You're Mine

S7 Ch10- Breaks over

Author's Note: A quick little summary or whatever, I have been extremely busy and i'm going through a rough time for the past several months. I know you guys probably forgot what happened in the last chapter so I'll do a little recap. Josie and Hope got in a fight, Hope went for a walk. They are deciding rather to end things or not. I think i've covered it all, if not please ask your questions and i will answer them. And i'm so sorry for the disappearance and not telling you guys. Let's get through with this chapter, shall we?

Hope's POV

I did order Josie a new plane ticket and it'll be going back to Mystic Falls and she'll be home. I am staying here a lot longer then what the whole vacation was meant to be. I need the space from everyone and I'll be taking that space. People may think I'm running away, which i probably am but only one can find out.

I went for a nice morning jog, which is rare but i still love to exercise and work out. It helps me with my stress and anxiety. I stopped at a local store and bought myself a nice refreshing drink. It tasted amazing.

After I drank it all, I went back on my little jog and didn't have a care in the world. Now you're all probably wondering, what i'm doing now. I'm now sitting by a cliff and enjoying the sunrise. I eventually got hungry and started my way back to the AirBnb.

Once I got back, I saw Josie standing out on the porch. She was so gorgeous with her robe around her body. I looked away from her and smiled. After I got inside the house, pretending to completely ignore Josie's presence I made myself some breakfast.

J: So you're just going to ignore me now even after we still have to talk?

H: Talk about what? You want space and I'm giving you that. There was no ignoring in it except for me walking past you once.

J: You never do that, you usually talk to me or give me a kiss on the cheek.

H: You're the one who thinks we should break up so I'm giving you the time to finalize that decision.

J: I never said I wanted that.

H: That's not what it sounded like last night or even the day before that.

J: I said 'probably' I never said I actually wanted it. Plus it just seems like you want an out.

H: We both know what I want.

J: Then why aren't you fighting for us anymore.

H: Because I simply can't put my time and effort into somebody who doesn't want the same thing.

J: Stop putting words into my mouth.

H: I'm not, I'm just reading the signals you give me. You're more worried about the school that has a thousand different barriers and bodyguards than our relationship. I'm simply not the problem. Did I make a few issues in the past, yes. Am I still making up for it, yes of course. Do I live in regret and guilt for the shit i've done, no because it's in the past.

J: Stop sounding so technical with all this crap Hope. You bruised my neck, bullied me and made your friends scared to talk to me.

H: Stop using the past against me, I told you i'm sorry and i've told you that i'll do anything and you simply told me to go. So i did and then you went on a whole finding me mission as if you weren't the one who made me leave.

J: How did i make you leave?

H: My heart has always been with you, I know i've made mistakes and I've been trying to fix them along the way but you keep putting them on me and making me seem like a bad person even though i've changed.

J: That doesn't explain how i still made you leave.

H: I wanted to protect you, I knew if I let my guard down then you'd be in danger and I couldn't let that happen.
