AUTHOR'S NOTE:
This is dedicated to my best friend Jarrod (@fiercedeityyuhh) who introduced me to Attack On Titan that has both made me happy and sad.
(Jean's Point Of View)
Thump. Thump. My heart races as I chase the kid who lives nextdoor to me. He and his friend are fast, much faster than me. I struggle to keep up. My foot grinds against a rock. I lose foothold and fall on my hands and knees. As I look up, I see my neighbor continue running away from me.
His friend seems distraught as he glances from me to his fleeing friend who's getting smaller in the distance. He frowns and begins to prance toward me. “Hey!” he shouts. “Are you all right?” he asks when he gets closer to me. He helps me sit up and stares at me with concern.
I cough and say, “I'm fine.”
“My name is Marco,” he says as he kneels down to examine my bleeding knees.
“I'm Jean.” Marco peers at me then softly blows on my wound. He pulls a handkerchief out of his pocket and gently soaks the blood from my scrapes.
Marco scoots to sit next to me. He smiles at me and his brown eyes gleam. Now that he was close to me, I could see many freckles dotting his face. I watch as his hand reaches toward me and wipes my tears. “Please don't cry. Jean, do you want to be my friend?” He takes hold of my hand and guides me to my feet. I feel a rush of burning from my knees and I clench my teeth.
“I'd be glad to, Marco.” He giggles. I grunt as he wraps his arms tightly around my neck. Marco loosens his grip and I return the hug.
