Acorns and Butterflies

Part 3

"Did we hurt Diego's feelings?" Allison said. "I didn't realize he was secretly crushing on Klaus this whole time."

"Shhhh," Klaus said. "Diego isn't ready to come out of the closet yet."

"Whoa!" Ben said. "Diego is secretly gay?"

"No," Five said. "He's bisexual."

"Wh-what?" Vanya said. "How do you know?"

"The future," Five said, yawning. "Duh."

Five cuddled his face into Ben's neck and added, "I wanna sleeeeep."

"Shush!" Ben said. "You guys need to stop talking!"

"Shushing!" Allison whispered, giggling.

"I'll be quiet as the whispering wind!" Klaus whispered, super loudly.

"Shush," Five grumbled, sleepily.

So cute! Ben thought. Five is such a little angel! We have to be nice to our angel!

Allison giggled and said, "I wanna be spoiled, though! Can I ask Klaus and Vanya to spoil me?"

Vanya sat up and screamed, "REALLY?!"

Five winced and opened his eyes, "Huh?"

"I'll spoil the hell outta you!" Klaus said. "Your turn to be the white frosting in the oreo cookie sandwich!"

"Yeah!" Vanya said. "I'll spoil you, Allison!"

"Shuuuuush," Five said. "Spoil her QUIETLY."

Allison giggled and whispered, "Spoil me quietly."

And then, to Ben's delight, Vanya turned away from Five and started hugging Allison. And Klaus started humming and petting Allison.

Hell yes! Ben thought. I get Five to myself now!

And Five didn't even care that Vanya had abandoned him for Allison. He smiled and turned towards Ben, wrapping his legs around Ben and squeezing like an adorable little koala!

"This is the best day of my LIFE!" Ben said.

"Ditto," Five mumbled, sleepily.

"Ditto!" Allison said.

"Yeah!" Vanya said. "Allison, um, I secretly had a crush on you!"

"Oh my god!" Allison said. "Me too!"

"You secretly had a crush on yourself?" Klaus said, laughing.

"I had a gay crush on Vanya!" Allison said. "But I read online that I have to pretend to be straight because, um, because most girls are straight and they'll hate me for flirting with them!"

"I'm totally bisexual!" Vanya said. "I've always thought you were super pretty!"

"Oh my god!" Allison said. "Can I give you a lil kiss?!"

"Yes!" Vanya said. "Yes you can!"

"Hell yes!" Allison said, giggling.

"Sleeeeeep," Five groaned. "Lemme sleeeeeeep."

"Shush yourselves, ladies," Klaus said, wiggling his eyebrows. "Put on a silent motion picture and lemme enjoy watchin' you kiss each other."

Vanya wrinkled her nose at Klaus and said, "Um... no?"

"We'll kiss later," Allison whispered. "When we're alone together."

Vanya giggled.

"Oh my god!" Ben said. "How do you know if you're bisexual or not?! How can you tell?!"
