum in response, unsure as to where the boy was taking this conversation or where it even came from but he could only watch as Aidan lays back into the soft grass.
“Did you know that Y/N had feelings for me?” he asks again, placing his arm over his eyes, unable to believe what you had just confessed. Sure he likes you but, to what extent? As a co-star? a sister? a friend?
“Not really, but Lindsay did.” Jacob joked and Aidan returned a chuckle, he sat up again uncertain of what to do now. It was up to him now, you had given your genuine feelings and he has to respond. “Listen, Aidan, you can’t turn things back now. You’re gonna have to tell her what you want from her.”
Up to this point, even he wasn’t certain what he wanted from you. He wanted to be closer to you and for you to open up to him but, then what? He didn’t even have enough to time to take in the look in your face. A bit of your hair had stuck onto your tear stained cheek, your nose and eyes red from crying, your lips slightly parted to breathe into, eyes glossy from the tears, and you looked so shy.
He wanted to feel bad that he was the reason for such a torn expression but he also thought you looked beautiful under the setting sun with such a genuine expression on your face. He never tried to hide that he found you absolutely beautiful but was there was this bashfulness to admitting that at first, part of him was attracted to you because of your looks but getting to know your strength and your playfulness, he realized he does like you...all of you, but there’s no certainty on how far he’ll take this admiration.
“You don’t know what you want, do you?” Jacob interrupts his train of thought making the boy look at him and he could see how confused Aidan was and he couldn’t help but feel a little bad by how clueless he was.
“No.. I really don’t.” He responded, a heavy sigh dropping out of his chest

Tumblr media
You were tossing and turning, unable to get some sleep. It could be because you stubbornly took up Five’s coffee offer or because it’s the middle of the day. Defeated in your attempt to go to bed, you changed out of your sleeping attire and made your way down to see what everyone else could possibly be up to. On your little prance to find Ben you heard a knock on the door.
To many, this is normal. Perhaps a bit shocking because of the fact that they weren’t expecting guests or it’s simply brushed off, expecting a salesman on the other side of the door. But a knock on the door isn’t normal in the Umbrella Academy, people do not just come by without previous arrangements.
Despite the further statement regarding this occurrence, you ignore the bad feeling in your gut and open the door anyway.
.   .   .
“You know I never meant for things to end like this, I wanted to be a loyal man to you.” Five spoke, a remorseful tone in his voice. He had been so caught up with the apocalypse and you that he had completely forgotten about his first love. Now here he was, alcoholic drink in hand, talking to the mannequin on the stool. “I know you’re stirring up a storm, just get angry with me.”
Five stood there, bracing for impact that never came. He took a swig of the drink and turned to her with a stern expression but got nothing. “Dolores?”
His face shifted into confusion, walking towards her and examining her frame to see any sign of an injury or if someone had replaced her when he wasn’t looking but it was exactly as she was when he left. His eyes blinking rapidly when he suddenly realized there wasn’t anything wrong with her, he simply couldn’t hear her anymore.
He took a seat next to her, unable to process the fact that he just lost her. There was no slow death, watching her go, fighting for her life, or anyone to blame. She was just gone before he knew it, the mannequin next to him was simply nothing more than an empty husk who was once the love of his life. “You always said you wanted to do more than this. I guess I just never knew you would leave me one day, Dolores.”
He took his car, carefully placing the mannequin into the passenger’s seat before driving off to where he had fallen in love with her all over again. Entering the store, he placed her down where he once marveled at her brilliance.
“I wished things hadn’t ended like this with you, I wish I could’ve given you the best and promise a brighter future for the both of us but I’m not certain of that myself.” He spoke softly, trying to hold back the tears that was burning in the back of his eyes. He couldn’t even feel her presence and knowing he would never hear her again nearly brought him to his knees. “I’ll always treasure the time we spent together.”
He leaned forward, kissing her forehead one last time before wiping the tear that managed to slip down before walking away. On his way out he walked by the unsuspecting worker “Excuse me, can you put something new on that mannequin? She likes sequence.”
With a pat on her back, he was out and ready to move on. When he pulled over the car at the academy’s parking lot, he sat in the car to process what had just happened. He took a deep and steady breath before stepping out of the car and walking into the academy, as he was about to find you he was stopped by his brothers.
“Five, it’s good you’re here. We’ve been looking for you.” Luther said, stopping the boy in his tracks. There was a bit of surprise on the sudden encounter with his brothers, it’s not like he was surprised to see them, he was just taken back by their sudden appearance while he was thinking.
“It took a while, but we got her.” Diego added, a smug look on his face. The older younger? boy bites on the inside of his lower lip in thought before coming to a realization. He had been so side tracked that he nearly forgot what he had asked from the two.
“Good job, where is she?” Five asked, following the other two before setting his plan into motion.
After everything was set up he took a seat on the bar by the living room, stirring a drink. He had everything set up and he knew in a few minutes he would have Hazel behind him in 3...2...1
A loud bang was heard as a sign of the academy’s door being slammed open. When he heard the foot step stop behind him, he sets down his drink with a smile on his face “You know the door was unlocked.”
“I didn’t have to, someone opened it for me.” Hazel’s statement was condescending, making him lift his head before quickly turning to find you at gun point. His eyes widen, not anticipating this scenario to occur. His chests collapses on him and for a moment he was lost for words but he manages to regain his composure.
“You’re betting a dangerous deal, Hazel. So let’s come to an agreement.” Five snaps his finger and Agnes comes walking in with a nervous look on her face which also caught the man off guard. “You know me.”
“You’re a passionate man, Five.” Hazel says to which Five responds with by raising his brows and tilting his head, acknowledging the compliment. “But I’m not here to hurt you.”
“You have my girl at gun point. You hurt her, you hurt me.” Five states directly. Hazel then puts away his gun and Five nods at Agnes, allowing her to run into Hazel’s arms.
You made your way to Five who takes you into his arms. His hold was desperate and he presses a firm kiss on your forehead before letting out a relieved sigh. You lift your head from his chest and he looks over at the other two in the room.
“I’m here to help you stop the apocalypse.” Hazel sated, dropping his gun to the floor. Five loosens his hold on you and turn to Hazel, showing he has his full attention. “I’m a changed man, Five. And I can see you are too, without all the killing it takes a strong woman to build you up stronger.”
Both you face flushes red, feeling flustered by the statement. Five clears his throat to get back to the topic at hand. Hazel acknowledges the cue and hands over the suitcase. “The apocalypse is naturally caused by your sister, Vanya. Which is why we were sent to protect Harold Jenkins. But because of your tampering with the timeline and an unexpected entity obscuring the flow, orders have changed.”
“So Vanya caused the apocalypse..” You stated in a hush tone, contemplating the extent of her ability but you decided to ponder on that thought later. “Wait, how did she cause the apocalypse?”
“Well, in the original timeline she comes to terms with her ability and kills Harold Jenkins herself. She returns to the academy but Luther locks her up due to his inability to find inner healing.”
“He’s a sensitive man.” Five states, defensing his brother. Hazel nods in agreement.
“The traumatic experience brings out an unstoppable force that destroys the whole world. But because Vanya was taken away from Harold before he can cause any further damage and Luther found some inner healing.. all of this happened because of her.”
Hazel gestured towards you making you confused. You were certain if anyone was going to be the one to stop the apocalypse it would be Five. “Don’t you mean Five?”
“You did do most of the work. Your ability to set Luther on track and bringing Vanya home to meet Ben set everyone into a much more stable state of mind.” Hazel explained, giving you a smile, acknowledging your skills and you smile in return.
“But what now? It sounds to me the apocalypse is just fixed.” Five stated, even more confused on how the conversation has been side tracked from the original topic.
“Not exactly, commission would stop at nothing to cause the apocalypse. Every time you make a fix they’ll puncture a new hole.” Hazel explained, sighing to himself knowing that what what he’s about to say could rile up Five “We still need to get rid of Harold Jenkins. with the additional order to kill Y/N Hargreeves and protect you.”
Five suddenly looks at you before looking back at Hazel. The statement made your stomach drop, you knew people would be out to get you but actually hearing it made you feel weak. Five took notice of this and tightened his arm around your waist, giving it a gentle squeeze to provide reassurance.
“Do you know why they chose Y/N?” Five questioned but the disappointing look Hazel had was an answer in itself. The man looks down slowly shakes his head earning a a nod from the boy in front of him. “It’s ok, we’ll figure things out.”
Five eyes aimlessly dart around the floor as he ponders his thoughts before looking up at hazel with eyes sodden. “Thank you for doing this, Hazel.”
You examine the look on Five’s face and you could see how tired and grateful he is. Things were beginning to line up and you might actually have a chance at fixing this. You accompany them on their way out, thanking Hazel for his assistance.
You made your way back to Five only to find him with a drink in hand, which brings up the thought ‘is it coffee or alcohol?’. You made your way towards him, snaking your hands around his waist. “I know what you’re thinking and you’re wrong.”
“Doesn’t it make the most sense? They were told to protect me and destroy you.” Five states in a low tone, as if his mind has already been set. You sigh and tighten your arms around him.
“Killing yourself won’t stop commission from destroying the earth. They’re just gonna find a new way and if you’re not here by then, we don’t know what we’ll do.” Five faces you, still in your arms, he hugs you and rests his chin on your shoulder. He was beyond glad that you were here right now, he was getting tired and losing more people wasn’t something he needed right now.
His mind still clouded with so many things, a certain thought kept surfacing. He wanted to be strong about it and part of him had accepted that one day this will happen but it didn’t make it hurt any less. He was usually so composed and certain but being in the embrace of someone made it difficult to put up walls. Unable to hold back his emotions, tears began rolling down the boy’s face. “I lost Dolores..”
His statement caught you off guard, your heart dropping at his sentence. You knew how much Dolores meant to him, all those years in the apocalypse, she was the only one there. And even now you knew Dolores gave him peace of mind.
“Five.. I’m so sorry.” You gently rub his back in a circular motion to provide a sense of comfort, doing your best to be gentle. You could feel his tears soak into your shoulder and you can hear him sniffle and struggle to catch his breath. You had never seen Five like this, part of you wished he never had to feel this way. After nearly an hour, Five begins to calm down and he pulls away, turning to hide his face but you place your hand on his cheek, gesturing him to look at you.
He faced you with his head down and your heart broke at the sight of him. His hair is disheveled from stress, his entire posture was hunched over from fatigued, his eyes swollen from all those tears, his nose was red, and his face was puffy from crying. You gently run your thumb over the dried tear stain on his cheep, hoping that you could just take all his pain away.
“Let’s get you to bed, Five.” You instruct him gently but you could tell there was resistance in him. Five hasn’t had any good sleep since that time he was shot and nearly died from blood loss. “Five, you can’t work in your condition right now. We’ll take a four hour nap and we can figure this whole thing out after.”
“How can I protect you if I’m asleep?” He stated, it came out as a compromise rather than a question but you brushed it off, knowing how tired he must be right now.
You assist him to his feet and held him by his arm, treating him like he was glass. Right now, Five is tired and needed just a little bit of care. You place a kiss on his cheek as comfort before looking at those green eyes that were staring back at you. “I’ll be right there with you, no one’s gonna take me away.”
You were able to walk him up his room and you two change into the assigned academy pajamas, you lead him to bed and he opens his arms for you and you place yourself in his arms. Being held by Five while snuggling into his chest was the most peace you’ve had in weeks but you could only wonder if he found comfort in it as well. You look up in hopes to ask but found that he had fallen asleep immediately.
Five was fatigued and losing Dolores wasn’t any help in his current state but he’s be lying if he said having you there didn’t help him at all. The feeling of your warmth in his arms and your gentle breathing was enough to lull him right into sleep. Right now, he’s glad to have you more than anything

