You wake up in the bed under the covers, you reach for Five but don't feel anything, you look around the room and he isn't there. You just get up and get ready, you shower and do your hygiene and get dressed.

You can wear whatever you want

You go look around for him and see him sleeping on top of the kitchen counter.

"Five. Five, wake up." you say and shake him and he groans

"Why?" he asks and looks around "What did I get up to last night? What was the old man up to?"

"Five? What are you talking about?"

"Last night, I saw Dad making a deal with someone but I don't know what it was about or who it was with."

"Oh, well do you remember other stuff?"

"I remember my speech, drinking, and I remember our special night together." he smiles, he stands up and puts his hands on your waist and kisses you

"Five. Five, I love you, but you reek of alcohol, go take a shower."

~~~~~~~~~~~~

After Five takes a shower, he takes another bottle of alcohol with him and he brings you both to sit on the edge of what's left of the world, you lean your head on his shoulder while you both watch the beauty of the universe collapsing, it definitely is a bad thing, but it looks beautiful, then Reggie walks up to you both

"Reginald." five says

"I take it you know why I'm here." reginald says

"How 'bout I save you some time? Give you the "no" upfront. I'm not the least bit interested in this bullshit plan you've been cooking."

"It's not, as you so colorfully call it, bullshit. Mind if I join you two?"

"We'd rather you didn't..." you say

"Actually, appreciate some...solitude, just us two." five says but reggie sits next to him anyways

"Mm-hmm." reggie says

"It seems we won't get any." five hands reggie his bottle of alcohol and reggie takes a drink

"Dear God!"

"Mm-hmm. Louis XIII, it ain't."

"I want to try it." you take a sip and swallow it but you start coughing "How do you drink this stuff? Gross!" you say

"I've had worse." reginald says "It is impressive, isn't it?"

"All the ways we could have screwed the pooch, this way is the most complete. I'm relieved, actually. This time, everything goes. There's no Commission, no leaping away. No life spent going mad with the desperation to see a familiar face." five says and you lean your head back on his shoulder and he plays with your hair
