"Step one, find out who is missing an eye..." I walked besides five, approaching a white building. The one the trucker had informed us previously. "Act innocent okay?" Five looked to me. I placed my hair into pigtails, and sent a 'What' expression to his gaze. He nodded off and opened the door for us. We waited in front of the receptionist counter, Five had the eye in his right hand.
"Uhm, can I help you?"
I turned to the man in a lab coat and smiled. "Do you know who this belongs to?" I gesture towards Fives hand. "Where did you get that?" "Why do you care?" Five rebutted "Sir, my brother and I were on the playground, and It happened to roll by." My patience was already at its lowest. "So we want to return it to its rightful owner-"
"Aw, that's sweet. What a thoughtful couple of kids." The receptionist added lightly
"Right?"
Five grinned, "So look up the name for me will 'ya." "Sorry but patient records are strictly confidential..." I looked at him in anguish,
'that's a lie, I know your playing all your customers...' (Italics and '' is telepathy)
His expression dropped
"Um, you know what I can do, I can take this eye off your hands and return it to its rightful owner...so if I could just," He reaches for Fives hand, but Five pulls back. "Yeah, your not touching this eye..."
"Now you listen here young man-" Five grabs onto his collar and pulls him lower to the ground. "No, you listen to me asshole! I've come a long way for this. Probably some shit that you pea brain couldn't understand! So give us the information and we'll be on our merry way:)"
"Oh and if you call me young man one more time I'm gonna put your head through that damn wall!"
"Oh dearrr," the lady sighed
"CaLl SeCuRiTy..." The man whispered
"Yep," she lifted up the phone to her ear.
"Sorry but I can't let you do that," I flicked the phone and it's entirety through the glass wall beside it. "Sorry? Again?" I laughed.
Five threw his hands off the doctor and we walked out.
"Well that was for absolutely nothing!"
On our journey back to the academy, Five and I strategized a way that we could save the world. Despite our lead on nothing. But that soon went to shit. "Eight, remember that kiss when we were fifteen?" "Yeah, what about it." I released my pigtails. "You never followed up on it, not that you have to now. But we practically got a restart since were young again. I mean being young again is still shitty but-" "It's simple, we survived the apocalypse together. I could only assume we are practically stuck together. You know unless your with Delores."
"No, with you it is." He smiled at me. 'Damn it' I went in front of him, stopping him in his tracks. "Hi?" "This is 40 years too late, but..."
"I really care about you," I whispered
"What was that?" He leaned closer with his ear. "I find you highly admirable...bitch." He landed a kiss on my cheek and offered his hand while we walked. Without looking over he responded,
