As soon as Five's song is finished mine is next.

I grab the mic, adjusting it to my height as the song starts.

My feet are aching

And your back is pretty tired

And we've drunk a couple of bottles, babe

And set out grief aside

I feel everyone's eyes on me as I sing but I pay no mind to it, continuing.

The papers say it's doomsday

The button has been pressed

We're gonna nuke each other up boys

'Till old Satan stand impressed

And here is our final night alive

When I get to the chorus I close my eyes, letting my heart sing.

As the earth burns to the ground

Oh, girl, it's you that I lie with

As the atom bomb locks in

Oh, it's you I watch TV with

As the world, as world caves in.

I open my eyes to see Five staring at me with a look in his eyes I can't recognize. I continue on, trying not to think much of it.

You put your finest suit on

I paint my fingernails

We're going out in style, babe

And everything's on sale

We creep on extinction

I pull your arms right in

I weep and say, "Goodnight, love"

While my organs pack it in

And here it is our final night alive

As the earth burns to the ground

Oh, girl, it's you that I lie with

As atom locks in

Oh, it's you I watch TV with

As the world, as the world caves

Oh, it's you that I lie with

As atom bomb locks in

Yes, it's yours I welcome death with

As the world,

As the world, caves in

As the world caves in.

I open my eyes to see everyone staring at me when all of a sudden everyone starts cheering.

"Yeah!"

"That's my sister!"

"Go Y/n!"

Even Diego whistled.

Five walks up to me, the same look in his eyes, as he helps me down the steps, holding my hand.

He welcomes me in a hug, his scent filling my nose as I take in all of him, holding him close.

"That was wonderful." He whispers in my ear.

Maybe Sloane won't be the only one finding love.
