I sigh out in defeat on the couch I was sitting on as I lower my head, my elbows resting on my shaking legs as they wrung together against the back of my neck. I ignored everyone talking to each other, trying to keep my panic and anxiousness under control. I pick up a pillow and pelt it at Allison's face as she snaps at Viktor and I earn a few chuckles from that but I couldn't give a shit.
I didn't want to hear Allison's voice.
I throw a pillow at Ben's face when he goes on about being the special ones since we're still alive and he sputters at the impact.
I didn't want to hear Ben's voice.
"We go with the large hard-on particle accelerator." Diego goes on about his stupid plan and I pick up a pillow and throw it at the back of his head. "Ok enough with the pillow throwing!"
"1. It's hadron collider! 2. I'm sick of hearing everyone talk..." I mumble out. Ben goes off about Diego being a moron and Lila butts in but the two brothers go at it on each other's face with the lame comebacks until they start arguing in their mother language.
"Hey! You guys done!?" Five and I both yell out and the brothers jump away from each other.
"The universe is disappearing outside. So you can keep rearranging the deck chairs of the Titanic if it makes you feel better." my boyfriend walks towards his brothers from his looming at the second-floor railings. But the fact remains that we are too late." he sighs as he looks at me sadly.
"Five, come on." Luther says as my boyfriend comes to sit down next to me.
"It's over, Luther. We failed. I failed..." he mumbles the last sentence but I heard him and I hold his hand in my glove covered ones.
"Come on. It can't be over over." Viktor asks and Five just shakes his head.
"Yeah, come on, Five. We gotta figure this out, man." Diego exclaims but it was no use.
"Okay. How about we take a step back? Look at the big picture here." Five claps his hands together, a grim look on his face. "Most of us have spent the last 28 days-minus the couple months we actually had time to ourself to live normal lives-trying to stop the world from ending. What exactly have we accomplished?" everyone goes quiet, looking at each other and I lean back in the couch.
"Well, we made some friends along the way." Luther says, looking at Sloane and I thought it was sweet.
