"I'm gonna go get changed then head to the black lake. See you guys later." I said, I hugged my friends later and kissed Sirius cheek then went to the dorms.
I got changed then went to the black lake with my sketch book and pencils in my bag.
(Outfit below without necklace)Since I put a fresh, and empty sketchbook in my bag, which has an undetectable extension charm on it, and thought I'd fill up the pages of all of our friends and all the good memories to give it to Lily for Christmas since her family, especially her sister is being weird about her being a witch. I did a few pages and I decided to get out my journal and write in it, since that was filled with letters to my parents, and I hadn't written in it for a while.
'Dear Mom,
I wish you were, I need your help and advice. I need you to hold me when I'm sad and I need you to say you approve of my boyfriend. I'm happy but I'm just waiting for the other shoe to drop because I know I can never truly be happy for long.
During the Summer when I was at home, Josh said he saw you and dad, and I didn't know what to think, I want to see you again, but what if this is just another trick? What if it's not and you're actually back but for how long? I miss you so much. A lot has been happening, I am now at Hogwarts for my second year, I'm a fourth year, it's weird I know. The principal kinda looks like Gandalf but it's okay, I've made friends and opened up to people. Seven to be precise, I'm going back to Mystic Falls for Remembrance day, I'm also taking Serious with me. Yes I know, I'm taking him on the most depressing day of the year, but I need him there with me. I'm finally opening up to people and I feel like I can trust him with anything.
His family also found out that Sirius and I are dating and because they think of him as a disgrace and blood traitor, dating me, a 'Mikaelson', will get him some respect, and I think it's totally barbaric! Dating me for respect, it's crazy. I need you here, I need dad.
So, in the Christmas holidays I am going to a lunch at the 'Black Manor' so the family can 'get to know me' it's stupid really.
Apparently there's a war coming and I'm on the wrong side, I know I'm not. There are these things called 'Death Eaters' there followers of Voldemort, an evil wizard that wants to take over the world. It's all crazy and confusing, and I thought our world was crazy. I've got to go, I need to get to my friends. That's still weird to say, although I'm still friends with Lizzie. I have to go.
-Your Hope.'
Once I was done writing I put the journal in my bag and went back to the castle and to the Great Hall for lunch where I saw all my friends and boyfriend, I smiled and sat in between Lily and Marlene, I just smiled at all my friends not engaging in conversation, just glad I have them.
"Hey Hope, what're thinking about?" James asked, making them all look at me.
"Nothing, just glad that I have you guys." I told them, my smile never faltering.
"Aw! We love you to Hopey!" James said and we all laughed.
"What he means is that, we're glad we have you too." Remus said.
I put a burger on my plate, picked of the pickles and started eating the burger. "What you don't like pickles what's wrong with you?" Sirius asked reaching over the table and eating my pickles.
"No I don't like them, and there's a lot of things wrong with me." I said smirking.
Later that day I was in bed writing a letter to my father in my journal before I went to sleep.
'Dear Dad,
I wrote to Mom tonight, it helps with grieving. I'm at a new boarding school, all the way in Scotland, London. I miss you, I have a boyfriend now, Uncle Kol threatened him, but it's not the same. I have friends, it's great, but I need you. I really hope that Josh was right that you and Mom are really back. If you are, I'll try and make it permanent. I love you.
I hope that you're proud of me, because I tried to make you proud, I try and do right by the Mikaelson name. But it's hard when people don't give me a chance, but I'll do better. Better by the name and better by you. Night Dad.
-Hope'
And when I was done I put the book under my pillow and went to sleep where I was plunged into a dream, where the room was white and there was one person in the middle of the room, the one person I was just writing to.
"Hope." He whispered.
"Dad?" I asked walking up to him, slowly. Not blinking in case he disappears.
"What's going on?" I asked, starting to tear up."I wanted to see you one last time." He said.
"What-What do you mean?" I asked, walking so now I was in front of him.
"Your mother found peace, and Elijah blames himself for Hayley's death, and me, I'm ready to find peace. Josh was right, he did see Hayley and I. But Hayley found peace after that, the other side is collapsing, and if I don't find peace then I don't know what will happen." My dad told me.
"I'll- I can bring you back. Dad I can, I don't want to leave you. Please don't leave me!" I said, now crying.
"You have friends, Hope. A boy that loves you, I'm not leaving you. You'll see me soon. As well as Hayley." My father told me bringing me into a hug.
"When will I see you again?" I asked.
"Not for a very long time. You have to go, I asked Ester for this favour, but you have to go before she decides to keep you here." He said pulling away.
"No, I wanna stay." I said shaking my head.
I dug my fingernails into my palms so when I awoke I would know it wasn't a dream.
"No Hope. Wake up!" He said and I shook my head.
"Hope wake up!" I heard Sirius shout, I look up and around to see no one.
"You have to go now Hope, before Ester keeps you here. We'll see eachother again. And I'm at peace. Goodbye sweetheart." He said, bringing me into one last hug before I gasped awake and sat up, looking around to see Lily, Marlene, Alice, and the boys.
"What happened Hope?" Lily asked. "You started crying and saying 'no' and then shaking your head, then your heartbeat slowed and it stopped for a minute." She continued.
"I'm fine, just a-" I went to say but looked at my palms to see the healing crescent marks. "-dream." I said not believing my own words.
"No it wasn't Hope, what happened?" James asked concerned.
"I saw my father. He- he told me he was saying goodbye because he was finding peace." I told them.
"That's good right?" Alice asked.
"Yeah, but he asked Ester, something isn't right, she wouldn't just do it for nothing." I said and I stopped thinking. "If I stayed with my father for any longer, I would have died. Permanently. Like she always wanted. The bitch." I said shaking my head.
"Are you okay Hope?" Sirius asked.
I smiled at him and nodded. "I heard you... calling for me." I told him and he nodded. "We should go back to sleep." I said and they all nodded. The girls went back to their beds, Sirius climbed in mine and James, Remus and Peter took the couches and floor.
