“Ooo, the nerve of that man,” Allison growls as we all sit inside the hair salon Allison works at as she brushes Klaus’s hair. “I mean, one things goes wrong, and he’s on a warpath. I mean, doesn’t know who I am? No, no. No, Ray, you know exactly who I am. You-”
“Ugh, why do we have to talk about relationship problems,” I whine quietly to Vanya who sits in the chair beside me.
“Ow. From what?” I hear Klaus say.
“The end of the world, for one,” Allison states.
“Is the world really gonna end in six days?” Vanya asks.
“Well, it did last time, and we did everything Five and Y/N could think of to stop it,” Allison answers.
“Hey, wouldn’t it be weird if Five grew up all hot? Wouldn’t that be weird?” Klaus asks getting up from his chair, causing Allison to stop brushing his hair.
“Isn’t he already,” I chuckle.
“What. Eww,” Allison says loudly.
“Oh, eww, eww. Please, Miss Luther was my lover,” Klaus mocks.
“We have never even kissed. Besides how come we don’t talk about Y/N here,” Allison points at me.
"What! Me and Five are not related!” I laugh. “I was never adopted my Reginald. He never signed any papers for me to be his child. So therefore, I am not related to Five. Besides we all saw the looks you would give each other at the dinner table.”
“Wait aren’t we all brothers and sisters, or…?” Vanya asks, confused making Klaus snort.
“Well...technically, it-” Allison starts.
“Technically? If you have to word...use the word technically, you're already in trouble,” Klaus says before giggling.
“Okay, can...can we focus?” Allison asks. “I mean, clearly we’re not saving the world tonight, but maybe, maybe, we could at least try to save my marriage.”
I roll my eyes at her response.
“No!” Klaus says as he over fills his cup. “No, because that’s like...that’s like asking a nun how to hump someone’s leg. I mean, who in this room knows shit about relationships? This one?” He points at Vanya. “In secret love with some farm Frau.”
“Her name’s Sissy,” Vanya says drunk.
“Which is an improvement on her previous love interest, the serial killer,” Klaus says.
“What?”
“Later,” Allison whispers.
“Meanwhile, I’m carrying a torch for a soldier I haven’t technically met yet, and Luther is in love with his sister,” Klaus continues.
“Okay, again, we are not biological,” Allison argues.
“Face it, the healthiest long-term relationship in this family is Y/N and Five. The only thing the Umbrella Academy knows about love is how to screw it up,” Klaus goes on.
“Cheers,” Allison says, raising her glass.
“Cheers,” Me and Vanya say.
“How do you guys deal with this?” Vanya asks.
“With what?” I ask.
“I mean, all of it. The time travel, seeing the dead, the end of the world,”
“Well, I get really high. Allison...Allison...lies to herself,” Klaus says making Allison kick a chair towards him which causes him to flinch. “I think Y/N tends to cry a lot." I nod at that. "And you suppress all your emotions deep, deep down until you...you blow shit up.”
“Yeah, I’d really like to not do that anymore,” Vanya says.
“Well, you’ve got six days, missy,”
“What the hell are we supposed to do with six days?” Allison asks.
“Party?” Klaus suggests.
“We could help figure out who’s ending the world this time,” I suggested.
“I’m gonna tell Sissy that I love her,” Vanya declares, sitting up in her chair. “I don’t want any secrets.”
“Yeah,” Allison and Klaus agree.
“Sure,” I shrug.
“Yeah, yeah, you’re right,” Allison keeps agreeing with Vanya. “Yes, cause, you know if...if it’s all gonna go tits-up, the least I could do is be honest with my husband,”
“Oh...does that mean I have to face my cult?” Klaus groans. “I just hate group breakups. It’s why I stopped dating twins.”
“You dated twins?” I ask. “When?”
“Ehh, that’s a story for another time,” Klaus says waving it off.
“This family’s amazing,” Vanya smiles.
Klaus chuckles. “Yeah, sure.”
“Okay, let’s not get ahead of ourselves,” Allison chuckles.
“Come here, you two,” Klaus says as he throws his arm over Allison's shoulder.
“Come on,” Alllison says, doing the same. “Get over here.”
Glancing over at each other, me and Vanya both shrug before smiles spread across our faces. Pushing off our chairs we both join Allison and Klaus, wrapping our arms around both their torso’s.
“I love you guys,” Klaus says hugging us harder.
“Oh! You guys!” Allison gasps before pulling away from us. “I love this song!” Walking over to the radio Allison turns up the volume, making the music boom over the salon.
Pulling away from each other we all start dancing. Flaying our arms, spinning, twisting our feet. It was the most fun I have had in years, in fact the only fun I’ve had in years. Throughout the whole song we do so many different things, spin in the chairs while dancing in front of the mirror, dance around each other, and just do our own thing.
And as soon as the songs over we all go back to our seats. Giggling I try to catch my breath Allison and Vanya do the same. And from there we just talked, we talked until the sun had gone down and it was now night time.
“I think it’s time I get back,” I say pointing at the door.
“You want me to drive you back?” Vanya asks.
“No it’s fine, I'll walk,” I say holding out my hands for a hug. Smiling they all pull me into a hug. “Thanks guys, I’ve missed this.” I say as we pull away.
“We have too,” Allison smiles pulling me into another hug.
