#ghost fives

Fives looks at the bracelet. “You’re… sure this will work?” He asks softly.

“Are you really doubting me?” Tech says with a little smile, before placing his hand on Fives’ shoulder. “Does this answer your question?”

Fives gasps at the first touch he’s felt in years, the sensations are muted and he can’t feel heat but… oh force. Oh force. If he could cry, he would. And an unneeded sob leaves his chest as he throws his arms around Tech and hugs him tight. “Thank you! Oh thank you!”

Tech smiles softly, holding Fives close. “Of course, you’re my brothers fiancé, my husbands twin and… my best friend.” He says softly. “Though I do not say it enough.”

Fives smiles. “I know, Tech. I know.” He shivers. “I need to go find Hunter and Omega!” He says excitedly.

Tech hums, adjusting his goggles. “Yes, you do. And after you owe your twin a visit too.”

“Of course, whoever I find first!” Fives floats fast out of the room, phasing right through the wall to the outside. It’s a nice, sunny day on Pabu and he knows just where Hunter and Omega should be.

“Now reel it in nice and easy, just like that.” Hunter smiles as he helps Omega reel in her first big catch of the day, or… what they think is big.

“Awww.” Omega coos once they pull the fish up. “It’s a baby!” She grins. “Can we let it go, Buir?”

Hunter laughs. “Of course.” He takes the tiny fish off the hook and hands it to Omega to release back into the water.

Omega grins and gently drops it in, watching it swim away. “Let’s try again!”

Hunter is just about to answer when they both hear Fives call.

“Hunter! Omega!” Fives floats down to them.

“Pap- ahhh!” Omega squeals as she’s picked up into strong arms and held close to someone’s chest. She frowns, looking up to see her Papa smiling down at her with the happiest smile. She frowns as she holds onto his chest, tears filling her eyes. “Papa!” She hugs him tight, never having hugged her papa before. She can’t believe it. This can’t be happening. A hand comes up to cup the back of her head and run through her hair.

“Oh baby girl!” Fives holds her close, and his heart would be pounding if it were still beating.

Hunter stares with wide eyes, tears pricking at them. Is this real? Has their dreams been answered? “Fives?” He asks softly, taking a step forward as he drops the reel onto the dock.

Fives looks up, smiling brightly as he moves Omega into one arm, landing on the dock and then pulling Hunter into a tight hug. Their first hug ever as a couple. Well… ever period.

Hunter sobs softly, curling into Fives. They’re happy tears, he’s just so happy. “Oh Fives.” He cups Fives’ face.

Fives leans into Hunters hand, smiling softly as he lets out the softest sigh. “Hi love, we can touch now.” He whispers with glee.

Omega kisses his cheek. “Love you, Papa.” She sniffles and snuggles close. “You’re cool.” She says softly, feeling his skin.

“I am.” Fives hums, kissing her head.

Hunter grins, before a realization makes his heart pound in his chest. He stops hugging Fives, and cups his face in his hand. “Fives, do you know what we can do now?” He asks softly, blinking back tears.

“Hug, cuddle and touch.” Fives grins.

“Yes… and this.” Hunter leans up and catches Fives in a breathtaking kiss… their first kiss. It’s a little cold, Fives isn’t warm. But… it’s perfect. Just perfect to Hunter, the way their lips lock together as if knowing eachother for years.

Fives sighs, his eyes closed as they kiss. He hasn’t kissed in so long… yet it feels like this is the first time he’s ever been kissed. He’s never kissed anyone like this. Hunter is his soulmate, and the kiss is anything but the cold and emotionless kisses he used to share during his one night stands. It is… electric. And warm, full of life and makes his non-existent heart just burst with love for this man. It ends all too soon when Hunter needs air, and Fives would have definitely deepened it if not for Omega being there.

Hunter grins as he hugs Fives close and kisses his nose. “This is the best gift I could ever ask for.”

“The best gift any of us could ask for.” Omega adds aw she cuddles between them.

Fives smiles as he hugs his two favourite people close, so happy to finally have this. “Well have to thank Tech later, I’ll cook him lasagna.” He hums.

“Sounds perfect.” Hunter kisses him sweetly again, never getting enough of it.

Fives sighs, and as he kisses the love of his afterlife and holds their daughter he knows that this is the only place he ever wants to be.
