Jo, when are you gonna face Hope? The girl is barely holding it together as it is'. Lizzie spoke softly as I was sprawled out on top of my bed. My head buried under my pillow.
'I want to! Trust me I really, really want to.. but every time I see her I just freeze. And all I can do is head for the nearest exit. God I really am an idiot.'
'You're not! But you are being a pussy.. guess you are what you eat!' Lizzie started laughing uncontrollably when I shot up from my bed and hauled every pillow I could get a hold on at her head.
She fell backwards and I launched myself at her swinging pillows and everything. When we both fell down laughing and feathers covered Lizzie's entire bed my sister wrapped me in a big hug. I really needed this.
'Seriously tho Jo, you two are a mess without each other apparently. Hope is breaking bones of teachers and you skipped lunch like three times already this week just to avoid her.. and it's only Wednesday! Just man up and talk to her! You're the strongest, toughest, witch-badass walking these halls! Go get your girl!'
'I wouldn't know where to start Liz.' I sighed, 'she must be so angry with me and I can't blame her.'
'I don't think she is. The fire is long in the past Jo, nothing you can do about that. But right now you're hurting Hope.. and yourself.'
'When did you become an Hope Mikaelson expert huh?!' I asked raising my eyebrow at my sister.
Lizzie started laughing again. 'Well Hope and I do actually.. you know, talk. Like normal people do! And to make up for all the evil things I threw at her the last couple of years I'm doing everything in my power to make this team Hosie thing happen!'
'Lizzie! Stop!' I couldn't stop myself from blushing. 'Even if she's not mad at me anymore, she's with Landon. I never stood a chance.'
'Sweet, sweet sister of mine, why is I so impossible for you to see for yourself how much you're worth? Go take a long, hot shower and go see Hope later. Be honest with her and you guys will be just fine. This shit's been going on for far too long and I'm ready for it to be all about me again!' Lizzie winked while opening the door to our room.
'I'm gonna see what dad is up to, good luck sis! Oh and wear the short black jumpsuit! Trust me on this one!' And with the biggest smirk Lizzie left.
I guess a long, hot shower it is.
Lizzie is right tho, I have to face my demons. Or in this case, one particularly beautiful tribrid. Who half of the time looks at me like she wants to rip my head off.
Fresh out of the shower, I put on the cut off black jumpsuit Lizzie talked about and let my hair fall loosely over my shoulders to air dry. Slipping on my black high heels, I look in the mirror one last time and apply some light make up.
'At least I'll meet my end in style.' I laugh to myself.
Okay, here goes nothing..
