Hosie: I'm Different

Come over

It had been a week since Hope and Josie's talk. They had been texting continuously throughout it and calling and face timing. and Hope had come to the realization that she had a crush on the girl. Hope would smile whenever she received a message, she would get agitated if it took to long, She waited for the night so her and Josie could call, and she got butterflies every time the girls face was on her screen. Hope was curious to see where this crush would go, after all Hope had never been in Love before and who knows where it would lead. 

Hope and Josie were currently talking on the phone and laughing with each other when out of nowhere Hope cut into the conversation "Come over tomorrow". Hope noticed Josie look at her surprised before she spoke "Hope, Do you think that's a good idea?" Hope smiled as she answered "Of course its a good idea". Josie laughed a little before nodding "Okay". Hope wasn't expecting Josie to give in as easily as she did but was happy to hear her reply "Okay?" Josie laughed again before nodding "Yes Hope, I will come over". Hope grinned as she spoke again "So, what do you want to do when you come over?" Josie just shrugged as she spoke "It was your idea. You decided something". Hope nodded and smiled " Okay, so snacks and a movie are  definite. Maybe I can give you a tour of the grounds. Then we can have dinner and hang out doing whatever we like". Hope couldn't help but smile at How happy Josie looked "Sounds like a plan". 

Hope smiled and looked at the time "Shit Jo we've been on call for like 5 hours". Josie just shrugged and raised her eyebrow "So what? Is it past your bedtime Miss Mikaelson?" Hope could hear the teasing tone in Josie's voice and matched it "Absolutely not Miss Saltzman, I don't have a bedtime". Josie smiled as she settled down in her bed "I might go to sleep now though. I'm kind of tired see you tomorrow at say 10 am?" Hope frowned a little as she didn't want Josie to go yet "Hey Jo, Would you mind sleeping on the phone with me?" Hope noticed The little smile that made it's way across Josie's face "Of course not". Hope smiled as she also settled in her bed before speaking to Josie once more "10 am sounds good by the way". Hope smiled as her only reply was a quiet hum from Josie. Hope laid watching Josie for a while until she could see that her breathing had evened out. Hope felt a warmth build up inside her as she spoke "Good night Jo". And with that Hope also settled down to sleep. 

Hope woke up at 9.30 am. Checking the time she quickly swore as she climbed out of bed rushing around to get dressed. After about 10 minutes she was fully clothed and was brushing her hair when there was a knock at her door. Finishing her hair quickly Hope got up and answered it seeing her maid "Miss Mikaelson I have you washing". Hope just shrugged the maid off as she passed her "Yeah, just put it away". The maid just nodded as she entered the young Mikaelson's room. Hope Ran downstairs and quickly greeted her aunts before going into the walk in fridge and grabbing a bag of blood. Hope quickly poured it into a glass before discarding the bag. Just as Hope was about to take a sip she heard a knock at the main door. Smiling Hope turned and walked to the door answering it coming face to face with Her crush. 

"Hey". Hope smiled at How nervous Josie looked but then noticed what she was looking at. Frowning Hope quickly put the still full glass on the drawers next to the door "Sorry, I missed breakfast But It can wait. Come in". Hope was surprised when Josie walked in picking up the glass of Blood and handing it back to her "You need to drink". Hope took it from her gently before smiling lightly "Are you sure?" Hope Watched as the girl just smiled and nodded and her heart skipped a little. It was a small gesture but Hope wasn't used to people being okay with her drinking blood. Her maids wouldn't touch it and when they saw her drinking it would just give her a disgusted look and go do something else. Hope took a sip expecting Josie to look away but instead she Held Her gaze and stood smiling "Nice?" Hope smiled lightly but hesitantly as she answered "yes". Hope watched again as Josie just nodded and smiled with no uncertainty in her voice as she answered "Good". 

Hope was surprised by How okay Josie was with her drinking blood, It was almost like it was a common thing for her. But Hope didn't know how that could be possible. Hope and Josie were now walking around the grounds of the Mikaelson's estate And talking. They had decided to do the Tour first before watching a movie. Hope was currently walking through the woods with Josie when they finally reached the lake. Hope watched as Josie's eyes practically lit up "Wow. It's gorgeous here. Hope was just looking at Josie's face as she answered "Yeah It is". Josie turned to Hope and saw She was looking at her and Josie blushed. Hope noticed and smiled as she looked out at the lake "This is where I come to read and sunbathe sometimes. Its peaceful". Josie just smiled as she looked across it "It seems it". They stayed hanging out at the lake for a while until Hope Decided it was time for them to head back and watch a film. Josie had agreed and they headed back to the Mikaelson mansion. Walking in Hope greeted her aunts then introduced them to Josie. Josie was hesitant at first but soon relaxed as both the older woman smiled at her warmly "Welcome Josie. Please make yourself comfortable. If you need anything don't hesitate to ask the staff". Josie nodded and turned back to Hope who had grabbed her hand "Ready to go watch a film?" Josie swallowed thickly the touch from Hope feeling like electricity and they headed upstairs to Hope's bedroom.