So Different
A/N: Hey guys, I just want to apologize since I noticed that I had mistakenly forgot to hyperlink the next chapters since chapter 25.
Also, good news - bad news. Recently I have finally gotten into college and classes have been treating me kindly but that wasn’t enough to give me the time of day so I may take a hiatus on my writing or update it much much slower than before.
Sorry for the disappointing update but I still want to thank you all for the love and support that boosted the story to get this far.

Tumblr media
Five laid on the academy’s marbled floor with you resting on his chest, his eyes stared into the ceiling. He was still in shock of the state he’s in, it all felt like a distant fantasy he would never dare dream of yet here he is. He looked back on how this all came to be and there was this nagging feeling of guilt that it took a death threat for him to confess, it almost made him want to thank the handler for snapping some sense into him but all that faded when he felt you shift on his chest.
His eyes looked down to see the top of your head, a mantra of ‘she’s finally mine’ was running through his head and he couldn’t seem to believe it. He gently runs his fingers through your hair earning a hum in response that made him freeze. You look up at him, wondering why he suddenly stopped and he raises his head to look at you.
“Are you really mine now?” Five said, his voice genuine and there was expectation as if you hadn’t just said that you loved him.
You gently smiled at him, you knew that he wasn’t certain with himself in the romance department the man was married to a mannequin for gods sake but you felt like you knew him and he knew you. “Yes Five, you’re mine.”
“That’s good..” He dropped back his head, his hand moving from your hair to you your back as he made circles on them in a soothing manner. But before you could settle back into his chest and let the drowsy feeling take over you felt him pat you to get up. “I met the handler before coming here.”
After hearing his words, your eyes shot open, making you sit up from his chest. His previous state suddenly made sense and you wanted to be angry with him but you knew lashing out will only make it more difficult to get information out of the boy so you just sighed. You couldn’t believe that he would do that, just when you felt like he had began to trust you by sending you to get Vanya.
Five took immediate notice of your reaction, in fact, he had actually expected it and contemplated how he was going to handle the situation. He got up and offered a hand towards you. You turn to him when you felt the presence of his hand, taking it as he helped you up before leading you to the courtyard of the academy. “I didn’t tell you because I knew you would beg to come and I didn’t want you hurt and I know this is all crazy because we’ve only known each other for a week and a half but I couldn’t lose you. I’m sorry.”
It was a bit shocking hearing him lay everything to you straight rather than being careful with his words or contemplating his decisions. Not only that but Five just said sorry to you, that was something you didn’t expect to ever hear in your life or what’s left of it. You analyze his expression and you could see guilt lacing all over it and your heart sinks, of course you wanted to get mad but you knew exactly where he was coming from. You would charge head first into anything to save Five and your family. You sighed, walking over to him and pulling the boy into a hug. “I understand, I would’ve done the same. And you’re right, I would’ve found a way to go even if you told me to stay put.”
“You always were pretty stubborn and strong-willed.” Five responded and it was almost like you could hear the smile on his face. you playfully hit him, earning you an airy laugh from the boy. When you pull away, he cups your cheek with his hand and you could feel the coldness of it but it was comforting knowing that coldness is him. You saw that happiness fade as your eyes remained locked, it was like you could see the words of worry already spoken.
“Five, tell me what’s wrong.” You guided him, you know how everything must be so overwhelming for him. He’s been trying to save the world for two weeks and it was surprising that he hasn’t had a panic attack yet.
“The handler told me she sent men to kill you..” if he had spoken any softer it would’ve come out as a whisper. His voice was didn’t sound all consistent either, it would cut and you could tell he could barely verbalize his thoughts. “I immediately left and the thought of you-”
“Hey, I was able to handle it. I’m fine, you got me.” You cut him off knowing exactly what he was thinking but you were more than used to a couple injury here and there. He may have forgotten but you were trained in the Umbrella Academy as well, a little fight was nothing to fuss about.
“You know, your physical wellbeing was in a great state when I first met you.” He looks all over your body and you could feel his finger subconsciously trace over a particular rope burn on your wrist. He took note of each bruise, scar, and cut; some bandaged, some not. And you could just see the guilt in his eyes. 
You sighed knowing that he was blaming himself for every wound in your body. You never knew he was this much of a worry wart, you’re fine and alive in front of him and that’s all that should matter. “Five, I’m fine. In fact, I’m more than fine. When we were attacked, I was able to absorb Allison’s abilities and use it against the handler’s agents.”
He suddenly looks up at you, once carefully scanning over your cuts. Five was in shock, he was certain that you had extraordinary, but for you to be able to absorb a new power so soon was even more remarkable. You two continue to talk about the occurrence and you could see how proud he was as you told him about it. There was a smile on his face that he couldn’t stop while listening to you talk.

Figure it Out
A/N: Hey, I noticed that in the previous chapters/s (?) I wrote Mark instead of Jacob. Also, I just wanted to say sorry but I’m starting college soon so I might update slower now or take a full hiatus.
Also, good news - bad news. Recently I have finally gotten into college and classes have been treating me kindly but that wasn’t enough to give me the time of day so I may take a hiatus on my writing or update it much much slower than before.
Sorry for the disappointing update but I still want to thank you all for the love and support that boosted the story to get this far. But thank you all for giving so much love and support to me and my stories.

