Yayyy for wet dreams! hahaha, so for this next chapter I kind of want to switch it up to Marco's point of view, though Jean is my favorite to write (because he has such a potty mouth haha) buuuuutttt lets get back to the story! (:
Chapter 7
Marco walked toward the front of his house, turning back to look at Jean as he sped off to his own home.
'I really hope I didn't make him feel weird at all..' Marco wondered as he approached the door. Slipping the hidden key out from the potted plant next to the door, he slipped it into the lock and stepped inside.
Tossing the key back into the pot, he turned around only to be jumped on by his two younger siblings.
"Marcoooo!"
"Yay Marco's home!"
"Now you can play with us!"
"Marco!"
"Marco!"
He sighed as he picked up the two rugrats and walked over to the living room, where he plopped them down onto the couch. Marco looked around the room.
"Hey Alicia, where's mom?"
"She had to work late again so Missus Johnson brought us home. She's in the kitchen making us sammichs!" Marco sighed, another late night for his mom who already worked herself to the bone. Ever since his dad had died, money had been tight and Mom had to work two jobs just to barely make it by.
"I'll be right back, I'm going to talk to Mrs. Johnson"
"Bring us back our sammichs, pleeeeeease?"
"Alright, alright" Marco chuckled and walk into the kitchen, startling the older lady who has focused on the snack she was making.
"AHH! Oh it's just you Marco, could you bring these out to Alicia and Timmy?" she said, quickly handing him two PBJ sandwiches.
"Sure"
"Oh dear, Marco I'm afraid I have to leave now sweetie! Will you be alright with those two until your mom gets home?" Marco nodded, knowing it was going to be awhile until his mom got back. Mrs. Johnson smiled at him and picked up her purse.
"Goodbye, munchkins! I'll see you tomorrow!"
"Bye Missus Jay!"
"Bye Miss Johnson!"
Marco shut the door behind her as she left. He turned around and brought over the plate of food still in his hand. Alicia and timmy each grabbed a sandwich and took a big bite, while Marco sat down on the couch eager to relax.
"Cnf weh pay now, Marcoff?"
"Hey, dude. You know better then to talk with your mouth full, all the kids at school will make fun of you" Timmy stuck his tongue out at Marco. He chuckled, ruffling up both their hair. He walked over to the game cabinet and pulled out Candyland.
"How about we play this one?"
"Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!"
"I'm gonna wiii-iiinn!" Marco smiled and walked back over to the coffe table to set up the game.
They played for a few hours, Marco "losing" everytime but he didnt care. They were little kids, no matter what he always let them "win". Marco stood up and ushered them upstairs to get ready for bed.
"I don't wanna go tah sleep, I'm not tireeeddd!" Marco rolled his eyes, knowing fully well his little brother would be asleep in minutes.
"No buts, mister. Now go get changed!"
"Marco, when is mommy coming home?"
Marco stiffened a little, he hated telling them their mom probably wouldnt be home for another few hours since she worked the night shift. He patted Alicia's head.
"I'm sure mom will be home soon, and when she does she'll come in and give you a goodnight kiss!"
"Yay!" Alicia squealed running to her room. Timmy had already gotten changed and was sitting on his bed pouting under the blankets. Marco walked over and sat down on the bed next to him.
"Mom never tucks us in anymore."
"I know dude, but she'll be here in the morning to take you guys to school!"
"I miss Daddy.." Marco drew in a sharp breath. He reached down to give Timmy a hug.
"I miss him too" He said, laying Timmy back down. "Now go to sleep alright? You've got another big day of school tomorrow and you dont want to be tired" Timmy nodded and rolled over, snuggling into the blanket.
Marco stood up and walked over to the door, turning the light off as he closed the door halfway. Alicia tugged on his hand, dragging him into her overly pink room. She jumped on the bed and Marco at down next to her.
Pulling the blankets up to her chin, Marco fluffed up her hair once again. Alicia giggled and rolled to her side.
"Thanks for playing with us, big brother. You're the best" Marco smiled and kissed the top of her head.
"Goodnight Alicia" He stood up and walked over to the light. Turning it off, he closed her door halfway and tiptoed down the stairs to start his homework.
Slumping onto the couch, he pulled out his Chemistry book, a notebook and a pencil. This was his least favorite subject and it usually took him the longest, so he always did it first. Five pages of note later, Marco's hand was starting to cramp.
Glancing at his cellphone, the time read 11:17. 'Bedtime' he thought as he closed the notes into his book. Marco stood up and walked toward the basement, where his room was. Shivering, he walked into his room and turned on the light.
Grabbing his pajama pants from the hamper, he quickly changed and got into bed. Plugging his phone into his charger, he checked the clock to make sure his alarm was on for the next morning.
'Speaking of morning, I wonder what time Jean is coming to pick me up' He scrolled through his phone and hit new message.
hey, sorry if this woke you up. what time are you going to pick me up?
Marco put his phone down on the nightstand and stared up at the ceiling. 'He probably is already asleep, and you just woke him up' he thought. He was interrupted by his phone screen lighting up.
Nah, i was up doing hw. I'll b there seven. Don't b late freckles, or im leaving ur ass.
Marco smiled, relieved he hadn't woken him up.
lol alright i'll see you then
Placing his phone back on the nightstand, he rolled over and closed his eyes. Sleep came easily, as his thoughts drifted to the days events.
what did you think so far? Ijust wanted to give a little background about Marco, but i probably wont switch pov's very often, since i really like Jean's :D thank you so so sooooo much for reading this far, my dumplings! More is soon to come!
