Hope has a complex childhood, and while growing up her life revolved around meaningless sexual encounters and always getting herself in trouble. After spending a heated summer in Mystic Falls camp it's time to return to school, where she ends up bei...
The group navigated the forest while following Hope's tracking device, and Damon tried to hush everyone up as his senses picked up on some strange growling noise.
"Everyone be quiet. Once we find Josie we need to get the hell out of here."
"You're creeping me out, ugh."
"Don't worry, Elizabeth. Whatever it is our presence will most likely scare it away."
"Guys, I think I see her!"
Hope ran off towards some trees as she spotted a body leaning against one on the ground, feeling shocked with the state of the girl. She immediately gathered her in her arms protectively and applied a kiss on her forehead.

"Oh god, you scared me so bad."
"H-Hope..?"
"It's me, baby. You're safe. I've got you."
"I'm so sorry for hurting you."
"It's fine, let's not stress over it now. Are you okay?"
"My head's spinning. Where am I?"
"Josie!!! "
The blonde shouted while running towards the girl and kneeling down at her height. Although Hope wouldn't let her off her arms, Lizzie attempted to hug both of them and that made the brunette smile despite her drunken state.
"It seems like you've gotten a bit lost."
"How did you find me?"
"That's a story for another time, sweetheart."
"Hope you heard Damon, we need to go. This is not the time to chat."
"Josie can you stand?"
The girl tried to stand up but she stumbled and Hope immediately reached out and grabbed her, hooking one arm around her waist as Lizzie did the same from the opposite side. The group walked back to the estate, luckily there was no unexpected events on their way back, and they led Josie straight to the car, that's when Nick made an appearance.
"Leaving already??"
"You seem to be having fun with Park anyway, so why would you care?" Lizzie said with a glare.
"Hope?"
"Yeah, I'm going with Josie too she's not feeling well."
"How about you take her to our motel which is only like ten minutes away so I can come and find you afterwards?"
"Where's that motel Hope?"
"It's just around here, I'll show you. It's probably the best idea right now Ric."
