I also have the theory (but this is me) that FIVE is Ayu announcing a turning point on her career, where she will be less who people expect her to be and more who she is... Like this EP was a open letter (To her fandom? To her popstar-self? To her past? To all? Don't know) telling through the songs how the problems and worries reunited Ayu with her public and how it denveloped once both started growing apart until she notices she can't keep going through the path of "us" and needed to go through the path of "I". Interesting enough this was the begining of her most "scandalous" interviews, her less comercial studio albums and videos and where she simply seemed to stop caring about what people would say about her personal life. The FIVE could be the 5th part of her career (ASFXX-ABEST / IA-Secret / ABEST2-AC / NL-LS / FIVE-onwards). But again, this is my personal conspiracy theory.
Considering the songs in other deals with different parts of relationships, it could be also about her marriage.
