CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR: PROMISE ME 

"We all have past, we all made choices that weren't the best ones. None of us are completely innocent, but we get a fresh start everyday to be a better person than we were yesterday. So let go of yesterday and move forward in life"

 So let go of yesterday and move forward in life"

When Five walked out of the bedroom, he could hear Lila and Diego.

Diego was laying on the couch almost unconscious while Lila was sitting by him, cauterizing a stab wound on his side.

Diego was gasping and screaming as Lila was burning the wound.

"Shh! Don't move. This thing is very finicky" Lila said "What happened?" Diego asked "I saved your stupid life" Lila answered "Were you following me?" Diego asked "Uh, hey, how about a little gratitude knife boy. If it wasn't for me, you'd be dead. That's twice now, by the way" Lila said.

Diego's eyes widened as he lifted his head before he looked down at himself to noticed that his clothes was missing and he only had a bed sheet to cover himself.

"Where are my clothes? The hell happened to my clothes?" he asked "I said, don't move" Lila said but Diego began to move and Lila dug the tool into his wound making a sizzling sound causing Diego to scream and groaning in pain before he laid back down, moaning from the pain. "There. That's better" Lila said.

Five let out a sigh as he entered the room "Oh. He isn't dead" he said as he was looking at Diego while he had his hands in his pockets.

"Disappointed?" Lila asked as Five walked towards the coffee table in front of the couch "Oh, to see you? Always" he said with a fake smile as he grabbed a white rag before walking back to stand by the doorway, pressing the rag against the wound on the side of his neck.

"So much hostility in such a tiny package. Did you cut yourself shaving? I could teach you to shave like a big boy" Lila said and Five let out a sigh "No, I just ran into an old family friend" he said as he took the rag off his neck before looking at it.

"Where is Y/n? Did you leave her behind?" Lila asked "No, I would never do that, beside she is passed out in the bed" Five answered "Did you knock her out?" Lila asked "No" Five answered "Did you hurt her?" she asked "No" Five said, shaking his head.

"Were you so wild in bed that you took the energy out of her?" Lila asked "Yea...I mean no" Five said.

"Then why is she passed out in the bed?" Lila asked "That is none of your business" he said and Lila narrowed her eyes at him.

"I think you ask a lot of questions about Y/n and you worried about her, why?" Five asked "'Cause even so I have just met her, we are a lot like each other" Lila answered "No, you're not" Five said "And why is that?" Lila asked "It's a long list in how she is different from you but one of them is that I trust her and she is not crazy like you" he said and she rolled her eyes.
