Vehemence + Dependence REVISED - an Original Quintessential Quintuplets Story

15 - Farewell

Weird. It's totally the Nakanos. But what do they want?

The (L/N)s took their seats near the front of the plane. The captain and the crew did their usual safety demonstration. The plane took off with no problems.

(Y/N) was sipping on his fresh airplane water when someone approached him. It was one of the trench coat people.

"Excuse me, sir?" they said in an obviously faked deep voice.

"Hi, can I help you?"

"Actually, no. Thank you for your time." They proceeded to suddenly turn and walk back where they came from. And about 30 seconds later, all five of them returned with their hoods off.

Surprise, surprise, it was the Nakanos.

(Y/N) was surprised. "I— um— hi, Nakanos."

They sheepishly waved.

"Wait, why are you here?!"

Nino told the other four to go back; the aisle was small and was supposed to be clear. She then stepped closer to him. "(Y/N), it's a long story—"

"Just tell me! Why the hell are you on my flight back home?!"

"(Y/N), calm down."

"How am I supposed to stay calm when five absolutely insane girls booked a flight to they don't even know where?!"

She scoffed. "We know where! We're going to... To..."

He raised his eyebrows in doubt.

"Ichika booked the tickets, okay?! I shouldn't be the one held responsible to know stuff."

(Y/N) blinked hard and took a deep breath. "Okay, okay... Let me get this straight. You five are on this flight and are going with me and Ally to [country of origin]?"

Nino slowly nodded.

(Y/N) spoke very slowly. "Why?"

"We wanted to see your country!"

"Tell me the real reason."

She sighed. "I wanted to come to spend some time with you. They wanted to come to convince your parents to let you come back."

"You didn't want me to come back?"

"No, I did, just... ugh, whatever. The five of us want you to come back."

"Why, though?"

"One, because Dad said that we'd have to get another tutor, which isn't ideal; and two, because you're a very good friend of ours and, I admit, our lives would be much less interesting without you."

(Y/N) smiled. "I appreciate that a lot, but was it really worth booking five plane tickets?"

"You see, we're not the best at saving our money."

"I can tell. But let me ask you a legit question: if you wanted to talk to my parents, couldn't you have texted them? Or called them? I happily would've put them on the phone for you."

"..."

He raised his eyebrows, genuinely surprised that they didn't think of that option.

Nino stayed silent.

"Well... I guess you'll be staying in [country of origin] for a bit, eh?"

(Y/N) was sitting on one side of his dining room table with Ally and his parents; the Quints were on the other side.

He had no idea how he had gotten into this position, but he figured he would play along. He didn't not want to go back, but he was hesitant. "So... Mom, Dad, these are the Nakanos. They're quintuplets and the tutees I've told you about."