Chapter 15: Confrontations 
Your eyes flutter open to the sight of a grey ceiling, it was peaceful. The barely noticeable sound of the air conditioning and the occasional beeps of what you could only assume was your heart beat was enough to lull you back to bed and you did ponder on the thought but it also sunk in that you were in a hospital. You turn your head and saw locks of black hair resting next to your hip and only then did the feeling of warmth sink in.
“Aidan?-” You called out to him with a course voice, attempting to get up only to get a headache. Aidan suddenly shoots up, his eyes still a bit lidded from tiredness only to get up and ease you back into laying down with one hand. Only then did you realize that he had been holding your hand the whole time, even now that you were awake and looking at your clasped hands did you realize he was still holding on to it.
“Don’t try to get up, you should be resting.” Aidan says, fluffing your pillows and fixing the blanket that was resting on your lap, all while still holding on to your hand.
“What happened to me?” You asked him, remembering that you were suppose to do a shoot only for you to black out.
“You passed out during the shoot and we had to rush you to the hospital.” He responds with a worried expression looking like a puppy in the rain, the look on his face made you want to hug him and ruffle his soft lock. He then looks at you with furrowed brows making you take in a breath. “If you don’t mind me asking, did you.. drink? before the shoot?”
He asked, a hesitant and uncertain tone on the word ‘drink’. You sat there thinking and remembering you did take a couple sips to shake off that anxious feeling but you could hardly understand why he was asking this. “I- I did, how did you-”
“The doctor said you fainted from mixing medicine with alcohol, that combined with stress and flashing lights is what landed you here.” He cuts you off with nervousness in his voice but from his expression he almost looked mad. he then looks into your eyes his lips pursed and his expression tensed. “Now why would you do that Y/N? You know it’s not safe to mix those two and if you had taken a bit more you could’ve hurt yourself.”
You felt bad for worrying him but it was a bit of a shock that he was scolding you right now. He was always so patient and understanding and this was the first time you saw him angry and it was towards you. He then takes a deep breath and gets up, letting go of your hand. “I’ll let the nurse know you’re awake.”
You watched him walk away, still confused and a little bit hurt. Before you could ponder your thoughts Lindsay bursts into your room with tears streaming down her eyes and Jacob following close. She then throws herself at you, sobbing and crying out how worried she was for you and you couldn’t help the look on endearment on your face. Lindsay has been there for you from the very start and had helped you with every step of the way.
Jacob then walks over to rip the ginger off of you, telling her that she could be hurting you and you share a laughter before looking over to find the that green scrunchie on your wrist that you were certain wasn’t there before.
“Aidan took it with him when you were rushed here.” Jacob said plainly, as if it was a daily occurrence that he had grown accustom to but this was all new to you.
You looked up at him and muttered a hushed ‘what?’ to get a response. Jacob simply cleared his throat and fitted his hands into his pockets. “Aidan noticed that you lose your hair ties all the time and he began pointing it out so he makes it his job to give it back to you.”
“I don’t understand, why doesn’t he just hand it back to me?” You said, now tying your hair back with the familiar scrunchie while still immersing yourself in the conversation but Jacob only shrugged as a response.
A little later he came back in with a nurse nearby, his expression no longer angry rather it was stern. After a few exchanges you were leaving the hospital in better shape. When you reached the parking lot, Lindsay looked back at you with eyes still a bit puffy and her nose a bit red when she gives her good bye. But before you could ask her how she was going home a clear voice cut through. “I’ll drive Y/N, I’ll see you guys.”
With that said, Aidan slung a hand over your shoulder and assisted you to his car. You kept trying to look at him from the corner of your eye but you could still see that same expression from earlier. The air was thick and you could barely breathe but you tried to keep calm and just try and look at the scenery passing by.
“Can I take you to a field?” Aidan suddenly asked which surprised you because it came out of no where and you almost immediately said no but knowing how much he’s been there for you, you felt like it was safe with him even if he was mad so you just nodded.
You saw a sigh of relief in his face and you watched as the sky began to dim and the sun was about to sink, you didn’t know how long you were in the hospital but it was definitely too long. Soon enough he pulls over the beautiful open field and he opens the door for you and walk you to the middle of the field where you could feel the breeze and watch the sun set on his skin. You looked into his eyes and it was like you could see a storm brewing despite the clear skies around you.
“Aidan, you know I hate confrontations.” You said in a hushed tone, unsure of how he’ll respond.
“I know.” He responded, pursing his lips anxiously as he drops his view on the floor. You wanted to know what he was thinking of but there was that fear of not knowing what was coming so all you could do was brace for impact. “Can you please, just tell me what’s going on?”
The statement caught you off guard, leaving you stunned and only able to blink and let in a breath, muttering a nearly whispered ‘what’.
“A few days ago we were ok, I was finally getting close to you and I believed you were finally opening up to me. Now you’re putting yourself in such a bad state.” Aidan lashed out and you could feel the tears burning on the back of your eyes. 
You’ve never seen him this upset, you didn’t even know he felt like this. For the longest time you had put your feelings on hold and built a wall around your heart to protect him and your friendship, not seeing that he was doing his best to be honest. You were so scared of him knowing you failed to see that when he takes a step forward you move back.
“I’ve been trying to be open and not jump into conclusions, I was so sure that I was being careful to not hurt you but now it’s.. is it me?”
“Aidan, no. never.” You cut him off, you couldn’t believe he was even saying all this when all he did was try and try to get close to you when he was, he was always right there. You walk up to him and pull him in a hug, guiding to rest his head on your shoulder. “I’m sorry, Aidan. I never knew you felt that way.”
“I thought I was being so obvious, I just wanted to be closer to you y/n.” His voice was unstable and you can tell how strained his throat was, his eyes pressed on your shoulder and you could feel his warm tears through the fabric of your shirt.
“I’m so sorry, I made it so difficult for you because..” You bit your tongue for a moment. You knew Aidan was kind and that he would never do anything to hurt you or anyone for that matter but, the words that were about to come after could change everything.
For a moment, you took a breath and decided. Aidan has done everything for you and he made things so easy, spending time with him, those late night talks, fun dates, and even now he was here. For once you wanted to return the favor even if it meant possibly losing him. You grip your hands and your heart braces. “Because I’ve been in love with you for so long now.”

Figure it Out
A/N: Hey everyone, I was editing this when I found that there’s no tag list and I’m so sorry but it appears that I forgot so if u want to be tagged in the next chapter, please comment down and I’ll add you guys!
Also, this chapter is a bit inspired by a scene in Mamma Mia, which is currently my comfort movie.
Also, little psa: the characters in this story is 18+ which excuses the consumption of alcohol but I do not encourage reckless drinking.

