Nick's pov

I was at the old mill with Jed. Drinking and talking with our friends. However, no matter who I was talking to or what I was doing. My mind couldn't help but thinking of Hope. Nope stop it Nick. I know what I need, more to drink.

So, I walked towards the beer can and filled my glass. Don't know why I did that, as I was a little buzzed.

As I was right with the mill a girl came to me ''hello there'', she said. ''ehm hello''. ''I couldn't but help seeing you were here alone''. ''oh, yeah just needed a refill''. ''I see'', she said while checking me out.

It was quiet for a bit then she came closer to me ''you wouldn't have a girlfriend would you? I mean I heard you and Lizzie broke up so''. I looked at her just giving her a little nod. She looked back at me raising her brows ''you didn't answer my question. Just a nod. What does that mean? That you are single or not?''. I didn't know what to answer so I just stood there. She pressed her body towards mine and looked into my eyes. She was about to kiss me when I backed away.

''look you seem like a sweet girl and all that, but it isn't fair. You are right me and Liz broke up, but I-I...'', then I got caught off by the girl. ''but what? You are single right and here I am. Literally pressing my body at you and you're still saying no to me? What? Are you with someone else or?''.

Before I could answer someone else came and talked. ''in fact, yes. He is kind of with me, and that is not you bimbo''. I looked behind surprised to see Hope was the one talking. Her eyes locked with mine, instant when I turned around.

Before I could say anything the girl beat me to it. ''Hope Mikaelson really? You could get someone be...''. I cut her off ''don't say anything about her. She is the top of the list, which I can't say the same to you''. The girl scoffed ''whatever. I'm out of here''. Then she went away, and I saw people were looking at me and Hope.

Lizze came up at me smiling. Giving me the letter that I wrote for Hope. I took it and she whispered in my ear ''now is a good time to give it to her'', then she walked back to the others.

I looked at the letter, then I took my gaze upon Hope. She was already looking at me, with a confused look. Which I guess was because she heard what Lizzie whispered to me.

The confused look went away a couple of seconds after. Then spoke to me ''can we talk?''. I answered her with ''yeah''.

I then walked over to her. She took my hand and dragged me a little more further into the woods, away from the party.
