: Delores

"Any donut will do thanks." You spoke quietly. Agnes placed a sprinkled donut on a plate and put it in front of you. You reached for your wallet in your pocket.

"Don't worry about it (y/n)." She offered.

"Thank you Agnes." You murmured. She smiled and walked into the back room.

The store was empty and dead quiet. You stared down at your donut.

"Ok, I'm going to eat this donut and forget everything. Just me, and the donut." You said to yourself. Grabbing the donut you took a bite out of it, scrunching your face. "I forgot I don't like sprinkles." You mumbled as you dropped the donut back onto the plate. You sighed and your thoughts eventually drifted back to Five.

Her name was Delores.

It echoed.

We were together for over 30 years.

You groaned and placed your head in your hands. You really needed to get over this.

Ignoring the bell that rang you sighed, your hair smothering the donut. Hearing someone sit next to you, you look up to see Five.

"Thought I might find you here." He began.

"Shouldn't you be off snogging your partner somewhere?" You noted.

"(y/n) its not like that," He protested. "Come with me please, I want to show you something."

You looked at him skeptically, at his pleading ocean eyes.

"Fine."

He grinned and took your hand. Next minute you were out in the rain and standing in a empty parking lot outside The Gimbel Brothers. Next you were inside the shop, still holding Fives soft, warm hand. Five picked up a flashlight and you both walked up to a display of mannequins.

"Delores, it's good to see you." He spoke to the mannequins, you blinked.

"You've got to be fucking kiddi-"

"NO!" Five yelled, pulling you away from the flying bullets and into a isle.

He peeked out from behind the clothes. "Oh shit its them!"

"Them? Who's them?" You yelled. "Five what the hell is going on!"

Five ignored you and ran back out, He went back for the mannequin.

"You went back for the mannequin?!" You yelled over the gun fire.

"It Delores, and stay here I'll be back for you both!" He said, running down the isle.

"Like fuck I'm staying here." You said to yourself, turning to run down the other way you paused looking back at the manne- I mean Delores. "I can't believe I'm doing this," You said while grabbing a large carry bag from behind you and stuffing her in. "Sorry but comfort doesn't really matter right now."

Swinging the bag on your shoulder you ran down the opposite way, you saw a glimpse of one of the shooters and hid yourself behind a shelf. Closing your eyes you fasten your mind to theirs, and created an illusion. Pulling out you heard gunfire and looked to see the person shooting around their feet. Giggling to yourself you kept running while the man (you assumed) shot at the 'snakes'. You took a breather, but next minute you heard Five. "Shit, Come on!" He groaned, probably loosing strength. Looking up you see him climb a shelf being shot at.

"Got him." The other shooter says. Heart beating fast you quickly made the illusion of police sirens and lights in both their minds, distracting them.

"Bastard jumped again." You heard the man say.

"Come on lets go." The other said.

"What about the other one?" He asked.

"We'll be back."

Soon they were gone.

"Five!" You screamed, looking for him. You found him behind a desk with his head against it, breathing heavily. "Five." You said with relief, touching his burning cheek.

"(y/n), are you okay?" He asked, holding the hand placed on his cheek.

"I'm ok, so is Delores." You say, giving him the bag then sitting next to him.

"Thank you." He replied. You lay your head on his shoulder and he reached for you hand, entwining it with his.
