Hope and Lizzie haven't laughed together for a long time. So seeing them laughing together was a shock to everyone. Lizzie's so-called new friends walked up to the two girls. Alyssa laughed at the blonde, saying, "I see you went back to the trash after we threw you out."

Lizzie was about to say something, but Hope instinctively went got in front of her. She said "I don't think that's what happened you got jealous that Rafael liked Lizzie and not you. when she denied him, you felt like she can get anyone you want without trying, and it made you feel weak."

Their whole group stood silent, Speechless from what Hope had said. The short girl grabbed Lizzie's hand as they walked away. She had a small heart attack while waiting for the response she didn't know if the girl knew about what happened.

Lizzie pulled Hope into the bathroom as they passed one. She hugged the girl to thank her for standing up for her but didn't get the response she was hoping for. She pushed the blonde away, saying, "we're not friends while we are in private. I said I would fake date you not because I want to be friends with you. But because I needed the whole thing over the summer to disappear and this arrangement is good for both us. So don't go ruining it dragging me in the bathroom and trying to be friendly."

Lizzie stood there as Hope walked out. Shortly after, she walked out too, but what they didn't know was that there was another girl in the bathroom — listening to their conversation. Especially since it was Alyssa Chang. The ambitious girl immediately went on her phone and texted Rafael everything. On how to expose the two girls. She is hoping that he would like her back.

The new couple on campus spread fast by the time lunch rolled around, everyone knew. It's not like they are the first lesbian couple, but when they were friends. Everyone thought the two would end up together. And in a way they right if you don't count not being friends at all and faking the whole thing to avoid drama.

The two grabbed their lunch and walked over to an empty table when a couple of people walked up to them. It was Penelope and Josie, the only other gay couple in the school. Josie knew everything already, and she told Penelope. So they are the only two that know what's going on or the fake couple thought.

Without skipping a beat, Penelope had a smirk and said, "I bet Hope is good in bed." to make them freak out. the shorter girl spat out her food, not expecting that and said: "I mean, you should know better than anyone." And shot a wink

Now everyone was confused, and Josie didn't seem happy she looked jealous and walked away. Penelope ran after her. Lizzie says, "what happened with you and Penelope."

"it's a long story."

The taller girl didn't know her best friend liked girls in the first place, so this came to shock to her. She wanted to know what happened but knew she couldn't push it out of her.

When she finished her lunch, Hope got up and threw her tray out. She knew she had to talk to Josie because it wasn't fair that she blurted that out. She walked out of the lunchroom and went to look for her.

Hope looked everywhere and no sight of the girl, then she remembered her favorite spot and went there. She opened the back doors to the school, and that's were Josie was sitting. She walked up to her and said, "listen, Josie, I'm sorry about blurting that out. but it happened before you and Penelope dated."

The girl looked at Hope with her upside down mouth and motioned her to sit. She said, "what happened between you two."

"every Wednesday, I and she would be in the same therapy session. One day we connected or something. We were both sad at that time in our lives, and we needed to feel some warmth in this cold world, and it happened. But let me tell you it only happened once." Hope explained

"I believe you Hope to thank you for telling me."

Hope smiled and said, "I should have told you sooner, but after what happened with Lizzie, I don't know I was scared. that you would drop me as a friend too, so I never attempted."

"Lizzie is an idiot sometimes. This is not me defending her but she always wanted to be popular girl and when saw a sliver of the chance she took it. Also, I don't think you're mad at her for dropping you as a friend." Josie Pushed

Hope said, "of course I am. We have been there for each other, and I loved her." Without realizing what she was saying

"exactly what I meant you weren't mad you were heartbroken after she left you. because you love her as in more than friends."

The shorter girl let all the words sync in and realized that Josie was right. How can she be so blind to her feelings about the blonde? "I don't know how to forgive her Josie I want to, but I am scared that she is going to break my heart again."

"look at my lips Hope its never going to happen. She learned her lesson. Trust me. I hope you're not the only one that has had a rough summer. Just let her in, and you'll see."

They heard the school door open, and it was Lizzie standing there. Both girls got up and walked inside the school, knowing that it was almost time for the assembly. In the gymnasium. All three girls walked to the gym without saying anything. Penelope ran after them in a hurry, and Josie said: "look, Hope told me everything you don't have to worry about it."

Penelope's face looked so relieved as they walked into the gym and took a seat on the bleachers. Everyone was yelling and making a lot of noise and Hope decided. That she would take the first step in trying to mend her fear about Lizzie, it wasn't anything significant all she did was put her head on the taller one's shoulder, but it meant a lot to the blonde. That's what they always did back in the day.

Everyone watched as the principal came out and stood in front of the whole school. No one listened to what he was saying until he called Rafael's name. He came in doing backflips trying to impress everybody. It didn't.

When he got the mic, he started talking about how he would win every game this football season. What got Hope's and Lizzie's attention was when he said. "there have been two girls that have been lying to you all day about dating each other."

The principal grabbed the mic, but he yelled. "Hope Mikaelson and Lizzie Saltzman are not dating."

The whole crowd looked at the two girls, and they didn't know what to do. Josie elbowed Hope and said, "kiss her."

Lizzie shook her head, yes, and they both leaned in, and their lips touched. They kissed for a few seconds and then parted. When they looked in each other's eyes, only one word came to their mind "wow."

Josie said out loud, "if they were faking, would they kiss each other like that."

And again, Rafael embarrassed himself some more.
