She's my yellow/ Hosie/Hizzie

Now we are

I awoke feeling contempt and less guilty, seeing Josie find comfort in someone else is a hard pill to swallow, yet bittersweet.

I'm suddenly interrupted in my thoughts as my now unlocked door is thrown open.

I breathe a sigh of realease realising its Lizzie.

"Wake up Mikaelson, its the big game today... the one where the scouts are coming, If i get scouted, i'll get a scholarship to one of the big colleges" The girl shrieks.

It was too early for this.

"Oh sweet" I say as i sit up.

The blonde sits on my bed.

"Yeah apparently some of the Oxbridge universities will be there... you know from the UK" Lizzie says excitedly.

This starts to worry me, i hadn't even thought of the future yet i almost forget its in my near future.

"Oh right.. England.... sounds cool" I utter.

"Whats wrong Hope" the smile is wiped from her face.

"No i just- i don't know what i'm doing yet... you've got your life all sorted out, and theres me who doesn't have a clue" I explain.

The blonde grabs my hand and entangles it in hers.

"I know... to be honest i don't even know what i'd do, I can't bare the thought of leaving you, I was just dreaming anyway, the likely hood of me getting onto one of those colleges is slim to none, It'd be cool though to think about" Lizzie shrugs, now i feel bad for making her doubt herself.

I tilt her head to look at me directly.

"Listen Saltzman, you go out there today... and give it your damn fucking all, i want to see all those scouts fighting over who gets you okay? Don't worry about me at all, We'll cross that bridge when we come to it" I smile.

Seeing the girl smile back, this time looking like she was bound to remember something.

"Wait... i totally forgot one sec" The blonde darts out the room.

I sit there in confusion until about a minute later she returns with a small box and a letter before closing the door, a smile plastered on her face.

"What are you doing" I laugh at her as she stands there, quickly skimming through the letter.

"Okay... right okay i'm, really doing this... now... um okay" The girl gathers her thoughts.

"Its really weird how i'm more nervous for this rather than the big game but oh well... um okay ahem" Lizzie clears her throat.

"What is even happening" I smile before being cut off.

"Shush i'm trying to ask you something" Lizzie smiles.

"Okay Hope... well, I was meant to do this last night... but as you may know, i'm not the best with words or anything, yet i can only try" The blonde clears up.

"Okay so the road to where we are hasn't exactly been smooth to any stretch of the imagination, however i feel as if we have reached a space to where we can move forward a little... and um i'm not exactly a girl exactly known for 'commitment' so i don't know how you'd take this, but just know if you would want to" The girl moves closer, taking a seat next to me on the bed.

"If you would take a chance... i swear to you all my loyalty, all my trust... all my pretty much everything... well, would you maybe take a shot on this 'Heartless, Evil, Selfish' girl" Lizzie stutters out as she recalls the names i called her a while back in a fit of rage.

"Is this your way of asking if i'd be your girlfriend Saltzman" I smile, looking at her go bright red.

"Theoretically, if it was... what would you hypothetically say" Lizzie questions.

"I would tell this girl that if she hypothetically was asking me, i'd hypothetically say yes" I smile as i see her face brighten up.

"I'd love to be your girlfriend Lizzie... hypothetically speaking of course" I smirk.

I once more see her smile grow bigger as she hurridly clashes her lips against mine a short and sweet kiss.

"Here" The blonde softly whispers, handing me a small box.

Opening the blue velt box i see another necklace, this time having another engraving on the back reading the date... 16th of May... I check my phone to see the date was just that... the 16th.

"whats this for" I giggle, looking at Lizzie.

"Well, the date is that of today... the day i swore myself to you and you only, i thought it would be memorable especially for me" Lizzie smiles.

"So you were that confident i would say yes, You even got the date engraved" I laugh aloud.

"Oh you even know it Mikaelson, you're so madly in love with me" Lizzie sarcastically utters.

I remember i'd never said i did... but i certainly knew it.

"Yeah... yeah i am" I utter softly, seeing the girls face change from a cocky one to a more questioning one.

"You do?" Lizzie questions.

"Isn't it obvious" I grasp her hands again, letting her realise how genuine i am.

I see a coat of water fill the corner of Lizzie's eye as she quickly wipes it away, letting out a soft laugh trying to cover it up.

I start to laugh with her, i wasn't an emotional type of person but this was one of those emotional moments i wanted to last forever, you could tell how she put up such a tough guy front, yet deep ... deep inside she was just wanting to be loved.

"You've got something...right there" I joke, leaning closer to Lizzie, directing at a tear running down her face.

"Oh shut up" Lizzie happily sobs.

I close the gap, reassuring the girl of my feelings, i felt her lips quiver as i kissed them.

"Well then... now thats out the way" Lizzie wipes her tears.

"I-i have to go get ready" Lizzie stutters while checking her watch.

"Go on then, i'll be there" I reassure her.

"I'm counting on it" Lizzie speaks, as she exits the door.

I use my vampire hearing to hear her jump up and down as she left my dorm, her heart beating meniacly. 

This was special for sure... i say as i put on my necklace, now having two from Lizzie, both celebrating two seperate things....
