Chapter 2: #Fivolores

Five. How should I start? Let's just say he's a complete dickhead with the most adorable smile, an asshole with awesome hair, someone who loves to insult you but makes you feel safe and somewhat a mix between a demon and an angel. The irony is that we're two peas in a pod. We are inseparable. We do literally everything together. We quarrel with Luther and Diego, and hang out with shy Vanya. Even our bedrooms are next to each other.

The even more irony thing? I have mixed feelings for him.

It is Monday. Bridgett, one of the housemaids of the academy, came to pick me up. I was really excited to see my siblings, especially Five.

I changed into my uniform and came down to the dining room to have breakfast. I got out of my bedroom and ran into Five. We both walked downstairs without talking, so it was pretty awkward. Five broke the silence. " How did you hate your weekend?" "I love it," I sneered, " we made you a new crop top. Wanna try it?" I asked, faking excitement. Before Five could answer, Luther walked past us, snickering and making kissing noises,which made him look ridiculous." Hey Luther, how are things with Allison?" Five called out. Luther's face turned three shades of red, which was hilarious.

"I'd rather date a mannequin," Five said blandly. "Well," I started, trying to make Five fluster, " I'm a great kisser you know." " Sorry I'm not a huge fan of tuna," he answered, referring to my breath. "Well how would you know?" I asked smugly. "We don't have time for this," Five ignored my comment.

(I was shocked cuz, I know Five. Like me, he is very competitive and gives great comebacks when it comes to our little arguments. He didn't just try to stop our conversation, did he?)

After a meal, we had training——again. We were on the ground floor, looking up the endless staircase and sighed. Dad and Vanya are on the rooftop. As soon as Vanya blew the whistle, we raced up to the top. " That's not fair! Five's cheating!" Luther shouted, as Five teleports in front of him." He adapted," my uncle simply answered. Knowing that we could use our powers, I used my powers to rose myself up, and before I knew it, I was flying. Five teleported to the rooftop effortlessly and I followed.

After a long day of training, we immediately went straight to bed, well, not exactly. Luther 'secretly' came to Allison's room to watch a movie. I could hear ' My Heart Will Go On' playing through the thin walls. For the FIFTH time this month. I couldn't really sleep with music so I just grabbed my pillow with covered my ears. Suddenly Five teleported into my room. In the middle of the night. " Dolores!! No! Don't go! I li——" He shouted. Then he saw me and hugged me tightly.

" You know, you could just walk into my room, lazy. It's next to yours," I teased, but felt startled and confused at the same time.(Oh I HATE mixed emotions!)

" I had a dream. I somehow time traveled and... and there was an apocalypse! And you guys were dead! It felt so real! What if it was a sign that doomsday is around the corner?! What if.."

" No, it's not gonna happen. According to scientific research, the Big Bang starts again after around 2.5-22 billion years from now." I said matter- of - factly, trying to calm him down.

(Btw, I am really good at Science and Art.)

" Being smart doesn't make you more interesting," Five said, starting to calm down a bit, "And it felt so real —— you know what: I'm gonna learn how to time travel to figure it out." He said.

And that is how he got obsessed with time travel.

We're turning twelve today. It is no biggie because my uncle couldn't care less. The Hargreeves and I think it is pretty unfair so Allison rumoured Reginald to let us have a day off.

Diego is hanging out with his best friend Eudora. Klaus and Ben decided to go to the amusement park(real mature). Correction: Klaus dragged Ben to the amusement park. Vanya was practicing for the talent show with her friend. Five and I planned to have a secret sleepover and I was totally free in the afternoon.

I was finishing the design of the Dorothy- inspired outfit when Allison came knocking the door. " Hey Dolores, are you free today? You wanna go to Griddy's Doughnuts for tea with me and Luther?" " 'Kay," I replied, not turning around. " Bring Five along. You don't wanna be third- wheeling. Double dates are fun." She said. " Da—— date? Nononono, we aren't a thing. You and Luther are. We aren't," I babbled, glancing at Five, who was lying on my bed, randomly checking out my artwork. He heard her, but avoided looking at me. "Let's just go with them," he mumbled, " we have nothing to do anyway."

We walked down the sidewalk chatting with Allison about what to eat at the cafe. Five seems quiet, for some unknown reason. We had a birthday cake (actually it's just a mega doughnut with candles on top). Allison rumoured the cashier, so we sort of may have eaten without paying.

( Allison's cool. She is like an older sister, even though we're born at the same time. She knows when to be serious, and when to have some fun. The only thing that is super weird about her is that she has feelings for an idiot called Luther.)

We joined Klaus and Ben at the carnival. We finally knew why they chose to go there: merry go rounds and Ferris wheels, for once we finally felt like real children, enjoying ourselves. We went there for like 2 hours and came home at night.

I crept to Five's room with my pillows and footies. We slept opposite each other, his legs facing me. "Ya foot smells like rotten eggs," he said across the bed. "What did you say? Ya wanna smell my foot?" I asked playfully, shoving my foot towards him. " Smell my victory!" I yelled. " You sick son of a biscuit!" Five shouted, swatting my foot.

Fun fact: we two don't swear, but we do use other words to cover them. In this case, 'biscuit' means 'bitch'. The 'no swearing policy' is written in our friendship rule book.

"Shut up!" Five suddenly whispered- shouted. "What, you're losing now?Are you finally—" "Just shut the hell up,will ya? Mom's coming!" "Shoot," I buried myself in Five's blanket, while Five pretended to be asleep.

No one's POV:

Grace walked by Five's door. She smiled at the boy, and left to check on the other kids. She knew that Dolores was also in the room, but she pretended she didn't. She knew the two were an unlikely pair and decided not to tell Reginald on them. She had her own secrets as well, like the fact that she has emotions, despite being a robot.

When Grace (from the 60s) and Reginald broke up, Reginald was heartbroken. He found a hair that belonged to her, and made a human- sized robot with her DNA, causing the robot to look like her and had emotions like a human being.

Dolores' POV:

We waited till Mom left the room. I couldn't hold my giggle, and Five started to crack up too. "That was close," he said, sitting up. "TOO close," I replied, also helping myself up. Once the laughter faded, I couldn't help but ask randomly," Hey, um... I have a question." "You're asking me one now." " So... uh, do you refer to me as um, your brother or cousin?"

" None. I think you're more than that. I think... I like you."

A/N: Heyyy I just love the scene when Five said "Hey Luther, how are things with Allison?" cuz it's based on my personal experience. Back in sixth grade, my classmates just loved to ship other people for fun and they shipped a boy and me. And that was exactly what my guy friend said when a jerk asked how our 'relationship' was going.

Also, maybe send this story to other TUA fans you know? That helps me a lot, thanks.🫶🫶
