Klaus froze for a second, not sure if this was real or fantasy. Was Five really here, kissing him? Five had made the first move this time? He was almost overjoyed just from that fact alone. He didn't expect to crack that shell for a while.
A few soft pecks quickly turned to much more when Klaus' tongue prodded at Five's lips, begging for entrance. Five obliged, still unsure though. He didn't want to look like a fool, but found it rather easy to mimic Klaus' actions, as their tongues began swirling sloppily around in their mouths.
Klaus separated from his brother's grip, pulling back to look him in the eye, as he asked, "What are we doing here?"
"I thought we were kissing." Five replied.
"Yeah, but... what is going to happen... after?" Klaus asked, as both boys moved to sit up on the chair.
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, tomorrow are you going to avoid me like you regret this? Again?"
"Hey," Five replied, "I'm sorry about that, okay? I just..."
He had hesitated and Klaus knew it was him struggling to open up and just say what was going on, so he urged him on, "You can tell me. Anything."
Five looked down into his eyes, warily, not sure if he could say it yet. A confession like that... man, just the thought was too much. He decided he would try to get it out slowly, "I just needed to figure things out. Everything is... so confusing to me."
"Like what, per se?" Klaus asked, and Five then knew he wasn't going to be able to handle this the slower way. He needed to just confess it already.
"Like, I have fucking feelings for you, okay, Klaus?" Five yelled, frustrated, hanging his head and yanking at his own hair. "You are my fucking brother and this is so wrong!"
"Five..." he urged the other to look at him, before he continued. "These last few minutes... they didn't feel wrong to me. In fact, it's felt like the first right thing I have ever done. What about you? Huh? Deep down inside, did you think what you were doing was wrong?" Five tried to contemplate the question, but Klaus stopped him, resting both hands on the side of Five's face, so he couldn't look anywhere else. "Nuh uh. No over thinking this... Was it wrong?"
"No." Five replied, "No, it wasn't."
Klaus kissed him softly. "You need to realize, you can open up to me. And whatever feelings that are scaring you, I guarantee I am feeling too."
"You are?"
Klaus could only smile endearingly at his brother, "Of course, I am. I'm falling in love with you, silly. And I don't care what anyone else says about it, this is right, Five."
"But what happens when they find out!?"
"None of them have the right to say shit, especially Allison and Luther." He replied.
"What about Dad?"
"Well, then, we have to remind Daddy Dearest, that... he bangs a robot! He seriously can't lecture us about healthy relationships."
Five grabbed him on either side of his face, with the hugest smile that he'd ever seen, and pulled him into a kiss. "You promise?"
"Promise. No take backs. No eraseys."
They kissed a few more times before Five placed his head on his shoulder and began falling asleep. Klaus knew they'd get in trouble. Their father and his monitors, after all. But he would just tell his Dad that he'd had a nightmare and Five was helping, or something. He'd probably need a better excuse, but he wasn't too concerned about that, at the moment. The only thing that mattered was right there in his arms.
The next morning, they had awoken early, at the first light. Five blinked them back to Klaus' room, then after a quick kiss, flashed back to his own. Later on, their father had asked to see them after breakfast. Klaus had used the nightmare excuse and he could tell their dad didn't buy it. But he let the boys go, anyway, his punishment being that they'd get an extra hour of personal training that week. Klaus definitely wasn't happy about that, but he'd manage, all things considered.
When they left his study, they saw Diego leaning up against the wall, twirling a knife around in his fingers, with a smug smile on his face.
"What the hell do you want, asshole?" Five asked.
"You know, Dad has cameras on the roof too. Not sure why he let you guys off so easy. He just reamed into Ally and Luther."
"So... everyone knows? How?" Klaus asked, as he and Five tensed up with fear.
"Vanya saw Grace showing the footage to Dad this morning, and you know how much she likes to spread people's personal business around." Diego replied. "She told us all this morning."
Five was pissed, he would definitely have to find a cockroach or something to put in her bed later. How could she do that?
"So... is everyone freaking out about it? Do you, like... hate us now?" Klaus asked, with fear and sadness in his eyes.
"No, no, dude. No one hates you. It's little weird, I must admit..." Diego began, "...But it's cool with me. Just, you know... don't be doing that shit in front of me, okay?"
Both boys eased at this and agreed. As much as they both had said they didn't need their family's acceptance, they were happy their, dare they say, relationship wasn't turned away by the others. They were in love, and they realized, that maybe, just maybe, they could finally be happy.
