Hopes P.O.V

Why was with the stupid sun always hitting my eyes when I'm trying to sleep. I slightly opened them and noticed that I wasn't in my room. Crap please tell me I didn't go home with anyone. I quickly shot up which was a horrible mistake since I got dizzy all of a sudden. I grabbed my head trying to let the moment pass. I looked around the room taking in every detail. The gray walls, a dresser to the right side, a chair off to the opposite side and the window that took up the entire left wall. Sigh it's my downstairs guest bedroom. Wait what am I doing here? I looked once more and noticed a girl looking at me in shock. I jumped out of bed to the other side. I couldn't really make out her features since she still looked kind of blurry. "Who the hell are you and why are you in my house" I yelled at her causing her to jump as well. I held my head when the loud sound pounded my brain. I had almost forgotten about the hangover.

"Chill okay. You got really drunk last night and you asked me to carry you home, which I did by the way" she snapped back at me. I narrowed my eyes trying to get a better look at the girl. She was in a defensive stance eyeing me.

"Wait what the hell is that awe full smell" I began to gag covering my mouth.

"You're vomit on literally everything. Including me" she gestured to herself to show she was in fact covered in some substance. I took a deep breath before composing myself. It didn't help that my head was now throbbing uncontrollably.

"Here I brought you some Painkillers and water, I apologize for just going through your stuff without permission." She cautiously handed them to me before slowly moving away from the bed. I eyed the water and the small bottle of Advil and brought my gaze back to the girl. She smiled shyly. Familiar same with her voice.

"Thanks...umm do you by any chance want to take a shower and possibly put on a fresh set of clothes. Your scent is making me feel even more sick" I downed the pills with water making my way around the bed.

"That's what I've been hoping for. You're alive and safe so I'll see my way out. Later" the brunette girl sarcastically saluted as she turned for the door. That gesture, why was it familiar.

"Where are you going" I yelled making her flinch. I didn't mean to scare her I just didn't know how loud my voice was. Normally I would kick anyone out of my house, but I didn't want her to leave. I wanted to talk to her some more or at least repay her in some way.

"Home so I can shower and change" her thumbs pointed at the door.

"Follow me" I rolled my eyes and made my way to my room. I turned back a few times to see if she was still following which she was. This random girl just so happened to take me home, and stay with me the entire time. I couldn't help the smile that crept on my face. I felt indebted to her, yet for some reason it didn't feel like a chore. I seriously wanted to pay back her kindness.

"Okay so the bathroom is through those doors. Leave your clothes outside and I'll wash them for you. In the mean time you can just borrow some of mine" I told the girl looking at her. She raised an eye brow and nodded before heading the direction I told her.

Once she was out of sight I dropped onto my bed thinking about what happened last night. I was with Jed drinking a few shots and then... I don't remember. I'm not a lightweight, far from it. How many drinks did I actually have. Slowly I turned getting out of bed and walked back to my guest room and grabbed my phone from the nightstand. I opened my messages to see a conversation between Jed and that girl. I looked at for a bit becoming confused all over again.

Jed: Hope Andrea Mikaelson. Where the hell did you go.
Hope:
Sup dude, uh don't freak out but I took her back to her house. And before you go off I'm a girl and I come in peace.
