"Her name is Violet Baudelaire" Max says. Five turns to look at Violet again. "I can't believe it!" he answers. "What?" Max asks. "We used to be best friends" Five replies. "Why are you staring at Five a lot?" Isadora asks. "What! I'm not staring at him" Violet responds. "Sure" Isadora laughs. "I'm not!" Violet tells her. "Okay" Isadora replies. "Hey! You should come see me ride my skateboard after school" Max says. "You ride a skateboard?" Five asks. "Duh" she replies. "I'm sorry, I can't my dad is very strict and I need to help him with something but maybe tomorrow" Five adds. "Umm yeah" Max answers. Violet is walking home from school later on. She starts texting Isadora.

Isadora🥰😂

Isadora: Can I come to your house today?

Violet: Not today, my mom needs me to help her with the plants in our front yard

Isadora: Oh okay👍🏻

Violet didn't notice a car coming towards her because she's too busy texting. It is now 7 inches from her. She hears the car honk. It's getting closer and closer and-

"Violet are you okay?!" a voice asks. "What just happened?" Violet replies. I feel like I'm gonna throw up. "A car almost ran you over" the voice answers. "Five?" She adds. "Yeah?" Five responds. "You saved my life" Violet tells him. "I guess I did" he replies. They decide to walk together. It's a quiet walk home. "How did you do it?" she asks. "Do what?" he replies. "That car was about 7 inches away from me.. how-" Violet adds before getting interrupted. "Don't worry about it" Five answers. They arrive at their houses. "Thanks a lot by the way" she tells him. "No problem" he responds. "Violet!" Sunny comes out running from the house. "Hey" Violet says as she gives Sunny a hug. Klaus is watching at the door. Five smiles at Violet one last time before getting in his house.  Klaus notices but doesn't say anything. Five enters his house. "I see you're checking out the new neighbor" his brother says. "Shut up Luther" Five replies. "Ya know.. I met this girl too! She's really pretty" he adds. "Gorgeous brown curly hair, eyes tha-" Luther gets interrupted. "I really don't care" Five answers as he space jumps to his room. "Rude" Luther answers. "Five?" his mom asks. "Yes?!" he replies. "Will you help me make pie for the neighbors?" she asks. "What?" Five answers. "Pie, for the neighbors" his mom says. "I'm not 6 years old anymore" he adds. "I'm 13" Five continues. "And isn't it supposed to be the other way around? They make the pie for us?" he asks. "I just wanted to be nice" his mom replies. "Fine" Five rolls his eyes. "Violet!" Her mom yells from downstairs. "What?" Violet comes running down the stairs. "Aren't you gonna help me water the plants?" she asks. "I came down here for a reason" Violet replies. Her mom smiles. "You'll be okay babysitting Sunny for a while right Klaus?!" Her mom asks. "I mean y'all are going to be outside so I'll be fine!" Klaus responds. Violet and her mom make their way outside. "You water this side, while I water the other side" her mom tells her. Violet starts to water the plants but she pauses when she felt the weight of someone looking at her. Someone is looking at her. Five is standing behind one of the windows. He realizes she spots him so he leaves. The next morning Five is at his locker. "What's up?" Max walks up to him. "Hey Max!" Five replies. "Are you going  to see me on my skateboard today after school?" she asks. "Of course! I wouldn't want to miss it" Five responds. "Good" Max answers. "If you want I can teach you some of my skills" she continues. "I really don't wanna embarrass myself" he says. "You won't because I'll be there" Max smiles. Five smiles back. "See you at lunch" she finishes. "Yeah.." Five replies.

-Btw Five isn't mentally 58 in this story. He's just a 13 year old boy.
