Reputation - Henelope.

Penélope Park PoV.

A few long days away from Hope like the devil on the cross, I was starting to get a little more stressed, maybe longing for the warmest teasing. Hope had respected that I hated her and wanted to get away.

A sudden escape to the forest to smoke made me realize that there was no point in denying things that seemed to be stamped on my forehead so much. I ran and ran from it, too guilty, and thinking it was in my head. Hope could still be perfectly arming me.

My hands were sweating, disappearing like this made Taylor and Jade look around for me, since that type of note I sent didn't work well with people who were in public.

- Apologize now for my Jaque ... - The redhead entered the broom closet that I agreed with her on that note. Punctually. The door was closed behind her, giving me the space I needed to shut her up with a rather naive kiss.

I felt a little bit of nostalgia for the redhead's mouth.

- What do you think you're doing? - Hope pushes me.

- Kissing you.

- Find a psychologist, Penélope. I'm not going to put up with your bipolarities. In a second you say you hate me and then kiss me? Fuck you. - Hope tries to leave, but I hold the door with my hand.

- Wait ... I ... I think I missed you a little ... - I spoke realizing again the great limitation I have in saying something I feel.

- And why are you acting like an idiot? - Hope says turning the spoiled Mikaelson face. The witch knew that in minutes I could see that I was making a terrible mistake and push her away.

- Why am I one? - I asked ironically, putting Hope against the wall, it was easy since we were in a tiny room. - Can we forget that now? - I pull the hair out of Hope's neck.

- I don't want casual sex. - She makes it clear, still tantrum. - Not even that little game.

- That's one of the problems, I don't know if I want it to be just that. I'm confused and it's killing me, but right now, I just want to enjoy the next ten minutes that I've been kissing you.

Hope still had a face. It was ridiculous how I pushed it away and suddenly I went after it myself.

- I believe that I'm not the subtle type too, I wanted to end our feud and honestly, I think I'm forcing it. - Hope starts to explain. - You can't kiss around, hidden, with scheduled times. I have problems besides you. Pen, think about what you want, and then talk to me.

The redhead kisses me on the cheek before leaving the closet, I would laugh at that if I weren't so frustrated. It was difficult to think just like me and not like Pierce-Park.

It is obvious that passions do not happen overnight, especially when you have strong feelings like mine that came before this mess, but as the days passed, I wanted her company, pulling me out of that comfort zone, me making something real, even if the few were born.

I didn't want to leave, but I didn't want to stop either.

- What went wrong? - Jade asks when I sit down.

- I think I got dumped. - I spoke without completely believing.

- And whose life are we going to screw up? - Taylor asks a little mean.

- Do you think I don't know how to take no? - I asked with a frown.

- Actually, I think. Josie Saltzman. - Taylor remembered, giving Jade a nudge.

- This is with Jade now, don't get me into this anymore, I'm in another one. - I said think. When I realized I tried to change the subject. - In fact, you owe me an apology.

I knew I had given Jade an ultimatum.

- No, I shouldn't. - Jade says. Death must have been shocked by his audacity. I slowly put my hand on top of my wand that rested on the table.

- What did you say?

- Are you threatening your friend? Seriously? What a beautiful friendship we have.

- As far as I know friends don't have ex-friends. If you cheated on me for Josie, you can do worse, maybe with Nolan Bolt, from Ravenclaw, who would love to have my head as an ornament in the room, or Kalin Willies at the end of that table, maybe Linda Peter, on the other end, I have great enemies , Jade.

Taylor was probably lost. She was as much a friend as she was of Jade, who had screwed up that night. My life started to fall after that night.

- I can sell your secrets to Mikaelson, forgot about it, they are like, super close to the twins. - Jade speaks sarcastically. His guard is lowered when he realizes that I will follow the wand itself, drawing some attention to us by the tension of the conversation.

- Jade! - Taylor rebukes the sin said by the other blonde.

- Don't come with Jade for me, Taylor. You know what Penélope is doing, playing the superior.

