The girl at the door (Hosie)

Chpt 1.

Josie POV

I groan as my alarm goes off and I put my pillow on my head covering my ears. I don't want to get up today. The alarm still goes off and I groan louder in frustration and sit up hitting my alarm clock. When it turns off a fall back down and sigh.

There's a knock at the door and I look up at the door.
"Yes?" The door opens and I see Lizzie standing there with a sweet smile on her face.
"Get up remember it's your turn to make breakfast" I groan and nod my head and Lizzie closes the door. I get up as my feet hits my carpet I'm already hating this day and I even have classes today so that's just great. In case you wondering I am in college and go to Trinity college a college for witchcraft. It's a good college.

I open the door putting on a jacket and walking out and down the downstairs. I see Penelope sitting already dressed. Her and I dated for a little bit but it never lasted. we are good friends and are cool about each other.

"Morning!" I turn around and see my best friend Harley still in her pjs. Her and I met at Starbucks a year ago and have already bonded so well it's like she was always in my life. Harley is probably one of the sweetest girl I have ever met but god damn Harley is super duper hot. She's straight though and it's not like I would have a chance with her.

So I would rather stay friends than ruin anything between us.
"Deep in thought?" I look up to met Harley's beautiful blue green eyes and she smiles at me.
"Yeah thinking about what I should make for breakfast" she nods and walks to sit on the couch.

"What are you making for breakfast?" Penelope says looking me dead in the eye. I shrug and walk around into the kitchen. Our apartment and that the four of us share isn't very big but it's clean and neat and has just enough space for all of us. I open the cabinet and decide that I can make some flapjacks. I grab the mixture and grab a bowl.

"You got class today?" Penelope says coming behind me and I nod my head not feeling like making conversation. Everyone knows better and leaves me alone when I'm like this which I'm glad for. I finish the mixture leaving it to set for a minute I grab a pan and turn the stove on.

After waiting for the mixture to set I pour some into the pan and make a circle. The first one was done I put it on a plate and make more and more.
"Food!" I shout and everyone comes running. I put the plate on the counter and grab the syrup. We all eat together until I finish mine and get up putting my plate in the sink.

"Want coffee?" Harley says to everyone getting up
"Me" Lizzie says
"I'm fine thanks" Penelope says getting up and sitting on the couch.
"Jo?" Harley says looking at me as I have dozed off. I snap back into reality and look at her with her beautiful smile.

"Yeah but I'll have to take it to go"
"Sure I'll put it in a cup for you"
"Thanks mom" I say and she laughs and I run upstairs and to the shower. After getting nice and clean I do my hair up in a high pony. I put on some ripped jeans with a rock shirt from a random band. I put on my vans and grab my backpack from my door and look at the time.

Fuck I'm going to be late. I run down the stairs and grab my keys from the table.
"Wait!" I turn around and Harley gives me my coffee. I smile and thank her running to the door.
"Bye!" I say and open and close the door. I run down the stairs to my car and hop in tossing my backpack in the back seat.

I start my car and drive down the roads turning right and following the long road. I step on it so I can speed through and get there on time. I only have 10 minutes. When I see my school I park my car in the parking lot and grab my backpack but I realized I forgot my assignment at home and I groan at myself.

Oh well as long as I can get out of there quick enough I might be able to get away with it. Like I said before today is going to be a bad day. I run to my class and take a seat apologizing for being two minutes late. I hope today goes quick so that I can go home.

Just too my luck the day went as slow as ever as I dragged my body around to each class but finally I can go home. I hop in my car starting the engine and drive off. I stop my car by home and hop out grabbing my backpack and walking up the stairs. I get my keys out and unlock the door walking in.

I put my backpack by the door and take my jacket off putting it on the rack. I see Harley sitting on the couch.
"Hey"
"Hi Harley" I say as she is watching pretty little liars and laughing at one of Hanna's jokes. I take a seat next to her. I know Penelope will be back soon from her art classes and my sister is probably upstairs.

"Your sister is upstairs by the way" and there's my answer.
"Not going to go say hi?"
"Nope I'll find her later" Harley turns to me and smiles that beautiful smile again.
"How was your day?"
"Boring"
"No interesting things happen today?" I shake my head and focus my attention on the tv. I see Harley shrug her shoulders in the corner of my eye.

I hear keys going into the door and I know Penelope is home.
"What's up losers!" I hear her say as she comes around the corner taking her shoes off and plonking down next to me.
"What we watching?"
"Pretty little liars" Harley says and I smile at her.
"Feeling better?"I shrug my shoulders as I see Harley giving Penelope death stares.
"What I was just asking!" She says throwing her hands up in the air. I can hear the rain outside looks like I beat the rain.

"Penelope and Harley be nice" I hear my sisters voice as she takes a seat on the other small two seater couch. I wave at her and she smiles at me when we hear knocking on the door.
"Did any of you invite someone over?"we all shake our heads as the knocking on the door gets louder. Harley gets up and walks around the corner. We hear her open the door.

"What are you doing here?" She says and we all get up and go around the corner to see who it is. I frown my face when I see Hope standing there she was wet from the rain and was caring a bag.

"Hey" she says and our eyes met and I huff and anger fills me as I remember what she did to me.
