Five sat in a chair, upset, as I helped Diego. I wiped blood from his nose as it came out. He gave me a sweet smile and Five scoffed, disgusted. "We should stab him," Diego said, still smiling. "I'd love to but I'm sure he's good to have around in order to stop the apocalypse."

Five hadn't spoken a word to either of us since I asked him the question. He just watched me and Diego. A look of anger on his face. And a bit sad. I felt bad but at the same time I didn't care. He made me upset before I ever did anything.

I apologized to Diego for what Five did. I left the room and Five followed me out. "(Y/N), wait," he called out. "What do you want," I asked while still walking. "Do you really think I don't love you?" I stopped in my tracks. "Yeah. I really do." "Then," he muttered, "I'm sorry. I...I do really love you." "But you chose a mannequin over me. I loved you, Five. More than anything or anyone." "But you chose my brother over me."

"He cared. Unlike you." "He cared," Five questioned loudly, "Is that why he immediately tried fucking you? He doesn't care about anyone! You just like attention." My eyes watered with anger. I wanted to cry but I didn't. "You know, even if I wanted to be with Diego instead of you, it would be your fault," I whispered, "But, here's the thing, I don't want to be with him. I didn't wait two years for him. I didn't start a rebellion against my job for him. But, I'm not sure if you're ready for a relationship with someone who isn't a mannequin."

He grabbed my hand, "(Y/N), please. You have to understand. She was my first love. But, I love you now." "And you were my first love," I yelled, "But clearly we love other people." I pulled my hand from his. "If you follow me, I'll fucking stab you."

"Don't walk away from me like that," he yelled. "I am a grown woman, I will do what I please!" "You don't understand a damn thing, do you?" I spun back around to face him. We weren't that far apart. "You really wanna think my idiot brother loves you, go ahead. Don't come crying to me when he hurts you," he continued to raise his voice at me. "Five, you not only chose a plastic woman over me, but you shot at me and let me get shot because of her. If anyone hurt me, it's you."

"Let me tell you something," I started, "You have no idea how it feels to be in love then lose them-" "I lost my whole family for over forty years," he interrupted. "I wasn't talking about family, dumbass. You fell in love with Delores after you got stuck in time. I left my job, got shot, got stuck in time for two years, and was hated by your whole family. All of that just because I love you." "And I love you," he screamed. "You don't love me. You just keep me around because you have no choice now," I whispered.

He tried to defend himself but eventually stopped trying. "I really do care (Y/N)." "Good for you. You can keep caring," I said as I walked out the door.
