𝐘/𝐍 𝐖𝐀𝐒 𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐋𝐋 𝐒𝐇𝐎𝐂𝐊𝐄𝐃 𝐁𝐘 𝐖𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐇𝐀𝐏𝐏𝐄𝐍𝐄𝐃 𝐓𝐎𝐍𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓 so she didn't quite understand what he was referring to instantly. "What? What do you mean?"
"I saw that the swede talked to you about something. What did he say?" Five took her by her shoulders and stared at her.
"Five, I don't know what you're talking about-"
"I'm not an idiot, Y/n!" Five yelled out of frustration clutching Y/n's shoulders tight.
"Five, please, you're hurting me-" Y/n tried to get herself out of his grip.
"What did he say to-"
"Hey! Hey! Hey!" Diego shoved Five away from Y/n and tore them apart standing in the middle between them. Y/n looked at Five tears starting to form in her eyes while Five just sighed and scoffed. "Calm down, okay? She didn't do anything wrong."
But before Diego could discipline Five, Lila walked in front of the trio. "Hate to be the boring one, guys, but, uh, it's time we get the hell out of here."
And she was right. Everyone was leaving the ball from the consulate building and they were getting in their cars and driving away from all of the commotion they created.
"When you say "we", who exactly are you referring to?" Five walked closer to Lila and glared at her.
Lila turned around at him. "Not a lot of ambiguity in that sentence."
"Listen, I don't know who you are or where you came from, but whatever it is, I'd advise you return posthaste." Five kept glaring at her and not even blinking.
"She's right, Five. We gotta get outta here." Diego agreed with Lila.
"Just because you're mad at her, doesn't mean you can be mad at everyone else." She pointed at Y/n. "I just saved your and her's life, you kinder-shit. If I hadn't stepped in, all that would be left of you is a skirt and some bloody socks."
"And that's the problem." Five almost cut her off. "You're too good. You ask too many questions. You know too much. And you fight like you know what you're doing."
"He's got a point." Diego looked up from the ground at Lila.
Now she was stuck in a position it was hard to get out of. "So I know how to handle myself, and that makes me the bad guy?"
"Whoever you are, you're in my way. If I see you again, I will kill you." Five finished talking and took Y/n's hand before teleporting her with him.
∽☂ ∽
𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐊𝐈𝐃𝐒 𝐉𝐔𝐌𝐏𝐄𝐃 𝐁𝐀𝐂𝐊 𝐓𝐎 𝐄𝐋𝐈𝐎𝐓'𝐒 𝐇𝐎𝐌𝐄. They were right in the middle of the kitchen. After they teleported, Five walked slowly away from Y/n and turned his back on her. Y/n looked around where she was as Five sighed.
"You explain to me everything right now." He turned around and glared at her.
Y/n just scoffed and looked away. "I have no idea what you're talking about."
"Yes, you do. You and I both do. Do you know the Swedes?" Five started walking to her and asking questions.
"No."
"Do you work for the commission?"
"No!"
"Are you still in contact with The Handler?"
"No!"
"Then what is it?!"
"I don't know!" Y/n yelled as Five stopped right in front of her. Tears started falling down her bruised cheeks. "Why do you always assume the worst about me? Why do you always think about the worst possible thing that I could do? Why do you have to think of me as the bad guy? What did I do wrong to you?!" She yelled and Five just stared at her.

He realized that he took it way too far. They both stared at one another in silence. The only sounds were Y/n's sobs and gasps. She knew that Five was right. She was lying to him and he was so close to the truth.
"You know what? Fuck you. I don't have the intention nor the energy to explain something to you that I didn't do." She shook her head and started walking away. She walked past Five not even looking back. Five turned around and looked at her with eyes with the fact that he knew that he messed up.
"Y/n, wait I-" But before he could finish his sentence she walked into the other room and slammed the door shut.
She leaned on the door and slid down until she hit the floor. She brought her knees to her chest, and, once again, cried like she did the last time.
She sobbed and sniffled as she knew that Five was so close to finding out how she was not being honest. When will she tell Five? Does she even have to continue with the work?
After a couple of minutes of crying, she stood up and sat on the edge of the bed. She looked down at the ground at her feet until a knock was heard.
"Y/n? Can we talk? Please?" Five asked as he stood behind her door.
Y/n thought about it for a second but decided to let him in. "Come in."
Five opened the door very carefully and walked inside the room. Y/n sat up straight and looked at the boy.
He started walking closer towards her. "Look, I just wanted to say that I'm sorry. I truly am. I accused you of something that you didn't do and would never do and I feel terrible." He came and sat down on the bed next to her, he looked down at the ground while she looked at him. "I don't even know what got to my head but...I know that I hurt you. Can you please forgive me?"
