Number Eight (five x reader)

Chapter 8

Date : October 1st 2019

I walked over and sat next to Five.

"Well"
I said.
Five turned to face me.

"We're 14 years old today"

I pulled a bar of chocolate out of my pocket and showed it to Five.

"I found these in the Freezer at an old 7-11 down the street. It's untouched"

I open the rapper, break off a piece and hand it to Five.
He looks at me and takes the piece of chocolate in my hand.
I break a piece off for myself and we both start eating.

"Well"
Five said.

"Happy birthday to us"

He took out his water bottle and took a swig.
He gave it to me and held it out like a toast.

"Happy birthday to us"
I said, repeating Five's words.
I drank some water and handed the bottle back to Five.
He put the cap on and placed it with the rest of our stuff.

"We are 14 now, right"
I asked.

"...why would we not be?"

"Because we're in 2019, so we might not be turning 14.
And might actually be turning..."
I did the math in my head.

"30"

Five looked at me, smiled and looked down.
He laughed a little.

"Well, that's a good point.
But I'm pretty sure the year the we live in doesn't change the amount of years we have been on this planet."

He looked back up at be and smiled.
I smiled back.

"I guess that makes sense"
The smile faded from my face and I looked at the chocolate in my hand.

"What's wrong, y/n?"
Five asked.

I looked back up at him.

"This is our first birthday in the apocalypse, with our family"

Five thought for a moment, then looked back at me.

"I guess you're right"

I handed him another piece of chocolate.

"Today is also the six month anniversary for us getting stuck in the apocalypse"
Five said as he ate the chocolate I gave him.

"Wow..."
I said.

"Already half a year we've been stuck in the shit hole"
I looked around and sighed.

"Yeah..."
Five looked around with me.

I stood up.
"Well, I'm gonna go find supplies"

I shifted into a hawk and flew into the sky.
I perched myself on a power pole and scanned the area from a birds eye view.
As soon as I was about to fly back to Five, something caught my eye.

I dove down and shifted back as I landed.
I pushed the rubble away to reveal a red glass bottle.
There was some sort of liquid inside it.

I took it back to Five who was hiding the rest of the chocolate with our stash.
He turned around and I gave him the bottle.
He took it and examined it carefully.

"Looks like some sort of alcohol"

He opened to and took a sip.
Suddenly, his face looked like he just bit a lemon and he spat it on time the ground.

"Yep, definitely alcohol"

He threw the bottle at one of the half standing wall and it shattered, alcohol sprayed everywhere and glass shards when flying.

"Expired alcohol"
He said.

I raised my eyebrows as Five started walking away.

"Where are you going?"

"To find something better to drink than boose that's half a year old"

I sighed and followed him.

Later that day

Five and I turned towards what looked like and old second hand store.

"Why are we here, Five, it's not like we're gonna find anything to eat or drink from a store that only sells clothes, toys and cooking supplies "

Five stop and turned to me.

"Because, baked bean. You never know what you could find a second hand store"

I rolled my eyes and shifted to a cat and climbed up a wall and sat on top of it.
I watched Five as he looked around.

Suddenly, Five looked up and started scanning the area.

"What is it?!"
I yelled from my perch.

He looked up at me.
"Did you hear that?!"

I was confused.
"Hear what?"

"Someone yelled, it was a girl"

Five started to run off, I leaped off the walk and landed on his shoulder, shifting into a mouse in midair.
