The umbrella academy: In which Five gets all the love he deserves

Untitled Part 34

Maybe close to one year, Klaus realized how stupid he and everyone else were when they had left Five alone that day. For god sake. The kid is 13. Well, 14 now. What a kid his age and without his powers to do in a new, completely strange world, to do alone. Klaus fears the answer. He had gone with Luther to help search for Sloane. But after a few months, the man had become unbearable and so he had left. He had found a job as a waiter in a small dinner and rented an apartment. And then now he had just remembered about Five. He should search for him. But the thing is that he doesn't even know where to start.

That was until one day when he spotted the boy by mistake. Klaus was returning home from his work when he noticed a kid in a swing. Normally he wouldn't find anything weird about it. If it wasn't close to midnight. He walked into the park ready to ask the kid where are his parents. "Hey kid", he called and he froze when he moved closer and he noticed that the kid was his brother Five. "Five?"

Upon recognizing that the person was Klaus, Five stood up and ran away. It would have been easier if he still had his powers. Unfortunately, Klaus ran after him, and as he was faster than him he caught him easily.

"Let me go, you asshole", Five spat when Klaus grabbed him by his arm.

"Nu-uh Little bro"

"Don't call me that"

"Stop trying to get free. If someone passes by they would think that I want to kidnap you", Klaus said when Five continued to struggle.

"Then let me go"

"Would you promise to not run away if I let you go?' he asked and he was met with silence. "That's what I thought. What are you doing here?"

"I didn't think that you care. After all, you and everyone else left me to fend for myself."

"Five..."Five used the opportunity that Klaus's grip on him loosened when he said that and he kicked him in the shin. Klaus cursed and Five profited by the distraction and he ran away again. Klaus ran away after Five but this time he didn't manage to catch him and find him anymore. Disappointed he turned around and walked home.

Klaus was worried. Five wasn't looking that good. He was more skinny than usual and pale. At least he wasn't wearing that black suit anymore. He had a green hoodie and some sweatpants on him. Klaus wondered what Five had done and where he had lived this past year. When he arrived home, Klaus tried to contact the others and let them know about Five. Maybe they would help him to help Five. Unfortunately, none of his siblings answered his calls. Apparently, they were so busy living their lives that they cut all the connections with him. Did they cut the connection with him only? Or with the others too?

================================================================================

These past few days Klaus couldn't focus on work properly. He was always thinking at Five. Where he was? What he was doing? Was he safe? Fortunately for him his coo-werkes and boss are kind people. So they aren't bothered by his distraction. They even offered to talk with him about it but the only thing he told them was that he was worried about his brother. 

Klaus didn't expect that the next time he would see Five, it would be like this. The last customer had left and he and his co-workers were cleaning the dinner, preparing to close it for the day when the door opened. Klaus was about to tell the person that it was closed but he froze when he noticed who that person was. It was Five and he was bloody and shaking.

"Five", Klaus shouted and he rushed towards him. The boy flinched and his legs gave up and Klaus caught him before he could hit the floor. "Jesus. What happened with you?"He asked his brother and he brushed the fair from his body face. Five eyes were half opened and he doesn't know if he recognize him. When he heard footsteps from behind he turned to see his coo-workes. Jorge is a guy his age and very beautiful. He definitely has a crush on him. He was a few inches taller than him, with black short hair and dark blue eyes. The other was Brianna. She was a couple of years older than him, she was a redhead with beautiful chocolate skin and beautiful chocolate eyes that matches her skin. She was like an older sister figure to him.