- I'm the superior, Jade. I am acting as such, but if you see that everyone is looking and think it is because of you, delude yourself as much as you want. - I said convinced. There were witches by my side everywhere, I avoided look at them, without calling so much attention that it would not be necessary to take extreme measures.

- You need to treat yourself. - Jade says with some anger.

- It is not the first time I hear this today.

- Maybe you could hear if you weren't so far away with your ego. If you saw Josie and I should have known we were having fun, am I to blame that everyone here is your ex? Fuck Penelope, I stayed with her because I liked her, as simple as that, not everyone is trying to finish you.

Bad tongues could say that I made all the wrong choices, or that I sabotaged myself in any situation. Paranoia did it all. The feeling of chase. I don't trust anyone and nobody trusts me.

I leaned forward, giving the false hope that I would end the fight logically and rationally. I would do it. For me.

- I do not trust you anymore. - I whispered. Other witches tried to listen, the nearest ones started to comment as soon as the words left my mouth. I got up without wanting an answer. All of that was due to paranoia, both about issues of trust and issues of discovering my secrets.

Hope was the last face I managed to look at before I left, I hadn't mentioned her on the short list of enemies, which made me wonder how they might find that strange and feel the move to cover it as an argument. The redhead looked very disappointed in my actions. I turned my face away. I don't know if I wanted to, but I did.

(...)

- One week Penelope, a week-long drug that you haven't looked at in the face of one of your best friends for six years because of nobody. - Taylor complained.

- She betrayed my confidence, what will they think if I forgive that? - I asked. - People watch me, seeing a weakness they attack.

- THIS IS NOT A WAR AREA, PENNY. ITS A SCHOOL. A SCHOOL DRUG. - Taylor explodes. It wasn't suddenly, she had already shown many signs of unhappiness about my actions.

- For someone like me, everywhere is a war zone. Do you think I'm happy with that, Tay? You really think that I didn't want to be able to date anyone I want, or to spend a week without getting into trouble with an enemy who hates me because of one word, ONE SURNAME ... it was enough to ruin me. - I exploded in the same proportion, saying much more than I should. Exposing myself to ridicule, Taylor was extremely trustworthy, but it was too intimate.

- Fuck. - Taylor answers. Sitting on the bed next to me. We were a little silent until it broke.

- I'm your friend, and so is Jade, we're both here in case these shit think they can do something. You can act like a normal girl if you want, to start, you have to apologize to your friend who is only dating someone, that's all.

- If they are stronger?

- No way, we finished them all, silenced the Mikaelson, somehow, do you think anyone would mess with us now? - Taylor encourages me more and more.

It was my reputation that was at risk there, it was something I couldn't risk for anything or anyone. I needed something to do, especially after the week of dropping my loving poison against her.

I threw an alohomora at your door, invading the dormitory, your roommate was a girl who seemed scared by my presence.

- Go. - I did. Giving her space to leave. Sitting on Jade's bed to wait for her.

While the blonde did not appear, my thoughts went to a redhead who was still waiting for an answer, one that I already had, even if complicated. The week had been busy, with the fight between me and Jade the rumors got high and high, I had no control over them like I had my disciples, after all everyone had seen. Hope stayed in the back of my mind, it was better this way. And I was about to go after her and put an end to every game.

- You can't talk like my colleague of four, Penelope. - Jade entered the room.

- Don't tell me what I can or can't do. You know I do what I want to do. - I smiled convinced. The blonde was wearing a towel wrapped around her body. - I've been thinking, can we solve all this, maybe a threesome?

- Unbelievable. - Jade complained. - I'm going out with her, I wouldn't make exceptions, much less for you.

- Don't you think ... we had fun? - I woke up. It was as if Jade knew exactly where it was going.

- Don't start with that. - He did. I walked over to her making the turn, to start making her walk towards the bed itself. Penelope style of making peace.

- Open wound? - I teased. - I know baby. I came to think that I had done revenge, because I was so cold.