Five looked up at Y/n and their eyes locked with one another. Y/n thought about it for a second and sighed. "I do."
"You do?" Five chuckled.
So did she. "Yeah, I do. I can't be mad at you and you know it, I-"
But before Y/n could finish her part, Five gently pressed his soft lips on hers. Y/n was startled but went along with it.
She touched his face with her hands and so did he. They kissed and hugged each other before Y/n broke the kiss. She gasped and took the belt off her waist and Five took off his blazer.
She unzipped her dress and took it off kicking it on the ground. Five also took his sweater off before they continued their shenanigans.
Five and Y/n took off the remaining of their clothes: Y/n took off her bra and underwear while Five took off his shirt, shorts, and underwear.
They began kissing each other again as Y/n pushed him on the bed. They continued while the moon was still up and the stars lighting up their room.

"𝐅𝐈𝐕𝐄? 𝐘/𝐍?" 𝐃𝐈𝐄𝐆𝐎'𝐒 𝐕𝐎𝐈𝐂𝐄 𝐄𝐂𝐇𝐎𝐄𝐃, the following morning through Elliot's home. Y/n opened her eyes and saw that she was sleeping naked on the bed with Five hugging each other.
She sat up and covered her chest with the blanket. "Shit." She turned to Five and started shaking him. "Five! Five, wake up!"
Five hummed and woke up too. "Oh, hello there." He said in his morning voice.

"We have to go, Diego's searching for us." She got out of bed and started searching for her clothes.
Five sat up and the realization hit him just in time. "Shit. Okay."
They both started to get ready and after 30 seconds, they were fully dressed in their academy uniforms ready to get back to reality.

"𝐍𝐎, 𝐍𝐎, 𝐍𝐎, 𝐈 𝐃𝐎𝐍'𝐓 𝐔𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐍𝐃. They keep following me." Diego said as Luther cooked his eggs and Five and Y/n, leaning on the wall, drank their coffee.
"Wait, who?" Luther asked having no idea in the world what was Diego talking about.
Diego stopped pacing around the kitchen and looked at him."Those Dutch sociopaths."
"They're Swedish, you idiot." Five corrected Diego who turned around as Y/n sipped her coffee. "Hired guns paid to eradicate us before we do any more damage to this timeline."
"Yeah, but why now? I mean, I'm..." Diego snapped his fingers to help him use the right words. "...fine for three months until you two showed up."
"Yeah, I was here for a year and no one messed with me." Luther agreed and Diego put his hands out to show the pair that he was right.
Y/n scoffed and rolled her eyes. "Even if it was our fault, which it isn't, we only have six days before the end of the world, and the closest anyone's gotten to dad was that driveway at the consulate."
Luther looked up from the pan filled with eggs. "Well..." He heavily sighed as everyone else looked at him. "...that's not exactly true."
Five walked closer to Luther while Y/n continued to stay leaning on the wall. "What do you mean?"
"I saw him."
Then Luther explained to his siblings how he gathered all of the money he could and went on a bus to see dad. But when he got to the house, which was the academy, dad refused to believe that Luther was his son. So he trashed him and broke his soul, apparently.
"That's pathetic." Diego replied as he was sitting next to the kitchen table with Luther in the middle, him on Luther's left and Five on Luther's right. Meanwhile, Y/n was sitting on the counter next to Five.
"Yeah, well, at least he didn't shank my ass." Luther said as he stuffed his mouth with eggs.
"No, bro, he shanked your heart."
Five and Y/n exchanged a glance that said "Ooh, that's gotta hurt". Then Elliot walked inside the kitchen and stared at Luther.
"Is that my bathrobe?"
Yup, Luther was in fact, wearing a bathrobe that belonged to Elliot.
Luther glanced at him and looked around awkwardly. "No."
"Look, who cares what he shanked? He knows something about time travel." Five tried to bring everyone back to the right idea.
"Five's right." Y/n hoped of the counter. "How else does he know about JFK's death?"
"Um..." Elliot raised his hand up and the pair looked at him. "Wait, why don't you just do your thing and, uh, time travel us out?"
Y/n and Five scoffed and rolled their eyes as Five stood up from the chair and walked over to pour in some more coffee. "Anyone care to explain?"
"First time he tried, he and Y/n got lost in the apocalypse." Luther started.
"Second time, we got stuck in our 13-year-old self bodies, which, for the record..." She murmured the last part. "...I tried to avoid."
"Last time I tried, I scattered my family across three years in Dallas, Texas, possibly triggering a doomsday." Five turned to Elliot with his cup and smiled. "Any more questions, Elliot?"
