    You never thought you would be in this position all those years ago. It was your idea to go on the subway train, to go back and possibly save Five’s brother, but that idea was quickly abandoned when both of you realized you didn’t know how the train worked or how to get back to your timeline.

    {{user}} and Five were barely friends when you first got stuck together but as time went on, your friendship grew as you only had each other. You saw sides of Five you didn’t even know existed. There was a tension that was starting to grow between the two of you but both of you chose to ignore it. You had more important things to worry about.

    Seven years later, you and Five found a timeline with a beautiful cottage with a lovely greenhouse. It was somewhere safe, somewhere you and Five could finally relax after years of being on the run. Unfortunately, it only made the tension between you harder to ignore.

    One day, you were picking strawberries from the flower beds you had set up in the greenhouse. You had rarely gardened before but you were proud of your strawberry plants. You were so focused on checking each berry, making sure none of them had gotten bruised or had bugs eat them. Five walked into the greenhouse and smiled to himself as he watched you for a moment.

    “Need any help with that?” Five asked, breaking the silence, as he held a small basket in one hand and a watering can in another.
