So Hes Not Gonna Kick Up A Fuss About Why She Chose To Do That To Him - Tumblr Posts

Imagine Marie is like driving Henry to school one morning or something, they’re just in the car together, and he looks over at his mom and goes

“….Mama? Can I be Henry Campbell?”

And Marie scoffs and shakes her head chucking softly before going “you don’t want to be a Campbell.”

And he knows better than to argue with his mama but he just kinda looks out the window and says softly “well, why not?”

And she just sighs and grips the steering wheel harder and goes “‘cause your grandparents were terrible people. You don’t want to be attached to their name.”

And he looks over at her face like “you’re a Campbell. You’re not terrible.” And he watches her eyebrows furrow and she goes

“I gave you your father’s name for a reason. Remember that. When you’re grown, you can do whatever you want with your name. But I can’t see any reason why you’d want to stop honoring him just to take the name of those monsters. Just drop it. I don’t want to talk about this anymore. “

And he just looks down because there’s no way he can possibly explain that she matters to him more than both George and his grandparents combined without severely pissing her off
