[Hiatus] The New Number || F. Hargreeves

vi. Nothing New

※※※※※

There was nothing like spending a whole day trying to keep Klaus sober at least until he could forget about the 20 bucks, so letting him talk as Ambrose fed him food was enough but he did miss being around the people he called his siblings.

"Ok, Ambrose we gotta talk."

"About?" Ambrose said as he ate the last of his food.

"Five what else. I mean it's been crazy right? Seeing him come here then spending time with him then learning about the end is crazy."

"It's more of an understatement Klaus. It's fucking insane."

"Do you not believe Five?"

"I don't want to believe him but I have to because look at how he was acting even when I was alone with him, you could see how different he was. Five is not an imposter that is Five and he suffered alone thinking he'll never see us again."

"Hm, so you believe him, but you're scared."

"I think Five is more afraid for us than we actually are. I mean he talked about how all of you are dead. I couldn't see the day that all of you were dying, I'd just be broken."

"Aren't we all fucked up we all were raised by daddy dearest!"

"I guess."

"Look, you should really tell Five how you feel. I think it'd humble him." Klaus chuckled as he continued to eat.

Ambrose just shook his head, he didn't see a point where telling Five of his feelings would make a difference it would only make things worse especially if Five could feel the same but the idea of Five feeling the same and having another drove Ambrose nuts. He didn't even notice it unlike Klaus when he started crying. He felt completely helpless and was scared as hell the idea of listing his second family and losing Five again was the idea of what hell could possibly look like to Ambrose.

"Hey, Hey! Calm down. Let's breathe. I'm not Five, I have no clue how to stop you from your attacks." Klaus attempted to wipe his tears away.

"It's actually useless. I think we really can't do shit, Klaus, none of this matters unless you guys-" Ambrose could only cry more he just started seeing everyone around him dying suddenly like some vision that was mixed with his memories of seeing his family members die that night. Klaus got up and sat next to him comforting the boy, Ambrose couldn't help but sob into his shirt, "I'm Sorry, Klaus."

"Awe, don't be none of this is our fault. We're all scared."

Ambrose chuckled quietly, "Is that why you do the drugs because you're scared?"

"Something like that."

Moments like these were a rarity but sometimes we need comfort from those who we care for and love. That was what this was Klaus wasn't one to comfort others much but he cares deeply about everyone despite it all. They were family.

"I have to go, um."

"Your family reunion?"

"Yeah, here I have the 20-"

"No, forget it, I don't need it, this is enough. Do you want someone to join you on this trip?"

"I thought you disliked Graveyards?"

"I'll be ok I got you, buddy!" Klaus grinned looking around Ambrose couldn't believe how Klaus even convinced him to not pay the bill but they weren't going to get caught after all.

As Klaus and Ambrose stood in front of The Caesar gravestones all the boys could think is; "I still can't believe daddy'o was kind enough to give your family a funeral."
