The Apocalypse Lovers ((Five Hargreeves X Reader))

Explain

We all walk into the kitchen, sitting down at the table. Five starts making a sandwich, and I ask if he can make me one too.

"What's the date. The exact date." Five says as he's grabbing bread.

"The 24th." Vanya answers.

"Of what." Five snaps.

"March," she says.

Five pauses, then says "Good." He continues making sandwiches.

"So, are we going to talk about what just happened?" Luther says. 

Five ignores him.

"It's been 17 years."  Luther stands up, getting angry. 

"It's been a lot longer than that." Five spat, then jumped to the shelves to get marshmallows.

"I did not miss that," Luther mumbled

"Where did you go?" Diego asked

"The future." Five jumps back, opening the bag of mini marshmallows "It's shit by the way."

"Called it!" Klause said, raising his finger.

"I should have listened to the old man. Jumping through space is one thing, but jumping through time is a toss of the dice." Five says, getting the peanut butter. He looks up at Klause.

"Nice dress"

Klause giggles. "Why thank you"

Vanya holds up her hand, confused.

"Wait so how did you get back?" she asked.

"In the end, I had to project my consciousness forward into a suspended quantum state version of myself that exists across every possible instinct of time."

"That makes no sense," Diego says, brows pulled together.

"Well, it would if you were smarter." Five says, scraping the last of the peanut butter out of the jar.

Diego goes to stand up but Luther holds him down.

"So how long were you there?" He asks.

"45 years, give or take," I say.

Luther and Diego both sit back down. Luther's eyes travel to me, then to Five.

"So what are you saying? You're both 58?"

"No. Our consciences are 58. Apparently, our bodies are 13 again."

He finished making the peanut butter and marshmallow sandwiches, handing one to me.

"Wait so how does that even work?" Vanya asks as I take a huge bite out of the sandwich.

"How I have missed food," I mumble.

Five ignores Vanya's question and picks up the newspaper on the table.

"Guess I missed the funeral." Five says.

"How'd you know about that?" Luther askes quickly

I laugh. "What part of the future do you not understand?" 

"Heart failure, huh?" Five says, reading the paper.

"Yeah," Diego says at the same time Luther says "No."

I roll my eyes.

"Nice to see nothings changed." Five says, dropping the paper. Then he goes to leave the room.

"That's it? That's all you have to say?" Allison asks

"What else is there to say?" Then, he's gone.

There was a moment of silents before Luther says

"Well...that was interesting."

I scoff. I stand up from my chair, looking down at what I am wearing. I have on the same white with a black poke a dots shirt and a pair of underwear.

"I'm going to change." I finish my sandwich, then go upstairs.
