ROSES AND FLAMES - Five Hargreeves

𝟯𝟳. alone with his family... again

MINOR MATURE CONTENT WARNING... they are both of age (physically and mentally!) see what I did that ahaha— wasn't that funny

Sitting in her hotel room with the television playing, Josie ordered herself food, having Chet bring it in for her, also giving the girl a slice of chocolate cake, leaving immediately. As much as the universe couldn't handle the siblings and her being here, Josie also to get away from everyone.

The chocolate cake has come in handy when she decided to cry, feeling sad in many ways, spending this past year saving the world many many times. And she was bound to do it again. Hearing her door knock with five holding a few pairs of suits, Josie looked over to see him come in, putting them into his side of the closet.

"Want some cake?" Josie muffled, taking a sip of her rum, five coming over towards her. Taking off his hat and looking at josie, the girl out down her cake, lowering the tv. "Oh, the British food show! I remember how you love them." Five told her, getting a little distracted.

"This one is a cake competition, but it's people who have never baked before." Josie told him, five laughing with her. Watching one of the guys swear at the butter for not cooperating, the two laughed together, five taking a bite of the cake.

"That's delicious," he told her, seeing coffee also on the tray, pouring himself some. "Anyways, I just wanted to see how you're doing. I know I promised you a normal life, but we both know the grandfather paradox is impossible. Also your sister is back with two briefcases and they both don't work."

"What the fuck? I only knew about the one briefcase, what did she do to it?" Josie hissed, putting her drink down angrily. "Who knows, point is I think she can maybe help us, I'm going to go to the commission tomorrow to see why the timeline is this messed up. You wanna come?"

Josie had no purpose going to the commission, pressing her lips into a fine line, shaking her head. "No, it's better if you two go, Lila knows more about the commission than me sometimes, she stayed there more with mother while I was gone. I rather stay here if I'm being honest, maybe apologize to Allison for being a bitch to her— although she was asking for it."

Smiling at josie, the girl began to blush a little. The two had grown up so much in such little time. When five first saw Josie as a teenager again, he never thought she would stick to his side, happy around his family, get along with two brothers in particular, and still being the josie he's known for six years now.

"I'll be honest, if the world were to end again Five, I'll be happy dying with you. Only I would come with you for such an adventure. Sure we keep failing, but at least we're together." Josie said in a lower tone, leaning on her hand as she stared at five, blushing a little.

"Maybe we should've been in the insane asylum for loving each other during apocalypses." Five said, Josie laughing at that. "You're cute." She said, leaning forward to kissing him.

Moving the table, five deepened the kiss as josie smiled against his lips, feeling his hand snake around her waist, gesturing her to sit on his lap, obeying. Her legs on opposite sides of the couch, five lifted his torso a little towards josie, hearing her squeal.

Her lips tasted like chocolate with her perfume and lotion coming into the mix, deepening the kiss and craving for her touch even more. "Fuck, five." She whimpered, wrapping her arms around him as he tackled her neck for a moment.

Neither of them were amateurs at this, but for some reason it felt like it was their first time all over again, never wanting it to stop. Josie felt drunk with his touch, shifting in his lap and wanting more.

Josie held fives cheek as his hands were rested on her waist, both of their hearts beating in sync against each other. Josie  felt herself become warm and she panted breaking the kiss for a moment.
