Five x Reader ~ The Umbrella Academy (Season 2)

Chapter 3

My father is gone and all I have is myself and 50 dollars... shit.

Thoughts filled my mind. This is stupid, what was I thinking? I'm going to die. That nerve in my back that I had before came back and I felt like crumbling to the ground.

It was pretty hot which made sense because it's Dallas Texas. I set down my coat on the disgusting street ground and sat on it. I sat in an ally but I was still able to see the bar, across the street. The brick wall behind me had disgusting spider webs all over it so I made sure I didn't lean up against one.

I looked down at my watch, I had less than two minutes. How am I going to approach him and not make it weird? I felt so stupid. I could feel my breathing start to pick up. My lungs were closing as if I was getting choked. 

It was really dark out and there were drunk people walking around which made sense because of the bar. I tried to look through the bar window to see Five but there was no one. They also mentioned how Luther would be in there also so I tried to find a large figure, they didn't say what was going on in there but I didn't want to know. All I could see was a woman dancing and I can hear men cheering and cat calling her.

Why the hell did they let a 13 year old in there? I questioned again. I knew he was 58 but with him looking like a 13 year old I thought it was absurd. Why would they be in there while the apocalypse is coming? This all just seemed insane to me, everything was just confusing.

Two men came out of the door. They both just looked like very white adults. One of them was tall and large and the other was short and scrawny. What a dynamic duo. I thought to myself and smirked at my own joke. The short one looked over at me and whispered something into his friends ear, I didn't want to know what he said. I thought of many things of what they said about me and it made me shiver, just so disgusting.

The taller and larger man looked over at me and I accidently made eye-contact with him and they started to walk, remaining eye-contact with me.

I quickly looked away and looked at the bar door, hoping they wouldn't come near me. They started to cross the street and I could hear them talking to each other. Once they crossed the street they came right to the ally I was in. I kept on looking at the bar and tried to ignore that they were right there. But then the larger one was right in front of me, blocking my view of the bar so I just looked down at my shoes. I brought my knees to my chest and wrapped my arms around them. But since I didn't look at them, the smaller man bent down so his face was right near mine.

"What's a pretty little girl like you doing here?" he asked.

I could smell the alcohol in his breath. They were obviously both drunk.

I didn't say anything, hoping he would get out of my face. I found it a little triggering to me how he just said "pretty little girl" to me. I've only been in the world for 1 minute and someone was already been creepy.

"Looks like she don't talk," the same man spoke again. He had a clear southern accent, "are you homeless or something?"

"No."

I finally looked at him.

"Oh my lord, she talks!" He over exaggerated.

I clenched my jaw and glared at him. Are people this much of an idiot?

"Oh goodness the little girl is mad, I'm so scared." The larger one said. They both chuckled.

They were acting like complete children. I knew that they were really wasted but at least have some pride in yourself.

The smaller one sighed a little. "Look how beautiful she is."

I flared my nostrils and continued to glare at the fully grown man.
