Hosie- Attraction

Chapter 43 "How can I help you- Jo?"

They walk downstairs seeing the whole family setting the table.

"Hey it's my favorite niece!" Kol yells.

Hope and Josie laugh together watching Kol walk up to them. He engulfs them both into a tight hug. Hope winces quietly and pulls away.

At that moment Kol pulls away as well and Rebekah walks up concerned.

"Kol did you crush our niece?" She asks.

"No way! She's way stronger than me, I couldn't have, it's not possible." He's clearly confused.

"Well you did something."

"Guys, it's fine. Uncle Kol you didn't do anything." Hope reassures.

Hope grabs Josie's hand again and kisses her knuckles. Rebekah gives Kol a look and he read her mind, without speaking they both decide on what to do, they nod their heads.

Hope looks between the two and before she gets the chance to run, they jump her, tackling her to the floor.

Josie stills, not sure if she should interfere or not. For a second it looks like Hope doesn't need her help.

Hope kicks Kol off quickly but fails to do the same with Rebekah.

She ends up grabbing both of Hope's arms, flipping her on her stomach and holds them over her head. Kol recovers and stomps back over to Hope.

"There's no way you should be that strong!" He yells.

Him and Rebekah switch places, he holds her arms firmly over her head while he puts his knees on the back of her legs. Rebekah grabs the hem of Hope's shirt and starts to slowly raise it to look at her back.

"Get off!" Hope yells, she squirms under their hold.

Rebekah and Kol's eyes widen as they see dark red deep scratches on her back. "Oh my god Hope,who did this too you? Do I need to schedule a beheading." Kol asks getting angry.

Hope sighs in annoyance, "Im fine okay. I'll tell you what happened if you let me up."

They both get off of her and she stands. She looks at her girlfriend who's standing awkwardly rocking on her tippy toes avoiding all eye contact.

She looks back at her aunt and uncle who looks at her expectantly, waiting on an explanation.

"Josie did it," She says. They were about to say something but Hope cuts them off.

"Before you say anything they weren't intentional and she didn't hurt me." she looks at her girlfriend watching her turn red. She chuckles lightly walking up to her and kissing her on the cheek.

"Let's just say she was feeling extremely overwhelmed." Hope smirks, recalling their previous nights.

Kol and Rebekah look confused for a second, they look at Josie's flushed face and Hope's smirk. That's when it clicks. A small blush covers Rebekah's face as she clears her throat. Kol on the other hand, grins widely and gives Hope a high five.

"That's how the Mikaleson's roll. My goodness Hope, she clawed your back like she was wolverine-" He's cut off by Rebekah smacking him upside the head.