Chapter 14: Voulez-Vous
You’re a coward
That’s just it, after your little moment with Aidan in the parking lot, your mind was able to catch up and you had no idea what he meant. But that wasn’t even the worse part. You still remember how everything had played out...
It was nearly the evening and you had just finished with your evening routine. You looked back at the evening before and remember how much fun you had when you get a text from Lindsay asking to call. You accepted the offer and greeted her with excitement, thinking that she was just going to tell you something that had happened to her recently like she usually does.
“Hey Lindsay, I just finished taking a shower. What’s up?” You said, waiting for an upbeat response but, unfortunately, you received a grim tone from her.
“Y/N, Mark told Aidan about your feelings. I don’t know where he got it from but-” She went on with the details such as how Mark had called her apologizing for telling Aidan something he probably wasn’t even suppose to find out. He reasoned that it was ‘heat of the moment’ thing and that he tried to play it off as a joke. But nothing Lindsay was saying was registering in your head, all you could think of was ‘Aidan knows’ and it was enough to throw you off.
You woke that morning with a headache from tossing and turning all night. It almost felt impossible to get up that morning but you took some medicine and went on your way. But the thought of having to face the boy and not knowing how to act was enough to throw you off your focus.
Aidan was shooting his scene with Lindsay and you tried to suck it up and learn your lines, you’re an actress and it’s your job to deliver a scene that people would pay for. You can’t let your personal issues get caught with work so you’ll have to figure it out a little later. Feeling a little anxious you grab the flask you absent mindedly packed earlier and took a swig from it.
“Ok, that’s good. Everyone get ready for the next scene, we’re gonna do the scene with Aidan and Y/N.” The director called loudly and everyone began preparing for the next shoot and you watched as Aidan make his way to you.
“Hey, ready for our big scene?” Aidan asked and you could only nod in response. After what happened that night, you weren’t certain where you stood with him. On the other hand, Aidan was acting the exact same so you figured you’d just do so as well so you nodded and tried to get walk away but you were quickly pulled back to face him. “You look pale, what’s wrong?”
“Nothing, I can act.” You response came out a bit too quickly, cutting him off a bit as if you already had a response before he even asked a question. This threw him off, you were acting odd and he could tell but instead of clearing things up you pulled away and made your wat to the studio for the scene.
When you managed to walk away from him, your headache came back like a drum beat. Your hand coming up to the side of your head in hopes to massage the pain away. When You entered the scene, you found that it was a dim room and a few strobe lights to mimic a party but being in it made your headache worse. The director had you and Aidan stand in the middle with a bunch of extras around the scene, dancing a bit too close, bumping into the both of you a bit and soon enough the cameras were rolling.
“You know parties didn’t really seem like your thing.” Aidan said, the line being a bit too familiar to you as the lights surrounds the both you. You watched the light shift it’s color and patter all over him making it difficult to look at him at all.
“I always wanted to go, I was just never invited.” You responded a bit late since the strobe lights in the darkened room was making your headache worse as you tried to blink away the neon in your eyes.
Aidan then moves closer and places his hand on the back of your neck. It caught you off guard since that was never in the script but you noticed how your head was moving around to avoid the light and the gesture helped steady you but then he got closer. “Are you ok?”
The question barely registered in your end because everything was becoming blurry and your vision was getting darker. Aidan then removes his hand from your nape and began holding you y the side of your arm and looking worriedly into your eyes. 
“Hey.. hey, what’s going on? tell me.” At this point even you weren’t certain if those were the lines of the scene, you were supposed to respond with ‘just gravy’ like in the script. The words were already sitting at the tip of your tongue but you felt dizzy and everything around you felt suffocating as the knocking headache became more prominent.
It was like the room was spinning around you and you couldn’t even catch your breath and the lights felt like beating drums, you felt nauseous and just standing there felt painful and in a split second your vision went dark and you felt yourself collide with the ground before passing out

Tumblr media
You sat on the floor with your eyes closed and fingers combing Five’s hair. After seeing him in Klaus’ arms when you went down stairs you took him, resting his head on your lap and just letting him go limp on the floor. His breathing was more natural and he looked at peace right now compared to his previously agitated appearance.
“Y/N, that really is you.” Five said in a low voice that almost came out as a whisper, the silent room made it possible to hear and you responded with a hum. Your eyes opened lazily and you saw those green eyes staring right at you.
Five weakly raises his arm, still feeling heavy from the sudden fatigue that was crashing on his body. Now that the adrenaline has settled, he felt tired from the impossible speed he was going at earlier. But none of that mattered when he felt the soft skin of you cheek touch his palm. A bit drunk on the moment he lets out a breathy laugh before resting a smile on his lips. You were safe and he was taking that in.
You weren’t in shock towards his actions either, it felt natural and you found yourself relaxing into the touch. you placed your hand on top of his. This type of contact that seemed so impossible was now normal between you two. Although you never admitted it to yourself because you felt so preoccupied, this little moment you admitted to yourself that you’ve fallen for Five and it didn’t matter if he didn’t feel the same way, you just wanted to be there for him. “Five, back then you said I was important to you and I-”
“I don’t want to lose you.” Five suddenly said catching you off guard, you looked down to see a single tear rolled out of his closed eyes and there was a pained expression on his face. You moved slowly, letting go of his hand and softly wiping the tear that was running on his cheek.
“I’m here.” You said gently, you weren’t sure where this was coming from but you didn’t feel like you had to because you heard him. Just then he opens his eyes and he gazes into yours before more tears began pouring and he quickly sits himself up. You move towards him, wrapping your hands around his waist and pressing your cheek against his back.
You are here and he knows that but it didn’t stop the tears that was uncontrollably running down his face because just now, at this very moment, he realized he had let his guard down and fell in love with you and that scared him. He’s never loved anyone like this, he had Dolores but he was never worried that Dolores would be hunted down like you are now. He had so much feelings and no idea what to do with it.
If he tells you, commission will use you to get to him but if he doesn’t he could lose you without ever letting you know how much he wanted to hold you close and comb your hair and stare into those eyes that held the universe. He turns to you with tears still coming out of his eyes and an uncertain expression on his face.
“Y/N, I don’t know what to do. There’s just so much in me and I don’t know what to do with it.” Five said in a low tone, his voice cracking and a look of defeat on him face that broke your heart into a million pieces. Although he didn’t say exactly, you knew that his feelings was overwhelming him, you could tell.
You took his hand and held it between both of yours before looking into his eyes. You said you’d be there for him and now you are. There’s a sense of confidence in you now that you were certain with where you stand with Five. With a gentle voice, you slightly leaned towards him. “You can tell me, you can give me whatever it is and I’ll take it.”
He saw the sincerity in your tone, which left him in wonder. He didn’t know how certain he was with himself, not when it came to you. You were the only one who’s ever been able to take own his walls and now that he was out in the open, he can’t bring himself to be brave. 
But when he looked at you the latter option became a blur and it left his heart racing and his breathing going heavy. He felt his heart drop and in a split second he presses his lips against yours.
The kiss was desperate but sweet. Your eyes closed, all you could feel was Five’s lips against yours. You felt his hands cup your cheeks before one makes its way down to your shoulder, his movements slow and hesitant. When you two pull away he rests his forehead against yours, the both of you catching your breath. His eyes flutter open and he gazes into yours with furrowed eyebrows and fear still in his eyes “Y/N, I love you.”
A giggle slips through your lips when you heard his sudden confession, and your lips curl into a shaky smile as you felt tears begin to form in your eyes. “I love you too.”
“You do?” Five asks, his voice still quivering and his question was genuine and you couldn’t help but throw yourself into his arms and he catches you.
“Of course I do, you big idiot. Couldn’t you tell from the start?” You cried into his shoulder and he just sat there with your chests pressed against each other and he swears he could feel your heart beat.
Although his decision seemed rushed, it was calculated. The equation was you, all he wanted was to have you. If he confessed people could use you to get to him but, if he doesn’t you’d never know. But that’s just it, bad things might happen either way. All he knew was, if it all goes south he would want to be with you even at the very last moment.
With a breathy laugh he pulls you impossibly closer. “Your idiot.”