"Uh, no." Elliot shook his head getting the gif that Five was not in the mood of explaining everything.
"You're missing the big picture. Dad is the ringleader of a sinister cabal that's planning to kill the president." Diego tried to give everyone the idea of what was actually important.
"A cabal?" Luther asked confused as hell.
"Ignore him." Y/n showed with her hand that it was unimportant.
"Look, the way I see it, we only have one option."
The three of them looked at Five. "Oh, yeah? And what's that?"
"It's time to get the Umbrella Academy back together."
Luther furrowed his eyebrows in annoyance while Y/n chuckled.
"Hell yeah. Family meeting." Diego looked down at the ground.
"Okay then, can one of you get Allison, please?" Luther asked in a very sad tone.
"You two still a thing?" Diego glanced at Luther clearly interested.
Luther shook his head that gave the answer of "Meh" and Diego leaned in. "Do we need to talk?"
"No, she's married."
"Whoa. Dude, that's rough."
But Luther tried to cover his pain by chuckling. "I can handle it."
"I'll get her." Five volunteered. "Y/n, you coming with me?" Five turned to Y/n and she broke her gaze.
"Huh? Oh, yeah, no, I'll wait for everyone to get here. You go get here alone."
Five nodded at her. "Okay, can you get Vanya without, uh, squeezing her to death?"Five walked to the threshold that separated the kitchen and the living room as he stopped to point at Luther.
"I'll try."
"Wait, d-" After that, Five teleported before Elliot could finish what he wanted to say.
"Uh...what should I do?"
Y/n smiled and walked over to him. "Prepare for company."

"𝐇𝐄𝐘, 𝐔𝐌, 𝐈'𝐌 𝐆𝐎𝐍𝐍𝐀 𝐆𝐎 𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐒𝐈𝐃𝐄 𝐉𝐔𝐒𝐓... 𝐆𝐄𝐓 𝐒𝐎𝐌𝐄 𝐅𝐑𝐄𝐒𝐇 𝐀𝐈𝐑." Y/n pointed to the door for Diego who sat on the sofa flipping his knife and waiting for the others to show up.
But he stopped flipping and looked at her in suspicion. "Everything all right?"
The girl put her hands in her pockets out of nervousness and anxiousness. "No, yeah, everything's fine, just..." Y/n showed with her hands around her head and nervously chuckled. "...a lot of things on the mind."
Diego nodded and she went through the kitchen to the door. She opened it and walked down the stairs and through another door into the same alleyway that everyone landed in when they got thrown out of the vortex.
She heavily sighed and closed her eyes in order to calm down and try to just forget about the things that were taking too much of her brain capacity. But before she could even open her eyes, a familiar woman's voice was heard behind her.
"Getting ready for the family reunion, huh?"
Y/n rolled her eyes and crossed her arms on her chest turning around. "Don't remember calling the line "1-8000-Get-more-annoyed-and-pissed-off"."
The Handler just ignored Y/n's mocking. "Good day to you too, Y/n. You know, today when I woke up, I realized that sometimes we make the wrong decisions which can throw people's life's into the wrong directions and-"
"What do you want?" Y/n cut her off from her usual monologs.
The Handler stopped talking and stared at her. "I just came here to give you the news that might make your life better, might make it worse. Depends on the honesty you've been sharing with your boyfriend."
"Hmm, yeah, but when did I ask?" Y/n pretended to be interested with her hand on her chin.
The Handler was trying to stay calm as long as possible, but she knew that it was going to be worse for Y/n. "You are no longer needed to complete the given assignment which was to kill Number Five."
Y/n let her arms out as her eyes went wide as plates. "What?"
"All of the terms and conditions that you were told are being canceled. You can go and live your six-day-life left here in 1963. Good luck!" She wanted to walk past Y/n but she stopped her.
"What do you mean?! Is it because I didn't do the job on time?" Y/n was beginning to grow even more frustrated at that.
"No. You are just...unnecessary for me to complete this job because the goal has changed. Thank you for your service."
The woman walked past Y/n but the girl just stood there in shock.
"Is it because Lila is protecting Five and I and now that is the new job?" She yelled and the woman stopped in her tracks. "Because if it's true, then you need some more undercover workers on the field."
The Handler turned around and looked at her for the last time, evilly smiling. "You're smarter than I thought, Number Eight."

𝐘/𝐍 𝐖𝐀𝐋𝐊𝐄𝐃 𝐓𝐇𝐑𝐎𝐔𝐆𝐇 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐀𝐌𝐄 𝐇𝐀𝐋𝐋𝐖𝐀𝐘 trying not to cry and hold her tears inside her. She didn't know what was she supposed to do and how everything is going to turn out. Even though she didn't have any plan for this it still felt chaotic and stressful. She walked up the stairs to the apartment and before going inside, she took a deep breath and opened the door.
