The best summer (where it all begun)

Chapter 10

Hope POV

"Josie I'm serious..." I say

"And I'm serious too" Josie says

I walked into her room and I sat on her bed.

"Josie I love you... and I know that this is wrong and selfish to say but damn it, I love you and I want to spend the rest of my life with you... I can't eat without thinking about you." I admitted as I fidgeted with my fingers

"You don't have to day anything, you don't even have to acknowledge me I just needed to get that off my chest because I'm going crazy, and I need you to know.... I even broke up with Landon... over phone.. which is pretty fucked up but i couldn't have him thinking that I loved him and he comes here and boom I'm not even in love with him.... That's wasting his time" I say

"Hope I-.....I don't know what to say" Josie says

"Like I said before.... You don't have to say anything... I know that you are in love with finch or Whatever and I don't want to jeopardize that, I just thought we should be honest with each other, and hopefully we can still be friends" I say

"Well if we are being honest... I never loved finch like I thought I did.... I just wanted to feel loved and have someone to hold me... but with finch it's like a friendship type thing.... With you it's everything a girl can wish for and yes this is selfish but I love you hope.... I love everything about you I love every part of you and I just want to be with you" Josie says as she sat on her bed

"What about how finch and Landon would feel?" I asked

"They can live.... I think it's time I did something selfish in my life and being with you seems like the best selfish option I can ever pick" Josie says

"Josette saltzman being selfish? I never thought I would hear that in the same sentence" I say

"Well when it's something that has to do with you then I will always be selfish... because I choose you" Josie says

"Jo it's not selfish to want to be happy" I say

"I know but I lead finch on knowing that's my heart wasn't all in it and that was messed up... I shouldn't have done that" Josie says

I love this girl... like I really really love this girl...

"So the only thing left to say is will you be my girlfriend? Or is that too soon to say? I mean you are still with finch... so maybe after you break up with her... if you are evening going to" I say

"I already broke up with finch and yes hope mikaelson I would be honored to be your girlfriend... although it is way too soon so maybe let's not tell everyone until everything dies down?" Josie asked

"Sure" I say before I leaned in to kiss her... She kissed back

"That's gay" I heard Lizzie say
