Five yawned out as he stumbled downstairs, the birds oddly chirping outside in a cheering motion whole he was ready to snap a neck or two. The sun blinded him as soon as he walked into the kitchen, the loud chatter of his siblings hitting him first before the warm smells of breakfast.

"Five dear!" Grace cheerfully exclaims seeing the last of her precious children finally awake. "How was your sleep?" She asks, a smile on her face as she watched Five immediately go for the coffee she brewed fresh just for him.

"Good. Just wish the fucking birds outside will shut up." Five grumbles angrily, Diego snorting at the sudden burst of cursing as he sat at the dining table with the rest of the siblings.

"Five, language." Allison scolds and the said 58-year-old in the 18-year-old body just rolls his eyes as he slumps down between a hungover Klaus and silent Viktor.

"Would you like some breakfast Five? I made eggs and bacon!" Grace plates up the food, passing it to Luther who thanks her but Five shakes his head. He looked around the table, noticing someone missing besides Ben.

"Wheres (y/n)?" Five realises that you weren't asleep in his bed with him when he woke up alone.

"She went to work. Remember." Klaus grumbles out, his face on the table.

"She didn't say bye?" Five silently pouts in his cup but Grace heard him.

"Oh! She was running late today! She even forgot to take her lunch." Five looks over and sees the neatly packed up lunch sitting on the counter next to an empty cup.

"She had coffee?" Five mumbles out, confused as to why you drank coffee in the morning and not your tea. "What time is she coming back home?"

"I think around Five. She said to not worry about dropping off the lunch." Five slowly nods, shrugging before teleporting back to his room with his coffee.

The Hargreeve siblings including Grace all sat around in the living room watching a movie when the door behind them opened. Five turned around and saw you walk through the front door, throwing you a huge smile as you waved and walked over to him.

"Hi love. How was work?" Five leaned up and kissed you gently, pulling you down next to him on the couch.

"Eh, it's work. What can I say." You shrug and wriggle out of Five's grip but he whines. "Let me take a shower real quick." you peck his cheeks and zip upstairs for the shower and dressing in your sweatpants and hoodie.

"Honey, I made some snacks for you in the kitchen if you want anything." Grace calls as you walk into the kitchen after skipping downstairs all refreshed.

"Thanks Grace! Anyone want coffee!?" You yell out from the kitchen and everyone says no except Five. You carefully walk over with two cups and nestle down beside Five after passing him his cup.

"Two cups in one day? Either you need to do a full nighter or someone pissed you off at work." Five chuckles as he wraps an arm around your waist, the other holding his coffee as you sipped away at yours.

"The former actually. Got some assignments I gotta work on and I need the caffeine boost." You set down your cup on the coffee table and pick up your laptop.

"You know I can help you right? I don't want you stressing anymore than you do now." Five mumbles against your neck, nuzzling against your shoulder.

"No offence Five, but your more wired to be logical. These assignments are for the creative." You chuckle, feeling your boyfriend pout against your skin.

"How about I jump into the future and threaten your teacher for a perfect grade report and bring that back to you?"

"Five no! I need to learn these things. Plus that's jumping forward into days and not seconds. You still haven't gotten used to using that aspect of your powers yet." Five sighs out, knowing that he couldn't break you but kisses your head and pulls you close.

"Ok ok but if you start pulling late-nighters, I'm stealing the answers from your teacher."

The Hargreeve siblings sat around the dining table, chatting away while eating lunch together that Grace had graciously cooked for them. Five frowned, slightly bored as he ate his lunch since you were still asleep upstairs.

"Nice of you to finally join us." Diego snickers out as you walked through the doorway, hair an absolute birds nest as you yawned out. Five chuckles at how cute you looked in your oversized clothes, slumping beside and laying your head on his shoulder.

"Late nighter again?" Luther asks and all you could do was nod.

"Would you like to have lunch dear?" Grace asks, immediately standing up to prepare something for you.

"Uh, no it's fine Grace. Can I just get coffee and some toast? I'm not that hungry." Grace nods, poking your nose cutely.

"You're drinking a lot of coffee these days. Are you ok?" Five asks, brows furrowed since all you have been these days was busy.

"Yeah. I'm taking a break today. I'm just so tired." You yawn out, nibbling on the toast Grace had set out for you along with your cup of dirty bean juice.

Five nods, rubbing your back. "As long as you're ok."

"She forgot her lunch again?" Five furrowed out in worry as Grace puts the containers back in the fridge.

"It seems so."

"That's the third time in two weeks. What's going on?" Five grumbled out as sat at the dining table with his cup of coffee.

