It Will Always be You

(S2) Nine

"Five?" I say in disbelief.

"Sorry I'm late, sweetheart," he says, putting his hands in his pockets. "I've been looking everywhere for you."

Am I creating an illusion again? No.

He's real and he's here.

I ran over to him and immediately hugged him.

"You asshole!" I shout at him.

I feel his arms snake around my waist tightly.

I pull away from the hug and kiss him. God, I've missed his lips.

(Me too ✌️)

"You've been gone for a year." I say, smile creeping onto my lips.

"Not for me, got here this morning." He says.

He looks at my arm. The tattoo of his name.

"I got this a few months ago," I tell him. "I didn't know if you were coming back."

He smiles at me and I hear someone walk in. I turn around and see Elliott.

"Wanna explain something?" Five says.

I turn and look at Five and then Elliott.

"Wait," I say. "you knew Five was here."

"Y/n.." he said backing up.

I took my arm away from Five and walked towards him.

"You knew how long I've been looking for him. And you knew how hurt I was without him." I say. "You had to drag me in from the alley one night because I passed out drunk while looking for him. And you feel the need to keep the fact he's here from me?"

"Just calm down-"

"Calm down? Are you seriously telling me to calm down?"

"Love," I hear Five say. "I don't think we have time for this. You see, the world is going to end in ten days."

I turn and look at him.

"I can't fucking escape this end of the world bullshit, can I?"

"Not yet." He says.

I turn back to Elliott and point to him. "I'll deal with you later."

I grab Fives hand and drag him to my room, grabbing my mug on the way.

I set the cup down and shut the door once we get to my room. I immediately kiss him and he kisses back.

After our very long kiss I smile.

"You don't understand how much I've missed you."

"I noticed something," he said. "Why are there so many scars on your arm?"

Shit.

"Working in a bar can get pretty physical when you have to break up fights. Some people have knifes with them."

Luther is the one who breaks up the fights not me. I just hope he believes me.

He nods we lay down in my bed. I lay on his chest as I play with the fabric of his shirt.

"So, what happened?" He asks.

"A lot of shit."

"Well, tell me."

"Ok," I sit up. "I discovered new powers. I can manipulate people, I can make illusions, my telekinesis has gotten stronger, I can make people relieve memories, I can create like this giant force wall, and my eyes can glow purple when I use my powers. It's kinda cool, actually. I kill perverted men and rapists, I've killed I think 42 now? Maybe more. I found our old friend Marley. I work at a bar as a bartender. And I got the tattoo. That's about it."

He looks a little taken aback. I laugh at him.

"I know, it's a lot." I say.

"So you got stranded with Luther?" He asks.

"Yeah," I say slightly disappointed. "he's been blaming me a lot for this. But it doesn't really matter."

"Have you found any of the others?"

"No, surprisingly. Have you?"

"Diego." He says.

"Well, that's better than no one."

"He wants to save John F. Kennedy and prevent his death." He says.

"Ok, we're fucked." I say laying back down on his chest.

"Not yet."

He rubs my back and plays with my short hair.

"I love you." I heard him say before I drifted off to sleep.
