The Umbrella Academy Season 3

Chapter 21

"Okay thank you! I'll get right on it!" Five says cutting me off, "if you don't mind could you get me a coffee please?" He starts to run to his room.

"Sure, I guess."

"Okay thanks!"

"Yeah I'll be back."

I leave my room and see Klaus walking up to me.

"Five can I talk to you really quick?" Klaus asks.

"Yeah but in a minute, I have to get Five a coffee."

"Okay!"

I blink to Griddy's and gets Five's coffee then go back.

"Here Five, your coffee." I say holding it out for him.

"Thanks!" He grabs the coffee from me, "and Klaus was being weird in your room, like dancing and stuff. Just letting you know."

"You're welcome. And, I mean that's just Klaus, being Klaus, but okay. Do you know where he went after?"

"No, I don't. Why?"

"He said he wanted to talk earlier, so I'm gonna go find him. Bye."

"Okay bye."

I blink to the bar guessing that's where he was.

"Okay Klaus I'm here."

"Yeah so, what are you and Five gonna do?"

"What do you mean?"

"Since Five found a way back, I'm guessing we're gonna go back, so are you guys going to break up or are you coming or what?"

"Right now Five is trying to figure out what would happen if I went with you guys back to your timeline to see if that would change the timeline. I told him not to, but he begged be to let him so I did."

"Why didn't you want him to?"

"Because I'm 90% sure that's it's going to change the timeline."

"But there's still like 10% left, so there's still a chance that it won't, so then you can come back and drink with me!"

"I guess, but I'm just nervous that something could happen to me, or anybody else I care about."

"We're just gonna have to wait and find out, I guess."

"I guess."

"If you do come, are you gonna bring anything?"

"Probably a lot."

"Like what?"

"Stuff that reminds me of my family."

"And if you don't?"

"I'll give you guys stuff to remind you of me."

"I have an idea!" Klaus says changing the topic.

"What is it?"

"We should get drunk again!"

"No, Klaus!"

"But it might be the last time!" He whines.

"I'll think about it, okay?"

"Fine! But if you change your mind let me know!"

"I will."

"I'm gonna go ask Allison if she wants to drink with me."

"Alright. I'm gonna go talk to Vanya."

"Okay!"

I knock on Vanya's door.

"Come in."

"Hey Vanya."

"Oh, hey Five. What are you doing here?"

"I just wanted to come talk to you, since you have another 3 days here."

"Yeah" She laughs.

"So, what are you doing?"

"I'm just reading a book I found in here."

"Can I see it?"

"Sure" She passes me the book.

"This was Ben's favorite book from when we were kids!"

"Really? I didn't know, sorry I-"

"No, don't worry about it" I say stopping her, "I just haven't seen it since, before I left. He would always read it to me when he would sneak out of his room in the middle of the night." I say staring at the book.

"You guys would sneak out of your rooms at night too?"

"Of course! We would have the best times when we would sneak out!"

"What would you guys do?"

"We would talk in each others rooms. Or we would go to Griddy's and eat a bunch of donuts until we either got sick or kicked out."

"We would do that too!"

"I would mainly go to Ben's or Kevin's rooms to read and talk."

"You guys were the more mature ones?"

"Yeah, well someone had to be!"

We laugh.

"I wish I was as close to my siblings as you guys."

"You guys seem pretty close though?"

"Not like you guys!"

"If you say so."

"Are you coming back with us?"

"I don't know right now. Five is trying to figure out if I can but for now we'll have to wait."

"Alright."

We started to hear yelling from downstairs so we left the room and looked over the balcony.

"And why do you need to be in everybody's business!?" Diego says.

"I'm not!" Marco responds, "being in your business would be knowing stuff about you that you didn't tell me!"

"Well, you sure know a lot about my brother and your sister!"

"She's my sister! I'm allowed to know stuff about her!"

"Not if she doesn't want you to know!"

"How do you know what she does and doesn't want me to know?!"

"Based on what they told me, they don't really want it to be out there!"

"Then why'd they tell you?!"

"Because we trusted him Marco!" I say from the balcony.

"You trusted him, over me?! Your own brother!?"

I blink to where they are.

"He's been more of a brother to me in the last 4 days than you ever had!"

"How?! You don't even know him!"

"I don't need to know him to know he actually cares about his siblings!"

Marco stands there speechless.

"Now leave him alone!"

Marco leaves and goes upstairs mad.

"You alright Diego?"

"Yeah, I'm fine. Thanks for that."

"No problem. Now, what happened?"

"He was saying that you..."

"I what?"

"Y- y- yo-"

"Hey, it's okay. Just picture the word in your mind." I rub his back little.

"He was saying, y- you and Five should've never met, and if Allison wasn't here his plan would've worked and that you guys should have st- stayed in the apocalypse and- and-"

"Diego" I say stopping him, "it's okay, he won't hurt me."

"Are you sure?"