- I got over. - Lied. I smiled as I fussed with his hair, brushing the wet strands away from his face and neck.

- Seriously? - I asked ironically. - Are you telling me you wouldn't love to have a relapse?

- You're an asshole, that's what you are, you think you can stop being with me without giving me a an explanation, then be friends to dictate who I go out with or not? You fucking paranoid. - Jade says putting your anger out. All I wanted.

- Did it ever cross your mind that I might be jealous? - I provoked, making all her barriers start to fall.

- You are still an asshole.

- And you love it about me. I'm an asshole, I fought you that day, I was a bad girl, and I'm here to apologize. - I got closer to Jade. - You know how. - I said already touching our lips, painfully slow. Fuck, I had forgotten what Jade was like, instead of pulling away, she kissed me more willingly, my hands couldn't keep still.

Jade was already unbuttoning my dress shirt with so much need that I thought I was going to pull all the buttons at once, I released the towel from her body, dramatically increasing my lust. The blonde turns me around, using my move against me, throwing me hard on the bed, climbing on top of me.

I let her take off the rest of the clothes that hindered us before reversing our positions, holding her two arms over her head.

- I'm the one who has an apology to make here. - I said kissing her again. Jade seemed to be feeling quite comfortable by the naughty smile she gave. I kissed his neck, without worrying about the marks he would leave or not, letting go of his hands, Jade did not take long to change our positions again, I sat on the bed, holding tightly on his waist.

- Shut up. - Jade sent it. I took a deep breath, realizing that she was starting to move in my lap, slowly and slowly, she already knew exactly what was happening to me. I let her control the situation, all the while running my fingers over her body, squeezing, urging me to go faster and faster. I swore under my breath, feeling my sex scream. Even though I didn't like to speed things up, I moved my fingers down to her wet sex listening to the low moan leave, mixing with the faster breathing, I kissed her lips as slowly as she masturbated her clitoris. I lowered the kisses to her neck, feeling her hands in my hair, two fingers of mine were already coming down to her entrance, penetrating her slowly. In the beginning I did the movements myself, increasing the speed very quickly, letting myself be carried away for the moment, until I slowed down, torturing her body, making her seek more contact.

The view was perfect, Jade had her eyes tightly closed, her lower lips bitten as she sat on my dice, her body up and down steadily, occasionally hitting me in the face. I let it happen, also in that uncontrolled breath, feeling pleasure with the contact of your body in mine, with the situation itself.

Until it stops, throw the witch lying on the bed again with force, kissing her body, leaving bites, stronger marks, attacking her breasts, and continuing to tighten them even lowering down, kissing her belly, until she reaches her sex . Going even slower with my tongue, going every way I could, marking her thighs with my fingernail, going slow, and slow, until I started sucking hard, listening to moans that should disturb the other rooms. Penetrating my tongue deep, with faster and stronger, and deeper, feeling Jade's leg start to shake, which delivered the beginning of her orgasm.

It was more intense than I thought it was, the excuses, the sex, the orgasm, everything was definitely not even close to being in my control.

- You should go to your room now. - Jade says, surprising me a little.

- Did you use me?

- You did this to me, several times. - The blonde says a little unwillingly.

- Jade - I was on top witch. - Excuse me. I'm really sorry, for our summer, and for the week before. Today may be the good end point that we needed.

- Penélope Park and her habit of solving things with sex. - Jade complained, jokingly. I knew that what I needed was once to be able to really apologize to someone.

- I wouldn't complain if I were you. - I said smiling naughty.

The conversation did not extend much, Jade and I exchanged some kisses, without malice in them, just feeling each other. Of course, they led to a few more things later, for long hours, until the moment we just exchanged caresses and a brief conversation about what could be a courtship between her and Josie. It didn't matter that night. It didn't matter at any time. I shouldn't be the boss of my friends' love lives. Fuck it. It was a good ending, mainly because maybe there was still a spark. Jade was the smallest shell that night.
