Ineffable //Elizabeth Saltzman & Hope Mikaelson//

"Azalea"

After Hopes long dialogue the screen zooms in on Azalea she was sitting up on her headboard while reading a book then all of a sudden hope comes bursting into the room
(Azalea P.O.V)
"hey hope"Azalea says kindly even though she knows hope can't stand her

"Get up Dr.Saltzman wants you to go to his office" Hope says harshly

"Okay"I says and put my book on my nightstand

Azalea walks out the room and towards Dr.Saltzmans office

Once I reaches his door I knocks on the door and hear a small
"Come in"

Azalea enters the office and looks at him confused
"What did you need me for Dr.Saltzman"I say trying to be polite smiling at him

"i need you to make sure that nothing happens at that football game"

i nod "of course is that all?"

"you also need to open up to Emma more and if you can't then I don't know how much longer you can stay here"

i nod my head slightly and get up to leave his office

"wait azalea"

i look back at him

"promise me you will at least try"

"okay" i say quietly

Dr.Saltzman tilts his head a little

"i promise" i mutter

Alaric nods a little seemingly satisfied with her answer

Azalea walks back to her dorm and once she makes it in she sees hopes not here and assumes she's at the party

she sits on her bed and thinks to herself *maybe i should head down to the party*

Azalea walks to where the party is and spots Penelope in the kitchen with MG

"whats going in here" she shouts at them snapping them out of their make-out session and making there eyes widen

Suddenly Josie walks in and MG's eyes widen more while Penelope just smirks

"well its been fun I think its time for me to leave"Azalea practically dashes out the kitchen and back to the school

While walking through the halls she spots hope and... some random guy with her? She was going to go talk to them but realized the tension and continued walking to her room.When she finally gets to her room she flops down on her bed and decides to take a nap

The next morning Azalea wakes up to Josie  barging into her room "AZALEA" she shouts

I rub my eyes "I'm up" i say groggily in my morning voice which causes Josie to blush but I think it's just me because as soon as it was there it was gone

"Damn how much do you sleep" she mutters under her breath "Emma wants you to talk to her and it's game day so get ready"

After Josie shuts my door I quickly get dressed and leave my room and head to Emma's office

I open the door to see Emma waiting for me and put my fake smile on

"good morning Emma" i say as i sit down and smile at her

"morning azalea"she smiles back

"now tell me how are you doing" Emma says curiously

"i'm doing great my week has been good and nothing really happened" i say cheerfully knowing damn well thats not what she meant

she looks at me knowingly like she was expecting something like i don't say the same thing every week

"i don't know what you want from me" i say calmly

after a long silence Emma breaks it "just try to talk to me next time but you can go now"she says checking her watch

Azalea quickly gets up and walks to the cafeteria getting breakfast and greeting some of her friends before walking through the hallways and accidentally run into two people the force making me fall

i look up to see the twins one looking angry and the other concerned "i'm so sorry i didn't see you" i say quickly

"it's o-" Josie gets cut off by lizzie

"are you blind watch where your going"she says harshly and Josie nudges her shoulder and she just shrugs

"i'm really sorry i didn't mean too" i say standing up and keeping a smile on my face the whole time

"just like watch where your going next time" lizzie says hitting my shoulder while walking away while Josie looks back at me apologetically and smiles sadly

Instead of smiling back at her I just start walking away towards my dorm once again

But one question storms my mind

Why is Lizzie Saltzman so mean to me?
