"From my rotting body, flowers shall grow and I am in them, and that is eternity."
-Edvard Munch

(Five Hargreeves x OC) 


Number Eight. The Angel.
Seraphina Hargreeves had always been rather quiet. She never quite seemed to be 'all there.' Always staring off, seemingly lost in her thoughts; plagued by her own psyche. 
She only ever seemed mostly there at Five's side, his presence appearing to pull her back and ground her to reality.

When he left, disappearing without a trace, the girl seemed to curl up in on herself, isolating herself from her family and the outside world, a husk of who she once was. 
Resigned to the house she had been raised in, the dauntingly high ceilings and empty halls haunted the timeless fractal endlessly as days bled into years

Then, on the morning of March 21, 2019, Sir Reginald Hargreeves was found dead.


"I have too many ghosts here... but.. I don't seem to have enough ghosts anywhere else.
What would I be without the ghosts? 
The opposite of a haunting is something very lonely."


(disclaimer this might kinda really suck so just bear with me, updates will probably not have any set schedule)

{Five Hargreeves x Reader} (*Author from the future here!*I wrote these like literally four years ago and the cringe level is high so be warned. My writing has improved significantly since then but unfortunately I'm no longer active on Wattpad and have moved to Ao3. I would go back and rewrite all of these but I no longer have an interest in Five Hargreeves much less Umbrella Academy. So my apologies. Anyways I'd encourage you to go do something better with your time, but I honestly don't care. Have fun, and wear protection! Seriously!) You obviously are looking through the eyes of yourself, Y/n (and sometimes Five). This book is just kind of like one shots/Imagines. And there will be warnings and the word count at the beginning of each chapter. Also, this story is typically for female readers. One more thing. Thank you for putting your time into reading my story, I know my writing isn't the best but I try my very hardest to make each chapter perfect. Let me know if I let anything out and I guess enjoy. ⚠️(I do not own any of the characters, plot, setting, etc. Most of the storylines belong to me but I will say otherwise if they don't.)⚠️

Sequel to OUT OF SIGHT || NUMBER 5 x OC || BK. 1! [COMPLETED SEASON 2] "I'm just glad that at least we don't have to deal with the world ending for another 60 years. We can actually spend time together like a couple," she smiled at him happily. Five clear his throat and pressed his lips together in a fine line, turning his face away from her, unsure how to break the news to her. "About that..." Elaina's smile dropped instantly, sensing his hesitation. "What?" "See, when we came here, we sort of brought the end of the world with us..." he explained carefully. The girl blinked a few times. "Excuse me, WHAT?" ~ . ~ . ~.~ . ~ . ~.~ . ~ . ~.~ . ~ . ~.~ . ~ . ~.~ . ~ . ~.~ . ~ . ~.~ . ~ . ~.~ . ~ . ~.~ . ~ . ~.~ . ~ . ~.~ . ~ . ~.~ . ~ . ~.~ After the Moonrock came crashing down in 2019, nearly killing the Hargreeves as the rest of the world went up in flames, Five managed to take his family with him through time - the only thing is that they're scattered throughout the early 1960s and he has to find them in 10 days. Elaina Hargreeves, also known as Number Eight, has landed in the stormy night of Christmas Eve 1962. She has no clue where her family is as she desperately searches for them: enduring racism, a new family, and a second apocalypse. Why did the love of her life keep ending the world?
