NOBODYS POV:
There was complete silence in the room. Josie stared at Hope. Hope stared at Lizzie. And Lizzie Well Lizzie stared at the two girls.
,,Tell me. What the hell is Lizzie talking about? " Josie said. Hope dares not look at her.
"Nothing important," Hope said, still not looking at Josie.
The brunette rose angrily from the small sofa. ,,What do you mean. from 'nothing important'? You come back to my life after 5 years, you make me trust you again and the girls got used to you and you were dying but you didn't tell me ?! Hope, how could you? "Said the brunette.
This made the red-haired girl look at the brunette.
After looking at her, she saw how many emotions were written on her face.
,,ANSWER ME!" Cried the brunette, pushing Hope on the shoulder.
Hope stood up and stood against the brunette, but said nothing.
Josie started pushing her on the chest and shouting, "ANSWER ME! WOULD YOU LEAVE ME AND THE GIRLS? TELL ME!"
Hope just looks at Josie and says nothing. This makes the brunette even angrier and hits Hope in the face.
That didn't move Hope, but it made her speak. ,,I will not die."
Josie hit her one more time, but harder, and she bled her nose. ,, LIAR"
"Josie, let her talk." She told Lizzie, holding her sister by the shoulder, not to hit Hope again.
Josie just laughed hysterically. ,,To talk? We've been here for fucking 15 minutes and she's only said 3 words. " Josie said, pushing her sister's hand over her shoulder.
The brunette turned to Hope one last time. "I am the mother of two happy girls. I will not allow you to ruin their happiness. " The brunette said and left the office.
A tear ran from Hope's eye. Lizzie walked over to her in an attempt to hug her. "I am sorry. I didn't know you didn't tell her. " Lizzie hugged her.
After releasing her, they returned to the couch. "What did it mean that you wouldn't die like you told me?" The blonde asked. Hope just took a deep breath. ,,I will not die. I talked to Freya the other day while Josie and the kids weren't home. " Said the red-haired girl, playing with the rings on her fingers.
"What Freya said?"
FLASHBACK•••
NOBODYS POV
While the children and Josie are not home, she calls her Aunt Freya.
"Hello, little one. Is everything alright?" Freya asked. Hope is sitting on the couch.
"Um, yes. In fact, everything is perfect and I think that's weird. Did you find anything?" Hope Asked.
,,Everything is perfect? No problem with your magic or your wolf? That's... really weird. Uh and yeah i did find something."
"I know, this is what I want to talk about. Can you tell me what did you find? I think I have a theory," Hope said.
"Uh, yeah. One moment." As Hope waited, she looked around to see if she would hear Josie's car. Fortunately for her, she doesn't hear a car engine .
"Hope, can you hear me?" Freya asked. "Yes, I hear you." The red-haired girl replied.
"According to the book. You have a blood heir who uses magic or their magic because of strong emotion. In that case, it may be in defense or in strong anger or sadness. " Freya said with a short pause.
"Continue " Hope said.
"According to the book, after this heir uses their powers for the first time, you start to have a counter for the rest of your days, because the heir always does great magic or power because of the absence of their parent. If you find your heir, and they actually love you too. That means you won't die. " Read Freya.
Does that mean Hope won't die? Her daughters saved her life without her understanding.
,,I will not die." Hope whispered.
END OF FLASHBACK
NOBODYS POV:
Lizzie sits on the couch next to Hope in shock. Her best friend will not die!
The blonde hugged the girl next to her tightly. "Lizzie, I know you're glad I'm not going to die, but don't kill me anyway." Hope said, patting Lizzie on the shoulder.
"You have to tell Josie." Lizzie said excitedly. "I want to, but she won't believe me. I'll give her some time. I will take the children and we will go home. " Hope said, getting up from the couch.
Lizzie quickly stopped at the short girl. "Don't be afraid. I will take them home. And you need to get some rest. Go to the old mill and think about what you will say to Josie when you see her. " Said the blonde. Hope just smiled at her and hugged her. "Thank you, Lizzie. I owe you." Hope said as he left the room and headed for the old mill.
About 20 minutes later, Hope was sitting on the docks, lost in thought.
She does not want to lose what she has built so far.
She doesn't want to lose Josie, Andrea or Olivia. These are the people she loves the most in this world.
She is so lost in her thoughts that she does not notice the presence next to her.
Josie sat next to her with red eyes and a swollen face from crying.
After Hope noticed, she said nothing. She just looked at Josie and turned back to the lake. She hugged her legs with her hands.
There was complete silence until Josie broke it. "Lizzie told me everything." The brunette said so softly.
"I'm sorry I hit you." The brunette said again. "I'm sorry I didn't tell you the truth before." Now it was the redhead's turn to speak.
Hope turned to Josie only to find that Josie was already looking at her.
"I am sorry I reacted that way. I'm not ready to lose you again. " Josie said, resting her head on Hope's shoulder.
Hope didn't know what to say. What did she have to say?
"I don't think I'm going anywhere without you." Said the red-haired girl, kissing the brunette's head. "You are my family. The only thing I have. I wouldn't want to lose you for anything in the world. "
A tear ran down the brunette's face as she heard the words.
"I want to wake up and go to bed with you every day. I want to wake up from the cries of our children when they play. I want to wake up from your kisses. I want to wake up from the arms of children. I want you to take my last name one day. To call yourself ' Miss Mikaelson'. I want a future with you. " Hope said in her sobs.
Now Hope wrapped her arms around Josie. The brunette lifted her head from Hope's shoulder.
She saw how red her eyes were. How frightened she was that Hope would lose her. But this will not happen.
Josie leaned over and kissed Hope. With so much passion and love. So much desire and feeling that it cannot be described.
They will be together.
They are together.
