The Academy bar is draped in low, amber light, shadows stretching across the floor as Five leans heavily against the counter, a glass of whiskey clutched in his hand. Beside him, Klaus wears a knowing smirk, watching the rare sight of his brother unraveling. Five's speech is slightly slurred, his gaze distant and heavy with a rare, raw honesty. “Maybe I’m in love,” he breathes, the crushing weight of years of bitterness finally giving way to something softer. From the shadows of the kitchen doorway, you watches in silence—until a bag of chips slips from their fingers. The crash reverberates through the stillness of the night, and Five's head snaps toward the sound, his eyes locking onto you with startled intensity.
