The kiss (Hosie)

Chapter 3

The next morning, Hope lay up in bed. The look in Josie's face after she kissed her fresh in her head. If Josie asked her, she had to lie. The kiss definitely opened her eyes, but nobody was allowed to know. Not even Maya. The truth was, in these past few days, she had forgotten about Landon. Hope looked at her watch. She almost had a heart attack! It was 2:27 and her first lesson after a whole day of free periods, was at 2:30! She quickly ran into the bathroom and made herself look good. She grabbed her books almost dropping everything on the floor and ran outside. By the time she got to her class, it was 2:34. The lesson was with Dr. Saltzman, Josie's dad. He was teaching them about the history of the werewolf packs. "Now, could anyone tell me all of the original wolf packs?" Hope raised her hand, "Hope?" Ric said, not expecting her hand up, "Crescent, Deep Water, Malraux, BosRoq, Poldark, Barry, and Paxon" Hope looked around. People obviously didn't know she knew the answers. "Well done Hope." Rafael, Maya and Ethan were also wolves. And at lunch they had a lot of questions.

"Yeah, but that's not the question, the question is, how did you know that?" Josie heard from Hope's table. She hated this. Hope hadn't talked to her or even acknowledged what had happen in her dorm no less than 12 hours ago. Josie looked down at the food on her plate. She didn't want this, she was craving something actually nice! When nobody was looking she snuck into the kitchen. She looked around in the cupboards until she found all the ingredients she needed. She was going to make a lasagne. Since her mother, Caroline, had gone to Europe, she hadn't had a good lasagne. She put the oil into that pan and put some music on. 15 minutes later, she put it into the oven. When she turned around she saw Lizzie staring right into her eyes, "Jesus Christ Lizzie!" She cried "You bailed on me and M.G, speaking of M.G, I think I actually like him..." she was talking for ages. When she stopped, it was unwillingly, the alarm for Josie's lasagne. When she got it out Lizzie begged to have some.

Then, the worst thing that could have possibly happened, happened. Hope walked in. "Lizzie, you almost give me a heart attack, make me listen to you blabbing on for an hour, and now your trying to steal my lasagna." Lizzie laughed at that, "it's not funny!" Lizzie could tell she was getting annoyed so she stopped. "What's not funny" Hope said strutting into the kitchen, "is that lasagna?". "Very observant, Hope. But no, it's my lasagna." She said, storming out of the room, lasagna in hand. "I don't know what you've done, but Josie never gets annoyed like that."

Hope needed to talk to Josie. She had clearly messed with her head and wanted to speak to her. "Josie, I'm... I'm sorry." She said, "Yesterday, Yesterday was weird. I want to thank you. But, you can't tell anyone and it meant nothing." She smiled at the brunette and she smiled back. "I know, I just...It's just. Well, I don't really know." The auburn haired girl could tell Josie wanted to say something, she wasn't going to pressure her into saying anything so she just turned to leave, "Hope. Are you going to the party, next weekend." Hope was obviously going, she would never turn it down, "Of course I am." Josie smiled, "I'll see you there." Hopes heart filled with delight. This wasn't going to happen, Hope wasn't going to like Josie Saltzman!
