(I kinda divert from the original timeline a little in this one just to add to the plot coz I feel like Y/n is kinda just there and not doing anything.)

"Harold Jenkins? Who the hell is Harold Jenkins?"

"I don't know yet." Five said throwing the cup behind him. "But I do know that he's responsible for the apocalypse. So we have to find him. And we have to do it in the morning or as soon as Y/n gets back. If she ever does.. come back." He spoke struggling to find the words.

""If she ever does come back"? What does that mean five?" Klaus spoke moving closer to him.

"When I left she said my former employer pissed her off and she threw the briefcase at me. Right now, she could be alive.. Or maybe she didn't make it." Five said sitting down on the couch looking at the ground deep in his thoughts.

"Y/n has gotten herself out of so many different dangerous experiences, I don't see why you're worrying. you like her don't you, have since we were kids." Diego spoke walking a little closer.

"No I do-" He tried to reply but was cut off by Allison.

"I'm sorry. Am I the only one that's skeptical here? I mean, how exactly do you know all of this about what's his name?" Allison spoke almost completely ignoring the information Five had just told everyone.

"Harold Jenkins. You know those lunatics in masks who attacked the house?"

"Oh, yeah, I think I remember those guys."

"Yeah, the ones that attacked us while you were getting drunk."

"Yeah. Them. They were sent by the Temps Commission to stop me from coming back and preventing the end of life on Earth."

"The Temps what?"

"My former employer. They monitor all of time and space to make sure that whatever is supposed to happen happens. They believe the apocalypse is coming in four (changed that so I can add a part in :)) days. So I went to Commission headquarters and intercepted a message that was meant for said lunatics. "Protect Harold Jenkins." So he must be responsible for the apocalypse."

"What do you mean, protect time and space?"

"Where is this Hazel, Five?" 

"My skin is on fire."

"Do you have any idea, how insane this sounds?" Allison spoke up.

"You know what else is insane? I look like a 13-year-old, same as Y/n. Klaus talks to the dead, and Luther thinks he's fooling everybody with that overcoat. Everything about us is insane. It always has been."

"He's got a point there."

"We didn't choose this life, we're just living it. For the next four days, anyway."

"But the last time we tried to stop it, we all died. Why is this time any different? Why shouldn't I go home to my daughter?"

"Because this time, I'm here. We have the name of the man responsible. Guys, we actually have the chance of saving the lives of billions of people. Including Claire."

"You know her name?"

"I do, and I'd like to live long enough to meet her."

"All right. Let's get this bastar-"

ZAP (Okay with this part I doubt it would happen but my reasoning is that he got attached to Y/n as she was the first person he actually had a normal conversation with since the apocalypse. So he doesn't want to lose her.)

"Ow, why the fuck did I land on the floor." I said trying to get up but someone ran over to me and pushed me back down, engulfing me in a hug. Their cologne smelt so familiar. "Five?" I said pulling away to look at his face. "Thank god you're alive."

"Thank god I'M alive? I thought you died!" He looked down at me.

"I'm sorry, I was just trying to protect you."

I looked up to see the whole family looking at us and Klaus in the corner with a face kind of like this cat:

"We'll go to Harold Jenkins tomorrow." Five said as he walked to go pass out on the couch.

-☂︎-

"Hey is Five okay?" Vanya said walking over to me.

"Yeah, some stuff just happened at the commission. No need to wor-" I was cut off by someone grabbing my hand.

"Five don't do it, ill be si-" That mf teleported.

"Oh my god, Five why." I said trying to walk straight.

"Sorry."

"Why'd u need me here? I was talking to Vanya." I said sitting next to him on his bed.

"You were talking to her about why I was upset, I don't want her to know." He said looking at the ground.

"You too manly to care about me?" I said with a smirk to which he punched me slightly.

"You know why, she'll tell Klaus and then he wont be off my ass, hes already asked me 700 questions since I hugged you." Five replied.

"Why did you hug me by the way? Thought it 'wasn't your thing.'" I said turning to him as he still looked at the ground.

"It's not, I guess.." He trailed off.

"You guess...?" 

"It's getting late. Good night" He said laying down in his bed, I went to go to my own room when he turned around and grabbed my hand. "Gotta stop doin that man, didn't know u were clingy."

"Stay?" He said looking right into my soul with his puppy dog eyes.

"Five Hargreeves, scared to sleep alone? Why? You hated me yesterday, what happened?" I responded getting into the bed anyway.

