~Flashback (Age: 7)~

"Luther, wait up!" I call out tiredly. Luther walks on as if I wasn't even there "Luther....he stabbed me, I need to stop-" "Then stop!" Luther shouts, I freeze and stare at him nervously "You can stop, but I'm gonna keep going." Luther says harshly. I stare at him tiredly "But Luther..." I sigh, coughing.

Luther looks away from me "You're weak, (Y/N). Everyone knows it, but you." He growls out "What?" I ask, tears filling my eyes. The pain becomes to much and I collapse to the floor "Luther!" I call out, reaching for him. Luther stares at me before turning away "Sorry, (Nickname)." He says as he walks away "LUTHER! LUTHER YOU JERK!" I scream as he walks "YOU PROMISED! YOU PROMISED! I......I HATE YOU!" I cry out. Luther didn't even bother to look back

"LUTHER!"

"LUTHER....."

"Luther!"

Luther snaps out his thoughts and looks down at me "What?" He asks "We're figuring out a game plan and you're not listening." I say sternly "Oh....I'm sorry." Luther says with a distant tone "It's fine, join us at the table." I sigh

"That's not what I meant."

I turn back at him "Luther, we have bigger fish to fry, ok?" I say coldly before walking over to Harper and Five

"Yeah.....ok."

"Alright, listen you guys," Five says seriously "Dad is the only person that might have answer and we don't wanna scare him off." "And DON'T do anything stupid." I add. Harper nods with a straight face. I have to fight back a smile.

"You need a system," Harper says before grabbing a shell "Here! Whoever holds the shell gets to speak." Five and I glance at each other as Allison reaches out for the shell "I should have the shell," She states "I am very good with public speaking." "And you can rumor him!" Harper adds, touching the shell "Pfft, Allison doesn't rumor sh-I mean-people anymore." Diego scoffs "Uh, Diego," Luther states "You weren't holding the shell."

Diego looks at him annoyed before taking the shell out Allison's hands "Oh." He says before chucking it across the room. "Nice going Diego." Klaus says, hugging Harper as she looks at Diego sadly "Hm, oh sorry Kid..." Diego mutter, looking down "Here you can kick me to feel better, 'Kay?" Harper nods before kicking Diego in the knee "AH! D*****!" Diego cries out before falling to the floor. Harper flashes a proud smile as Allison high-fives her.
(A/N: *flashback to the coffee shop scene.....where my Five obsession began*)

I sit between Harper and Five, Harper looks down with a scared look "You ok?" Five asks, glancing at her "Just my daymares." Harper says with a weak smile "Daymares?" I ask "Yeah, sometimes I have daydreams, but they're really scaring like nightmares." Harper sighs, resting her head on my shoulder. Five and I flash each other the concerned parent look before the door open and Dad walks quickly to his seat.

Everyone stares at him nervously as the others take their seats as well. Dad glances at every single one of us "Not only have you burglarized my lab, set my chimp loose, conned your way into the Mexican consulate, repeatedly stalked and attacked me, but you have, on numerous occasions, called me-" Klaus stumbles into his seat "Hey Pop. How's it hangin?" He asks, Ben walks by shaking his head

"Dad." Dad finishes, staring at Klaus. I flinch when I feel something squeeze my hand, I look over to see Five staring at Dad, but his hand was linked with my own.....he's really stressed right now. I frown sadly as Dad continues.
