Legacies: The Pure Coven

Chapter 6: I'll Be There Soon

MARCH 15, TWINS BIRTHDAY :

Hope and Chris were in Hope's room. They laid on Hope's bed with Chris laying his head on her stomach. She fiddled with his hair while she talked about Landon.

"And honestly, his eyes are so pretty." Hope babbled "And-"

"I thought you said you didn't have things." Chris cut her off.

They laughed.

"I guess that changed." Chris says.

"I guess so..." Hope sighs.

Hope gets up and gets off the bed.

"Where are you going?" Chris asks.

"I'm gonna go help Raf in the gym." she answers.

"Okay well, I'm not going to class so I can go with you."

"No. I think this is a me and Raf not a you, me, and Raf thing."

"Oh, ok well, I'm walking you there."

"Fine."

Chris and Hope leave.

Josie sighed and walked into her and Lizzie's room.

"Hey, I didn't see you at breakfast-"

"I'm too excited to eat." Lizzie cut off.

Lizzie swept Josie into a huge hug. They spun around while Josie looked around in confusion. Lizzie grinned knowing what she'd done the night before.

"Happy birthday to us!" Lizzie beamed. "Isn't it a beautiful day for a party?" Lizzie asked.

"You're... cheerful." Josie spoke.

"Why wouldn't I be? Mom's coming home," Lizzie turned around, "I had sex with Raf, my pores are practically invisible."

"Wait, What? You had sex?" Josie asked in shock.

"Yeah. Last night."

"Where?"

"The Old Mill."

Josie froze for a little 'I guess it's time to give up again' she thought to herself. Penelope walked into the door frame holding cupcakes.

"Happy birthday, witches." she laughed.

"What do you want, bitch?" Lizzie asked angrily, it was as if her mood flicked from happy to angry like a light switch.

"I just wanted to let you guys know that I heard your mom isn't coming. I heard them cancel her flight over the phone. Sorry. I brought cupcakes though." Penelope said, holding up the cupcakes.

Lizzie flung the door close with her telekinesis and turned around to face Josie.

Josie and Lizzie angrily made their way to Alaric's office.

"Uh, Dad?" Lizzie said getting Alaric's attention.

"When were you going to tell us that Mom wasn't coming back?" Josie asked. While Josie and Lizzie come to a halt in front of Alaric's desk.

"I didn't want to ruin your birthday." Alaric says getting up from his chair walking towards the twins. 

"Well, it's not going to be the same without mom here." Lizzie grumbled.
