Wonder

Chapter 2

Hope and I haven't talked about me and Jade since she understood I didn't wanna talk about it. After another bad rehearsal, I wanted to talk to Landon about my opinions.

"Hey. So I don't get Elena at all. She can't decide what she wants and when she does, she makes a super selfish choice." I tell a very annoyed Landon making him more annoyed. "Yeah, well I think everything around her is changing and she wants a normal life. So she chooses herself." Landon basically says she's selfish. "Ha! See selfish. Oh! Oh! And the ending song is all wrong. Why would she sing about undying love when she's experienced so much loss?" My input clearly annoying him more. "Because I think the show is about never giving up on love, no matter what." This boy did not just say that when he's given up on Hope and me. "Well you don't believe that though, because you gave up on Hope like twice!" He looks at me like I just said the worst thing ever. I kinda feel guilty for saying that so I just walk away. Lizzie gets ready to sing Caroline's song but can't do it and runs away. I run after her to make sure she's okay.

Me and Lizzie are laying down in my bed when a knock makes me sit up. "Come in." Hope comes in the room and runs and jumps into my bed. She ends up landing on Lizzie. "HOPE ANDREA MIKAELSON!" Lizzie shouts pushing Hope off of her. Hope and I start laughing. Lizzie lays there with her arms crossed and a pout. "I thought Josie was the pouty one." Hope says her laughter finally stopping. My jaw drops and I look at her offended. "Heyyyyyy!!" Lizzie laughs at this, "She's got a point Jo. You're signature look is a pout." I grab my pillow and try to hit Lizzie but Hope stops the pillow. I've missed these moments.

                      Hope's p.o.v
There's only a week left until the musical and I can tell my friends are nervous. Landon seems more annoyed by them every day. Our guidance counselor who I think is the monster has been trying to get us to talk and make up. Why? Am I really that distracted when I'm with Landon? A certain brunette has been on my mind a lot lately. A pillow hitting my face snaps my out of thoughts. "Hope!" Jo says in a whiny voice. "You space out on me. If you need to be alone for a while I can leave." She starts to get up. I grab her wrist bringing her back down onto the bed.
"I'm sorry Jo, my thoughts got the better of me." She looks like she has something on her mind. "Hope I-uh....never mind." I move closer to her and put my hand on hers. She looks at our hands then up at me. "What is it Jo?" She starts leaning and I can't help but lean in too. I can feel her breath on my lips, we're so close to kissing when a knock on the door makes us jump apart.
"Hey Hope, is Josie in there? I need to talk to her." That voice makes my blood boil. "Yeah give me a second!" She shouts. Josie grabs her stuff and heads to the door. She looks back at me with a sad smile before leaving my room with her.
