1.
The first time you meet the family is on their birthday. You want to spend time with Klaus but he prattles on about a family birthday party that was sprung on him. You're disheartened until he brightly suggests that you come along. You put up token protests but cave quickly to his cajoling. You've always wanted to meet his siblings. You both show up to the academy in matching outfits that Klaus had insisted on. Your presence does surprise the rest of the siblings, but your affable nature endears them to you quickly.
Allison is going around taking pictures of everyone and you laugh merrily at the faces Five and Viktor pull at being forced into multiple shots. You're still laughing when she announces that she needs a picture of "the cute couple". Before you can protest, Klaus is hauling you into a hug and pressing a kiss to your cheek as the flash goes off. When your vision clears, Allison has already moved on to her next victims.

The next time you see some of Klaus' siblings is at one of Viktor's recitals. When Klaus had phoned you up to tell you that Viktor had put away an extra ticket for you, you were pleasantly surprised. You'd had a nice conversation with him at their birthday but you never expected this. After the show, all of you crowd around a flushing Viktor, heaping praise upon his wonderful performance. As the rest of the family leaves, you pull Viktor aside and thank him for extending the invitation to you. He gives you a sweet smile, "anyone who's Klaus' family is my family too".

You're no longer a stranger to these events with the Hargreeves. They've accepted you into the fold. You've gone from being a plus one, to one of them. While Klaus is still your closest friend, it's no longer a surprise to see you hanging out with any of the other siblings. No one bats an eye when Lila insists on having you be a bridesmaid at her and Diego's wedding. You happily accept, touched that you mean that much to her.
As part of the bridal party, you guys get there a lot earlier than the men do, in order to work on your glamorous looks. At some point Lila shouts "hey, when's your boyfriend going to be here? Diego's on his own and honestly starting to freak out, which is freaking me out." You simply shrug in response. "He'd mentioned he might run a little behind, but don't worry, he'll be here. You know he'd never miss his brother's wedding for anything!"

There's no event this time. It's just you sitting around the library reading books and sipping on your steaming mug of tea. Luther spots you and stops by, asking after your other half. You simply shrug and say he's at work. As you dive back into your book, you miss Luther's confused look before he wanders off.
5.
It's one of those days where you don't have much to do, so of course you're spending it holed up in his room with him. The two of you are coming down from a round of rather enthusiastic sex when there's banging on the door. "I hope you're decent in there!" Comes Klaus' voice from outside the door. The two of you hurriedly dress as you hear the lock being picked.
When he enters, Klaus is on the receiving end of a murderous glare. He wastes no time with excuses and simply tells Five he'll return you later as he pulls you out the door by the forearm. The two of you run into Diego in the hall as Klaus is hurriedly explaining the nature of his yarn emergency. Diego simply takes in your rumpled state and gives you a smirk, but before he can say anything, you're already being pulled round the corner towards Klaus' bedroom where the 'emergency' is.
+1:
It's Christmas at the umbrella academy and you're running late to the party. You rush in with your bags of gifts, hastily apologizing for your tardiness. You spot Klaus first and head over to give him a hug, not noticing that he was under one of the few mistletoe sprigs that had been put up.
As you let him go, you hear wolf whistles and cheers from the culprits. Luther, Diego and Allison are pointing at the mistletoe, laughing, insisting you have to kiss. You roll your eyes and press a kiss to Klaus' cheek as he pretends to swoon.
You're about to leave it at that when Diego shouts, " aww, come on! Give us a real kiss!" You dart your eyes over to Five and if looks could kill, Diego would be very very dead. You laugh nervously as Klaus is shaking his head vehemently. Allison joins in on the heckling, "come on now Klaus, you've never been shy, this should be nothing!"
Before Klaus can even respond to that, there is a surge of blue light and a *thwoop* sound as Five has blinked from his corner and right to you. Klaus scrambles out of the way quickly. The others start to protest, but before it can get far Five is dragging you into a very heated kiss, his hand sliding down to rest possessively on your ass. The room goes deathly silent. You notice and try to break the kiss but five just grunts unhappily and drags you back in.
The silence is broken by Klaus' hysterical laughter as he takes in the faces of his other siblings. "Did you think WE were dating this whole time?"
-THE END-
