Hope POV
I walk to Kaylee's room, and knock, because the door is closed. "Come in" I hear, so I open the door. They were both sitting on the bed, but Kaylee was sitting against the headboard. She was reading a book, and Faith was on her phone. "What's up?" Faith asks. "Room switch" I answer, putting my bag down. "Why? Trouble in paradise?" she jokes. "No, um...Caroline might've walked in while we were...kissing" I say. "Wait, you guys were kissing?" Kaylee asks.
"Mhm" I hum, sitting on the bottom of the bed. "Who initiated it?" Faith asks, sitting up. "Well, it was her idea, but I kissed her" I answer. "So, Josie did?" Kaylee asks. "I guess so, why?" I reply. Faith smirks, then says "I won". "Won what?" I ask. "We made a bet on who would initiate you guys' first kiss" Kaylee answers. "And you bet it'd be me?" I ask, in which Kaylee nods. I turn to Faith, then say "Why'd you bet against me?".
"Because I know you. You've never been the type of person to initiate a first kiss" she answers. "Josie's usually more shy, and less outgoing, so I thought it'd be you" Kaylee tells me. I chuckle while shaking my head. "How much was the bet?" I ask. "15" Faith answers. I roll my eyes, and lay back. "So, how's it going with you guys?" Kaylee asks. "What do you mean?" I reply. "You know what I mean" she says. "No, I don't. Please explain" I say.
"Never mind then" she says. "Quick question" Faith says. "What?" I ask. "Do you like her yet?" she asks. I look at her, and see both of them staring. "I already told you. It's only been a day" I answer. "That's not a no" she points out. I roll my eyes again. "You know, you're a horrible girlfriend" Kayles tells me. "What? How?" I ask. "Where's she now?" she asks. "In her room" I answer, not getting the point. "Alone?" she asks. "Oh" I say, sitting up. "Go get her, then come back" she tells me. "Will do" I reply, standing.
"Oh, and can you take that with you?" Faith asks, referring to her bag. I grab the bag, then leave. I walk to Josie's, and see her door is still open. She's laying at the top of the bed, on her phone, and biting her nails. She didn't notice I was there, so I silently sat the bag down, and walked over to the bed. I grab her hand gently, so she'd stop biting her nails. "Stop biting your nails, love" I tell her. "Sorry" she mumbles. I said a silencing spell, in case Faith was listening in.
"It's a habit" she adds. "You don't have to apologize, sweetheart" I tell her. "So, are you busy?" I ask. "No" she answers. "Why? Are you gonna hangout with me?" she asks. "Do you want me to hangout with you?" I ask. She gives me a shy nod, making me smile. "What would we do?" I ask. She shrugs. "Just...chill I guess" she says. Since I'm still holding her hand, I start playing with her fingers. I get on the bed, and lay next to her. "We have a few minutes to spare" I say.
We lay in a comfortable silence, and I continue to play with her fingers. Our hands were sitting on my stomach. I let go of her hand, and put both of mine behind my head. I close my eyes, and relax. Josie continues to let her hand rest on my stomach. Though, she starts to rub soothing circles slowly, which I don't mind. It's calming. I let her continue for another 3-5 minutes, then I grab her hand. I open my eyes, and look at her. "Come on, love" I say, sitting up.
"Where are we going?" she asks. "Kaylee's room" I answer. "Why?" she follows. I smile, but don't say anything. I stand up, and wait for her to do the same. "I thought we were having a good time" she pouts. "We were, babe" I say. "Then why are you ruining it?" she asks, still pouting. "We can continue later" I tell her. "But I wanna continue now" she argues. "How about this; we go now, and I'll give you whatever you want later" I offer. "Whatever I want?" she asks. "Mhm" I hum.
"Fine, but I'll be really upset if you break your promise" she tells me. "I won't, love" I respond. She stares at me for moment before sitting up, and moving closer. "Can you carry me?" she asks. "Is this the thing you want?" I ask. "No. I'm just asking you to do it" she answers. "Mmm, and why should I?" I follow. "Because you're a good girlfriend, and you want to please me" she says, smiling. "You're right" I start. "I try my best to be the best girlfriend I can be, and I do want to please you" I continue.
"In every single way" I finish, gently lifting her chin with my pointer finger and thumb. She immediately starts blushing, and I can see her gulp. "Come here" I say, chuckling. I lean down, and plant a kiss on her cheek. I grab her waist, and lift her. She wraps her arms around my neck, and her legs around my waist. I wrap my arms around her body, and walk out of the room.
Faith POV
"What's taking them so long?" Kaylee asks. "I don't know. I think she put up a spell so I can't hear" I answer. "What would they need a spell for? What do you think they're doing?" she asks. I was about to reply, but they walked in. Hope was carrying Josie, and Josie was literally clinging to her like her life depended on it. "And what were you two doing?" Kaylee asks. "Nothing" Josie answers. "Seriously?" I ask. "Yes. We were literally laying in bed, doing nothing" she says.
"Your legs ok?" I ask Josie. "Uh...yea ? Why wouldn't they be" she replies. My sister gives me a look. Guess she hasn't told her. "Why'd you carry her then?" Kaylee asks. "Because she asked" she answers. Kaylee nods with a small smile. Hope throws her arms up, and says "Aren't you the one who said I'm a bad girlfriend? Now I'm doing what she asks me to, and you're giving me shit for that too? God, make up your mind". She gently places Josie on the bed, and Kaylee chuckles.
"Why are we here?" Hope asks. "What do you mean?" Kaylee asks. "You told me to go get her, then come back. Why?" she explains. "Oh, right. We're watching a movie" Kaylee answers. "Seriously? Why do we have to watch a movie with you guys?" Hope asks. "Because we said so. Now, get comfortable" I answer, starting the movie. She rolls her eyes, but does what I say anyways. The both of them get comfortable at the bottom of the bed. They're laying close to each other.
They're both on their stomachs, and not really watching the movie. They're talking, joking, and laughing. They're whispering, so I can't hear. Though I do have heightened hearing, I can't focus with the tv playing, and if I turn it down, they'll know what I'm doing. Kaylee leans closer to me, and whispers "What are they talking about?". "No idea" I reply. The both of us continue to watch them even though we couldn't hear. I looked at the tv for a split second, and when I looked back, I saw them staring into each other's eyes.
It looked like they were gonna kiss, but Josie turned her head, and looked away. Though, Hope continued to stare for another 5 ish seconds. I turn my head, and look at Kaylee at the same time she looks at me. We share a knowing look, then look back at them. Hope glances back at us, then whispers something to Josie. Josie nods in response, then they both get up. Neither of us say anything, and let them leave. I pause the movie, and look at her.
"I think Hope likes Josie" I say. "Or she's starting to" I add. "Definitely. I think Josie likes her too. It'd explain the staring" she replies. I think for a moment, then say "I think Hope's in deeper than Josie is. Because she continued to stare for, like, 10 more seconds after Josie looked away. Also, she looked a little hurt when she did look away". Kaylee nods, agreeing with me. There was a knock on the door, which make us turn our attention to it. "I just picked up dinner in case you guys were hungry" Caroline says.
"Thanks, mom" Kayles replies. Caroline gives us a smile, then leaves. I stand, then say "I'm gonna go get some. Do you want me to bring you some too?". "Uh, yea" she answers. "Alright, I'll be back" I say, leaving.
I don't know if you guys seen Kaylee's post on Instagram about the magazine, but I bought it. Honestly, I think it's the best purchase I've made, ever. Anyways, I'm gonna post again later today, probably at night
