Chapter 15: New World
Klaus holds the tags in his hand, they feel heavier as they have a right to be but he likes them. The cool material feels nice on his skin. "Dave. Someone who loves me." He pulls the chain over his head and let the tags fall against his chest and smiles. After looking at them for a minute and reading the name on them again he hides the tags under his shirt. With the letter still in his hands he walks downstairs. He hadn't read the manual; he will do so in the morning. There is no way he will continue with the alcohol and drugs when he has a better way. After a quick stop at his room where he finds all weed he had stored he goes to the bathroom and flushes everything he has down.
He doesn't want to be alone in his room, like most nights he won´t be able to sleep anyway (there is a reason for the drugs in his room). So Klaus makes his way to the door that belongs to a room he knows now will never again be locked for him.
Without knocking Klaus enters and closes the door silently. "Five?" Klaus ask into the darkness. He doesn't like the dark room of his siblings but when he has to choose between fairy lights and a warm body, the living thing will win every time.
"You can turn on the light on my desk." Five says. Klaus does so and climbs into the bed beside his brother.
"You really mean that? You know me being here, is that really ok?" He has to make sure. He doesn't want this place out of pity or guilt or some other reason that doesn't include his brother loving him.
"Yes Klaus. That is not only for you, after what I have seen I really like someone with me. Just to make sure you alright and save and breathing and alive." Klaus gets closer to Five and he feels an arm over his side pulling him even closer. This is perfect, their home isn't perfect or their family but they will try to fix everything they can and this right here, sharing a bed with his brother is the best way to start a new life.
