Chapter 21

Diego and Five followed him and I did too. We walked outside and got in the car. Diego and Allison in the front, with Five and I in the back. Diego drove a ways down the street, until we parked by the curb.


"I know this Jenkins dude has to have a record. We gotta get our hands on this file," Diego said.


"And your plans is to what? Waltz in there and just ask for it?" I questioned.


"I know the station like the back of my hand. I've spent a lot of time inside," he said.


"Handcuffed," i said back.


"Whatever, here's the plan," Diego started to explain.


"Plan? I'm just going to blink in and get the file," said Five.


"No, that's not...You don't know the ins and outs of this place, okay?" Diego said.


"I literally just did this yesterday," Five admitted.


"What?" we all asked.


"My yesterday, not your yesterday. It'll take me two seconds. Why don't i just go?" asked Five.


"Listen to me. You are not going in there. I made a call. That's what a leader does. He leads," Diego said, "Now, Alison come with me, you two wait here."


"Why me?" Allison asked. Diego just ignored her and got out of the car. Allison followed, leaving Five and I in the back alone.


"So...are we just going to sit here, or...?" Five asked, turning to me.


"Diego said wait, so i'm going to wait," I said.


"You're going to listen to that idiot? Y/n you're way better then him, we are better," said Five.


"Whatever," I mumbled, looking out the window.


"Y/n, there was something I was going to tell you a while ago, but i got interrupted. I feel like it's the perfect time to say it right now," Five said, changing the subject.


"Five, is this about the apocalypse? Because if you tell me one more thing, i'm going to-" I was cut off by Five's lips on mine. He immediately pulled away, regretting what he just did.


*god, i'm such an idiot* I read.


"Five-"


"No, I shouldn't have done that. I'm sorry," Five said, getting out of the car.


"Five!" I called, following him around the corner, where Allison stood on the phone.


"Hey, Vanya, it's me," Allison spoke into the phone, "I just wanted to...Things have gotten so messed up. And...all I ever wanted was to be a good sister to you..." Allison continued the voice mail until she hung up the phone.


"Y/n, Five, when did you get here?" she asked, turning around.


"Just now," Five said.


"You're welcome," said Diego, walking up to us with the file in his hand. Allison grabbed it from him and started looking through it.


"Holy shit," Allison mumbled.


"What?" Diego asked.


"Harold Jenkins is Leonard Peabody," Allison said, showing us the mugshot.


"Vanya's boyfriend," I pointed out.


"Let's go," Five said abruptly.


"Where?" I asked.


"His house. Let's go to Harold's house," Five repeated, looking away from me. Great, now it's going to be super awkward between us.


Diego and Allison agreed, so I followed the three of them to the car. Allison was about to sit in the passenger's seat, but Five go there first, obviously avoiding me. Allison just shrugged and sat next to me in the back.
