Iris's POV
I woke up to hear one of my old favourite songs 'I Think We're Alone Now'

I get out of bed and shakaly make my way to the hall.

Children behave, that's what they say when we're together
And watch how you play
They don't understand
And so we're

First I stop at Allison's room. Peaking in I see her dancing with her bowa laughing as she does so. I closed her door, making my way down the hall.

Running just as fast as we can, holding on to one another hands
Trying to get away into the night and then you put your arms around me
And we tumble to the ground and then you say

Next I checked Luther to see him weirdly moving his shoulders and shuffling his feet. I could see he was the one who had put the song on. I slowly closed his door so he wouldn't hear me.

I think we're alone now,
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
I think we're alone now,
The beating of our hearts is the only sound

I walked down the stairs to see Vanya doing a strange dance with her arms and legs. I couldn't help but smile at my weird siblings. I quietly snuck past her and made my way to see Diego.

Look at the way we gotta hide what we're doin'
'Cause what would they say
If they ever knew
And so we're
Running just as fast as we can, holding on to one another hands

Diego made me laugh as he was doing a shuffle with a weird spin kick. He would be so embarrassed if he knew I saw him.

Trying to get away into the night and then you put your arms around me
And we tumble to the ground and then you say
I think we're alone now,
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
I think we're alone now,
The beating of our hearts is the only sound
I think we're alone now,
There doesn't seem to be anyone around

Finding Klaus wasn't easy. He was on the bottom floor dancing with dad's ashes. I laughed as that's the closest he has ever been with our father. Before he could notice I left to find mom in the kitchen.

I think we're alone now,
The beating of our hearts is the only sound
Running just as fast as we can, holding on to one another hands
Trying to get away into the night and then you put your arms around me
And we tumble to the ground and then you say

"Hey mom, do you know where Pogo is?" I asked her. She turned to me. "Yes sweetie she is in the library." Mom smiled. "Thanks mom it's good to see you again!" I ran to the library spinning to the song and laughing thinking of everyone else.

I think we're alone now,
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
I think we're alone now,
The beating of our hearts is the only sound

"Pogo!" I yelled trying to find him.

"My dear! Your up and running around!" Pogo caught me and pulled me into a hug.

"I missed you" I laughed.

"And I missed that laugh. Now I will have to get some things ready for tests to see how you are doing but for now run along." I did as he told me. I ran outside so I couldn't hear the last part of the song.

Once I was outside I saw Ben's statue. My heart was jumping a minute ago now my eyes were brimming with tears. "I should have been there, I'm so sorry Ben! I shouldn't have pushed my powers, if I had only listened to you and dad. You were right I wasn't ready." I pressed my back into the concrete block that held the metal boy. "I miss you and Five." I placed my head into my hands and sighed.
