The girl at the door (Hosie)

Chpt. 12

Hope POV

"What are you doing" I say grunting as I sit up holding my head. Josie sniffs and try's to hide her face from me.

I slowly get up still holding my face. I walk over to her and she hangs her head low. I bend down as she clutches a book to her body.

"Are you okay, what happened?" She still doesn't look at me and hands me the book. I take it from her unsure of what it is.

"This book might give you some answers" I read the page but when I was done I slowly close the book and put it down.

"Aren't you going to read it?" She say still sniffing. I sigh and grab her face and wipe away her falling tears and sigh. I get up and look at her as she still hasn't lifted her head.

"Let's go search around the house" I say holding my hand out to her. She slowly puts her hand out and takes mine and I gracefully lift her up onto her feet.

my head still hurts like a bitch but I hold onto Josie hand. I pull her around the house, nothing to special about it and everything seemed to be in check. It's almost like I never left this place.

Something about the house made me feel at home and for that it made me calmer. Josie and I make our way up the fancy stairs, there's only two bedrooms upstairs. Both rooms had there own bathrooms and there own little balcony.

The one on the right must of been my room due to their being some of my clothes in the closet. I sit down on the bed and look around the room, faint memory's of the room flood my mind and I smile.

"Is this you and Sydney?" Josie says as I see that she has picked up a picture.
"Sydney?" I say confused taking the photo from her.

"Sydney" I repeat as the picture has her and I hugging. I smile at the photo.

"Hope where is Sydney?" I continue to stare at the photo. I run my finger over her face and put the photo back down.

I don't say anything more to Josie as I hear her sigh.
"I'm going to go shower in the other bathroom" Josie says and I nod my head.

Josie walks out my room closing the door on her way out. What did happen to Sydney?

I don't know where she is and that makes me scared. What if she is dead somewhere? What if she just left? Did she go with me?

I hit my head with my hand which makes me groan as I hit the same place where I hit the ground. I fall back down onto my back.

I don't know how long I just stared at the ceiling before I pulled myself up and walked to my bathroom. Maybe I just need a shower.

I quickly strip and hop in the shower as the cold water hits my body I feel a thousands times better. I sigh as I finished cleaning up. I hop out the shower drying myself and putting on my pj bottoms and a black bra.

It was hot and I didn't feel like wearing a top. I walk out the bathroom but collide into someone.

"What the fuck?" I say as I steady myself by grabbing the person. I look down to see Josie in my arms.

Josie looks just as shocked as I am but her eyes soon travel to my chest and my face goes red.

"I-so-rry" she stumbles on her words and I quickly pull away from her and turn around.

"Jesus Josie, I didn't think you were going to come back into my room!" I put my hands on my face which is probably the same color as a tomato.

"I'm sorry I just wanted to ask you something" she speaks way to fast.