(Ik this scenes short and this songs long but I wanted to add it coz it kinda related I guess?)

"You died." He said turning the other way.

"I didn't Five, i'm here." He didn't reply.

-☂︎-

Around 4:00AM

I woke up to Five screaming right in my ear.

"Hey, hey. Five.. Five." I said sitting up and turning him towards me and moving the hair out of his face. "What's wrong?"

"Nightmare, I'm fine." He said trying to turn back around but I stopped him.

"Cmon, Tell me what happened."

He looked at me for a couple of seconds, his eyes darted around my face. He's probably never seen me concerned about him before.

"I left out one thing about the apocalypse." He said tearing up slightly. "When I got there and saw everyones bodies, yours wasn't there so I called out to you.. And you called back, I ran towards your voice and you were crushed under a cement slab. I tried to pull it off of you but you stopped me, told me you already tried and it didn't work. I managed to pull it off but by the time I did you were.. Gone." He spoke a single tear escaping from his eye.

I tried to process all the information he just gave me but I couldn't. I can't believe he had to see everyones lifeless bodies but he saw me.. actually die. "Hey, forget about that. I'm here now and so are the others, we're going to help you prevent it from happening again, ok?" I said looking him straight in the eyes.

"You're the best sister, Thank you." He said before falling asleep again.

Sister. Sister, best sister. Why does that word feel like a stab to the heart?

In the morning around 8:00AM

Klaus opens the door to see Y/n and Five in the same bed, Fives arms around her waist, sound asleep.

GASP

"ARE YOU GUYS FINALLY TOGETHER?!" He screamed dropping a bell he had in his hands as I jolted awake from the loud sound.

"What? No Klaus, this is not what yo-" I looked at my waist, Fives arms were around my waist. Why? "We survived a traumatic experience, that's all Five will allow me to say." I said trying to rip Five's hands off of me. He wouldn't budge, every time I ripped them off he would just hug me again.

"EEEE I told you guys like 20 years ago about this." Klaus said running away and squealing down the corridor.

"So you didn't want him to know about you caring about me, but u didn't mind him knowing that we slept in the same bed and that you were hugging me?" I said turning around to look at Five. That mf wasn't even awake. How'd he do that.

-☂︎-

Going outside Klaus squealed when he saw us, I explain to Five what happened and his eyes almost pop out of their sockets, he laughed thinking it was a joke to which I respond with a scared smile, he then continued to bang his head on the table. (This is very rushed.)

"You guys ready to go?" Diego spoke walking into the room wearing his spandex. "Yeah, who is it again? Gerald Smenkins?" I asked earning a glare from Five.

"Harold Jenkins, why is that name so hard for you two to say?" He replied.

"We've lived together for like.. Over a decade what do you expect." I said looking at Diego as he nodded.

-☂︎-

"I know this Jenkins dude has to have a record. We gotta get our hands on this file." Allison spoke to all of us as we arrived at the police station.

"And your plan is to what? Waltz in there and just ask for it? I know the station like the back of my hand, sis. I've spent a lot of time inside." Diego spoke as if he was annoyed?

"Handcuffed." I replied making him even more annoyed. "Hypocrite." He mumbled. "Whatever, Here's the plan." He continued.

"Plan? I'm just gonna blink in and get the file and what do you mean hypocrite what did you do Y/n?" Five butted in.

"Nothing." I waved him away.

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

"I literally just did this yesterday."

"What?" 

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

"Listen to me. You are not going in there. I made a call. That's what a leader does. He leads."

-☂︎-

Diego had been inside the building for a while so Allison decided to call Vanya while Five and I leaded against the wall behind her.

"Hey, do you really think this guy ended the world?" I spoke up after a long period of silence.

"Why else would they tell Hazel and ChaCha to protect him?" Five answered turning slightly to look at me.

"I don't know.. To mess with you? I mean that woman carried a gun in a holster on her ankle. She knew we were gonna fight back."

"Maybe, but it's our only chance of finding out, Y/n." He spoke looking at me.

"Hey, you wanna talk about last night? I have literally never seen you that vulnerable and you chose me to be vulnerable with? Why?"

"No, I don't want to talk about it. It was a moment of weakness and I regret every minute of it." He blurted out looking away from me, his eyes shifting to his shoes.

Diego came around the corner, finally.

"So?"

"You're welcome." Diego said showing us the file.

"Holy shit." Allison spoke taking the file in her hands as we all looked at it.

"What?"

