[ Vanya is, as often, reading him right. To understand Five one needs to pay attention to his body language and the things he doesn't say rather than the venomous sarcasm that often drips from his tongue.
Touching others comes easier to him if he does so while reacting out of protectiveness. That's why wrapping himself around Vanya now that his body size allows it feels so natural. Five can see the other shop assistant trying to hide her grin behind a hand at her coworker's frustrated attempt at...whatever she was doing. She meets his eyes by pure chance and takes the opportunity to wink at him. Five only glares harder.
He blames the shop assistant for distracting him and that's why he shivers lightly when there's a hot breath against the shell of his ear. His attention goes back to Vanya, their noses almost brushing when he turns his head and Five purses his lips. ]
We can't know that. She's acting really weird and trying to separate us.
