I don't know how I feel about this chapter 🤷🏽‍♀️

"I just bought her food and we had some good conversation that's all."

Josie doesn't believe that for a second.

"There is no way that taking my sister out and having a couple of conversations, is what made her come back to you." She says.

Mg shrugs his shoulders."What can I say I'm a good conversationalist and I can be charming."

"Yeah right." She says before playfully pushing his shoulder.

"I'm feeling a bit hungry, aren't you hungry Ethan?"Hope says loudly, gaining both Josie and MG's attention.

Ethan looks at Hope who is just staring at her empty glass, playing with the rim with her finger. He decided to see where this goes.

"Yeah I could go for a bite. No pun intended." He says watching Hope intently.

"What about you Mg? You feeling hungry?"

Mg shrugs his shoulders."Sure, I could eat."

Hope nods her head.

"I'm sure we can order something." Josie says, she takes out her phone looking up places nearby.

"I'm not in the mood for take-out." Hope shrugs still fiddling with her glass.

Josie sets her phone in her lap, she picks up her own drink,"Well what are you in the mood to eat?"She brings her glass up to her lips.

Hope stops playing with the rim of hers. She smirks, and steals a side glance at Ethan. "You." She says loud enough for everyone to hear. Again sometimes Josie just makes it too easy.

Josie chokes back on her drink, MG's eyes widen as he snaps his head in Hope's direction, Ethan's mouth gapes open, both of his eyebrows shoot up in surprise.

Hope just simply grabs the pitcher, feeling up her glass before bringing it to her lips.

After what seems like five minutes of silence which in reality was five seconds, Josie recovers after violently coughing, she looks at Hope, her whole face is crimson red, "Hope!" She gasps.

Ethan comes back as well and nods his head in approval, He holds up his hand and high fives Hope, who just chuckles in response. "That was corny as hell but well played." he says.

MG stands up, walking towards Hope, surprisingly holding his hand up to give her a high five as well, "I gotta admit that was a good one." He says.

"Mg!?" Josie yells.

He turns around to face her. "What? E was right that was well played." He takes another gulp of his drink before grabbing the now empty pitcher walking to the kitchen. "Come on man, let's make some more." He says.

Ethan stands up, "Nicely done."he says to Hope before joining Mg in the kitchen.

"What was that?" Josie asks. Hope finally looks at her.