"Harold Jenkins is Leonard Peabody."

-☂︎-

We had just arrived at Leonard's house.

"Be careful, okay? We don't know what Peabody's capable of." Allison spoke as we walked closer to the house.

"Yeah, he didn't seem dangerous when I first saw him. Looked kinda scrawny." Diego stated not convinced this guy could end the fucking world.

"Yeah, well, so are most serial killers and mass murderers." Allison contradicted. (I think thats the right word?)

"I mean, look at him." I continued, pointing to Five, which is when I noticed him walking with a sort of limp while he held his side.

"Thanks." He replied taking it as a compliment.

"Good point. So what's this guy want with Vanya?"

"I don't know."

"How about we ask him after we kill him?" 

"Or maybe just torture him a bit so he'll never forget our faces and see us in his dreams."

"Whoa, whoa. Hey, look, I'm gonna burst through-" Diego spoke not noticing Allison had already made her way in. "You know what? It would be nice for people just to stick to the plan." He continued as Five teleported in.

"Great. Now i'm stuck with her."

"You know you love me." I spoke with a devilish smile making him shiver a little. 

Next minute he ran full force through the window of the door making all the glass shatter as he landed on the floor inside.

"You know the door was unlocked?" I said opening the door and walking inside. "Plus how do you think Allison got in?" 

"Yeah, well, my way works just fine. Spread out. Yell if you, uh you know, you're in trouble."

"Ah, inspiring leadership."

"One of the greats."

"Greatest idiot i've ever met."

We all spread out around the house and started looking for anything out of the ordinary when Allison yelled for us.

"Guys, you need to see this."

-☂︎-

As we made our way up to the attic where Allison was we saw that she had found some sort of shine.

"All our faces are burnt off."

"Holy shit, this guy really hated me." I said walking over to a shrine with just my face and a bunch of knives around it.

"Well, that's not creepy. This guy's got some serious issues."

"Shit." We all said in unison. "This was never about Vanya. This was about us."

Before anyone could say anything else Five collapsed onto the cold hardwood floor. 

"Five!" Allison and I yelled as we ran over to him. "Blood." Allison said as she pulled his shirt up to reveal a shrapnel wound.

"Jesus, Five. Why didn't you say anything?" Diego spoke also seeing the wound.

"You have to keep going. So close..." Five said about to pass out.

"Five! Five! Oh no, don't die now. Who the fuck am I going to piss off now?" I said as Diego picked him up and rushed him out to the car. We got him out to the car and he laid in the backseat his head on my leg.

-☂︎-

"Damn it We should have taken him to the hospital." Allison said as her and Diego carried Five awkwardly in.

"A kid with a shrapnel wound might raise some questions." Five mumbled.

"Yeah, well, so does the murder shrine in Harold Jenkins' attic."  I spoke rushing along side them.

"He's still losing blood. What do we do?"

"We gotta get the shrapnel out." Allison spoke as Diego wondered off.

"Diego, where are you going?" 

"DIEGO, GET YOUR ASS BACK HERE!"

After a few minutes of panicking Mum (I'm Aussie, don't mind it :)) walked over with Diego and offered to help.

"Mum, oh my god." I spoke with my mouth agape.

"Hello dear, it's lovely to see you. I'd love to catch up after I deal with Five." She spoke in a soft voice with a bright smile on her face as she tended to Fives wounds.

-☂︎-

Fives pov

I woke up in my room. I could hear someone breathing heavily so I looked around to find the source. It was Y/n, she was fast asleep in a chair next to my bed. Arms crossed on my bed with her head laying on top of them. She must've been so exhausted to have fallen asleep in that very awkward position. 

She looks so cute when she's asleep.

'you like her don't you, have since we were kids.' Diego's voice came into my mind. No I don't, do I? Fuck. 

I went to move slowly hoping not to wake her but I must've moved too much as she lifted her head and rubbed her eyes.

Back to your POV :)

"Hey Five, how u feeling?" I spoke stretching my arms as they were aching from the way I had slept.

"Pretty good, did you stay here the whole time?" He spoke looking at me.

"Well, yeah. Don't know if you remember but you grabbed my arm before I could leave." I smirked.

"Oh shit, did I?" He spoke covering his face with his hands to hide the blush that was forming. Ngl that was the cutest thing I have ever seen.

"Yep, starting to think all that time in the apocalypse made you realise you're in love with me." I continued, smiling at him and leaning forward slightly.

"You wish."
