Hope's Best friend

Battles Fought

Tomorrow is Hope's 15th birthday. We are little over a month apart. Her birthday just so happened to be a few says after the full moon. Haley is coming to get us both. Just for the weekend.

I'm packing my things when I hear a knock at my door. The door than opens and in pops Hope.

"At least you knocked this time." I laugh closing my suitcase.

"You ready. Mom is here." She says leaning against the doorway.

I nod and we head downstairs.

We go to the  front of the school and I see haley's car.

Hope and I run up to her and give her a hug. Within these last years haley has become like my mother. Even though caroline is my guardian, Haley has become more of my mother than caroline. And Hope more of my sister than Lizzie and Josie.

"Are you ready girls?" She asks.

Hope and I nod. We rush to the car, throwing our bags in the back. Hope gets the front and I in the back seat.

Haley gets in. "Okay girls let's go." She starts the car and we start our ride to New Orleans.

.............

I wake up to Hope shaking me.

"Did I sleep all the way here?" I ask.

"Yep." She says. "With the help of me. You were having a nightmare so mom asked me to ease your sleep."

I smile and hug her. We head to the house and our rooms. Haley gave me my own room when she realized I was going to be around more.

I unpack and than go to find someone. I run into Freya.

"Lilly how are doing?" She asks. "I heard you triggered your curse and your first transformation was a few days ago."

"I'm doing good. It was hard but Hope stayed by my side the entire night." I smile.

"Shes a good girl." She says. "I think her and Haley are in the courtyard."

"Thank you." I say. I walk around and go to the courtyard. I find Hope and Haley talking in a seat. They notice me and smile.

"Come on and sit." Haley says pulling up a chair. I do. "How are you doing darling? The first transformation can be really scary."

"It was. But Hope helped me through it." I put my hand on Hope's.

"Anything for my bestfriend." She smiles.

"I really hope you two stay like this forever. Everyone needs a bestfriend." Haley says looking at us sweetly.

I turn to Haley. "So what is the plan for the Hope's birthday weekend?" I ask.

"Well tomorrow will be a relaxing day. I'm thinking girls day out. Pampering day."

"That sounds great." I smile.

"Tonight the witches are having a party in the cemetery and I was wondering if we could go. We'll be back by midnight." Hope asks sweetly.

"I dont know."

"Come on Haley. We will be extra careful." I beg.

She sighs giving in. Hope and I squeal in joy and hug each other. We than hug haley and decide to get ready. We run up to Hope's room. We get dressed.

Hope comes out in her signature black Jeans a graphic tee and a leather jacket and black lace up boots.

I go a little more girly. A blue graphic tee with a black skater skirt and black tights with black flats.   

Both our hairs are down and in its natural curl.

We walk downstairs. Haley is there taking pictures.

"My baby's last day of being 14." She says snapping a bunch of pictures.

"Mom stop." Hope laughs putting her hand over her face.

"Okay okay let's just go." I say pulling her out the door.

We walk to the cemetery, its alot further than I remember.

The party is in full swing. Witches from age 13 to 18  are here. The music is loud. 

I grab Hope's wrist  and pull her to the punch.  Two girls walk up to us.

"Havent seen you before. You're not part of the new Orleans coven." The one with bleach blonde hair says.

"Or course they aren't. They go to that special school in Virginia." The other says she has red hair. She points at Hope. "And that is Hope Mikealson."

The blonde steps forward closer to her. "The Hope Mikealson? Hmm. You're not what I expected."

"What did you expect?" Hope asks. I can hear the anger in her voice.

"You know more impressive. The all powerful Tribrid." The blonde exaggerates.

Hope steps forward and before I can catch her she says a spell under her breathe and the blonde goes flying. She is thrown into one of the grave stones.

"Hope." I say.

She looks at me and steps back realizing what shes done. She covers her mouth.

"Did I?" She asks.

I run over to her. "No shes fine. Maybe a few broken bones. But I think we pissed off a bunch of teen witches." I look at the crowd of people standing around the blonde. "We are screwed."

"Look I'm sorry I didnt mean to. I got angry." Hope tries to reason.  "Maybe we can work something out."

"Look we aren't going to do anything because we know who your father is. And we dont feel like getting slaughtered. So just go." The red head said.

Hope inhales grabs my hand and we  chant "domum evadere"

We arrive back to the house. Haley is waiting for us. "What happened?" She asks going up to Hope.

"I'm fine." She says pushing past her mom.

Haley looks at me.

"I'll go talk to her." I say heading to follow Hope to her room.

I sit next to her on her bed.

"I'm sorry I dragged you there." I look down at my feet.

"Hey its okay. It's not your fault. I went. I'm not mad about that." Hope reassures me.

"Than what is wrong?" I ask.

"My dad's not even here and hes still fighting my battles. I havent talked to my dad since I was 11 years old. But everyone knows who I am and who my parents are. I just want to be normal." She explains.

"Oh Hope we will never be normal. Even if your dad wasn't the Klaus Mikealson you'd still be a werewolf. Making you not normal. And hey if you were normal we may have never met." I try to cheer her up.

She laughs and pulls me in a hug. "You always know how to make me feel better."

"That's what I'm here for." I say hugging her tighter.

I hope this friendship last forever.
