About them

The orb

   ~3 Days Later~
Hope POV
   I woke up with a massive headache I am never sick last time I was sick was when I was 7 and the hollow was effecting me. I sat up and got ready for the day and went to the kitchen and got some water. I was thinking of a few night ago after I brought Josie back to school because she wasn't feeling well.
   On my way back to my room the other night I saw Landon in the school entrance hallway and he was just staring at me...but I couldn't help but star back at him. A part of me still had a place for him in my heart but also there was still that part of me telling me to push him away and so that's what I did. I haven't seen him around the school but I think it's for the best.
    Dr. Salzman told me that I had to run some test for him I don't know what for but I agreed to do it for him even though I felt terrible. I went to his office and looked at the papers he layed our for me to read for his test as I was reading through them I saw that the test that I would be running were on Landon to see if he was supernatural or not. I was waiting for Landon to come to Dr. Salzman office so I just sat in his office and waited reading over everything I had to do.
   I few moments later in came the cute boy to Dr. Salzman office I was happy to see him but him not so much. "No way...are you the one running my test today." Landon says kinda pissed.
   The way he said that hurt my heart because I wanted to tell him I'm sorry but I knew that if I apologize than my feeling would grow even more for him so I said "Trust me this is not how I want to spend my day ether."
   "These test determine wether or not I get to stay at the school right?" Landon says.
"Yes...and I know that you would rather be doing something else but there is nothing we can do about it." I said trying to sound annoyed.
"No your biases I'm not letting you run my test." When he said that it was like a shot to the heart.
   "I am not biased...trust me I don't want to do this just as much as you do."
   "See biased."
   "Let's just get this over with." I said leave the office and going outside with Landon following slowing behind.
I ran the first couple of test and he failed them I still wanted to give him a chance though so I kept trying. I tested his strength,Jumping, speed, and more but still no supernatural abilities. So I decided to ask him some questions so we went to the lake and sat down. I brought out a thing that is basically a lie detector test.
"So this here will tell me if your telling me the truth about why your here so say your name." I said looking at Landon.
"Landon Kirby." The orbe turned blue saying he was telling the truth.
"Okay now lie...what's your favorite food?"
"Rabbit." Landon says with a discussed look on his face and the orbe turning red telling me he was lying.
"So its a supernatural lie detector?" Landon says looking up from the orbe.
"Basically your worst nightmare." I said trying not to laugh.
"Okay bring it on Hope." Landon says giving me a little smile.
"Okay...where were you born?"
"I don't know." Landon says looking from me to the orbe and sees that the orbe turned blue.
"Who are your parents?"
"I don't know my mom name is Syla...pretty much all I know she gave me up for adoption when I was young." The orbe turned blue.
"And your dad?"
"Never met him." Orbe turned blue again.
"Why can't you be compiled?" Saying trying to think of good questions.
"I don't know up until a few days ago I didn't even know what compulsion was." Landon says with a little laugh and the orbe turning blue.
"Why did you take the knife?" I said quickly.
"I don't know I remember doing it but I don't remember why." The orbe turned blue again.
"It's not good enough if we can't figure out what you are than you can't stay at the school." I said kinda sad because I don't want him to go.
After that I got up and started walking away i was standing in a different part of the garden and I heard Landon come up behind me.
"You said you would help me get answers." Landon says walking to me.
"I didn't even want to do this don't blame me because your not special."
"I apologize for lying I explained why I took the knife why are you still so mad at me?"
"I'm not mad, I couldn't care less..." I looked down and saw that Landon was holding the orbe and it was glowing red indicating that I was lying. So I looked back at Landon "Fine it's easier to be mad."
"Why?" Landon says quickly.
"Because it is." I said raising my voice a little.
"Or maybe it's because if you stop being mad your letting your guard down and the legendary Hope Mikaelson couldn't possibly do that?."
I looked at Landon for a second because I knew he was right "when I let my guard down people disappoint me." I said looking at the orbe tune blue in his hand.
"Growing up in the foster system every time I got sent some place new I hoped that this would be the right place...like you know click your heals three times no place like home kinda stuff you know just somewhere where I actually belong but it never was...you know you can only hold out hope for so long and be hurt by so many people before it seems impossible to trust someone especially when they lie to you so for the last time I'm sorry I broke your trust and I don't want to do it again." As he finished his sentence the orbe turned blue and I took it out of his hand "Thank you."
"Just if this goes the wrong way can you just make sure that Raf doesn't follow me this time. As much as I want to stay here he need to he finally found a home he deserves I'm not going to take that away from him." Landon says and than walks away and I watch felling sad for everything he just told me.
