Troubled Memories

Chapter 54- Solutions; Somewhat

Hope's POV

?: You know exactly what I'm talking about Josette.

Who was this guy? Josie seemed like she knew the guy. It didn't seem good either.

J: Clarke.

Cl: So you remember me? That's sweet, now where's Akayla?

J: Why do you want her?

Cl: She has something I want.

J: Whatever it is we can help.

Cl: Can you now?

Josie nods and I raise my eyebrow. How could she help? Clarke smirked and I rolled my eyes.

Cl: Oh Hopey, you seem like you don't remember me.

H: Because I don't, whoever you are leave us alone.

Cl: Stop playing dumb Hope.

J: She's not playing dumb Clarke.

Cl: So she really doesn't remember me?

J: No, she doesn't. We've been trying to find a way to- I shouldn't even say anything to you.

Cl: Why? What'd I do?

J: You pushed me into Malivore.

Cl: Me? When?

J: Are you being serious right now?

Cl: Just kidding, I know what you're talking about. Maybe I did.

Clarke walked closer to Josie and I stood in between them. There is no way I'm letting him get close to her.

Cl: Hope you need to move.

H: No, I'm not letting you anywhere near her.

Cl: Wow you're so scary. Go sit down like a good little mutt you are.

H: Excuse me?

Cl: Finally I got her back. I love this side of you. You get angry so quick, it's quite funny.

I punched him and he fell to the ground. He started to stand up and I kicked him down. He groaned and held his stomach.

H: I will end you.

Cl: Do it.

I knelt down and snapped his neck. He went limp and I looked over at Josie. I couldn't tell how she was feeling. It was a mixture of looks that she gave me. I just couldn't read them.

J: We could've-

H: No, we couldn't. Something tells me that this will be a long night.

J: You killed him?

H: He'll come back.

J: What?

H: He's in transition.

J: How do you-

H: Because he wouldn't be that dumb to do what he just did.

J: He didn't really do-

H: He would've done something.

Josie nods and sits on her bed. I sit down next to her and she shakes her head. I quickly stood up and she grabbed my hand. She pulled me down to sit down next to her.

J: You don't have to leave. I'd feel safer with you by my side right now.

H: Of course. Do you just want to talk tomorrow then?

J: I'm busy tomorrow.

H: Then tomorrow night?

J: I told Lizzie I'd watch over Akayla tomorrow night.
