Hissac: A THBH story

Chapter 4

*For a better experience, I recommend listening to this song while reading*

"What have you done?" Chris asks shocked

"I was...I was just...help me...please...." Hope couldn't proceed anything. Her emotions were destroying her mind.

"Okay, calm down. Breathe. You're having a panic attack."

"What..."

"Just breathe. Think about a happy moment in your life."

Happy moment? Hope only had part of sad moments in the last months. What could possibly be?

"Hey...woah! What happened?" Isaac comes as well there. Apparently Chris called him

"Hope killed him."

"What? How..."

"No time for questions. Try to calm her down, while I figure it out what to do with the body."

"Hope. Hope! Listen to me. Everything it's gonna be fine."

"Yeah....says the boy that just went on a date..." Hope tells him off

"Angel, there is no time to bee jealous."

"Stop calling me that!" Hope yells and with her magic she pushes Isaac on a wall.

"Hope! You are losing control!" Chris yells at her

Hope finally realizes what is happening around her.

"I have to go." Hope says

"Isaac, bring her to the apartment. We'll talk later about this."

Isaac and Hope go back to the apartment in silence. No one said anything on the way. Finally, they enter in the bedroom and Isaac gets the courage to speak.

"Wanna talk about it?"

"You are the last person I want to talk to."

"Listen, I know our relationship is really shaky, but we need to work together and let our conflicts aside, okay?"

"So, in just a few days she made you that mature, huh?"

He chuckles. "I'm gonna let you sleep."

"Wait, where are you gonna sleep?"

"I have a feeling Chris won't let me sleep tonight, so at least one of us should."

"Good night, Isaac!"

"Good night, angel." He puts his hand on her cheek, then slightly walking it towards the hair, plays with a strand of her hair and then leaves the room.

(...)

In the morning, Hope walks in the living room, where Chris was waiting for her pretty mad, while Isaac was ting his shoes.

"Why didn't you tell me about your struggle?! I had to call Scott for that!"

"I'm sorry. I thought I had everything under control."

"Well, you don't! From now on, you won't be left alone. You'll go wherever Isaac goes right now."

"What?!" both of them yell

"That's not fair. Why don't you stay with her?"

"Because I have a meeting to attend and it's about the tonight's auction. Since I brought that up...you can both go shopping. Hope needs a dress anyway."

"Wait, do you still want me there? With a bunch of people?" Hope asks

"Of course. You're the important piece. We need that box ASAP, so you better learn to control yourself."
