CHAPTER SIXTY-ONE: TRYING TO FIX WHAT IS BROKEN

---

As Five walked towards your room. He had a feeling that you were hiding something. Something had been off with you and is not only because you just lost your daughter. No, there was something else. Surely it wasn't guilt for killing Harlan. The Commission and your mom had beaten the guilt and remorse for any of their work of out the assassin.

Letting out a sigh Five walked into your room before scanning the bookshelf and he smiled as he spotted your favorite book that you use to read in the apocalypse.

He grab it before he opened it and he smiled when he saw a picture of you, him and Sam and another picture of Kayla between the pages.

The sound of footsteps got him to look up to see you.

While looking at you he closed the book but the pictures fell out of the pages which caused him to bend down to pick them up.

"You kept them" he said "Of course" you approached him before taking the pictures and the book from him, put the book back on the shelf while putting the pictures in your inner pocket.

"So what is the deal with you and my dad?" he asked "Are you jealous?" you tilted your head "Unless I have a reason to. You know that, but that's not what I meant. What do you know about this thing called Project Oblivion?" he asked and you looked at him as he move a piece of his hair away from his face.

"Probably about as much as you do. What do you know about it?" you asked "Well, I'm not leaving this room until you tell me the truth about my dad's little suicide mission. I know you're part of it" he said "Did Pogo tell you that?" you asked "He did actually, right after I thought we were okay. I think it's fair you told me the truth, especially if you think our marriage is gonna be save" he said.

"I don't want to fight you but if that's what this conversation will become, so be it" you scoff "I know everything you know about Oblivion" you said "Well, I have a feeling that there is something you are not telling me. And I want to know what it is" he took a step closer to you "So please tell me" he said.

"What are you trying to get at?" you asked "My dad is a madman. He can't be trusted. He have probably got into your head, he is lying to you, manipulating with you, probably making you believe that is going to save us all, but the truth is that he is going to kill us all" he said "With what evidence? Why would I try to kill you, Five?" you asked "You work with him and Reginald can manipulative" he said "I've work for crazy people before, my mom was like Reginald, but that doesn't mean I'm on their side" you said "If you want to assign someone the bad guy, fine, but it shouldn't be your ex-wife, especially if you think our marriage is salvageable" you said.

"Ex-wife" that word hurt him "The divorce papers don't exit anymore. We are still carrying around the wedding rings. We have kissed, had sex, many times. So you're still my wife and I'm still your husband" he said "So you think I'm gonna fucked it up because I work with your dad? Five, that doesn't make any sense" you said.

"You're doing his dirty work. You know I'm beginning to think that I should've listen to my siblings, maybe you are the enemy" he said "How? I don't even know half of the plan. All I know is someone is going to die" you blurted out.

His eyes widened when you mention that someone was going to die.

"I didn't know that. Who's going to die?" he asked "I don't know. Does it really matter?" you asked "Yes" he nodded "I need to know if it one of my siblings, or if it is you" he said "What do you care if it is me?" you asked.

"Because you're my wife Y/n. I'm not going to let the end of everything ruin my chance to be a better man, to fix this, to try and win you back, get that life with you we wanted. I'm ready to fight for you, for us, for our love, are you?" he asked before he took another step closer to you.
