Fighting Fate ~ Five H. x Reader ⚠️ DISCONTINUED ⚠️

S1 E5

After we got done explaining, we headed back to the academy.

"um so, what happened?" I turned and faced Five as we entered the mansion

"what?" he acted dumb looking away

"You said you lost someone, me, but you lost all of us. Then your thinking about "eight, I'm so sorry, please stay"." I looked at him with worry and sorrow, "five, what happened?"

His face softened as tears came in his eyes, "you-" he looked down "you were there" he whispered

"In the apocalypse?" 

"yea, you got there before me" He looked back into my eyes, I held his hand once again, "you saw everybody dead, you saw everything"

"oh"

"and then you-" He started sobbing, "what five?"

he said under his breath, "you killed yourself, and I found you"

I pulled him into a hug, running my hand through his hair, "I'm so sorry five" was all I could say as the boy cried on my shoulder

"your necklace, I toke it. that's why I had it. It was the only thing left of you" he said into my hair

I closed my eyes, tears running down my face

"I found you" he kept sobbing, "I found you, and you were still there"

I pulled his face in my hands, "I was still alive?" he nodded in response

"you didn't want to live that way" 

My thumb caressed his cheek, I'd never seen this side of him before. To make it worse, I didn't know how to comfort him.

He pulled a piece of my hair behind my ear before tracing my jawline. All we could do was stare at each other.

When we walked up the stairs we saw Klaus acting strange, which wasn't entirely new.

Five knocked on his door, "you okay?"

"hey" he responded, "yeah, just a long night"

"more than one from the looks of it" I added

"yea" he chuckles, "don't remember the dog tags" Five pointed out

He grunts putting his shirt on, "yea, they belonged to a friend"

"How 'bout that new tattoo?"

He looks at it before saying, "You know, I don't totally remember even getting it. Like I said, it was a long night."

Five scoffed looking at the ground then back at him, "you did it didn't you?"

I stare at him confused, "what are you talking about?" Klaus asked sitting down

"You know, I can recognize the symptoms, Klaus.

"Symptoms of what?"

"The jet lag. Full body itch."

Klaus sighs, "Headache that feels like someone shoved a box of cotton up into your nose and through your brain. You gonna tell me about it?"

"Your pals, when they broke into the house and they couldn't find you, they took me hostage instead."

"And in return, you stole their briefcase." Five smiles

"Yeah. I thought there was money in it, or I could pawn it, you know, whatever. And then I opened it."
And the next thing you knew, you were... where?" He corrects himself, "Or should I say when?"
"What difference does it make?" Klaus said annoyed

"What diff... Uh... Okay, how long were you gone?"
"Almost a year."
"A year?" We both say
"Do you know what this means?" Five asks stepping closer
He chuckles, "Yeah, I'm ten months older now."
"No, this isn't any sort of joke, Klaus. Hazel and Cha-Cha will do whatever they can to get the briefcase."
"Where is it now?" I ask