Five made his way towards the door only to find that it was already opened. He wanders in and found the handler staring at the show that was playing on the TV with her back turned. “I don’t want to play mental gymnastics with you Five.”
“Good, I was hoping to quickly put a bullet in your head and be on my way.” Five responded, his eyes sneering daggers at the woman in front of him, earning a sigh of dismay that he found pleasure in knowing that he was poking at her short temperedness.
“I know you’ve read the books and done the math.” The Handler says as she waves Vanya’s second book before opening it to particular page that was already booked marked. “If I could look back at who was there for me the most, it must’ve been y/n. Her body wasn’t able to hold her full capacity leaving us without a body to bury, to this day I want to believe she just disappeared.”
Five stood there in pain of now knowing what that line meant. When he first read that in Vanya’s book he only assumed you were a friend who from a work related accident but knowing who you are now, the line haunts him and he could only dig his nails into his palms and purse his lips.
“Can we skip to the part where you tell me why you’re here.” Five cuts the silence, catching the surprised face of the handler after not getting a rise out of him out of that statement.
She clears her throat and drops the book before placing her hand on his shoulder, making him scrunch his face in distaste at the contact. “Do you know why you’re so drawn to y/n, Five?”
“I was hoping you would tell me.” Five says sarcastically, not giving her anything to work with. He didn’t know where she was going with this so he didn’t want to confirm nor deny that statement. 
“There’s a principle in time and space: the same matter cannot occupy the same space. And her being filled with your power, she’s capable to function when you weren’t around.” The Handler said, circling Five as she makes her statements. She smirks to herself when she earns a controlled sigh from the boy. “But now that you’re here, that matter in her will return to it’s original owner.”
“I’d be more amazed if I didn’t already know that.” He states cockily, knowing that he currently has the upper hand, if he plays his cards right he can get the handler to snap.
“So you’re aware that she’s suppose to be dead.” She states blankly catching the boy off guard. He was aware that commission was after him but not you, he didn’t see a single reason that they would come for you but his reaction exposed vulnerability that the handler quickly spots. “The reason you were so drawn to her because your body is physically reacting to your power that’s she’s holding. Think of a watermelon filled with metal, you being the magnet, it would shred her to pieces.”
Five stood there more confused in what the handler was trying to say, he’s been able to fix your power problem now that you found out about your real power so why was she still so certain of herself? She then turned to him with a smile.
“The day you came back, the portal you opened was basically a large magnet that was suppose to rip her into pieces but because of your miscalculation, she survived and that wasn’t suppose to happen.” She stated blandly, picking her book back up. “Five, I fully intend on getting rid of y/n. She was never supposed to make it this long.”
“None of them were. That’s why I’m here.” He responded, now fitting his hands into his pockets to hide his fidgeting fingers, a habit he has when thinking and now was not the time to show any weakness that the handler can use to her advantage.
“Well, that just my point isn’t it? You’re here.” The Handler said, putting an emphasis on that last word with a sadistic smirk curling on her lips as she held a cigarette on her lips.
Five’s eyes widen when he realized what she meant, the handler was just trying to distract him when she had already sent men to kill you. Immediately he sprints out of the room, his heart pounding in his ear as he quickly blinks out of the building. He had no way of contacting you and knowing that Allison was with you made it worse. By the time he arrived at the Academy, he was stumbling into the doors only to be caught by Klaus.
“Whoa, what’s wrong little man? Always in a hurry.” Klaus said, examining the boy in arms who was now covered in sweat with ragged breathing. The sight was concerning and the look of horror in his eyes wasn’t that reassuring either.
-
Meanwhile, the Handler was enjoying her cigarette when she hears the sound of a briefcase behind her only to find two of the men she sent standing before her with defeated looks on their faces and nothing to show for.
“Why are you here? Where’s the girl?” The Handler spoke, her voice stern. In that very moment, nothing the men could say would make the situation better. With only sorry looks on their faces, she grabs the glass and throws it against the wall before turning her back, contemplating on what to do next.
-
Back at the Academy, Five was still frantic in Klaus’ arms and as much as he wanted to get up and just tell everyone what happened, he was too tired and out of breath. All he could do was cling on to his brother’s arm and try and blink the sweat out of his eyes.
“Five? You’re back.” Your voice echoes through the halls as you made your way down the stairs to greet him, excited to tell him everything that had happened.
Suddenly, any tension from his body just disappears when he saw you on top of that staircase. He lets out a sigh of relief, letting a smile slip on his lips as his body goes limp in Klaus’ arms which caught the man off guard. As soon as you were close you crouch down to where Klaus, giving him a nod to let him hand the boy to you.
You gently rest Five’s head on your lap and soon enough you two were alone on the floor of the academy’s hallway. Five closed his eyes and you just let him, you don’t know where’s been or what he’s been up to the past few hours that you two were apart but right now you didn’t mind being calm and quiet with him like this.

Figure it out
Tumblr media
Chapter 13: Soda Run
You and Aidan managed to carry the same energy from the slumber party during the drive to the supermarket. You two jammed to music and shouted lyrics at the top of your lungs. The supermarket nearby was conveniently open 24/7 which favored your current soda run. 
As soon as you two arrived, the bright light of the market mildly blinded you before the air conditioned air hits you, making you shiver a bit despite already wearing a jacket. You two looked at each other before letting out a little giggle seeing that you were in your pajamas. Aidan quickly held your hand before walking towards where the soda would be, you watched as he lead you and occasionally look back with a smile on both of your faces.
Finally arriving at the drinks isle, Aidan looked back at you and he had an expression you couldn’t quite read. It was almost as if he was asking for permission to let go of your hand or he was waiting for you to grab one. You went with your instinct and grab a bottle and he mirrors your action by grabbing one with his free hand before walking to pay for the drinks.
After paying, you made your way to put them inside the car when Aidan suddenly pulled you and played music out in the open with his phone before fitting it into his pocket. You two danced around the empty parking lot, under the street light and a mild company of the moon. In the height of both of your laughter he pulls you in by your waist, both your faces still a bit flushed from the sudden burst of energy. He looked into you eyes with a smile on his face and you couldn’t help but smile back. 
“I-” He started but the silence hung on his parted lips that were still curved into a smile. “I’m really glad I met you and that we’re close like this.”
“Why are you getting all sentimental with me?” You asked with a bit of laughter slipping through, you couldn’t help but noticed the soft smile he was giving you and there was a sparkle in his eyes. You didn’t even want to think that the look in his eyes were romantic but just for now, just for this moment, you can let yourself like him.
You felt the cold wind envelope your body, making your legs feel numb but that hardly mattered when you could see every light those green eyes captures. His eyelashes was long enough to cast a shadow. Your adrenaline started to settle and you slowly started feeling every little thing: the warmth of his hand on your waist, his ragged but controlled breath that you could tell he was holding, how he pursed his trembling lips. 
Just then he leaned towards you but he hesitated, when he was inches away he pulled you into a tight hug. It caught you off guard but you hugged him back, there was something desperate about this action but you’ve been holding onto your words as well so you suppose it was only fair.
“Y/N, remember when we established rules about this dating thing?” Aidan said as he reached for your hand and pressed it against his cheek. “Can’t we just forget about that and enjoy who we are right now?”
His skin was cold against your palm but you didn’t pull away because the soft touch resting in your hand was from the boy you could only see through the screen the now here he is with hooded eyes, staring at you. His statement made your heart skip and something in you wanted to run away in fear but then he holds you closer and all your doubt just disappeared.
“Sure, I love being what we are too.”
At that moment he pulls away and gives you a smile before his eyes light up again before taping your nose “You’re it.”
Just then he runs the opposite direction, catching you off guard and in that moment you come to your senses and a smile surfaced before running after him. “That’s cheating!”

A/N: I did not expect this story to reach this much chapters. But thank you for the continuous support that you gave despite my sudden hiatus previously.
I love seeing you guys enjoy my works and hope you love the next chapters that are to come.

Tumblr media
“I heard a rumor!” On that moment you saw waves escape your lips and on that very moment they were still. You gather yourself and took a quick breath before continuing. “That you stopped.”
Your heart was beating in your ear and your face was still hot with tears when you felt yourself slowly placed down. You stumbled towards Allison to see if she was hurt, you helped her up by her elbow while looking up and down her body to make sure that she wasn’t hurt anywhere else.
Allison held you hand tightly as her face displayed a shocked and relieved expression. The both of you froze there for a moment before Allison reached into the car to write on her note pad ‘How did you do that?’
“I- I don’t know, I guess I absorbed your ability on the drive here and I just-” You were beginning to get sloppy with your words as the high from fear settled and adrenaline began rushing in from excitement. You ran you fingers through your hair for a second before looking back at Allison with both of you displaying a smile on your faces. “I did it.”
You looked back at the two men who was still frozen in their place, after making sure that Allison was alright you marched towards them as anger began seeping in now that the feeling or relief subsided.
“Why are you after me?” You raised your voice at them but they stood still. Feeling irritated, you grabbed one by their collar and pulling him to your eye level. “I heard a rumor, you told me your plan.”
But nothing happened, no waves slipped from your lips and the power surge was no longer there. You sighed to yourself before letting go, your fingers feeling sore from the tight grip before looking back at Allison hoping she could rumor them but she just shakes her head and you let out a sigh. You felt lost, not knowing what to do with the two who were just frozen in place but you couldn’t bring yourself to kill them.
Suddenly, you watched the effects of your rumor fade. Your fight or flight kicks in and you got ready to throw a punch but they just disappeared using their briefcase. You stagger back suddenly wishing that you had shot them but they weren’t your priority. You sighed to yourself before opening the trunk to find wheel replacements and quickly began your work with them.
Expectedly, your hands get dirty and parts of your body was bruising from dropping the wheel on yourself and even occasionally hitting yourself with the tools but the previous fight was the biggest factor to your beaten appearance. When you sat back onto the driver’s seat Allison looked at you with a concerned expression when she saw how dirty your clothes has gotten and the small cuts and bruises that began forming on your body but as you the adrenaline began settling the pain of each injury began more prominent and the pain was present which causes discomfort.
“Don’t worry about it, we’re not new to a few scratch of bruises.” You ensured her and she responded with a smile before starting the car. Soon enough you found yourself parked outside of the house where Leonard was supposedly keeping Vanya. You were quick to stop the car and knock on the door to save your sister but there was a gut trembling feeling of fear as well, Vanya has powers and as much as you trust her, you don’t know how much that monster of a man has manipulated your sister.
In the height of your anxiousness you felt Allison’s hand rest on top of yours making you look up to see her with furrowed eyebrows but she gave you soft smile, you smiled back at her before taking a deep breath now that you your head was more clear and certain in yourself. You’re gonna save your sister and that’s certain now and Allison shared your intention. You stepped out of the car and made your way to the door, you weren’t certain what would happen if Leonard was the one who will open the door but the thought wasn’t enough to stop your hand from ringing the doorbell.
Soon the door opens and you saw Vanya looking more tired than the last time you saw her. Her hair was a mess and there were bags under eyes, after what happened with Allison you could only imagine the guilt that’s been eating away at her the past few days.
“Eight, what are you doing here?” Vanya said with her voice shaking and you could pick up on a bit of her anxious mannerism and the fear in her tone. But before you could say anything Allison gently moves you to the side by your shoulder and you saw Vanya’s eyes widen. “Allison. I- you’re ok, I’m was so worried. I didn’t mean to, I wanted to call an ambulance but there was no- Allison, I-”
You could see your sister’s trembling frame. You could tell that she was relieved that Allison was ok but there was was uncertainty in seeing her standing before her, she wasn’t ready and she staggered back on her steps. But before she could even completely back away, Allison pulled her into a hug and tears fell down her eyes.
Vanya was surprised by the sudden contact but soon enough she melted into the embrace. Soon enough she was choking out apologies while crying into her sister’s shoulder and you couldn’t help but shed a tear as well knowing that Vanya is finally in safe hands. “You were right, you were right the whole time. Leonard lied to me, he had dad’s journal.”
And just like that, Vanya was seated beside you in the car and you were driving back to the academy. When you arrived, Vanya stepped in anxiously, since she knows she’s guilty and the academy was never a comforting environment. Just as she was about to turn and tell you that she would rather stay at a hotel or her apartment she heard a call.
“Vanya? You’re home.” The voice that called was so familiar to her but she found it impossible. Her eyes widen and her heart skips a thousand beats, her movement was cautious but when she turned to see Ben walking down the stairs towards her tears fell out her eyes again.
“Ben!” The two ran to each other and Ben caught her in an embrace before quickly pulling away to look him up and down. “I- I- don’t get it, how is this possible?”
“Klaus got clean and was finally able to manifest me.”
They continued to chat but decided to have that talk over a couple drinks now that he could actually grab and lift things and soon enough it was just you and Allison again. You looked at her and she had a cocky expression that read ‘I told you so’ all over it and you couldn’t do anything but laugh. “ok, you were right. I should’ve had more faith in us.”

