"Come on, Five."

The 58-year old man in a 13-year old body continued to walk in the streets of Dallas evening, completely ignoring you.

"We need to talk."

His pace quickened but you caught up to him easily since your powers involve super speed. Not being able to take his attitude, you grabbed his hand to halt him, "I'm not letting you go."

Five turned around to look at you with angry eyes, "You have to, then. We know I have to do this."

You rolled your eyes, "No, you don't, okay? We can still look for another way."

He removed his hand from yours as he sarcastically chuckled, "We can't, Y/N! We already talked to Dad and he just gave me useless advice."

You pinched the bridge of your nose, knowing your significant other is correct. You crossed your arms to look at him firmly, "Choose then, Five. Me or our siblings?"

His eyes widened, "Are you fucking kidding me? You know who I'm going to choose. They are the reason why I came back to 2019, after all."

"Okay. Goodbye, Five," you said to him before turning around to walk away.

Almost an hour ago, you went to the light supper after getting invited by your father, Reginald. You opened up that you ran away from the Umbrella Academy when you were ten years old since you wanted to train with someone else. You used your powers in order to teleport and eventually found yourself standing in front of the Commission. That's where you met the Handler.

You found the Commission's job exciting since you get to manage space and time. You never came back to the Umbrella Academy ever since you started your career in the Commission. Even though you were considered an expert in assassinations, the job became gruesome and you eventually realized that the Handler is a dictator. You started to plan your escape.

You found Five standing in front of you many years later with a shocked expression beside the Handler. You were surprised to see your adoptive brother and rival in the same room as you do. The Handler then paired you with him in missions.

In those years with him, you found out Five's tragedy. The hatred you felt towards him when you two would argue about who was faster between you vanished instantly. It was replaced with love that you never felt towards someone before.

You and Five would talk about the days back in the Umbrella Academy. The times when you two debated on who was stronger since your powers were almost the same. He can teleport and you can move in the speed of light, making it look like you teleported as well. The times when you will get in trouble because of your debates. The times when you will blame each other after getting in trouble. The two of you would always laugh right after discussing your memories.

You found comfort in each other. Five confessed that when you ran away, he was devastated. Of course, at first, he thought you were joking about seriously running away. But when you didn't come back the day after, he stayed in his room during the day and then slept in your room in the evening for years. Your father will always punish him but he wasn't afraid of him.

He also confessed about his feelings after giving it some thought. You confessed your feelings towards him as well. From that day, you promised to be with each other forever.
