Hope's Best friend

Not fair

Before can get to the bus depot we hear sirens behind us. We turn around to see sheriff Donavan in his car. We stop and wait as he gets out.

"Shouldn't you two be at school?" He asks.

"That's where we're headed." Hope says.

"Get in I'll give you a ride back." He jumps in the car. We follow and get in the back of his car as usual.

You know how I said we sneak out a lot, well we get caught....a lot. We basically always get back to school by sheriff Donavan. And yes we do get in trouble.  We get our supernatural classes taken away for a week. Just regular boring classes for us.

We return back to school with professor Saltzman and headmistress Salvatore standing in the driveway. They look mad.

We get out of the car.

"Hope Mikaelson my office now." Professor Saltzman walks away. Hope looks at me and than follows him.

"Thank you Matt." Mrs. Salvatore says. Sheriff Donavan nods and drives off. She looks at me pissed. "You know the drill." She walks off. I follow her into her office.

She sits at her desk and I sit in front of it.

"I know I know. Lillian you shouldn't have done that. But I promise it was for a good reason this time." I explain.

"Go ahead." She gestures me to continue.

I take a deep breathe. "You see I want to tell you but I can't. I mean I can but I can't."

She gives me her signature look.

"Just give me my punishment and let me go." I angrily say.

"You will not talk to me like that. But you will have no magical arts classes for the rest of the year. Except for exams. And no summer in New Orleans." She explains.

"What!?" I jump out of my seat. "That is so not fair."

"The decision has been made. I am your guardian. Now get to class. You have already missed half the day." She goes and types something on her computer.

I storm out the door. I walk down the hall and wait for Hope.

She comes out of professor's office looking more pissed than me.

"What happened?" I ask. We start to walk to to class.

"I've been suspended." She says.

"What for sneaking out?" I ask.

"No I may have gave Henry Benoit my blood to become a hybrid." She smiles innocently.

I stop her so she's looking at me. "You did what?"

"What he wanted to become a hybrid. He's been asking me for months." She explains. "My mom is on her way. What was your punishment?" We start walking again

"No magic classes for the rest of the year. And no summer with you." I sigh.

"That's so unfair we've been spending the summers together since we were 8." She looks as mad as I feel.

"Yea." Is all I can say. We show up at my class. I give her a hug. "Don't leave without seeing me first okay?" 

"I promise." She hugs me back. "Always and forever."

"Always and forever." I smile. I open the door and head into class.

"Ms. Benson you're late." My teacher mr. Rogers says.

"Yea I was with headmistress Saltzman." I explain.

"Take your seat ms. Benson." He says.

I look around the only seat is next to Alec. Great.

I sit next to him. Yes I'm in a senior class. It's chemistry,  I'm kind of really smart. My dad was a genius, you know before he became a drunk.

Alec puts his hand on my thigh. I move it away.

"Okay with the person next to you figure out questions 3-7. We will discuss next class. Than do the experiments in the classes to come. The teacher says.

Everyone turns to each other. I take a deep breathe and turn to Alec. 

"You do three problems and I'll do the other four. Than we'll give each other the answers to the questions we didn't do. We don't even have to talk to each other." I say. I turn to my desk and start my problems.

"I don't really think that's how it works." He says. "I think the point is to answer this them together."

"Well that's not how it is gonna work."

He makes me turn to him. "We should probably talk about the kiss."

"There's nothing to talk about. You caught me at a bad time. And as I said before you're not my type."  I say again.

"Come on meet me at my room after dinner. Just to talk. Nothing else. I promise."

I look at him. "You do realize I'm stronger than you. Both physically and magically right?"

"Come on Lilly. Please." He begs. I look at him. He looks almost sad.

"Fine." I give. 

He smiles and begins to do his problems.

What did I just agree to?