Tumblr media
There was an anxious feeling that bubbled in your stomach as you drove but you felt Allison gently place her hand over yours that was tightly gripping the steering wheel. You stole a glance and saw her smiling at you and you relaxed a bit.
“I’m scared, Allison.” You told her while keeping your eyes in the road. “Last time we confronted her, you got hurt and I couldn’t do anything.”
You heard her sigh and that was enough for you to know that she was didn’t want you to blame yourself. You had grown up together and although none of you are related by blood, the bond was there and it was almost like you could read her mind.
You took a deep breath and tried to focus on the road but you found a pair of men suddenly appear before you, making you slam against the breaks. Before you could curse at them your eyes widen when you saw that their face hid behind animal shaped masks. Immediately you made a move to drive and run them over but they had jumped to the side as you charged at them in the vehicle. But they were just as stubborn as before and shot the wheels which eventually ended your travel. 
You’re tired, everyone’s tired for trying to save the whole world this entire time and now you had to get past these time police and save yourself before you could save anyone else. In the peak of your frustration you began screaming and banging the steering wheel, throwing a full tantrum as the two men approached you. When you finally managed to get a grip you opened the glove compartment and pulled out a gun that Five had kept there for quite some time now but it only had six bullets.
“Allison, stay here, I’ll deal with them.” You reassured her before stepping out of the car with a pistol held tightly in your hand. You took a deep breath before slowly walking towards them.
“It’s me you want, right?” You said loudly in hopes that this would make them drop their weapons but they maintained their stance with their guns pointed right at you. You could feel a lump on your throat as a uncertainty crawls up your back. “I’ll do what you want.”
“You see the thing is.. we want you dead.” Your eyes widen at their statement, out of instinct, you were able to dodge their bullets but it wasn’t enough for you to have a clear vision of how this interaction would end. You quickly charged at them, firing a bullet that hits one of their knees.
5
You watched as the man collapse to the floor but his partner didn’t seem to be concerned by his partner’s state, they were both dead set on killing you. You charge at the other one but it was a bit too late, he had fired the bullet and you watched it hurl towards you. It was as if time slowed down as you watched the bullet approach. It was certain that it would hit you square in the head. 
With every bit of strength in your body you tried to speed up your pace and with close eyes you. . .
blink
You heard your own heavy breathing in your ear and the sound of a bullet colliding with the metal dumpster behind you. You open your eyes in shock to find that you were to get out of that situation unscathed, seeing that you were gone from the position you were you looked back to see Allison just as shocked as you are.
You smile as the entire battlefield shifted to your favor. There was a smirk on your face, feeling cocky. As they continued to fire you blinked away from the trail of the bullet, you could only blink in short distances but even that was enough for you to close in on them. Once you were close enough you hit one over the head with the back of your bullet before shooting his hand

“Why did they send you?” You yelled as you pinned him down to the floor. “Why am I a threat to the timeline?”
Before he could even answer you were pulled to the ground by the other man. You back hits the floor, feeling  the blood rush to your head from the sudden collision. You let out a grunt as a sudden dark color clouds your eyes, you blindly pointed your gun and fired. As soon as your eyes begin to clear out you fire your gun, hitting the man on the shoulder.
3
As soon as the grip against your shoulder was gone, you scrambled to get up and regain your composure. The two of them gave each other a look, before you could even think of what they had planned, you watched as one charged directly at you and the other made a quick moves towards the car where you knew Allison was.
“No!” You yelled as he passes you but before you could stop him your once again get held back by the other man. In a panic, you messily shoot the gun to stop him from reaching Allison but your hands were shaky and your nerve got the best of you.

1
Both your bullets missed and you found yourself desperately pulling on the trigger only to hear the empty clicks of the gun. You turn to repeatedly hit the man with the empty weapon on your hand but the man didn’t even budge. You looked back to see that the man had already pulled Allison out of the car and tears began brimming in your eyes.
Genuine fear surged through your nerves and you couldn’t bring yourself to do anything. The man slowly pulled his gun from his side and points at your sister’s head while she struggled to break free. Normally, she would be able to beat him up but she was still recovering from the anesthesia and fighting could open her wound again. You were stuck and forced to watch Allison panic under the man’s grip.
You felt a strong stream like flow from the back of your head and a strain on the back of your throat, you were desperate, you were scared and you wanted to scream but there was only strain in your throat. In the moment of absolute tension you felt a string of energy out of your voice and. . .

