Reuniting Tornedalians

"Oh....You'll be coming back right?" She asked, walking over to her.

"Yes. I don't think I'll be gone long at all. Just enough to decide a few things, don't worry."

She nodded.

She opened her arms to hug her.

Angel hugged her back. "Be careful."

"I will don't worry."

She nodded walking back to her parents.

She looked at Christian. "Call me if you need anything, okay?"

He nodded. "Same to you."

She gave him a soft smile walking towards him and giving him a light kiss on the cheek before leaving. She had left all her things to show that she would be back.

He watched her go before he walked to his room.

Elijah looked at Marie. "Maybe you should go and talk to him."

Marie was already getting up. "I'll be right back" she headed upstairs after her son.

When he was in his room Christian sat on the edge of his bed.

She knocked once before walking in and sitting herself down beside him. "Are you alright Christian?"

"You'd think I'd be used to this." He told her as he watched the floor. "She's not the first girl to 'need time to think about things' though none of the others ever came back."

"Do you think she won't come back?"

"None of the other people who said that line did, why should she be any different?"

"That isn't what I asked Christian. Do you think she'll come back?"

"No."

"Why?"

"Because who would want to?"

"Someone that loves you that's who. You'll find that person Christian."

"When?" He asked. "It took dad over a thousand years to find you."

"But he did and look how happy we are. When the time is right she'll come for you...and with just one look at her you'll know."

He nodded. "I hope so."
