~~Five's P.O.V~~
I woke up to a loud bell ringing in the hallway, I then felt Esme hug me tighter trying to stay asleep. The door then opened and Klaus had a goofy smile on his face.
"What the hell, Klaus?!" I whisper shouted making sure not to wake up the sleeping beauty in my arms.
"Oh my god, you two really can't keep your hands off each other. I just wanted to say we are having a family meeting in the kitchen." I rolled my eyes.
"Fine. Just get out." I motioned him to leave.
"Alrighty, I hope you had fun last night and used protection." He said pointing the bell at me. I felt my face go red out of embarrassment and anger, before I could say anything he was hit with a sapphire mist and the door shut. I looked down to see Esme snuggle back into my chest.
"I needed five more minutes." She said.

I had gotten out of my bloodied cloths and into my pajamas since I needed a break from that damn uniform. I walked into Esme's room to see her organizing her books and singing Dreams by Fleetwood Mac. I hugged her for behind and put my head in the crook of her neck. She put her hands over mine and we swayed for about thirty seconds before she spoke.
"I'm hungry, so let's go eat." We walked hand in hand down to the kitchen, I saw Luther about to take a sip of coffee so I took it from him and sat down. Esme started making a bowl of cereal and sat next to me on my left. I took a sip of the coffee and gaged.
"Jesus. Who do I gotta kill to get a decent cup of coffee?" I put it on the table and leaned back in my chair.
"Can we get started please?" Luther mumbled.
"Anyone seen any of the others? Diego? Allison? No?" Klaus then holds up a spatula and started hitting it in the table. "All right then, this is the closest thing to a quorum... that we're gonna get. Now listening up. There's no easy way to say this, so I'm just gonna spit it out. Yeah." He paused and we all looked at him expectantly.
"Klaus."
"I conjured Dad last night." Esme spit out her mouthful of cereal back into the bowl and we all gave her a disgusted look.
"Sorry." She said as she wiped her mouth and took her bowl to the sink.
"Wait, I thought you said you haven't been able to conjure anyone in years." Luther pointed out as I took another sip of the gross coffee.
"Ah, yes, but I'm sober. Ta-da!" Klaus said. "I got clean yesterday, to talk to a special, and then ended up having this... conversation with dear old daddy himself."
"Has anyone got some aspirin?" Luther asked.
"Top shelf." Esme said as she sat down.
"Next to the crackers." I added.
"Hey, hey, hey. This is serious, guys, all right? This really happened, I swear."
"Okay, fine. I'll play. What did the old man have to say?" I asked since I didn't believe him.
"Well, he gave me the usual lecture about my appearance and my failures in life. Yada yada yada. No surprise there. Even the afterlife couldn't soften a hardass like Dad, right? But he did mention something about his murder, or lack thereof, because... he killed himself." Wow, didn't see that coming.
"I don't have time for your games Klaus." Luther said getting up.
"I'm telling you the truth, Luther. I'm telling you the truth." Klaus said trying to convince him.
