"¿Me estás tomando el pelo? ¡Te dije que las ecuaciones estaban mal! ¡Pero no! ¡Nunca me escuchas!" I yell at Five. He knows some Spanish but isn't fluent like me, so he just looks confused. But one of the men next to me looks like he understood what I said. (That's Diego).

Translation: Are you kidding me? I told you the equations were wrong! But no! You never listen to me!

Five and I walk inside and go straight to the kitchen with our siblings following. I looked at them and realized how different they looked. I only counted five though, I recognized Luther, Diego, Allison, Klaus, and Vanya, but where was Ben? Then I remembered reading Vanya's book, Ben had died. The pain of his death suddenly hit me. Five realizes and he knows what's wrong, he gives me a hug and strokes my hair.

I miss Ben. I tell Five.

I miss him too.

We enter the kitchen.

"What's the date? The exact date." Five asks.

"The 24th," Vanya says as Five grabs a knife and cutting board.

"Of?" I ask and hand Five four slices of bread.

"March," Vanya replies. I grab the peanut butter and hand it to Five.

"Good." Five says. As he spreads the peanut butter on two slices of bread.

"So, are we gonna talk about what just happened?" Luther asks, Five and I ignore him.

"It's been 17 years." Allison finally speaks.

"It's been longer than that." I scoff. Five blinks behind Luther to get the marshmallows.

"I haven't missed that." Luther scowls.

"Where'd you go?" Diego asks.

"The future." Five replies.

"It's shit by the way," I comment.

"Called it!" Klaus finally speaks up. I can't help but laugh and look up at him.

"Hey, bestie!" I hug him.

"I should have listened to the old man. You know, jumping through space is one thing, jumping through space is a toss of the dice." Five puts the marshmallows onto our sandwiches.

"Nice dress," I tell Klaus.

"Oh, well, danke!"

"Wait, how did you get back?" Vanya asks.

"In the end, we had to project our consciousness forward into a suspended quantum state-" Five starts.

"Versions of ourselves that exist across every possible instance of time." I finish.

"That makes no sense," Diego says.

"Well, it would if you were smarter." Five says.

Diego tries to go after him but Luther holds him back.

"How long were you there?" Luther asks

"Forty-five years, give or take," I say.

"So what are you saying? You're both 58?"

"No, our consciousness is 58, apparently now our bodies are 17 again." Five says

"Y/n and Delores kept saying the equations were off... So...." Five starts.

"I told you! You never listen to your w- I mean, uh me." I blush. Our siblings send Five and me curious glances, but we ignore them.

"Delores?" Vanya asks. We ignore that too.
