hope won’t lie and say that she didn’t have preconceived notions about jackson’s friends, wolff included. that he was a player or just a pretty face but the more she hung out with him, she realized how wrong she was. he was kind, smart and seemed to be a lot more down to earth than her brother was. jackson would probably be annoyed that one of his friends was getting close to his sister like that but jackson was now in london and couldn’t control anything, even if he wanted to. hope was use to living in her brother’s shadow. he was the mega popular one. charming, flaunting his parents money and the likes. where hope had kept her head in books and hacked into things. "i’ll take your word for it. you know them better than i do.” she chuckled before blushing at his next words. “i just don’t want to cause problems for you. they’re your friends. they mean something to you and i – well, i just don’t want you to feel weird if they don’t like me, you know. i’m not one of those girls who’d want you to ditch your friends because of me.” she admits to him, before following him into the kitchen. the counter littered with all types of alochol. the keg was in the backyard probably, knowing someone might do a keg stand and who wanted to clean up that mess? “mhm, not yet but we’ve still got time.” she teased back, grabbing a plastic cup and looking at the selection, landing on vodka and a soda.

Wolff knew his looks made people have a person perspective on him. Many people thought because he looked a certain way, that he would act a certain way, but they were wrong. Wolff was a pretty chilled out person. He liked being social and partying, but he wasn’t someone who went out of his way to ruin people’s moods. “Even if they didn’t end up liking you, doesn’t mean it’ll sway me to change my mind about you. I know you, don’t I? I’m the one whose got close with you. I can have my own people I want in my life.” Wolff brought his large hand up to Hope’s cheek gently, rubbing the pad of his thumb gently against her cheekbone. “Tonight’s about us having a good time. Me and you, got it?” He grinned, leaning his forehead against hers softly as he gave them the most playful of smiles before looking at the drinks selection. “So what are you after? Shots? or you a kind of wine type of girl?” He asked. He found two red solo cups for them to drink out of. He made sure they were clean and unused before grabbing his favourite beverage. He poured himself a beer, going for his favourite drink.

it wasn’t like jackson hadn’t dragged her around this group before. before they had been a bit more open, friendly but now? now that it was wolff bringing her around, it was like something had shifted. was there something she didn’t know? did they only tolerate her because of her brother? these questions invaded her mind more often than not these days. maybe she should just let it go. it’s not like she needed those others to be her friend. she had her own friends. she liked the time she spent with wolff, even with their clothes on. she could talk to him for hours, but also sit in his presence in silence. it helped that he was also devilishly handsome. "i guess you’re right. it’ll probably be easier to tackle them one on one than as a whole unit. not going to lie, they’re a bit terrifying.” she chuckled, interlacing their fingers when he takes her hand. she chews at the inside of her cheek for a moment. they shouldn’t matter but for some reason they do. i mean, would he pick her if his friends didn’t like her? would she be tossed away because of the clashing behavior? or would he still choose her? she sighed. “you’re right, i’m just being stupid.” she waves her hand. “i’ll try my best to forget about it. we’re suppose to be having fun, right?”

There was something that Wolff had grown to like in Hope. He thought she was really sweet. If she knew he started the whole thing off as a dare he didn’t know if that would damage their current relationship with one another.  The two of them could actually lave a laugh with one another, or enjoy each other’s presence even when there wasn’t a lot going on around them. Wolff didn’t know if Jackson would appreciate Wolff seeking out his sister, but that was the last of Wolff’s worries. He was probably the person who got along the least with Jackson only because of their interests - so he couldn’t see a big thing being made out of his all. “In the group all they want to do is impress one another, it’s easier one on one, I promise you.” The blonde looked at the brunette and shook his head as she said she was being stupid. “You aren’t being stupid. Your overthinking. It’s sweet how much you care,” he confessed. He lead her to the drinks hoping it would help her feel more settled around everyone. “I’m going to make sure we’re going to have fun tonight. I’d never let you down before, right?” He grinned cheekily.
