Marco- a titan shifter

Chapter eight

I watch as she draws, damn can she draw well for a 7 year old, she draws herself, Hugo me... and, someone else? " who's that" I ask pointing to the other person in the drawing "him" she says pointing to my open sketchbook with the drawing jean and me from so long ago. I blush heavily "aahhhhh" I yell while I try to grab the book she giggles, "youu looovvveeeee him, don't you freckles" a evil little girl smile crossing her face "shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" I cover my bright red face and laugh. After our little laughing fit is over we draw together, I finish my dorky little love sketch and she draws a couple pictures. "Here" she says placing 3 pictures in my hand "what's that's persons name?" She asks point towards jean once again, "jean, is jean" a silly smile crossing my face when I hear his name once again, "thanks!" She yips before furiously scribbling on a picture in her hand, "when you go see jean again give him this from me" she hands me a drawing of me and jean hugging and her Hugo and her parents in the background waving, written in the corner is 'dear jean thank you for letting me and Hugo borrow marco' and a little heart at the end. The picture triggers something in me and having the worst timing ever I decide to tell frida how I fear the worst for her parents.
"Frida, I... I'm not sure your parents will return, and... I can't stay here forever. I'm going to go back into the wall and I need you to come with me. We can wait a little longer but not much, almost everyone has returned, and the ones who haven't I fear never will." I try to explain. Without a word she grabs Hugo pulls him into her lap and buries her face into his fluffy back. After a second or two she nods her head. "How long can we stay and wait" she whispers with the biggest puppy dog eyes, I silently nod "one week" I stare at frida and watch as her face changes showing she is realising something. 'Oh no does she realise I think her parents are dead, or abandoned her, oh god I can't explain that to here' " your not going to make me leave Hugo right?" She asks with a worried expression 'oh thank god' "no of course not, it may be hard but we will bring Hugo along don't worry" I say patting the forever bored looking cat.
"Okay we need to start getting ready to leave, you can put all your stuff in that trunk..." I say pointing the metal trunk that brought frida and my paths together "... But take your time, we will wait another week like I promised"

((Writers note
I actually have no idea what is happening next, there wasn't even supposed to be a child but I needed a reason for marco not to come home right away and yeah that happened. I guess I'm just rolling with it now ))
