The once vibrant and bustling home of the Hargreeves family now lay in ruins, a desolate wasteland of charred wood and twisted metal. Smoke still curled from the remains of the house, a haunting reminder of the catastrophe that had torn through their lives. Y/n Hargreeves stood at the edge of the devastation, her heart a hollow ache in her chest as she surveyed the wreckage.
Her eyes scanned the debris, searching for any sign of the life they had built together. Each step she took sent ash and rubble shifting beneath her feet, the acrid scent of smoke and destruction burning in her throat. She felt numb, the shock of the loss still too raw, too overwhelming to fully comprehend.
Her home, their sanctuary, was gone. The memories, the laughter, the love that had filled these walls—all reduced to ash and ruin. And Five... Five was gone too. The thought was like a knife twisting in her heart, a pain so deep it left her gasping for breath.
Y/n's hands trembled as she sifted through the remnants, searching for something—anything—that had survived the inferno. She found a few scorched photographs, the edges curled and blackened, the faces barely recognizable through the soot and grime. A broken piece of a picture frame, a melted clock. Ghosts of the life they had once known.
It was then that she saw it, half-buried beneath a pile of debris—a charred, leather-bound book, its cover cracked and blackened by the flames. She reached out with shaking hands, carefully lifting it from the wreckage. Her heart pounded in her chest as she opened it, the brittle pages crumbling slightly at the edges.
It was a diary. Five's diary.
The words were faded, the ink smeared and blurred by water and heat, but she could still make out the handwriting—Five's meticulous, looping script. Her fingers traced the letters, her eyes filling with tears as she realized what she was holding.

Today, Y/n and I talked about our future. It's strange, thinking about a future when I've spent so much of my life jumping through time, never staying in one place for long. But with her... I can see it. A home, a family. I've never felt this way before. I want to build something real with her.

We talked about kids today. Y/n laughed and said she couldn't imagine me as a father, but I could see the hope in her eyes. I told her I'd try my best, that I'd be there for her and our children, no matter what. She smiled, and for a moment, I could almost see it—little feet running through our house, laughter filling the air. It's a future I never thought I'd want, but now... it's all I can think about.

We found the perfect house today. It's small, but cozy. Y/n loves the garden, says she can picture us growing old together there. I told her it doesn't matter where we live, as long as we're together. She kissed me and said she felt the same. I want to make this place our home, fill it with memories, with love. I want to give her the life she deserves.

Today was perfect. We spent the day planning our future, dreaming about the life we're going to build together. I've never been more certain of anything in my life. I love her more than I ever thought possible. I'm going to marry her, start a family with her. We're going to be happy. I just know it.
Y/n's tears fell onto the pages, smearing the ink even further, but she couldn't stop reading. Each entry was like a dagger to her heart, a reminder of the dreams they had shared, the future they had planned. She could hear his voice in every word, feel his love in every sentence.
She clutched the diary to her chest, her body shaking with sobs. The weight of the loss crashed over her, the pain of knowing that the life they had dreamed of was now just ashes and memories. She had lost everything—their home, their future, and the man she loved more than anything in the world.
Y/n sat amidst the ruins, the diary cradled in her lap, her eyes staring blankly at the devastation around her. The sun was setting, casting a golden glow over the wreckage, the sky ablaze with the colors of dusk. It was a cruel reminder that life went on, even in the face of unimaginable loss.
She thought of Five, of the dreams they had shared, the love they had built. She could almost feel him beside her, his hand in hers, his voice whispering words of comfort and hope. But he was gone, and she was left alone in a world that felt empty and cold without him.
"I miss you," she whispered, her voice breaking. "I love you so much, Five. I don't know how to do this without you."
The wind picked up, rustling through the debris, carrying with it the faint scent of smoke and ash. Y/n closed her eyes, imagining that it was Five's hand brushing against her cheek, his voice in her ear.
She knew that she would have to go on, that she would have to find a way to rebuild her life. But in that moment, surrounded by the ruins of their home and the echoes of their dreams, all she could do was mourn the future they had lost.
As the first stars appeared in the twilight sky, Y/n stood slowly, clutching the charred diary to her chest. She took one last look at the ruins of their home, the place where they had dreamed of building their future together.
"I'll carry your dreams with me," she whispered, her voice filled with determination and love. "I'll keep them alive, for both of us."
With that promise in her heart, she turned and walked away from the ruins, her steps slow and heavy, but resolute. She knew that the road ahead would be long and hard, but she would face it with the strength of the love they had shared and the dreams they had built together.
And as she walked, the stars above shone brighter, their light a beacon of hope in the darkness, guiding her towards a future where the echoes of their love would always be with her.
