"Hope" The voice was so vague, almost like it wasn't there. Hope furrowed her brows, looking to her girlfriend of this world. "Did you hear that?" She asked, looking to the blonde. Lizzie shook her head. "Come back to bed."

Wake up

Hopes eyes jolted open, landing on the brunette. "Josie?" She murmured, almost as if her eyes deceived her. "We have to go, he has Lizzie."

"Who?" She asked.

"The man" She helped the auburnette on to her shoulder. Hope mumbled a few incoherent words, her body was fighting against every movement. "Where is he?" She asked in a pained tone as she looked around worryingly. "I don't know" She shook her head, opening the door.

Hope was already sweating, her body was so weak and drained. She could smell the blood coming off the brunette, she could hear her veins pumping and she so badly wanted to take a bite. Her fangs poked out, threating to bite on the girls neck. She shoved Jo away. "No" She shook her head, falling to the floor.

"What is it?!" Jo asked, looking down at the girl. "Get away from me" Hope warned, closing her eyes. "Hope—we have to get out of here."

"Go without me !" The girl shouted, her eyes glowing. Jo stood her ground. "You wouldn't leave me, I'm not going to leave you." She grabbed hold of the girl who fought back, she could barley move her arms they felt like they were 100 pounds.

"I dont want to hurt you ! Get off me !" She cried out, fighting against the brunette. Jo finally backed off, finding no use in fighting against the pale tribrid.

"Take it."

Hope looked up. "What?"

"Drink from me, you need it"

"I'm not drinking your blood" Hope shook her head. "I wont."

"You will !" Jo held her wrist out to the girl. "Drink it !"

"No !" Hope slapped it away. "No way in hell will I drink from you."

"Why not?! Huh?"

"I dont trust myself" Hope replied, looking down. "Trust me, then." She held her wrist out again. "Please Hope, you're basically dying."

"I can't die, I'm immortal" Hope forced herself to her feet, slapping the brunettes arm away again.

"You're so stubborn" Jo complained, walking along side the girl that stumbled into every single corner they passed. "Atleast let me help you."

"No ! Stay away from me !" She moved back when the girl stepped closer, making sure to keep a distance so it would lessen her impulse.

They had almost made it out, when Hope was thrown back.

The man stood there, an evil glare on his face. He grabbed hold of the brunette, holding her by the neck. "You didn't think it would be that easy now..did you?"

Hope moved her hair from her face, she had grown paler and honestly wasn't in the right state to fight at the moment. Jo struggled amongst his grip.

"What is your problem with me" Hope slowly stood back up, holding on to the wall for some leverage. He scoffed "I knew you wouldn't remember."

"Look—just let her go." She sighed, she didn't have much energy to talk neither.

"Let her go?" He smirked, crooking his head to the side. "Why would I do that? Shes your future wife..or atleast one of them." He winked, gripping on to her neck tighter. She began to struggle for air, every breath she took stung.
