Reuniting Tornedalians

"Then that's what you need to prepare yourself for."

"I am prepared."

He raised an eyebrow, but he let Michelle carry on.

"I trust him, I always have," Genevieve insisted pushing her plate away and getting to her feet to put her things into the sink.

"That I can see."

She rinsed her things. "I want to go check on him now..."

"Go ahead." He told her.

She nodded slipping past them and back to Marcus' room.

He watched her leave before he looked at Michelle. "I think she'll be okay."

Michelle sighed. "I guess we'll have to wait and see."

"We will."

She slid her arms around him leaning into him almost heavily.

Genevieve sat on the bed quietly.

He held her close.

Marcus was asleep.

"Your brother really loves her?"

She shifted into a small kitten curling up to lay against his side.

"It appears so." She told him.

Marcus stirred.

She smiled softly.

Genevieve purred softly nuzzling into his side.

He smiled slightly in his sleep.

He kept his smile.

She actually fell asleep laying there.

He woke up as it got late and he managed to leave the room without waking her, walking downstairs and into the back garden where his sister was waiting.

"You should be resting." Sophia told him.

"I can't rest anymore." He told her. "I can feel your anxiety from a mile off."

"She's young, you're tying her to you at her young age." Sophia told him. "I love little dove more than anyone, you know that."

He may not have woken her when he left the room but she sensed him being gone rather quickly, her cat form allowing her to sense the change. Genevieve looked around and not seeing him leaped off the bed and padded from the room following his scent.

"She's made her choice," Marcus told Sophia, watching the sky.

Genevieve changed back into her human and walked outside just in time to catch the last bit of what Marcus said.

"I hope you two have happiness."

She looked at her and nodded before turning her eyes onto Marcus. "Can you call a family meeting? I would like to talk to everyone..."

He nodded and all it took was a few seconds before the family were gathered.
