Summary
The title is taken from a song by Mazzy Star, which ran through my mind as I wrote this. Unlike the majority of viewers I didn"t hate the Five/Lila storyline but instead saw it as a natural progression for these characters. I feel the problem was that the show didn"t have enough time to delve into the years they spent together and thus left many questioning how they ever got to a point where they"d get together romantically. At first I wanted to just fill the gaps but then I had this crazy idea. What if they had been destined for each other all along? What if Diego was actually the one doing the cucking, unbeknownst to all 3 of them? “How?” you may ask… Well, dear reader, venture with me into this alternate universe of The Umbrella Academy… (I haven"t written for an extremely long time and I have never done a fanfic so I apologize in advance if I"m rusty. I hope that even if the mechanics aren"t great at least you enjoy the story I have to tell. Cheers!)

Summary
“The texts had started out small, innocent enough. Messages about family plans, invitations to family dinners, updates about Allison"s divorce from Ray, Klaus" newfound sobriety. But gradually, the nature of the texts shifted. They started coming at night, when Diego was asleep.”
Before the subway, before the time jump—before they were Nancy and Jerome—Lila and Five found themselves in the start of an emotional affair.
Not a love story, but a story about love.
(Set between Season 3 and Season 4)
Prequel to my own series / Lead-in to Season 4 / Can be read as platonic or romantic.Series
