"where's vanya?" i asked allison. "she's probably with her weird boyfriend." "she has a boyfriend?" "i always thought she was into girls." "really? i always thought you were into girls." "oh i am. just not completely." i said winking at her. "really? your bisexual?" i nodded. "oh my god! that's so cool! i completely support you!" she said hugging me and i laughed. "what's going on back there? is cel pregnant?" five whipped around and looked at me expectingly. "no- at least i think- she's bi!" "diego looked at me through the little mirror. "i knew it." five just nodded and smirked.

we pulled up somewhere and diego started. "i know this jenkins dude has to have a file somewhere , and i'm gonna get it." "and your plan is to waltz in there and as for someone's personal file?" "i know the station like the back of my hand sis. i've spent a lot of time inside." "handcuffed." allison said and i couldn't help but giggle. "whatever. here's the plan." "plan?" five asked. "i'm just gonna blink in and get the file." "no that's not- you don't know the ins and outs of this place okay?" "i literally just did this yesterday- well my yesterday, not your yesterday. it'll take me two seconds-" "listen to me , you are not going in there. i made a call, that's what a leader does. he leads." he left the car and left us stunned. "okay...then?"

we got out of the car because allison had to make a call. "so...you were shot?" i giggled. "yes i was. i barley remember it to be honest." he laughed. we stared at each other for a few seconds. "what do you think of um- getting married?" my heart stopped. "are you saying you want to marry me?" "only if you want to...do you?" "i can imagine us getting married, having a few kids?" he smiled , grabbed my face and kissed me. i melted in his touch and it was the sweetest thing.

"your welcome." diego came in and interrupted. i sighed. "holy shit!" allison said. "what?" "harold jenkins is leanold peabody." "who?" "vanyas boyfriend." "what? oh my god." we got to jenkins house and started walking towards it. "be careful okay? we don't know what peabodys capable of." allison said. "yeah he didn't seem dangerous when i first saw him." i noticed five limping again. "hey if you need to take a break we understand." "no i'm fine celeste i swear." "okay if your sure." "peabody was scrawny." "yeah well so are most serial killers and mass murderers- i mean look at him." allison said pointing at five. "thanks." i smiled. "good point." "so what's this guy want with vanya?" "i don't know. how about we ask him after we kill him?" "woah woah woah hey, look, i'm gonna burst through-" five looked away as if he were gonna blink. diego noticed and tried to talk him out of it but failed. five grabbed my hand and transported us inside the house. then we heard diego crash through the window. "subtle." said allison. five went to check the door. "you know the door was unlocked?" me and allison burst into laughter as five just smiled. "yeah well , my way works just fine." diego winced. "spread out. yell if your uh- you know- in trouble." "ah , inspiring leadership." said five looking at us. "the best of the best." "one of the greats." me and allison replied.
me and allison checked the middle floor and we went up into the attic and saw the weirdest thing.

"all our faces are burnt off." "well that's not creepy. this guys got some serious issues." "indeed." i replied. five sighed. i looks at him and he shook his head. "this was never about vanya, it was about us." i focused on allison again. then i heard a thump. i turned around and saw five on the ground. i kneeled next to him "five? oh my god i told you , take a break." "um celeste." i turned my head to face diego. he pulled fives shirt up and i saw a piece of something that looked like shrapnel on fives bleeding side. "jesus five! why didn't you tell me?" "keep going." "are you crazy? yeah sure i'm just gonna leave you here to die!" my breathing got heavy and tears started filling my eyes. "oh my god. is he gonna die?" "no he's gonna be okay. its okay!" allison said , trying to distract me but i didn't want to leave fives side. "your so...close." i looked up at him. he slowed his breathing a bit. "five. five? five...oh my god. oh my god no." my breathing got faster and heavier and tears started running down my cheeks. i just got him back i can't lose him again. "no cel he's okay." "no he's not we have to take him to mom! oh my god oh my god no. no." diego grabbed my shoulders and turned me towards him. "listen to me cel , he's going to be okay. you hear me?" i nod. crying harder.

we got home and allison and diego were carrying five. "we should've taken him to the hospital." "a kid with a shrapnel wound might raise some questions." five tirelessly said. "shh don't talk. keep your energy." they sat him on the couch and i put his head on my lap , stroking his hair. allison and diego were talking but i wasn't paying attention. then diego just walked away, probably to get mom. five started groaning. "hey hey, look at me. yeah , hey." he looked up at me. "stay with me okay? remember? we're gonna get married and- and we're uh- gonna have a kid- a boy then maybe a girl. and we're gonna tell them every single horrible detail about our childhood and make sure we never turn out like dad , and uh- we'll have a huge house and a few dogs or cats or any animal we'll be so rich! c'mon just imagine how amazing that'll be? just the two of us , making up for 20 years of lost time." at this point five was smiling and mom took him to his bed. i was crying like a lunatic. tears just kept spilling out. he fell asleel and i sat next to him on his bed comforting him in his sleep. allison and diego continued looking for jenkins and i stayed.

i was reading to five , even thought he was asleep. then i just started rambling about anything and then i heard a groan.

"five? are you awake?" i asked. "y-yeah." he coughed. "how are you feeling" "like we need to get harold jenkins." "yeah um , no way." he looked up at me confused. "are you crazy? your badly injured and all you can think about is that son of a bitch?" "celeste , the world is ending in three days! and-" "i don't care. you need to rest." he looked at me with a shocked face and i couldn't help but smile. "fine. but first thing tomorrow-" "yes i know." i kissed his cheek and we both fell asleep.
