Last Ones Standing - Yuliy x Sirius!Reader {Sirius the Jaeger}

Chapter 5

~ Long Timeskip ~

3rd-person POV
The police and investigators arrived at Dr. Hamada's home. By that time, the siriuses' weapons were retrieved, so the police would not find neither (y/n)'s weapon, nor Yuliy's weapon.

"Well, the police are here now. It's their job. Let them do what they need to do." Willard started. "Fallon will stay there, and tell us if anything happens." He finished.

"We were caught up with someone, sorry for being late." Dorothea said. "You know, we almost died, right?" Phillip said. "I said I was sorry." Dorothea repeated.

Dorothea was confused when she didn't hear a sarcastic comeback from the blank expressioned Sirius in the back. "What's wrong (y/n)? You haven't said anything since we left." Dorothea said as (y/n) looked further at the ground.

Yuliy sat on the right side of the back seat, Phillip sat at the other, and (y/n) was in the middle. Both siriuses were a lot quieter than they usually were, especially for (y/n), and Willard, as well as Yuliy and Phillip took notice.

   "It's nothing..." (y/n) quietly responded as flashbacks of Hanada and Saki flooded her mind, her hand reaching towards the shoulder Hanada treated, and her eyes dulling even more than possible.

Everyone in the car noticed it, especially the two boys beside her.

   Yuliy shared the look of pain in her eyes, as he placed his hand on her own. She finches for a second, but then intertwined her fingers with his. He gave her hand a comforting squeeze, trying to reassure her that he was there for her.

   Then, as she resisted the temptation to cry, she squeezed his hand back, and was glad Yuliy was here to comfort her.

   The group finally made it back to the Naoe residence. Yuliy was in the room cleaning his weapons as Phillip walked into the room. They made eye contact as Phillip frowned. He sighed as he walked towards the window.

   "For a huge place such as the Capital, it's such a quiet place." Phillip said as Yuliy nodded. "Yeah, it really is." Yuliy agreed as he continued to work on his weapon.

   "About Saki though..." Phillip started as Yuliy became tense. "I heard a few of her relatives decided to take her in." Phillip explained, but quickly waved it off. "It's Saki though. I'm sure she'll be fine." He said as Yuliy sighed.

   "I wouldn't say so." Yuliy said as Phillip asked questioningly. "The only person that she truly loved, her father, was killed. And speaking of that, I don't think (y/n) is taking it well either." Yuliy went on as Phillip continued to listen, hearing (y/n)'s name.

   "She feels conflicted. She feels at fault. We both saw it in her eyes, I know it..." Yuliy said, remembering the melancholy look (y/n) had on her face. Phillip sighed again, and turned to look at Yuliy as he began to speak.

   "It can't be helped. I feel like she did the right thing... If I were in that situation, I would've done the same thing." Phillip said as he looked back out at the window. "But about (y/n)... What do you think about her Yuliy?" Phillip asked.

   Yuliy was a bit taken aback when he heard the question come out of Phillips mouth. He remembered his time at the Hanada residence with (y/n), and slightly stuttered. "W-well. I like her. She's the only person that understands me the most. She's a good friend." Yuliy said as Phillip frowned.
