The morning came through and Josie was content to find Hope's warm naked body laying next to her on the bed, probably a sight she would never get tired of seeing. Her auburn hair were spread over some of her own pillow and the Mikaelson looked extremely beautiful in her sleep like that. Suddenly her phone's screen lit up and Josie's eyes darted over the name on top of the message saying "Dr.Saltzamn" which caught her attention.

"Why on earth is my dad texting Hope?"

Curiosity got the best of the brunette as she leaned over Hope and looked at the message on the screen.

Dr.Saltzman: What time are we expecting you back today? And don't forget to lock up after you leave.
10.27am

"Seriously my dad knew about this?"

"Josie, baby come back to bed.." Hope murmured in her sleep while trying to gather the girl back in her arms.

"Hope, you have some explaining to do." Josie said with a serious voice.

"Huh? What do I need to explain?" hope rubbed her eyes open.

"How did my dad know where we are? Of course, you're still plotting with him even though we've been through this before!"

"Wait a minute, how do you know your dad knows about this?"

"Because he just texted you, smart ass. And by the way, I do remember you telling me my dad was not going to be an issue. That means he knew all along. Because you told him about everything, again."

Josie sat up on the bed and moved her head between her legs in defeat, releasing a sigh at the same time. Hope tried to rub over her back gently.

"Josie, look..I've made a promise to your dad that I'm going to keep you safe. Did you really think I'd steal you away without his permission? I'm not that reckless."

"Yeah well it seems like you're trying to impress my dad more than you're actually trying to impress me."

"Well, it sucks that I have to make a choice between the two of you. Also, what's the harm in wanting to keep you safe and keeping him updated?"

"You still don't get it, do you?"

Josie got out of the bed and started dressing herself, then she headed downstairs to find the two boys watching something on the TV, pretending like they hadn't heard a thing from last night.

"About time, we are starving but we didn't want to poke around the kitchen without Hope's permission."

"Feel free to make yourselves some breakfast, I'm not really hungry.." Hope said coming right down after Josie and headed to the car to load their bags.

"We are leaving already?" Rafael questioned.

Josie followed the Mikaelson outside and stood there with arms crossed over her chest, as if she was demanding an apology.

"What's your problem?"

"What's your problem?"