Figure it out
A/N: Sorry this took so long to update :( I’ve been working on a different fanfic so this one has been drafted for a while. But I’m back now and here’s an update
Also, I completely lost track of the tag lists (I’m so sorry) so please just comment down if u want to be tagged.
Enjoy!
Tumblr media
Chapter 12: Slumber Party
You two found yourselves seated on the sofa once again, a movie that was once your interest is now playing behind the conversation you two were having. A few laughter had been shared a couple jokes were thrown around. When the laughter died down you fell in a comfortable silence. Your eyes caught the clock on the far side of the room and you found that it was getting pretty late so you decide to nudge the boy in front of you.
“It’s getting late Aidan, it’ll be a tiring drive home if you don’t start moving.” You said but there was a sad expression on your face, you didn’t want him to leave any time soon since you genuinely enjoyed his company but having him stay so late would be terrible for him.
He looks at you with a soft expression before reaching for your cheek and giving you a soft smile that made your hear skip a beat. “Do you really want me to go? Because your frown is making it really difficult to leave.”
You giggle at his remark, not really making a move to get up or have him leave. He suddenly looks at you and it was as if you could see the lightbulb sprout from the top of his head. “What if I sleep over? I mean, it’s way to late to drive and I live so far away.”
“Aidan, you know you’re not allowed to do that.” You giggled at him but he was resilient and decided to gently reach for your hand with the wide smile present on his face.
“What if we invite the others? Like a big slumber party!” He suggested and it made your face light up as well. You were always too busy to do anything so having the cast around to just hang out and sleep over like normal kids made you feel a rush of childishness. You nodded and began texting in the cats group chat, calling the other two over. You got up to drag down the large foam from your room with Aidan’s help before placing it in the living room with the couch closely touching each side of the foam. You gathered the chips that you two had bought earlier and messily placed it on the coffee table before grabbing two cups and the soda that you chilled in the fridge before hand.
As you two messily set up the living room into your own little hang out den, you couldn’t help but steal a few photos and he did the same. Soon enough you heard a knock on the door, expecting to see Lindsay and Jacob, you let them in and found that they were already in their pajamas and carrying their own pillow.
“Excuse me, I thought this was a slumber party.” Jacob says in a teasing tone making you look down at your own clothes only to find that you were still in your “work clothes” you giggled before leading them to the living room where Aidan was playing music and dancing around.
“Aw yeah, dance party!” Jacob cheered before hopping towards where Aidan was standing and busting out the funniest dances making both you and Lindsay giggle among yourselves.
“You’re gonna be knocked out in 2 hours if you keep that up.” Lindsay said through her laughter before walking towards the sofa to place down her pillow and blanket.
“Well, I need to get changed into my pajamas so we can get this started.” You said as you made a step to go to your bedroom but being the good hostess you are, you looked back at Aidan and offered if he wanted to borrow some clothes to which he happily accepts.
You run up to switch into something more comfortable before grabbing a pair for Aidan. When you walked back to the living room you handed the outfit to him, He smiles at you before making his way to change into the pajamas you handed. You looked back to see Jacob and Lindsay smirking at you.
“Why are you guys looking at me like that?” You asked, genuinely confused by the expression they had plastered on their faces.
“Aidan seems to really know his way around your house.” Jacob teases, placing an emphasis on the word ‘really’ with Lindsay wiggling her eyebrows at you.
Your face heated up in embarrassment and you let out a giggle of nervousness. You tried to brush off their teasing. “It’s nothing like that, he’s been over twice so he knows his way around.”
“oh? Twice you say?” Lindsay sang poking at your sides a bit making you giggle under her tickles. She suddenly pulls you into a hug while still laughing, you watched as Jaocb jokingly joined on only for Lindsay to push him away in a fit of laughter.
As soon as Aidan came back dressed in the clothes you lent him, you grabbed that board and card games that you had and the ones that Lindsay and Jacob brought with them before deciding to play each game. A number of jokes and were exchange along with playful threats, victories would be celebrated and losers were forced to eat a teaspoon of just mustard.
Soon enough you brought in the snacks that was immediately met with pairs of hungry hands. Truth or dare came along and confessions slipped out while dares would end in either shared disgusted expressions or laughter.
You took a second to look around to see the smiling faces of your friends. For the longest time, your apartment had always felt so empty and having Lindsay around would always be something you would look forward to but now here you are having a slumber party with some of the greatest people you have ever met.
“We’re out of soda.” Jacob complained as he held the empty bottle in one hand a half filled glass on the other.
“Maybe we wouldn’t run out so quickly if you didn’t drink 5 glasses the past hour.” Aidan jokes making Jacob reach over and lift the boy and throw him over his shoulder.
“It’s ok, I can go buy some more.” You said before making a move to grab your jacket. It was super late so going the the market wearing pajamas wasn’t something that bothered you.
Everyone slowly began to settle down. Aidan patted Jacob’s back to let him down while saying a soft ‘put me down’ before landing on his feet. He turns to grab his keys, spinning it on his finger. “I’ll come with you”

So Different
Chapter 19 | Alternate Ending
You were starting to understand why he had made you lay next to him and you were trying your best to naturally absorb his power. Soon, you could feel a smooth flow in your body. It was as if the energy in you veins were returning to Five and you were absorbing new ones, like a natural water cycle. Up to this point, using your ability felt like abuse. It left you tired, beaten, and in immense amount of pain like it didn’t feel right. But now, it felt like slow running water that was cooling your body.
“You know, I think I did read about you in Vanya’s book.” Five interrupts the silence but you were in such a state of peace that your eyes had closed and all you could do was hum in response. You could feel his heart beat pick up in tempo which made you a bit worried about what he was about to say next. He took a deep breath before clearing his throat and continuing.  “She talked about a friend that wanted to remain anonymous.”
You smiled a bit, knowing that it was you. She had told you about publishing her story and you begged her not to put your name in it. With a smile, she agreed and published the book without mentioning your name once according to her. “You found Vanya’s book in the apocalypse?”
“Both of them actually.” You opened your eyes for a second to look at him. Vanya only had one book released so how could he have two? Then the idea of her writing another one and publishing it in the future came to mind. You wanted to ask Five about it but you were slow to your words and he managed to talk over you. “I think you died in the sequel...”

Tumblr media
Five had pulled you into his bedroom before digging around for a plain piece of paper. You could only assume that he was setting his plan in motion since he was never the type to take his time, not that you had much left before the apocalypse anyway. You trusted him since he looked pretty confident from his little encounter from the diner, there was always a thought running through that boy’s head. You watched him scribble down something before handing it to you.
“Listen, I can’t do this on my own. I need everyone to do something separately and I can’t trust anyone else but you and our idiot siblings.” He said with sincerity in his eyes and you could only take in so much of what’s happening before nodding to him. There was a smile on his face when you nodded, you swore you saw it and if you had blinked you would’ve missed it. He then proceeded to explain what he had in mind. “This is where I predicted Harold Jenkins would go after the fiasco at the cabin. I know you can talk to Vanya but, take Allison with you.”
“Allison just began to recover and she can’t even speak, I can’t have her seeing Vanya it’ll be bad for both of them.” You reasoned out but you could see the mild panic in Five’s eyes. He had began telling you it’s dangerous to go alone and that dealing with this on your own will only make things harder.
“Y/N, listen to me. We need each other now, more than ever. With your ability and Allison’s rumor, you can take Harold down without having to fight.” Five explained. You didn’t want to agree, Allison was in no shape to fight but with your new found ability you can absorb her rumor when worse comes to worse.
Five wasn’t entirely sure of his decision, he didn’t want to leave you alone while commission is trying to hunt you down but as of now, he didn’t entirely have a choice. He had to deal with a higher threat and get an advantage of the situation and this was the best he could do. He looks at you one last time before pulling you into a hug. He could brush it off and say that he’s cycling the energy but there was no exchange occurring and there was a desperate grip in that hug. On the other hand, you hugged him back. You felt that he was desperate and you knew it must be hard for him to send you off on your own. After your little moment when he said he cared about you, you understood that his words were sincere.
“Five, you know I don’t want to go.” You whispered as your hand made it’s way to run through his hair, you wanted to hold him like this and always have him by your side. You knew that he knew it dangerous for you to go out but you understood that now’s the time to be critical and take action while they still have the upper hand.
You two pull away from each other but your hands lingered in each other’s touch as you walked away. Just then he heard the familiar sound, a capsule going through a tube. When he saw you go to call Allison he walked towards the sound to find a message, inside was a note that said:
“a miscalculation can mess up an equation.”
Five threw the container across the room in anger. Just then he dug his pocket to find the piece of candy he had taken from the handler’s office was a tracking device. He crushed the item and pocketed the note before heading to Diego’s room to find everyone had gathered there. “Good, everyone’s here.”
“Why did you gather us here?” Ben asked, with his hands in his pockets and sincere curiosity lacing his tone. He looks at Five and notices he’s alone which rose another question. “and where’s Eight?”
“She left to pick up Vanya.” Five stated with a stable tone that was masking his hurt and worry of sending you off.
“On her own?” Klaus added, clearly concerned for your well being. After announcing that commission has you on their target list, everyone has been a little on edge so hearing about you going on a mission on your own didn’t sound so rational to them.
“She brought Allison with her.” Five retaliated, knowing that this would send Luther into a tantrum.
Just as Five predicted, Luther got up from his seat like a raging bull with anger prominent in his very being. “What?
“Listen to me, dickhead. This is a critical plan that could save the world, our every move has to be right and there is no time for compromise.” Five said with a stern but pissed tone. Immediately, Luther found himself sitting back down and everyone settled to hear what the boy had to say next. “This is how it’s gonna go, I recently found out that Hazel has been giving moon dog eyes towards a little someone. We’ll use her as hostage to get him to talk.”
“But that’s illegal.” Luther stated, clearly confused by the statement. He had always maintained the moral figure of the team, he was number one and he had to be the perfect leader and always know right from wrong. This trait unfortunately stuck with him but left Five years ago.
“We’re trying to save the world here, there’s no time to contemplate with your moral compass.” Five replied with venom in his words. He had always hated how Luther had to act like he was the perfect model citizen in order to gain Reginald’s affection that they never received. He brushed off the comment and proceeded with the rest. 
“Luther and Diego will get the girl. Klaus, Ben, I need you two to watch the house while I’m gone.” Five said in a rush and before anyone could even complain he turned to leave the room, not wanting to hear nor deal with their reasons when he had a larger task to handle
“Wait, where are you going?” Klaus asked but Five didn’t even bother to look back.
“Out.” He replied without even looking back before slamming the door behind him.

