I Need You (Five Hargreeves x Reader) Number Five

Chapter 161

"I don't want them to hate me, Five. I can't see that look in their eyes. I can't see them looking at me like they can't trust me anymore", she explained. 

"Hey... You need to keep one thing in mind... For us, yes... Surely it has been over ten months... But for them it hasn't been more than just a few hours... So please don't worry about it... Let's go inside already. They love you more than anyone and anything in this whole world. And for them... Nothing's changed", he said. 

"Really?", she asked as he could hear the glimpse of hope in her voice. "Yeah. Really", he said as he rubbed her back. 

"If you are ready... Can I ring the doorbell now?", Five asked as she nodded. "You can do it", she mumbled as her grip on his hand tightened. 

He rang the doorbell as not even a minute later the door opened and Mrs. Brook was standing in front of them making Y/n sigh in relief. "Oh Mrs Brook", Y/n hugged her tightly not having seen her from so long. 

"Oh... Oh, glad to see you missed me so much, dear", she chuckled rubbing Y/n's back with a familiar smile on her face. 

"No... I am sorry. I just... It's been an extremely tough and very long day, Mrs Brook", Y/n said as Five nodded in agreement. 

"No worries, honey... I was just starting to get worried about you two... Hello Five", Mrs Brook looked at Five with a nod. 

"Hey there, Mrs. Brook... It's really good to see you", Five said. 

"Better to see you two. Come on in already. The kids have been waiting for you", she said as Y/n quickly walked in, Five following, and Mrs Brook closed the door after letting them in. 

Y/n suddenly felt familiar arms wrapping around her as she knelt down and hugged Alex tightly. "Hey honey!", Y/n smiled as Five held onto Eva and kissed her forehead. 

"I thought you left me, mommy!", he exclaimed as Y/n pulled away. "No, no. Not at all. Why would I leave you, honey?", Y/n asked as she pecked his cheeks again. 

"Mommy... Why are you crying?", he asked wiping her tears. "I just felt like I haven't seen you in ages", Y/n said pecking his cheeks again. 

"Mommy! My cheeks hurts", he whined. "Let her be, buddy", Five said as he looked at Five. "Daddy!", he hugged him as Five handed Eva to Y/n and hugged her tight keeping her close. 

"Mama!", she said. "Yes Eva... I am so sorry, baby... I was gone for too long, wasn't I?", Y/n pecked her cheeks as she buried her face in her neck. 

"Why weren't you coming back?", Alex asked. "Well buddy... We um... We got lost on the way", Five said. "But how?", he asked. 

"We... We took the wrong train. Don't worry too much. It doesn't matter anymore. Don't worry", Y/n said caressing his hair. 

"Okay... Now you won't leave me and Eva again, right?", Alex asked. "Never again, love. Never. I promise", Y/n said ruffling his hair.