"Hey, has anyone arrived yet?" She said happily to Diego with her fake small smile.
He looked at her and shook his head. "Not yet."
Y/n sighed and walked inside the apartment. She closed the door and walked inside the kitchen. There she saw Elliot making something.
"What are you doing?" She asked drawing out the "what".
Elliot was startled so he looked up and chuckled. "Oh! Just something. You'll see later." He continued to make the food or whatever he was doing.
Just then Y/n heard the downstairs door open. She and Diego exchanged glances, when he was still sitting on the sofa, and walked towards the railing of the second floor. There they saw Luther and Vanya downstairs.
Y/n smiled and as soon as Vanya noticed her, she smiled too. "Hey, Vanya." She waved.
"Hey there."
After that, they headed upstairs where all of the things were already set on the table for the others by Elliot.
Y/n turned around and saw it. "Oh, you're already done, as I can see. Wait till the others get here, it's about to get real wild."
∽☂ ∽
"𝐘'𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐊𝐍𝐎𝐖, 𝐉𝐄𝐋𝐋-𝐎 𝐔𝐒𝐄𝐃 𝐓𝐎 𝐁𝐄 𝐀 𝐃𝐄𝐋𝐈𝐂𝐀𝐂𝐘. You know, in order to make it, you gotta boil down a whole mess of hooves, you know, horses, cows, pigs, it doesn't matter." Elliot was talking about the food while the others sat on his left, Vanya was lying on the couch next to Luther, Diego was sitting across Vanya and Y/n was sitting on Diego's left. Luther, Y/n, and Vanya were just staring at something while Diego was playing with his knives again, like a little kid.
"But not everybody has a mess of hooves just lying around. It wasn't until, uh...a couple of sassy New Yorkers figured out how to dry it out so that the rest of us could have a...a chance to enjoy this ambrosia." Elliot tried to make it sound interesting even though it wasn't meant to be that way.
"If we have some, will you shut up?" Diego stopped fidgeting with his knives and looked at Elliot with an annoyed look.
"Maybe." So he took a bowl and started scooping up the Jell-O." Here." Meanwhile, Luther just watched with a disgusted look.
Y/n tried to get her mind off of Five so she turned to Vanya. "How you feeling?"
"Pretty shitty, to be honest." Vanya answered her with the truth which Y/n really appreciated.
"Where would you say you are on a scale from one to...ending all life on this planet?" Diego asked sarcastically as he flipped his knife in his right hand.
"Really?" Vanya replied as she tilted her head.
"Jesus, Diego." Y/n put her forehead down on her hand she rested on the armrest on the seat.
Luther leaned in closer to Diego. "Diego, put the knife away, you idiot. She's fine."
"The last time I saw this one, she had me suspended midair, sucking the life out of me with energy tentacles." He stopped throwing his knife up and down and pointed it at Luther. "I think I'm allowed a little time to process."
"Oh, I would love to see an energy tentacle." Elliot tuned in pointing at Diego.
"Trust me, you wouldn't." Y/n smiled and shook her head at him as she sat up.
Vanya sat up on the sofa with a sad and ashamed look. "I don't remember what I did, but I'm sorry...if...if that means anything."
"It does. Just going through a lot right now." Diego replied to her as he blankly stared at the table.
"We're always going through a lot" Y/n thought in her head which was undeniably true as she rolled her eyes.
"There's this...girl that I like. I thought she liked me but turns out that she's..." But Diego's sentence was interrupted by the door downstairs opening and Allison's laughs.
"Oh, thank god." Luther sarcastically smiled as they all stood up from the sofa.
"Is anyone here? Hello?" Allison yelled from downstairs. Sounded like she was quite drunk which was weird considering it's the middle of the day.
"Le petit mort, le petit mort." Klaus mumbled something in french. He also sounded drunk but it's Klaus so it's not really something out of the ordinary.
"What? You don't speak french." Allison laughed.
"It's "the little death". Oh, wow. Look at this old stuff." Klaus said walking inside and looking at the old TVs.
They were both chattering and laughing until they spotted their four other siblings standing at the top near the railing.
"Oh, wow. I know this is impossible, but...did we all get sexier?" Klaus joked which caused Y/n to smile a bit.
They all exchanged looks of excitement and love. Klaus being Klaus waved at Diego while Five and Y/n locked eyes with one another.
"Guess, we're all back together, huh?" Five gave that kind of look.
