The one with the accident
TW // mention of blood and death
Summary // your boyfriend of 3 years breaks up with you on the evening of your anniversary, you’re devastated, Five is angry.
You finish up your makeup, dusting powder lightly across your cheeks, singing along to your favourite song. Tonight’s your 3 year anniversary to your boyfriend Mark, he’s taking you to your favourite restaurant. Just the thought alone excites you. Standing from your desk you walk to the closet, almost throwing the doors open as a small squeal leaves your lips. Scanning through the clothes, you find your little black dress, a staple in any woman’s wardrobe. It’s a little short for how nice the restaurant is but it’s your best dress.
Throwing the dress on you quickly start looking for shoes, you know, the ones that match? Before you could find them you noticed your phone going off across the room. It’s probably Mark, you think to yourself, heading the vanity. Looking down at the screen you see your favourite picture of him, smiling up at you, you smile back for a second before picking up the phone. “Hey babe” you chirp eager to hear his voice. “Hey hun” he sounds somber, you frown at the phone “we need to talk” he continues, you furrow your brows, turning and heading to your bedroom window “about tonight?” You ask, starting to lightly bite your nails, Mike stayed silent for a moment before answering “I’m-“ he stutters, trying to catch his breath. “I’m breaking up with you” those 4 little words managed to shatter your entire world in seconds. You stand there, stunned, using all your strength to stay stood, unable to hear his apologies. You manage to mutter a “what?” Just before he hangs up on you, the words still echoing in your mind. How could he do this on your anniversary?
A moment of silence passed as you stay still, staring out of the window, phone still up to your ear. Left with your own thoughts you begin to breakdown, dropping your phone and falling to your knees, tears begin to fall. You don’t care. You sit there and quietly sob, unable to process what just happened.
Knock knock. The sound echoes through your room, the sadness you felt being replaced by anger “FUCK OFF” you scream, hoping whoever it is will take the hint, they did not. Knock knock. There it is again. You quickly stand, ready to rip someone’s head off. Using your telekinetic powers you slam the bedroom door open with ease, revealing a startled Five, the anger in your body quickly disappearing at the sight of your brother.
“What do you want Five?” You ask, tiredness prevalent in your voice. He scans your face, watching as you wipe the tears from your cheeks, smearing your makeup as you do. “I just wanted to say happy anniversary to you and Mark” he forced a smile, you scoffed, fucking Mark. Five steps closer to you, putting his hands in his pockets and letting out a small sigh. “What did that asshole do?” He asked, already knowing the answer, you looked at him for a moment, your eyes meeting. Taking a deep breath you try to speak, your words are shaky as the tears begin to fall again, “he- he just broke up with me” you sob, throwing yourself down on the foot of your bed. Five looks at you with a mixture of sadness and anger, he hates seeing you cry. Moving closer to the bed, Five pulls you in for a hug, you wrap your arms around him as you cry into his suit jacket, he hugs you tight, gently rubbing your back.
Five stands there, letting you cry it out, trying to ignore your tears seeping into his shirt. He wouldn’t do this for anyone else, he can’t help but fall soft with you. Once the crying subsides you slowly move away from one another, letting out a heavy sigh as you push your now damp hair from your face, done with this night. “Are you alright?” Five asks, startling you slightly, “oh, yeah. I’m fine” you reply looking around the room. He nods knowing you’re lying but nows not the time to argue.
“Hey Y/N” Luther calls you from down the hall, blissfully unaware of what just happened “yeah?” You call back, not wanting to step out your room in this state. He can’t hear you, you try again but to no avail. You stand to your feet with a huff, feeling defeated by the nights events, you drag yourself down the hall as Five follows.
Walking to the top of the stairs that’s when you see him, stood there in the foyer, chatting to Luther with a smug look on his face. “What the fuck do you want Mark?” You ask, anger prevalent in your voice, “I came to tell you that I’m sorry Y/N, I didn’t mean-“ before he could finish the sentence Five appeared behind him, axe in hand. He drove it straight into the back of Marks head. You watched in horror as your brother forcefully pulls the axe out of your ex boyfriends head, watching with glee as the body falls to the floor, bloody beginning to pour out of the open wound. You knew Five didn’t have the best temperament, especially when it came to you but you didn’t he’d go this far.
“What the fuck Five?” You mumble, making your way downstairs and towards the body, watching as the blood pouring out of Mike’s head begins to pool. “What did you do?” You ask more clearly this time, Five stays silent, breathing deeply as he looks down at his prey. Kneeling down in front of your now dead ex, you gently place a hand on his chest. “Five!” Luther finally speaks up, clearly still in shock. “It was an accident” Five mumbles, straightening his blood soaked jacket and lowering the axe. You and Luther watch your brother in disbelief, “this- Five, this is not an accident” Luther stumbles over his words, pointing at the body, you slowly stand to your feet. Stepping over Mike as you go to stand by Five, “it was am accident Luther” you mumble, looking up at him, “Y/N…” he says, unable to understand why you’d go along with something like this, “it was an accident Luther” you snap “help us move him, please” the anger in your voice now gone, you almost plead with your brother. Luther looks back at you, angry at the situation you two got him involved with but hey, that’s what families for, right?