Figure it Out
A/N: Hey! I know it’s been a while and I haven’t been updating but I finally got the chapter out.
It’s officially summer for me so I’ll be able to spend more time with my leisurely activities such as writing so, Have fun y’all! 
Pairing: Aidan Gallagher x Reader
Tumblr media
Chapter 11: Pasta Date
To say you were amazed is an understatement. Somehow, as soon as the shoot finished, Aidan was full of energy and was bouncing all over the set. You were pretty sure that he was already drained of any energy so you were starting to consider just making him go home and rest but the moment you two were done with taping he grabbed your wrist and pulled you to the front seat of his car. You watched him drive with a smile on his face as ‘why Georgia’ plays from the aux cord of his phone.
This very moment felt like dream to you, it was like the world had a warm yellow filter and everything was bright. You watched as the perfect golden hour sun reflects on his skin as he sits on that driver’s seat. He looked perfect in every way and you couldn’t help but take a picture but the sound was up so he heard the clicking.
“Did you just take a picture of me?” Aidan asked with a bit of a chuckle in his vocabulary, making him steal a quick glance at you with a smile still on his face. You felt comfortable around him, you use to be so stiff and cautious when he’s around. But now here he was, right next to you and everything felt warm.
You two finally parked at a grocery parking lot before stepping out of the car. When you two entered, he was eager to push the cart and you just let him. First was - obviously - the pasta, so you go down to the isle and began scanning your options, being careful not to pick up anything that used animal products. As you walked down to get some sauce you watched him bolt to a different direction, leaving you stunned in the middle of the grocery. 
“Aidan?” you called out to him with curiosity in your voice and soon you saw him coming out from around the corner with a bunch of chips and soda in his hands with the biggest smile on his face.
“Look, they’re 30% off and vegan. Let’s try em when we get to your place.” He said enthusiastically and you couldn’t help but laugh at how goofy he was acting. For a moment you felt like the two of you were just normal teenagers going around a grocery store, having fun. Soon enough you finished up shopping stole the bill from each other and loaded it up into his car before driving to your apartment. Upon arrival, you helped him get the grocery out of his trunk and onto the kitchen counter.
You watched as he rolls his sleeves and washes his hands, you had no idea what he could possibly be up to. He looks back at you with a straight face before asking where the pots and pans are, you point to a cabinet and he quickly made his way there and pulls out a pot and a pan. “I’ll do the cooking, just sit back and watch.”
You let out a giggle as he began lacing the apron that he had managed to slip into. You watched as he skillfully preparing the meal, noticing that there was a bit of a hop in his movement and he was humming a familiar tone. He was so focused in what he was doing that he was shocked when he heard you play music from your speaker. He smiles back at you and extends his hand for you to take.
You got up from your seat and place your hand into his and he pulls you in, a large grin plastered on both of your faces and dancing around the kitchen while laughing at each other’s silly dance steps. In the peak of your laughter you point out how the pot was about to boil over and he rushes to turn down the heat. He makes quick movements and soon enough he turns to you with a fork full of pasta. 
“Try it.” He offered which you gladly accepted, you took the fork from his hand and gently blew the pasta before eating it.
“Now that’s a winner pasta.” You complimented him before moving to set the table for dinner.
Soon enough, you two found yourselves seated on your table. There was no silence between the two of you as you ate and conversed. He brought up how he dreaded school and you couldn’t help but smile at how normal and natural it felt to be with him. You didn’t feel like you were with some huge star or a literal child ambassador, with him you just felt like the teenager you are and it was almost like you were already in a movie.
“Y/N?” He called out to you which interrupted your train of thought, you felt a sense of embarrassment bubble inside you when you realized that you were staring. You wiped your face and cleared your throat to hopefully save yourself but before you could fumble up an excuse you heard him chuckle across the table. After his little laugh he rests with a smile. “You’re amazing, Y/N.”
Your eyebrow furrows un confusion, you weren’t certain what he meant or why he felt the need to say that. Here you are, awkwardly messing up your words and fidgeting your hands, quite possibly looking the dorkiest you’ve ever been and he calls you amazing. “What do you mean?”
He rests his cheeks in his palm as his elbow leans on the table and you just sat there as his line of view.

Anxious
It’s what best describes how he currently feels as he walks into the dinner with Hazel less that 6 feet away from him. Everything has been such a mess and his mind has been all over the place. Having to face Hazel was something he didn’t have in his agenda but if it mean eliminating a threat and getting revenge for stabbing you then he’s more than most likely willing to take on the task.
He found that he was seated by the counter so Five made his move and sat a couple seats down from where hazel was. Not too close that he would be recognized but close enough so he could keep an eye on him. He ruffled his hair a bit in hopes that he wouldn’t get recognized and give away his identity.
“What can I get you?” The Lady, same from the night of the incident, asked him with a smile on her face.
“Coff-” He was always so certain of what to get, but that particular order might bring back a memory he was hoping would stay suppressed in this lady’s head. “I’ll have 2 doughnuts to go and a soda please.”
She smiled at him and walked away with his order in mind. He hadn’t really thought through how he was going to do this which resulted in him being unable to sit idly on his chair. His eyes are batting everywhere and his caution was becoming present in his expression.
“So, about that order?” Her voice cuts through all the clatter in the dinner making Five look over to find that she was talking to Hazel. Now, Five was no romancer but when he saw the expression on Hazel’s face when she spoke to him was a dead give away. He liked her.
A cheeky grin found its way to his face when an opportunity falls on his lap so easily. Everything had been spiraling into absolute chaos but with this little advantage felt like an energy surge on its own. Trying to maintain his posture, he hunches over the counter in front of him to hear the rest of their conversation.
“I know I’m about to do the right thing but it still feels like I’m betraying myself.” Hazel’s tone was soft, he almost sounded defeated as he takes another bite of his doughnut.
“Well, doing the right thing isn’t always the best feeling at first.” The lady in pink reassured, her voice soft and gentle. Five watched a genuine light of hope reflect in Hazel’s eyes and his heart sank.
He knew they were sent to protect Harold Jenkins, but after your vision, Five wasn’t so sure what he was going to do. But now He had a solid plan and it involves today’s discovery. After their little conversation, she finally gave Five his order and he took the bag before walking back into the car with a skip in his step. Could you blame him? He was excited, there was a sense of thrill now that he had a plan cooking up in that psychotic brain of his.
But that cocky grin was wiped clean off his face when he saw you curling into his jacket. Your hands were holding the coat up to your face, you were anxious with Five facing Hazel since the last time he decided to fight them he ended up back in the commission headquarters.
Five on the other hand, no longer finds the sight of you hilarious instead, there was a gentle smile that creeped into his face when he realized that you were anxiously waiting for him to come back. He gently made his way to the car to not startle you.
“Five, you’re back.” You said gently and he admired the sight of your expression go from worry to relief and there was a sense of pride in him knowing that he was the reason for your relief.
“Yeah, I even got us a snack and a plan.” He bragged as he stepped into the passenger’s seat. Just as he was about to grab a doughnut, he felt a a burning gaze towards him. Without looking he lets out a sigh knowing that you were staring directly at him. “Staring at me won’t give you X-ray vision, you need to absorb it from someone else.”
“You were smiling just now.” You stated as a cheeky grin began to creep on your face when you saw him a bit shocked and caught off guard. He cleared his throat in hopes to shake your accusation.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” He calmly stated before taking a bite out of the sugary snack in front of him but that didn’t exactly throw you off in fact, it encouraged you to pry even further.
“You were definitely smiling just now, and not like a smug look just.. genuine.” You said and there was a warm and fuzzy feeling in you. You two were talking like you’re just normal people rather than saving the world or killing someone. It felt light. You noticed a dust or red creeping on his cheeks since he was embarrassed. He was being picked on and teased by a girl and he was losing, he knew he could say something to shut you up but there was nothing coming to mind.
Feeling victorious, you start the car and begin driving back to the academy.
