Hosie - I Had a Crush on you (Completed)

Chapter Thirteen - I've Missed You

Hope's Pov-

After hours of searching through piles of books, we basically hit a brick wall. I let out a frustrated sigh as I finish the last book. I can't believe that there is a fifty fifty chance that I could lose Josie anyway and I had just told her that I couldn't be with her because I was a danger to her. Now there is no one else that i'd rather be with right now.

"I'm sorry that there's nothing in these books that can help you" The elderly woman says. She starts taking the books and stacking them on top of each other. "But I want you to take them with you, back to the school you both came from. Remember, you're not going to find an exact answer written in any book. No one has ever found an answer so you just have to find the loop hole."

"That's difficult seeing as we have no idea where the cure had originated from or how to reverse it... we don't even know why it targets Gemini twins" I state. I run my hand through my hair and sigh. "We will take the books, thanks for your help" I say before walking out the door and sitting against a nearby tree. I put my head in my hands and cry. I could lose her and that's exactly what I didn't want in the first place. I feel a hand on my arm and I look up to see Josie. "You got here quick" I say with a small smile.

"It took seven hours for me to get here, question is... what are you doing here? and have you been crying?" She asks. I laugh and shake my head.

"To answer you questions, I'm here on a Ski trip and no I wasn't crying" I say as I wipe my eyes. Josie clearly didn't believe me but I don't care... I am never going to allow her to know about the merge until it's absolutely necessary. She sits down next to me, crossing her legs.

"How did you know we were coming anyway?" She asks.

"I know a tracking spell when I see one and I taught you how to do that... also I jumped into your mothers head and saw you and Lizzie. By the way, where is Lizzie?" I ask. Josie points towards the house.

"She had her reasons for coming and it wasn't for you... she has been missing mum and she seems to be the only one that'll help her with control. Also she didn't want me to come alone, she wanted to make up for the fact that she didn't tell me that you were okay and I had gone weeks without knowing how you were. You should have just called me" Josie says annoyed. "I wouldn't have come looking for you except it was Lizzie's idea"

"I'm happy that you came looking for me Josie" I admit with a sigh. "I've missed you"

"You have?"

"Of course I have. Now it's time for me to come back to school" I tell her. Josie's eyes widen and her smile is wide. She pulls me into a hug. "This time until I graduate"

Lizzie's Pov-

I walk into the house and notice my mum talking to an old lady. She stops talking when I enter the room. A soft smile appears on her face and she gets up to hug me. "You shouldn't be here" She says into my ear.

"Well, I wanted to help Josie find Hope and you just happened to be part of it Mum" I say. I pull away from the hug. "and I've missed you" I admit, rolling my eyes. "What are you and Hope doing in a house in Alaska" I say looking at the lady. "You can't possibly be recruiting her" I say a bit too loudly. The lady looks offended, but it also seems that she has no idea what I'm talking about.

"Why don't you go wait outside and I'll be out there in a second" Mum says. I ignore this and look at one of the books on the table. 'The history of the Gemini coven', what the hell...

"What is this?" I ask before picking up the book. Mum takes it from me and puts it back down on the table.

"Don't touch what isn't yours Elizabeth... go outside like I asked" She says sternly, i nod and walk outside to see Hope and Josie talking under a tree. I walk over and sit on the other side of Hope.

"Can someone please explain to me why the history of the Gemini coven book is on the table in there" I say annoyed. Hope looks at me and then suddenly seems like she is in thought.

"We are trying to figure out if there are anymore Gemini's out there" She says. I'm not sure if she's lying or not but I choose too believe her. "Isn't that right Caroline? We are looking for more Gemini recruits?"Hope says as she looks up at my mum walking out of the house. Her eyes widen slightly and she nods.

"Yes, exactly" Mum says. And it's her face that gives it away, they're lying and I'm going to find out the truth one way or another.

Hope's Pov-

We are on a plane on the way home and I am sat next to Josie on the other side of the plane to Caroline and Lizzie. Josie lets out a nervous sigh and I realize why... every time we have driven anywhere with Josie in the car she gets sick. She must have motion sickness. I put my hand on hers and give her a reassuring smile. "You're going to be fine" I say quietly. Josie nods and intertwines our fingers. I rub the back of her hand with my thumb.

"Thanks" She says before resting her head on my shoulder.
