~~~~~~~~"We survived on scraps..."
"What he means is Can food, roaches, basically garbage ." I interrupted while snuggled in a blanket.
"You know that rumor that Twinkies have an endless shelf life...Well it's total bullshit." Five took a large sip of a his newly acquired vodka.
"I can't even imagine." Vanya sat shocked.
"You do what ever it took to survive, even if it was a little horrific," I said bundling myself up tighter in my red blanket.
"Us three adapted, whatever the world through at us, we found a way to over come it."
"Three?"
"Delores"
"Who's that?""Fives wife, he fell in love with a mannequin before even considering me." I said jokingly. I guess Vanya didn't receive the joke as shecontained an emotionless face.
"Ya' got anything stronger?" Five asked
Vanya left to grab Five a different drink. When she returned she stared at us with concern."She thinks we're insane Five," I stood up to place my elbow on fives shoulder.
"No-no...its just a lot to take in..." she faltered.
"Exactly What don't you not understand?" It was his signature look, half pissed, half 'you're an idiot' smile."Why didn't you just travel back?"
"Gee you don't think I didn't try that? We did everything to get back home!"
Vanya nodded before asking another question, "if you both grew old over there, why do still look like a kid?"Five signal me to pass him the bottle of whiskey. It floated slowly and poured into his glass cup. "Like I said our equations were off?" I continued.
"I mean, dad used to say that...time travel could mess up your mind...maybe that's what's happening-""This was a mistake you are too young, to naive to understand" Five pulled my hand and walked towards the door.
"Eight- Five- Wait!"
"I haven't seen you both in a long time, and I don't want to lose you...that's all...it's getting late why not stay, and we'll talk about this in the morning."
I nodded my head and jumped back onto the couch. I closed my eyes and heard Vanya and Five exchanges their goodnights. I was finally about to get some rest, when five started poking my side. 'This bitch'
"Hello?"
"Were leaving, lets go..." He started to pulled me off the couch. I agreed angrily and followed him out of the apartment. "Dude, this better be important." I said sleepily.
"Never mind don't answer that,"
"ThE WoRlD EnDs iN EigHt dAys" i finished.
He just stood and stared at me like I was a complete idiot, I blushed. 'Oh shit' I thought to myself.
