The Space Between Us (S2) || Five Hargreeves x Reader

☕️ Chapter Eight ☕️

Thankfully, when Five and I got to Allison's house, which we knew where is was because Luther told us, but that's not that point. The good thing is that Klaus was there with her. We don't have to go somewhere else to find him. Yay!

I was really happy to see both of them again, especially Klaus, but the annoying news is that they're both a little tipsy. By a little, I mean a lot. They were both drinking and there was only about a sip left in the bottle. Klaus is more drunk than Allison, of course. It's expected of him.

As we made our way back to Elliott's place, Five and I briefly explained that we were all having a little family meeting. We have to keep reminding Klaus every few minutes, because he'd forget and would ask where we were going.

"By the way..." Allison slurs her words a little. "Have Diego and Vanya changed?"

"Vanya?" I question with a sigh and shake my head. "No, but Diego's hair is longer. It's kind of similar to Klaus's hair now."

"Oh? This?" Klaus questions picking up a lock of his hair and sniffing it. "This is something new I'm trying out. I really like it."

I'm not even going to question him sniffing his hair, because of the state he's in right now and because I feel like he'd do that in his normal state, to be honest.

Five grunts softly. "Nobody asked if you like it."

I quickly circle around behind Allison and Klaus and shove them forward. "Get a move on. The building's just up ahead."

Klaus pulls me up in between him and Allison and has me in a tight hold around my neck, as we reach the front doors. "Is this going to be a party?"

"A party! Yes! That would be so much fun!" Allison adds enthusiastically, still slurring her words some.

"Klaus! You're choking her!" Five scolds and in the blink of an eye, Five jumps over and pulls me out of Klaus's grasp. "This isn't a party, you idiots. Now sober the hell up, we're going in."

We enter through the doors and Allison lets out a soft laugh. "Is anyone here? Hellooo?"

"'Le petit mort, le petit mort.'" Klaus repeats.

I roll my eyes. "Why are you speaking French?"

"It's means 'the little death'." He replies, not really giving me an answer. I love him, but he is a pain sometimes.

I sigh, annoyed. "I knew that already."

Elliott, Diego, Luther, and Vanya come into view upstairs, while Allison and Klaus laugh and look around the store.

"Oh. Wow..." Klaus finally notices the others. "Is it just me or...did we all get sexier? You know, except you two."

He points at me and Five. "If only both of you could be in your adult bodies, then you'd at least be apart of the sexy-"

"Klaus!" I cut him off. "Shut the hell up! You're just rubbing it in our faces that we're stuck in these shitty bodies!" Then, I look around at everyone.

Even though I'm sarcastic and snarky with them all, it sure is good to have all of us together again, even if it does mean tolerating with Luther just to enjoy this moment. It'd be even better if Ben were here with us too...

"Vanya..." Allison mumbles, also noticing them.

Vanya grips onto the railing. "I can't believe that I have not only one but two sisters." Vanya, Diego, and Luther walk down the stairs to be with us.

"I've missed you." Allison informs.

Vanya chuckles. "Thank God someone did." They hug each other.

"Oh, you are drunk." Diego growls, laying a hand on Klaus's shoulder.
