They we're all in the kitchen watching Five grab bread to make a sandwich."What's the date? The exact date" Five asks and Eden closes her eyes at the familiar voice
"The 24th" Vanya says seeming confused
"Of what?" Five coldly asks and Eden smiles sadly to herself, she knew he changed
"March"
"So, are we gonna talk about what just happened?" Luther asks and Eden could feel how heavy her heart was with seeing her lost love. Five ignored Luther as he put two pieces of bread on the board and Eden watched Luther stands up.
"It's been 17 year" Luther says and Five puts his hands in the oversized pants
"It's been a lot longer than that" Five coldly says and spacial jumps behind Luther to grab something
"I haven't missed that" Luther mumbles as Eden stares at Five
"Where'd you go?" Diego asks and Five spacial jumps again
"The future, it's shit, by the way"
"Called it" Klaus says holding his finger up and Eden silently laughs
"I should've listened to the old man" Eden raises her eyebrow at that, of course he should have listened to their father
"You know, jumping through space is one thing, jumping through time is a toss of the dice." Five says opening the tub of peanut putter
He eyes Klaus and doesn't even glance at Eden who stood beside Allison who was holding her hand tightly in comfort.
"Nice dress" Five compliments
"Oh, well, danke!" Klaus says playing with the skirt.
"Wait, how did you get back?" Vanya asks with furrowed eyebrows
"In the end, I had to project my consciousness forward into a suspended quantum state version of myself that exists across every possible instance of time" he explains as all of them hold confusion on their faces besides Eden who nodded along
When Five was here before he would talk about these kind of things while laying on her lap, staring at the stars. Eden teared up at the memory before quickly blinking the tears away.
"That makes no sense" Diego says with confusion all over his face and Eden wanted to put a comforting hand on him but she felt like her feet were glued to the floor.
"Well, it would if you were smarter." Five says not looking up once and Luther quickly puts his arm up to stop Diego from jumping his brother.
"How long were you there?"
"Forty-five years. Give or take" Five says and Eden closes her eyes. Fifty-eight without him
"So what are you saying? That you're 58?" Luther questions and Eden almost giggle
