"So I'll wait for you, love
And I'll burn
Will I ever see your sweet return?
Oh, will I ever learn?
Lover, you should've come over-
'Cause it's not too late."
A Five x Eight Hargreeves story.
Also available on AO3.
She was the mirror. The one who could become everyone except herself.
He was the boy who left her behind, again and again.
Now they're both sixteen again, trapped in a body too young for everything they've survived. The world is ending (again), and Eight isn't sure if she's still someone worth saving. Or if he ever meant to come back for her at all.
A slowburn, angst-heavy reimagining of The Umbrella Academy seasons 1-4, with rewritten canon, dark timelines, forgotten truths, and a love that's always been just one apocalypse too late.
