"Your mom is not going to be happy if she finds out we are sneaking out" Josie whispered to Hope as she put on a jacket.




"I know... but she won't find out," Hope said opening her window. Just as she was about to step out they heard Hope's door open and froze. The two teenagers turned and let out a breath of relief when they saw that it was just Lizzie "where are you two going?" she said in a quiet voice as she closed the door.




"A party," Josie said.




"A party?? I'm coming" the blonde said and Hope rolled her eyes "team members only." Lizzie smirked "well I'm sure your mom would love to-" Hope quickly cut her off "fine! just let's go Maya is about to pull up."



The three teens quietly snuck out of the window and Hope gently closed it behind them before they made their way to the front of the house where they saw Maya parked across the street. Hope opened the door for Josie and the brunette got in followed by Lizzie. Hope got in next to her girlfriend and closed the door.




"You ladies ready to party?" Maya smirked and started the car, pulling away from the auburnettes house.



"As ready as we'll ever be," Hope said and leaned her head on Josie's shoulder. The brunette leaned her head against Hopes and the two interlocked their hands.

When they got to the party they noticed it was packed. Teenagers from mystic falls high where there even some of the Salvatore students were here. Lizzie looked around at the people "it smells like sweat in here."




"Well there are over a hundred people here" Hope commented and the blonde rolled her eyes. Josie grabbed a red solo cup from the drink table "let's get drinks" she said grabbing the vodka and pouring it into a cup along with some soda.




Hope got a cup of vodka and started drinking it. She was about to ask Josie something when she felt a pair of arms lift her up "Hope!" Jen said hugging her.



The auburnette looked down "Jen?? what are you doing here" Jen set her down "are you kidding? you know I sneak out for parties all the time dude."



Josie just stared at the two before clearing her throat. Hope looked at her girlfriend "oh! uh Jen this is my girlfriend Josie, Josie this is Jen my old roommate from the Salvatore school."



"I know who you are but it's cool to meet you dude" Jen shook her hand. Josie smiled at the girl "nice to meet you too."



"Yo Jen! I got it" they heard someone say. Jen turned to the person and nodded before looking back to the pair "I should go we're about to have a smoke sesh, you can join if you want."



"We're good but thanks, Jen."




"Guys they are doing beer pong in the backyard we should play!" Maya said and Hope and Josie shared a look before nodding.

-

Hope and Josie both ended up winning in beer pong... bad news is Hope was really drunk. She ended up drinking most of the beer cups since Josie complained she couldn't drink all of that.




"I'm gonna use the bathroom," Hope said her voice slightly slurred. Josie nodded "do you want me to come with you? the two were standing right by the stairs that lead to the bathroom "it's right there I'm okay" she kissed her girlfriend's cheek.




Hope stumbled her way up the stairs and to the bathroom where she used it. When she was done she walked out "yo Mikaelson! they are doing tricks into the pool off the roof want to join??"



"Sure!" Hope drunkenly said.




Hope made her way to the window and the guy helped her climb onto the small part of the roof. She stood up and looked down at the pool and the people cheering around her.




"Hope what are you doing?!" she heard Josie's voice from behind her. She turned and saw Josie standing out the window.



"I'm gonna jump in the pool!"



"Hope you're drunk come back inside okay?" Josie held her hand out for her girlfriend. Hope thought about it for a moment before nodding "okay" she said before going to make her way to the window only to lose her footing and slip.




"Hope!" Josie screamed.
