Lucien whistled watching Josie, walk towards him, a smile coming to his face as Josie looked around for her father before she bumped into Lucien who let out a chuckle, catching as she almost fell to the ground.
Josie: Sorry for bumping into you... I wasn't watching---
She cut herself off when she looked up to see Lucien standing in front of her.
Lucien: Hi, Jo-Jo...
Josie: Lucien? Is that really you or am I hallucinating?
Lucien: Nope, it's really me, Jo. I'm back from the dead...
She giggled and pulled him into a bear hug.
Lucien: So, what's got you all distracted?
She pulled away from the hug and looked down to the ground before looking up to him. opening her mouth before closing it and shook her head.
Josie: It's nothing, I just need to find my dad... I'll see you, later?
He nodded and watched her walk off.
Lucien: Seems everything's still the same here....
He shrugged his shoulders and whistled a tune, meanwhile in Alaric's office, MG choked Landon out after his compulsion attempt was unsuccessful and carried the boy out of the room while Alaric turned to look at Hope, who seemed tense.
Alaric: Are you going to tell me what happened between you and Lucien?
She shook her and Alaric sighed before himself a class of bourbon and downed it before pouring another.
Alaric: Kids these days... all about the drama
| - | Party at the Old mill | - |
Lucien walked through the woods with Josie, red solo cup in hand, filled with rabbit blood.
Lucien: So, are you gonna tell me what's wrong?
Josie looked up from the ground and stopped turned to Lucien and looked into his eyes.
Josie: You're going to think I'm being overdramatic...
He chuckled and placed his hand on her shoulder, and she looked at his face, seeing that soft smile playing on his lips.
Lucien: Why would I ever think that? We've known each other since we were kids.
Josie nodded and took a deep breath before exhaling.
Josie: It's just every boy goes after Lizzie and every time she boasts about it in front of me like I don't care...
Lucien sighed seeing her tear up on the verge of crying and pulled her into a hug.
Lucien: If those boys go after your sister, it's their loss, Jo... not yours, you're beautiful, smart and kind...
Josie cracked a small smile and Lucien chuckled.
Lucien: There's that smile...
He looked into her and for a moment, he could've sworn he saw her eye flicker for a moment. Josie looked up to him smiling softly before he cupped her cheek and began leaning towards her, and captured her lips in a slow but heated kiss.
Hope in her wolf form sat watching them from a distance hidden in the shadows before she turned around and started walking away before, she came across Landon who was heading for the back gate and started chasing after him letting her wolf side take over before she realised what she was doing and right as she leaped into the air she transformed back in midair and landed on Landon grabbing his jacket putting it on before he could see her naked.
Hope: What the hell are you doing out? You know I could've killed you, right?" Landon who was shocked to hear hope's voice looked up and saw her standing over him and thought ' cool '.
| - | Library | - |
Landon can be seen looking around the library and he ends up stumbling upon a knife in a case he started reaching for it but stopped
Hope: Don't touch that it's dangerous...
He turned around to see Hope walking down the stairs with his jacket in her but what caught his eyes was that she was wearing another jacket that looked worn out and a bit too big for her size.
Landon: do you know what it does
he managed to get the question out while still in his trance "
Hope: No but that's what makes it dangerous here you go
She replied to him while handing over his jacket and Landon sighed.
Landon: thanks, so you're a werewolf...
Landon exclaimed causing hope to laugh the only person to do that was Luci
Hope: Yeah, but I'm more than that...
this caught Landon's attention and looked to her curious.
Landon: What do you mean by that?
Hope walked around him and went to the bookcase grabbing a specific book that held a connection to her and gave it to him
Landon: The great evil Klaus Mikaelson Landon read out loud
Hope: That was my dad he was an original vampire to be specific the original hybrid " Landon Heard how she said was
Landon: Was?
Hope turned to look at him, sadness in her eyes.
Hope: Turns out immortals can die too...
Landon looked at her, with a pitiful look and before he could say anything else Hope cleared her throat.
Hope: Anyways, my mom was a hybrid too and my grandmother was the original witch...
Landon: There's that was again....
Hope: Turns out people that I love have a tendency of dying on me, anyways with all of that combined, it results in me being a---
Landon: Unicorn.
Hope giggled looking towards Landon who had a goofy smile on his face looking towards her.
Hope: No... it resulted in me being a Tri-brid. Just like Lucien except he's from me...
He looked confused and began to wonder what was different between the two of them, Hope sensing his confusion decided to clear it up for him,
Hope: Instead of being part witch, he's part hellhound....
Landon: As in... Cerberus, the three headed guard dog of the underworld? That type of Hellhound?
She giggled and shook her head, closing the book.
Hope: If you're asking if he can transform into a three headed dog the size of horse, then no. But he can transform into wolf the size of a horse.
Landon: How is that any better?
She walked back to the shelf and placed the book back and started walking out of the librabry, Landon following after.

Landon let out a sigh looking around the cell and turned to Hope.
Landon: So, when the vervain leaves my system... what happens then?
Hope looked at him a look of sadness in her eyes.
Hope: We're going to make you forget everything that you saw today.
She watched him as he thought about something before he started walking towards her.
Landon: If I'm going to forget everything tomorrow...
She opened her mouth to speak before her eyes went wide in surprise as he leaned down and captured her lips in a kiss. Meanwhile Lucien stood by the door watching the two kiss before he turned around and walked out.
