I slept all night long in her room. I woke up at 7 am. I got up and looked at Hope. Her eyes fluttered open. She jumped out of her bed when she saw me. "What are you doing here?" she asked while looking around her room. "Last night you were injured and I didn't want you to stay alone so I stayed here." I explained while she sat back on her bed. "You did that?" she asked. "Of course I did. You saved me last night. I could never thank you enough for that." I said as I sat beside her on her bed. "I'm sorry I yelled at you yesterday. I didn't mean to scare you..." she said while looking down to her bed. "Hey, stop. You can't scare me." I said while taking her chin in my hand to make her look at me. "Hope, even if the entire world tells me to stay away from you, I'm not going to do it. You have such a big heart and it's okay to let other people see it. If you tell me that you don't want to see me anymore, I will stop trying." I said while looking at her beautiful blue eyes. "But you have to tell me whaf you want first" I said. This time I was the one looking down. "Like I said, it's not safe for you to be around me. You could've been hurt yesterday if I didn't protect you fast enough.." she said. My head just got lower because I thought it was already the end of a story that didn't even start. "But I'm too selfish to let you go." she whispered to herself. She leaned over me, took my chin up to make me look at her and she kissed me. I got up because I was surprised that she did that. "I'm sorry!" she exclaimed when she saw my reaction. "Don't be!" I said as I sat on top of her laps. We then kissed passionately until we got interrupted. Someone was knocking on the door. "Hope?" the person said. I quickly recognized my dad's voice. I panicked. "Omg he can't see me here he would freak out!" I said looking around. "Hide under my bed!" she answered. I was getting up but she kissed me again smiling. I hide under her bed and she went opening the door to my dad. "Hey" he said. "Hi! Can i do something for you?" she answered. "No I just wanted to see if you were alright. You scared us yesterday" he said while walking in my room. "Us?" she said.
"Me and Josie. She so worried for you. She kept saying that if something bad happened to you, she would never forgive herself." my dad said while mocking me. Hope laughed. "I should probably go, I have to meet with Dorian and Emma" said my dad. "Goodbye" said Hope while she closed her door after my dad left. I crawled from under the bed to sit on it. "You wouldn't have forgive yourself if something happened to me" said Hope with a smirk on her face. "Don't joke about that." I said before I threw a pillow at her. Turns out a tribrid has incredible reflexes because she caught it and threw it back at me. "Ouch.." I said while rubbing my forehead. "I'm sorry!" she said. She stood in front of me and squatted to look at my forehead. "Did I hurt you?" she said with a worried look. "A little bit" I answered even if it didn't. She came closer and kissed my forehead like my mom used to do when we would get hurt. "I was joking, it's literally a pillow how could it have possibly hurt me" I said giggling. "Don't ever do that again. You scared me!" she said while pushing me on the bed. We spend all afternoon joking around. After couple hours, I sat down on her bed and looked at her. "Are you going to push me away?" I asked her. She sat down as well and looked at me with a serious look. "Look how fast our relationship developed. You're probably one of the best that happened to me in years. I'm not planning on pushing away now or never." she said. "You'll have to push me away if you want to get rid of me" she added winking at me. "You know what it means?" I asked her. "You're going to be stuck with me for a long time" I added with a big smile. "Oh no" she said while laying on her bed. I got on top of her and put my hands on her cheeks. "What am I going to do with you?" I said. She looked at me with her puppy eyes. "Maybe you should kiss me?" Hope said. "Hmm I don't know about that" I said while I pretended to get up. I felt her hand on my waist pulling me closer to her. I leaned over her and kissed her lips. After a minute of making out, we switch position and she was now on top of me. She was going to kiss me again when her phone ringed. "Fucking phone" she said while taking her phone out of her pocket.
Hope: Hello?
MG: Hi, I'm MG. Someone told me you were with Josie. She isn't answering her phone.
Hope: Yeah I'm with her. Wait I'm going to pass her my phone.
Me: Hi!
MG: Hey Josie, I was wondering if you were going to come watch my Wickery gameI completely forgot about the game. MG is my best friend and I went to all of his games but I guess Hope distracted me. Talking about her, she was kissing my neck all the way to my shoulders then got back up.
Me: Oh yes I'm coming... I just have to... get ready and... get some food to go.
Hope distracted me so much I couldn't even place 5 words together to make a sentence.
MG: Good! See you later!
I hung up. "Hope! I couldn't even talk because of you" I said with an accusing tone. "Sorry" she said. She started to get up but I wrapped my legs around her waist and my arms around her neck. I pulled her closer to me and hugged her. She tried to get up but I was still holding on. Once again, her tribrid abilities beat mine. She got up and carried me without even using her hands. "Cheater" I said while getting on my feet. "So you're leaving for the game?" she said. She genuinely looked sad and I didn't like to see her like that. "We're going to see each other soon" I replied. I took her hand and laced her fingers in mine. "Do you want to come with me?" I asked her. "I don't know... I don't really like to go at things like that" she answered. I looked at my watch and the game was about to start. "I have to go" I said. I looked at myself in the mirror in her room. It was night time so it was colder outside. "Do you have a hoodie or a sweater I could borrow?" I asked her. As an answer she got up and got in front of her wardrobe. She took a hoodie and pass it to me. I put it on and it smelled just like her. "Bye Hope" I said while leaving her dorm. "Bye Josie" she answered as I closed her door.
I arrived at the game and I sat beside my sister.
"Hi" I said while sitting. "Hi Jo, where were you today and who's hoodie is this" she asked. I blushed and I decided to tell her the truth. "I was with Hope, you know the hot girl in our class" I said while thinking about her. I got lost in my thoughts and my sister had to say my name probably 10 times before I heard her. "Josieeee" Lizzie said. "Oh sorry I was- what were you saying" I said still half distracted. "I told you that if you're going to date her, you better spend a lot of time in her room so I can have the room for myself and Jed" she said. I looked at her and she was staring at Jed. "You guys have a thing for each other?" I asked. "Not yet but it will come soon" she said confident as always. I watched the game without really watching it. When it ended, I went to see MG on the fiel and congrats him and his team. They won 35-22. MG asked me if I was going to the after-game party and I said that I was feeling tired. I went back to the dorm and knocked on a door. It took a good minute for someone to open. The door opened slowly and when the person saw me, she opened the door fully. Hope dragged me in her room and kissed me. "I missed you" she said. "I did too" I answered between two kisses. "I just wanted to tell you good night" I added. "You're not staying here for the night?" she asked confused. "I didn't want to invade your personal space" I said with a shy smile. "Oh you can invade my personal space and my room whenever you want" she said with a warm smile. "So are you going to stay?" she asked again. She looked at me with her puppy eyes. "You know I can't resist to this look" I said. We both put pyjamas on and layed in her bed. She was laying on her back and a was laying beside her with my leg wrapped around her two legs. My head was her her chest. She fell asleep before me and it left me time to think about what happened today.
My feelings for Hope were getting stronger every second I spent with her and I couldn't wait to get more of her.
