I'm Not Leaving | Hizzie

DRUNK

Everyone deals with grief differently. Some people think it's just sadness, but that's not true. Grief comes in many different forms like Denial, Anger, and the most common guilt. Hope was feeling all of this thing at the same time.

The first thing she did was try and resurrect Landon, but everything she thought of didn't work. She eventually gave up and went straight into anger and guilt and blamed herself for his death.

Hope decided that she didn't want to feel the pain anymore. She couldn't handle it. She sneaked into Alaric Office and grabbed his Stash; you know the one. And it wasn't for drinking. I mean it was, but that's not how she was going to numb herself from all the pain. She decided to get drunk then kill herself so that she could turn into a vampire and turn off her humanity.

Tonight was the night before the full moon, and right on schedule, the wolfs are throwing a party at the old mill. just west of the school. Hope would have been invited, but they knew the answer she would have given was no, so they didn't even bother. Landon was still on everyone's mind. How couldn't he be? At first, no one like him, but he grew on the people of the school. So this party was dedicated to him.

While everyone had fun, Hope was in her room, drinking alone crying. She had already been buzzed when she heard the noise from the kids at the mill. She decided that it can't hurt to see what's going on.

She grabbed her drink and jumped out the window. but she didn't land on her feet she fell on her face. she got up and made sure the bottle was still intact and walked over to the mill. She started hearing chants of Landon's name and became furious that people were making a joke of it. So she hurried to see what was happening then noticed everyone sitting in a circle. telling stories about the birdman.

She realized that it wasn't a joke, just a bunch of people saying goodbye. She thought about joining them but decided against it. There was someone in the circle that noticed Hope and ran after her.

Hope walked deep in the woods and sat by a tree and waited for the blonde to show up. She could smell her coming. As she took a sip, the blonde showed up out of breath.

"hey, Hope, why don't you join us maybe you can talk about how your feelings," Lizzie said smiling

"Pass."

"come on Hope the feelings are still there going to be in the morning why not try to make them hurt less," Lizzie asked.

"tomorrow, the feeling won't be there," Hope said

Lizzie looked at the Tribrid and noticed the bottle in her hand and knew exactly what she was planning on doing. "No, Hope you're not killing yourself just to turn off your humanity," Lizzie shouted.

"you're going to leave me as everyone else does, and then I will do it," Hope said

"I'm not leaving you not now; not never if I have to be by your side twenty-four-seven, I will." The blonde said while going down to sit next to Hope.

"if you're going to join me, you have to drink," Hope demanded

Lizzie grabbed the bottle and took a sip. Hope smiled, took the bottle, and drank a sip for herself. The two kept doing this until they were almost blackout drunk. and the whole time they haven't said a word, but Hope got curious and wanted to ask a question.

"Why do you always follow me like a puppy dog. Is because of how you treated me when we were kids or what." Hope asked

Lizzie smiled and said, "oh, wouldn't you like to know Mikaelson.'

Hope Nodded, and Lizzie leaned to Hope's ear and said: "I'm in love with you."

The short girl thought the blonde was joking, so she said: "if that's true, then kiss me." Hope not thinking she would do it, but next second the Blondes lips were on hers.

Lizzie passed out on Hope while their lips were still together. And she fell on the girl's lap. Hope got up and picked up the blonde and took her to her room. As she passed the mill, she noticed only two people there, Josie and Jade. They were talking about who knows what, but they looked adorable.

Hope got to the main building and walked Lizzie inside and navigated her to the room. Hope as drunk as she was told a spell and the door opened, and she put Lizzie on her bed.

Hope said a spell to change the blonde into a pair of pj's and went into the bathroom to freshen up.

She looked at herself in the mirror, and something changed. She didn't want to stop feeling she doesn't know what did it, but she had the urge to feel nothing. As soon as Hope freshened up and got changed. she laid down next to the blonde Making sure she was facing the side of the floor. And went to bed. A few moments later, the blonde turned and cuddled the auburn-haired girl. Hope didn't mind not feeling lonely and fell asleep.
