Who knows what and how.

Y/n

The past few months have been straining. Tiresome and quite painful. I've never spent my life inside this long, at this point I think I'm pale.

I turn to the window, the sky is grey, very cloudy, and it's pouring rain. Exactly what my emotions have been since the news. Klaus and Finn have been major help, Xavier is looking to get into a dormitory and with Bella growing up, everyday seems like it won't end.

I'm sat in the kitchen, whilst I stare out the window, waiting for Finn's car to pull up in the driveway so I don't have to be alone. All of a sudden I hear a clink behind me, it immediately grabs my attention as I turn, getting ready to throw something.

But no, instead I'm faced with my son, who was just trying to come downstairs and get a snack. "Jesus.. Klaus did you have to sneak up like that?" He looked at me and shrugged.

"I didn't really sneak up, you were just zoning out." I hummed and leaned towards the counter, laying my head down. I had a pounding headache I needed to get rid off. I heard rustling beside me, so I opened my eyes and looked, Klaus was sitting there, opening his bag of chips.

He sighed as he ate a chip and leaned forward as well. I really took a look at him, and I say it a lot but he really does look like Finn. Then I got this rush of guilt, running through my veins. "I'm sorry." I uttered. He turned and looked at me, furrowing his eyebrows.

"For what?" He asked, popping another chip in his mouth, creating a crunch with his teeth as he ate them. I chuckled dryly. "Your life was probably better when I wasn't around huh?" "What? No,  mom, don't say that, I'm glad you're here okay?" I closed my eyes for a second and took in his words.

"Finn raised you right." He grinned and ate another chip. "I guess he did." "He did." Klaus looked down at the counter and his grin turned into a frown. "Do we always have to live like this though.. in hiding?" I sighed and shook my head. "I don't know. We're not really hiding, we're just, starting a new." He scoffed and looked back at me.

"How, she's probably still after us, and things around here aren't so easy with Malu, it feels.."

"Like hell all over again?" He widened his eyes slightly but nodded in agreement. The sound of a car pulling up caught both of our attentions, I turned and looked out the window, Finn was parking in the garage. "Klaus go check on your sisters while I talk to your father." He nodded and got up, dusting his shirt  before stroking up the stairs.

I got up as well, preparing myself to talk to him. I know how on edge he's been lately, even though he tries to hide it. He wants to keep a brave face for the family but deep down I know how tired he is. How he wished things weren't the way they are.

I'm getting that instinct to just run off, and run away from everything and just be alone, be miserable by myself, because I know being around people isn't really my strong suit. I'd much rather just drown in my sorrows than cause pain to another human being.

Finn opened the front door, water dripping from his hair and with clearly damp clothes from the rain. He smiled at me and opened his arms, I didn't care about the water obviously so I went and gave him a hug. Really taking in his sent. It was the only way I felt safe nowadays, just being in his arms makes me forget everything for a split second.

I pulled away and looked at him in the eyes, "Where were you all day? I was worried sick." He sighed and rubbed the back of his neck. "I just went to run a few errands, I bought us groceries and payed the bills." For some reason I really didn't believe him, but I dropped it. I didn't want to make him more upset than he already is.

"Alright." I spoke. He smiled and kissed my forehead before walking past me and into the kitchen, to which I followed him. He reached up the fridge and grabbed a bottle of Whiskey. Of course. He's drinking his problems away. "Finn put the whiskey away you already had 3 glasses before you left the house—"

"Leave me be y/n, I can have one more glass." He popped the cap off and poured some into a glass, the chugged it all in one go. "Finn, you're drunk, give me that." I tried to grab the bottle from him but he just glared at him, and the look in his eyes said: "if you don't back up right now I swear I'm going to walk out of this damn house."

I cleared my throat and backed up, he looked back at the bottle and poured himself another glass. "Finn—" "what!" He responded with agitation.

"Would you calm down? I'm just trying to help you!"  He widened his eyes and placed the bottle down with a clink. "Help me? You wanna help me? You've 'helped' me enough y/n, trust me, I'm fine." That stung.

"Im sorry."

"Don't even.." he drank his whiskey again and looked out of the window again, at the rain. I sighed, knowing there was no point in talking or reasoning with him. "Im just gonna go see Malu." He hummed while I walked away.

When I walked up the stairs, I noticed something. Silence. Klaus wasn't yelling at his video games and I didn't hear Bella's little coos. I rushed up and to my horror I saw klaus standing there, at the doorway of the girls's room. "Klaus? Honey are you okay?"

I approached him, and the more I did, the more my heat started thumping out of my chest. He was staring at the room in horror, and in the matter of seconds.. so was I. My eyes widened fast and my heart stopped.

"Klaus where are your sisters?"