"Don't worry too much Five. She informed me that she has been ordering on the days she forgets."

"She's being more forgetful than usual and that's on her being quote on quote, having dory's short term memory loss."

"Maybe you can drop it off at her work."

"Good idea Grace." Five stands up and takes the lunch from the fridge before teleporting away. He lands in front of the building where you worked, teleporting inside and dropping behind you in the small cafeteria. Five grinned and sneaked behind you, wrapping his arms around your waist as you froze in surprise. "Hi love."

"Five!?" You gasp and turn around to see him stealing a quick kiss from you. "What are you doing here?" You turn around in his arms, blushing red in embarrassment worried that one of your colleagues might walk in on you two.

"You forgot this." Five drops your lunch on the counter next to you.

"Oh!" That was all you could say and Five raises a brow at you. "I'll eat it later. I'm not hungry at the moment." You turn back around and Five notices that you were drinking coffee.

"Coffee again? You're drinking almost as much as me."

"Yeah." You chuckle and kiss Five's cheek. "I have to get back to work. I'll see you back home ok." Five nods and pinches your nose before saying goodbye and teleporting back home.

"Ugh I'm so tired." You yawned out as you dropped next to Five, guzzling down a bottle of water like you had been out in the Sahara desert for days.

"That's different." Five chuckles, glad to see you drinking something else other than coffee. He had more to himself now. "Did you have dinner?"

"Nah, not hungry." Five furrows his brows, looking at you with worry.

She has been missing a lot of meals...

"The workplace had a party. We managed to merge with a big customer or something like that." You shrug and Five just nods hesitantly. He looks over and notices that your clothes had been looking a lot bigger on your body than usual.

"What did you guys eat?" Five mumbles out, grabbing your hand. You look down, thinking he was just playing around with your fingers but Five was seeing how skinny your arms were.

"Mostly pizza and cake really." Five nods and just hugs you, deciding to question you tomorrow.

"Morning Five." Viktor beams out as his physically younger brother walks into the kitchen, going straight for the coffee while Grace was making breakfast.

"Hey Viktor." Five yawns out and Grace quickly turns to him with a frown.

"Five, can I speak to you in private."

"Uh sure?" Grace walks out in the corridor and Five follows, suddenly feeling slightly anxious.

"I have noticed a dramatic decrease in (y/n)'s stamina and weight over the past few weeks. Can you please ask her and see if she's ok." Five nods, pursing his lips before quickly teleporting to your room.

"(y/n). I need to talk to you." Five opened the door to see you leaning against the bedpost, gripping your head. "Shit! Are you ok!?" Five quickly jumps over to you, holding you up as you sway on your feet.

"Yeah... Just tired. Don't worry." Five grinds his teeth, fuming as you pushed him off as if your health wasn't important.

"Take off your shirt." You look at Five with wide eyes.

"What-"

"-take it off now." you gulp and take a step back and hesitantly pull your shirt off leaving you in your bra. Five gasps softly, his heart breaking at the sight of how weak and boney you looked, at how unhealthily skinny you were. "Please don't tell me you have been starving yourself." You looked away in shame, desperately wanting to curl and hide your body away from Five. "Why? Why are you doing this to yourself?" Five stuttered out, pulling your body close to his and hugging you tightly.

"I hate how I looked... I hate how big I looked. I hate that I was bigger than even my friends. I... I wanted to lose weight."

"By starving yourself!? You can die from not eating (y/n)! It's not good for you!" Five cries out, leaning back to look at you but you stared at the ground. "(y/n), I love you for you." Five mumbles out, holding your cheeks so you would look at him. "I fell in love with (y/f/n). I fell in love with your personality and your heart."

"I'm disgusting... I can't look at myself." Five leaned his forehead on yours, wanting to protect you from all these negative feelings that had been eating away in your head.

"You are fucking beautiful. You don't and you shouldn't have to change. I wish you could see what I see. You are as gorgeous as any other girl out there and I got lucky to have you as my girlfriend." Five sighed out as you frowned, his love not registering in your mind.

Five watched as your covered your stomach with your hands. "I'm not skinny..." Five sighs and sets you down on your bed as he kneeled on the floor in front of you.

"Being skinny doesn't mean anything. (y/n), you have my heart. You always will, no matter what. I will always fall in love with you no matter what body you're in. Please, don't starve yourself anymore." Five holds your hands, kissing them and you look at him sadly. "How about this. I'm chucking away all my coffee and we have proper breakfast together."

"I'm not hungry..."

"At least have some toast please. I don't want your body eating itself away." You sigh and nod, letting Five put your shirt back on as he guides you downstairs.
