(Y/n)'s pov

We were in a very modern-looking building. Everything was white, and a lot of walls were made out of glass. There were also mannequins? Weird.

We waited in a lobby a few feet away from the reception desk. Then a man came out. He looked at us weirdly before speaking.

"Uh, can I help you?" Five turns to him and holds up the eye.
"I need to know who this belongs to."
"Where did you get that?"
"What do you care?" I kick him in the foot, and he jolts back, looking at me angrily before looking back to the man.
"We found it at a playground, actually. It must have just," I click my tongue, "popped out." I smile at the man.
"We wanna return it to its rightful owner." Five speaks up.
"Oh... what a thoughtful young couple." The reception lady smiles at us. I look at her disgusted, but she doesn't notice.

"Yeah. Look up the name for us, will ya?"
"Uh, I'm sorry, but patient records are strictly confidential." Me and Five turns to the man. "That means I can't tell you -"
"Yeah, I know what it means."
"But I tell you what I can do. I will take the eye off your hands and return it to the owner. I'm sure he or she will be very grateful, so if I can just -" He reaches for the eye, but I slap his hand away.
"Yeah, you're not touching this eye." I step closer to the man. For some reason today, I was I little more irritated than usual. Most likely from the lack of sleep.

Five's pov

"Now, you listen here, young lady -" He starts but (Y/n) cut him off by pulling him by his tie down to her height.
"No! You listen to me, asshole. He's come a long way for this," she gestures towards me, "through some shit your pea brain couldn't even comprehend, so just give us the information we need, and we'll be on our merry way." She paused. "And if you call me 'young lady' one more time, I'm gonna put your head through that damn wall."

"Oh, dear." I look at the receptionist who I forgot was there.
"Call security." The man calls out. The lady picks up the phone, dialing a number. Eight shoves the man back and grabs my arm, practically dragging me.

I wasn't going to lie to myself. I liked it when (Y/n) stuck up for me. She did it a lot when we were kids. I was always making trouble with Dad. What happened back there felt... different. It was kinda- no! Five, don't think like that. That's disgusting. Never in a million years.

Suddenly, I'm snapped out of my thoughts with (Y/n) speaking.

"God damn it. I hate being called 'young lady' so much. It didn't used to bother me, but now it does. I'm not young! I'm fucking thirty years old!" I watch her pace back and forth throwing her arms around in the air. She kinda looks like... me right now.
"I hear you. I gotta think of a plan. I need that information." I sit on the stairs in front of the building to think.
"No. I got a plan."
"And what might that be?" I look at her and she just stares at the ground.
"We go in there. We tie that asshole up and then we kill everyone in front of him till no one's left and then he should give us the info, yeah?" She looks at me now.
"Number Eight, your starting to sound a little bit too much like me. And no. I have a plan you might like... better." She gives me a questioning look before we head back to the Academy.

(Y/n)'s pov

We were in fives room with Klaus. I had finally calmed down from earlier. We planned to have Klaus act as our father so we could get our information. I soon feel Vanya's presence. Shot I forgot to leave a note or something.

"Klaus get in the closet!" I whisper yell at him pushing him into it.
"Wha- huh? No! Not here again!"
I shush him.

Oh my god think of something! We have to look busy! Shit!

'Five you're gonna hate me for this.' He looks at me with a questionable look.
'What?' I then pull him to my face and smash my lips into his and then Vanya walks in.

"Oh my!" She covers her eyes. "Am I interrupting something?" Five and I pull away quickly.
"No nothing at all." I fix my clothes and look up at Five. His face is blank just staring at me. I look back at Vanya and she slowly uncovers her eyes.

"Uh, sorry to intrude. I was just worried about you guys." she smiles awkwardly.
"No, it's okay. Sorry, we left without saying goodbye." I apologize.
"No, look, I'm the one that should be sorry. Yeah, I was dismissive, and I guess I didn't know how to process what you were saying. And I still can't."
"Maybe you were right to be dismissive. Maybe it wasn't real at all. It felt real. Well... like you said, the old man did say time travel could contaminate the mind."

"Maybe I'm not the right person for you to be talking to. Look, I used to see someone. A therapist. I could give you her information."
"Thanks, but... I think I'm just gonna get some rest. It's been a long time since I've had a good sleep."
"Oooo! Sleepover? Like old times?" I suggest knowing we weren't actually going to sleep.
"Sure, Eight."
"Yay!"
"Okay." Vanya speaks up and then walks away closing the door behind her.

Klaus then burst out of the wardrobe knocking stuff out. "Wow... that was so touching, all that stuff about family and dad and time. And oh my god... that kiss was stea-myyy."
"Would you shut up? She'll hear you." Five whisper yells at Klaus.
"I'm moist."
"Klaus I love you but never say that again."
"I told you to put on something professional."
"What? This is my nicest outfit."
"It really is." I state remembering going through his clothes. I lived his style truly but some... clothing items were... disturbing. Five sighs disappointed.

"We'll raid the old man's closet." Five walks out Klaus and I follow behind him.
"As long as I get paid."
"When the job is done." I felt bad for tricking Klaus into doing this. I knew damn well Five didn't have money and I could have joined him after. I knew what he wanted to buy.
"Okay but just so we're clear on the finer details," Five pauses and turns to Klaus and me, "I just gotta go into this place and pretend to be your dear old dad, correct?"
"Yeah. Something like that.

"What's our cover story?"
"What? What are you talking about?" Five looks at him confused and so do I.
"I mean was I really young when I had you? Like, 16? Like, young and terribly misguided?"
"Do the math and you were... 13."

(I don't know if I stated this but fives and (Y/n)'s bodies are 17 not 13)

"Terribly misguided!" Klaus yells.
"Sure."
"And, Eight. Is he your siblings or..?" He wiggles his eyebrows at us.
"They think we're dating." I tell Klaus.
"Great!" Klaus jumps and then looks at Five. "Your mother, that slut." Five just stares at him concerned but I was kinda enjoying it. "Whoever she was. We met at..."
"The disco?" I suggested
"The disco! Okay? Remember that. Oh my god, the sex was amaaazinggg." I laugh but Five rolls his eyes.
"What a disturbing glimpse into that thing you call a brain." Five walks away.
"Don't make me put you in time-out! Klaus yells after five.

"I'd like to see you try." I tell Klaus.
"No, but..." I stare at Klaus interested in what he's gonna say, "I bet he'd loveeee for you to punish him." Klaus winks at me.
"Klaus! Eww!"
"What!? You seem to be the only one he listens to in any way."
"Ha! Hardly!"
"Mhm. Okay, but what was that back I'm the room?" he wiggles his brows at me.
"What was what?" I knew what he was talking about I just didn't want to say it out loud.
"You know? The... kiss." I whisper the last word. I roll my eyes at him.
"Klaus that was just to distract Vanya." I turn and head towards the room Five was in.
"Or was it to distract five?" He states teasingly. I just sigh and continue towards Five Klaus following behind.
