Sister From Another Mister (The Originals) {Finished}

Chapter One

I sat criss cross on my bed. I was writing in my diary. I loved writing so for my fifth birthday, mom bought me a diary.

Dear diary, it's me, Jackson again. I'm here to write down all my problem again. Well, Hope totally read you. I mean, I asked her and she's a terrible liar. I don't want her knowing all my secrets that I tell you. Anyway, enough about me. Hope is so close to getting her family back. Mom found a way. I guess, I'm a little jealous. Hope has this giant family, while I only have Hope and Mom. I love them with my whole heart, trust me. But I guess I just want to know my father. He died when I was a baby. One day I'll meet him, until then...

"Jackson! She's here!" Hope yelled.

I looked up, hiding my diary under my mattress. I smiled.

I climbed off my bed, almost falling. Clumsy me.

I saw grandma Mary and ran to hug her. Mary was my dad's grandma.

"Grandma Mary." I greeted, pulling away.

"Hey, sweetheart." She smiled, down at me.

~~~~~~~

I frowned, looking up at mom. I was pretty short, which I hated. But oh well.

"Do you have to go?" Hope looked sad.

"Can I go with? Please, mommy." I asked.

"I do. But I'll be back very, very soon. And I won't be alone." Mom said. "And you have to stay here, Jack. Okay? Take care of Hope and grandma Mary."

I pouted, but nodded in agreement. Mom smiled, hugging us.

"I'll call you every night before bed, okay?" Mom pulled away. "In the meantime, you both listen to Mary. Deal?"

Mom kissed her middle and pointing finger, holding them out. Hope and I shared a look, doing the same thing and sealing our fingers against each other. This is the thing we do.

"Deal." Hope and I stated.

Mom hugged us before saying goodbye to grandma Mary and leaving.

"You're about to have your family back, Hopey." I took her hand.

"Yeah, I am."

~~~~~~~

I woke up when I heard Hope gasp from the room next to mine. I got tangled in my sheets, hurrying to her room. Hope was on her bed, holding her teddy bear with tears on her cheeks. I climbed on her bed to sit next to Hope. I hugged her.

Grandma Mary ran in. "Hope. Sweety, are you okay?"

"I had a bad dream." Hope held on to me.

"Oh. Darling, it's all right." Mary hugged us both. "You're safe. I'm not going anywhere."

"It's okay." I whispered in her ear. "It's okay."

That night, I slept beside Hope, comforting her from her nightmare.

~~~~~~~

I shoved Hope off the bed. She fell, groaning in pain. I giggled. She glared at me before smirking. My eyes widened, hurrying out of her room.

She chased after me. I stopped when I saw mom. Hope smacked into me and we fell to the floor. Hope and I cracked up laughing. Mom smiled at us.

"Are they here?" Hope helped me up.

Mom nodded. "Are you ready?"

I glanced at Hope who looked excited. Mom walked us outside to where Hope's family were at. Hope's dad stopped when he saw his daughter.
