All That I Really Wanted (English Version)

Find My Way Back

Josie paced up and down her room, unable to shake off the nervousness that was eating her up as the time for Hope to pick her up approached. She was a little grateful that Lizzie wasn't there to watch her collapse.

As much as she had downplayed it in front of Lizzie when she told her about her plans for today over breakfast, she couldn't deny how excited she was. Hope was the first person to suggest celebrating the fact that she had been chosen by the witches to represent them on the honour council. Not that she didn't know enough people or didn't have friends, but after her break up with Penelope she had isolated herself from people and now ...

There was no one.

Her mother, after texting her about this new achievement, returned her call three days later with a brief congratulation. Her father had only given her a smile and a little pat on the shoulder and then ran to do god knows what. And then there was Lizzie.

Sighing, she sat on the bed, the excitement fading at the thought of her sister. At first she didn't say anything, but after a few days, she was looking at her in a strange way that she couldn't understand.

"Ready for your surprise, Josie?" Hope asked, opening the door without knocking. Her smile faded when she found her sitting on the bed with her head bowed. Without thinking, she leaned in front of her and took her hands, rubbing them with her thumbs. "you're good?"

Surprised by her sudden appearance, Josie looked down at her hands, wondering why just the touch of her skin on hers felt so comforting. Then she shook her head and stepped back to her feet.

"Nothing, I guess I was lost in my thoughts"

Hope frowned as she got up, knowing there was more to it than that. But she reminded herself that she still had no right to pressure the brunette. Instead, it reminded her of her plans for the day.

"so. Are you ready to go? "

Josie nodded, the excitement coming back to her.

"Yes, just let me take my jacket"

They walked through the crowded hallways of the school, it was Saturday and all the students were outside, they went through the crowd in the hallways to a Bentley parked in front of the entrance. Hope surprised her once more by opening the door for her.

She smiled as she got into the car.

"So what exactly does this celebration you have planned entail?"

"I'm sorry, I can't tell you," Hope commented as she closed the door.

Josie watched her walk to the other side and slide behind the wheel, a smile on her face.

" and why not?"

"Because that would ruin the surprise. then I guess you'll have to wait and see "

Josie made a small groan and leaned back against the seat, but a small smile pulled from her lips. It was the first time anyone had done something like this for her and the fact that Hope was the first made her feel special.

They drove away from Mystic Falls, Josie had no idea where Hope was taking her until an hour later she could see the beach.

"Did you bring me to the beach?"

Hope laughed as she turn off the engine.

"I think it's pretty obvious, but yeah" joked the auburn girl.

Josie gave her a smile as she unbuckled her seat belt and ran out to sea.

Hope smiled as she saw the brunette take off her shoes to put her feet in the water. she takes the picnic basket from the car and walk over to the brunette, who returned to her.
