Thats Not All You Are To Me|Hosie/Hethan|

Jail Cant Keep Me

Chapter 16

The car ride was silent, neither dared to speak. Not that the auburnette wanted to, she actually liked drowning in the silence.

"Here we are" Dr Saltzman said, pulling into the school driveway. The auburnette looked around "This is where Josie will be?"

"Are you worried about her?" He asked "Did something happen?"

She turned to him "What, no? I just want to see her"

"More than everybody else?"

"Shes my bestfriend" Hope hopped out of the car, shutting the door before anymore questions could be thrown at her.

"Hope?" Jo's face lit up at the sight of the girl "You got out"

The auburnette smiled in return, she wasnt one to run up to someone and jump into their arms but this seemed like the time to do so.

The brunette almost fell over at the weight of the other girl. Everyone in the background stared with didbelief. "How are you feeling?" She asked, not letting her hands leave the girls shoulder but searching for any injuries.

"Im fine" Hope chuckled. "I knew that" The brunette rolled her eyes "How was prison?"

"How you'd expect it to be, can we go inside?"

"Y--"

"We have to talk, Hope" Dr Saltzman said, arriving at her side. "About what you did and the consequences"

Hope turned to the brunette who she was formally hugging giving the girl an apologetic look. The blonde in the distance stared in disbelief, her bestfriend never asked her to move. Not that she would move for Hope Mikaelson. And her bestfriend also never gave her an apologetic look, not even when she bit off the head of her stuffed animal at the age of 10. Maybe she was slightly jealous, being left out of the trio but she was also happy because she saw something the two of them didnt, she saw the real look behind Hopes look, love.

"Dont worry, Hope. Ill keep her warm" The blonde made her way towards the two, wrapping her arm around her twin. "Have fun" She waved the off, hoping they would leave quickly.

The auburnette, nodded not even glancing back as she left. Lizzie just assumed it was because of Hopes hidden feelings. "Twin cuddles? And Ice cream?" She asked her sister, thinking this was the most least suspicious/easiest plan to bash her with millions of unanswered questions.

"You did promise to keep me warm" Jo answered with a smile "But I get to choose the ice cream!" She added, already running to the kitchen. "No fair!" The blonde shouted.

"Was it self defense?" He asked, getting straight to the point. "No, not exactly" She replied. "Then why'd you do it? You know my rules, Hope. We dont kill"

"I dont live under your roof anymore, Rick. Which means I dont need to follow your rules."

"You're a tribrid, there are rules for a reason and unless you want me to take you down I suggest you follow them"

Hope let out a long breath of air "It was an accident, I wasnt in control"

"Hope" He frowned, giving her that disaproving look. She knew where that always lead, shes seen other students recieve that look and she knew where they ended up. The cells.

"Just let me talk to Josie first" She said quickly, attempting to reason with him. "And I'll be back here for whatever punishment you give me"

He stared at her, weighing his options. "I....fine"

She smiled, giving him a hug "Thank you!" And with that she ran towards the brunettes room.

"Vanilla?" Lizzie said, taking a seat on the bed next to her sister. "thought you'd like it more than Chocolate" Jo replied with a smirk, pulling out two spoons.

"Have I ever told you I love you?" Lizzie smiled, opening the ice cream. "No, I dont think so"

"Well-" She took a spoon full of ice cream "I definitely do" The blonde said, through the food in her mouth.

"So, you and Hope. Hows that going?"

"Its going good" The brunette shrugged, not knowing why she was being asked such a simple question. "You like her?"

She spit out her ice cream "What?"

"Jo!" Lizzie shouted, wiping the now liquid off her arm. "Thats disgusting!"

"I dont like Hope!"

"Yeah clearly!"

"The question was just shocking, thats all"

"Im your sister" The blonde fired back "You are suppose to be able to tell me anything!"

"I dont like Hope"

"You know, she likes you. She told me" The blonde only partially lied, she told the truth not the whole truth but a quarter of it.

"What? She did?"

"Yep, whenever we talk its all about Josie, Josie, Josie"

The brunette bit the inside of her lip. "But what about Ethan?"

"Oh, shes over the muggle, no worries"

"Too straight for her" The blonde added "Matter of fact, hes too straight for anyone"

"So...do you like her?"

"I dont know" the brunette admitted, still biting the inside of her cheek. "Shes beautiful, stunning, charming, confident and even if she doesnt see it shes kind and selfless and...did I mention beautiful?"

"Then whats stopping you?"

"Doubt" She admitted "What if she realizing im not the one for her? That im not the Josie she thinks I am?"

"She knows who you are, Jo"

"Josie!" The auburnette bursted in, maybe she had been listening in to their conversation. Only for a brief moment that is. But it was enough to hear what she needed to hear.

"Hope," the brunette briefly looked at her sister, a panicked expression quickly hidden when she looked at Hope. "How much did you hear?"

"Enough" She said, making her way towards the girl and cupping her face, she pulled her close suprising the brunette entirely with a kiss.

Hopes lips were always how she dreamed, soft like a marshmellow or anything made out of foam. And oh god, the auburnettes hand is sliding down her front and it just feels so amazing and its almost, almost too much.

"Still here!" The blonde waves, interrupting their moment.

They both looked to her, smiles of embarrassment. "Cock block" Hope mumbled.

The brunette beside her giggled "Uh...So are you two going to have sex or can we watch a movie?"

"I was thinking se-"

"A movies great!" Jo cut in, oh how she regretted saying that but she didnt want Lizzie to feel left out. The auburnette groaned "Buzz kill" She mumbled into the blondes ear as she plopped into the middle of the two.

"This doesnt mean im a third wheel now, right?"

They both turned to her "We havent even talked about dating" the two said in unison before taking a glance at the other. "Yeah, you're right. Forget it" Lizzie said quickly, turning the tv on.
