From three to five

Chapter 16

Hope POV

"Hope.... I- I can't explain" Josie says
"Roman, leave." I say
"But I-" Roman tried to talk

"I think you should leave before you're heart be the next thing ripped apart from you" I say

"See you later Josie" he says
"See, her never" I say

He left.

I looked at Josie and said nothing.

I went upstairs to see if hunter was okay. He wasn't here.

"Josie? Where's hunter?" I asked
"He's out with his god parents" she says

"Okay" I said before walking in the kitchen to grab me a blood bag.

Gosh was I hungry.

"So we aren't going to talk about what happened?" Josie asked as she came in the kitchen

"We might need couple therapy" I say

"What's going on? I thought you were good. I thought we had a good relationship. Now we get into fights every day" Josie says

"We didn't get into a fight" I say

"Listen hope I'm sorry for what I said. That was mean and cruel and it was untruthful. But I will say leaving your son isn't you" Josie says

I chuckled.

"That's kind of funny, seeing as I'm back here. I would never leaving hunter and I damn sure couldn't bring myself to leave  you either" I say

"Then why did you leave?" She asked

"Because I couldn't take it. I wanted to tip Roman's head off. I was so full of rage that I couldn't let hunter see me like this. I wasn't really planning on leaving but I decided to have my dramatic moment even though it was selfish" I say

"Your dramatic moment?" Josie chuckled

"Yup, I was taking a tip out of Lizzie's book" I say

"Hope. I know everything was mostly my fault because I let Roman into our life but you have to believe me.
I will do better. I will be better for us" Josie says

Did she really think it was her fault? Of course she did. It's Josie we are talking about.

"I don't blame you for nothing. I think we both made mistakes and we both need to learn from them" I say

"So you forgive me?" She asked

"Of course I do." I said before she hugged me

"But we are still going to couples therapy" I say as I pulled out from the hug

She then laughed.

"We really do need it" she says

"Also, Roman is no longer allowed in the house or near you and definitely don't want him near hunter" I say

"As long as you promise too stay with me forever" she says

"Always and forever" I say with a smile

Josie knows how much that meant to me so she smiled.

Josie POV

A relationship isn't a good one unless you have ups and downs.

I feel as if Hope and I get through everything. But we make up a little to fast. I know I should be happy that Hope decided to stay but I can't help but to think when is she going to do this again?
