RUN BOY RUN- reader x Five Hargreeves

Part Twenty-Four

I gently stroke Y/n hair as we just lay in her bed. Before I jumped, this is something we did often. And I missed it like crazy. I feel her snuggle into us more. I kiss her head and lay my head on top of hers. It was gonna be extremely calm day. Until there was a crash downstairs. Both of us sit up. Wide eyed, we turn to each other. "What was that?" Y/n asked. "I don't know," I say pulling her closer to me. I look over at the newspaper on her bedside table. "Shit," I mutter. I grab the paper and start to pace. "Five, what's going on?" Y/n asked standing. "The headline hasn't changed," I mutter. Y/n looked at me in confusion. She opened her mouth to say something when the academy walls started to shake. 

Y/n reached and grabbed me. I held her close and kiss her head. But the walls start to fall! I covered her head. "Ok, we gotta go!" I yell. I grab Y/n hand and we ran downstairs. The walls were crumbling. We won't make it. "Y/n!" I call out "Duck!" I cover Y/n as the academy crumbled. When the crumbling stopped I uncover her. She looks around with tears in her eyes. The academy was completely crumbled away. "Five, what's going on?" I ask. He had a worried expression painted on his face. "Let's go find the others and I will explain everything," he said and gently guided me to the group. We meet up with the rest of the siblings. "Guys, this is it. The apocalypse is still on," Five stated "The world ends today." 

"I thought you said it was over," Luther said as Klaus runs over to us. "I was wrong ok? This newspaper, I found it when I got struck. The headline hasn't changed." "No," a very sarcastic Diego spoke. I rolled my eyes at him "This doesn't mean anything. The time could've been altered since that news paper came out morning." "You are not listening to me! When I found it I assumed this place came down along with everything else. But here we are. The moon is still shinning, the earth is still in one piece but not the academy." 

Y/n was still holding onto me, with fear. "I'm confused," Klaus stated. "Then listen to me, you idiot. Vanya distorted the academy before the apocalypse. I thought Harold Jenkins was the cause but he was the fuse. Vanya is the bomb!" I yell. "She causes the apocalypse," Y/n whispers next to me. I look over at her and nod "We have to find her." The sudden roars of helicopter blades surrounded us. "We gotta go!" Diego yelled. "Re-group at the Super Star, Go!" I grab Y/n and make the jump.  

Time Skip and switch to Y/n's pov

I sat next to Five, slouching in my chair. Luther was trying to be the leader and tell everyone what is going on. I was only half listening, because I was half asleep. Five glanced at me and I looked up at him. He smiled at me and I scooted closer to him. He placed his hand on my thigh. I turned my attraction to Klaus, he was staring at the paper. His eyes grew wide. "Look at this," he started. Vanya's picture was in the paper cause she is performing with the orchestra. "Oh right! I was gonna go. Vanya called me asking me if she should reserve a ticket for me. I told her yes. I was gonna go, but I got distracted."

"Distracted by what? Losing your V card with Mr. Pyco over there," Diego said, getting in my face, pointing to Five. Five rolled his eyes and stood along with me. "Ok, first off, I lost mine a long time ago," I say, winking at Five "next, I was busy helping Five saving the fucking world." Diego slunk back in his chair. An employee had walked over to us, and told us we had to bowl. Luther grabbed a ball and through it across the building. I roll my eyes and cuddle close to Five again. 

Allison pointed to her notes 'She's our sister.' I lay my head on Five's shoulders as Luther spoke up "We're the only ones capable of stopping her. We have a responsibility to Dad." "To Dad?" Diego yells "I've heard enough about-" I tune out of this argument between the two older boys. They have always been competing with each other to see who was better. Like grow up. Klaus as always spoke up and Diego actually listened. "He saved my life today," he responded when we all gave him looks. 

"Is that true?" Luther asked. I looked up at Klaus and smiled. He looked nervous. "Yeah, yeah, I did, take credit for it. But the hero is Ben. Today, just listen, he punched me in the face. And earlier at the house he was the one who saved Diego's life not me," he explained. My smile faded out of disbelieve. "You are unbelievable, Klaus," Luther muttered. Klaus sounded desperate as he grabbed a ball "You want proof, is that it?" He asked. I really want to believe him, so I sneak a glance into his mind. And I see Ben, looking so focused on this ball that Klaus was going to throw. My heart stopped. 

I haven't seen Ben since he died. Ben missed the catch and I come back. My breath gets heavy and I look tearfully at Klaus. Five stroked my hand and made me look at him. "Are you ok?" He asked gently. I smile as tears fell down my face. "Y/n, what happened?" "YOU KNOW I LIKED YOU A LOT BETTER BEFORE YOU GOT LAID!" Klaus shouted. Everybody tuned to look at him, then at Luther. Me, still in shock of what I saw before, just stared. I looked back at Five and he just shrugged. "I don't know what they are talking about, but I want to know about you. What in that 5 minute period, did you do-"

"Excuse me, It's my son's Kenny's birthday today, and I was wondering your children be alright playing with kids their own age, assuming it's ok with your 2 dads." I five and I look at each other and I shake my head not wanting to talk. I get up and start to walk away, when a swooshing noise filled the air. I look back at Five, who nodded towards the area the sound came. "What do that want now?" I ask and Five shrugs. He opens the tubes and there was a fortune cookie inside. Five broke it open and found the room of a hotel. "Do we go?" I ask. "What choice do we have," Five muttered, grabbing my waist.
