In that case I’m looking forward to our next sparring session, Deal,
Hope chuckled at that before she nodded her head in agreement with Raf. "In that case, I'm looking forward to it, too." She said in a light-hearted voice. For a little bit of time, everything felt normal again. It felt like nothing had changed at all, but Hope knows better. Nothing was the same anymore. Rafael was no longer just a wolf. He was a hybrid and he was the first one she's ever turned and probably the last, unless the situation requires it, of course.
I think we can get through anything together, You still have all of this to come, don’t you? I really don’t know what I’d do without all of you, I’ve never had friends like you before.
"I think so, too." Hope agreed with a quick nod of her head following, her smile still visible on her lips. Rafael's next words made her turn her head to look at him before her lips parted to let out a soft sigh. "Yeah." Hope replied before she pressed her lips together, her eyes focusing ahead of her again. "A part of me doesn't want to become a fully activated tribrid because it—" Hope trailed off as a small frown began developing on her features. "It scares me, Raf." Hope admitted, her voice a little too soft as she spoke. "But, I don't have to think about that for a while." Hope had no plans of activating her vampire side any time soon. Hope's lips stretched into a smile at Rafael's words. She would be more than happy to help him in any possible way. She loved the fact that they were friends. Rafael really did mean a lot to her.
It really doesn’t feel like this is real right now, I’ll have to tell Lan and Dr S but I know what the rumour mill is like. Even if I keep it to myself for now it won’t stay that way for long.
Hope's eyes drifted back to Rafael as she listened to him. She slowly nodded her head when he told her that he will have to tell Landon and Dr Saltzman. Landon was his brother and Dr Saltzman was always there for them, so she knew he would do everything he can to help Rafael, too. "I know..." Hope let out a soft sigh. "Either way, I'll support you, Raf. If there's anything that you need from me, I'll be more than happy to help." Hope said with a quick nod of her head.
Hope continued walking until they reached the school and once they were at the gates, she pushed in the numbers that opened the gate doors. With a loud buzz, the doors began opening. She continued walking toward the school with Rafael. "Okay, are you ready to head in, or do you need some time? You might actually need to be invited in. I can call out for either Jenna or Dr Satzman."

It felt good to be able to joke around with Hope after everything that had happened even if it was only for a little while. It helped distract him from what had happened and right now Raf knew that was what he needed more than anything. It was going to take him time to get his head around the fact that he was no longer a werewolf but a hybrid instead but thankfully he had Hope to help him and when his friends found out he knew that they would stand by him too. One thing he had learned about the people at the Salvatore School was that they didn't run when things became difficult, they stayed and helped where they could so he knew that he would need to learn how to start leaning on them more. He wasn't used to having people in his corner like this but he knew that he wanted to make the most of it while he could. There were times when it was easy to forget that Hope still had another side of herself that she had yet to activate but everything that had happened was enough to remind Raf of that. As Hope said that the thought of becoming a fully activated tribrid scared her, Raf reached over and gave her hand a gentle squeeze. "I can definitely understand that but I know you'll smash it. You're amazing with magic and you were a natural when you were getting your werewolf side under control. I know you will be able to handle that too, I think you're the only person who could." She was so much stronger than she realised and even though things hadn't been easy for her at first, eventually she ended up taking everything in her stride and he knew that this wouldn't be any different. Raf wasn't sure what would happen when they reached the school but it was comforting to know that Hope would be right there with him. He knew that he owed her, she had saved his life even if it meant that he'd had to become a hybrid to have another chance at life and he wasn't sure that he would ever be able to repay her for that. Keeping it to himself was tempting even if it was only for a little while but he had never been the kind of person who liked to try and run away from his problems so he knew that he needed to face this head on as well. "I know you will, thank you," he said sincerely. "This scares me but it's a lot easier knowing that you'll be there. When it's your turn I'll be there for you too." He had already helped Hope get used to being a werewolf and he knew that he would do the same for her when her vampire side activated if she gave him the chance too. As they reached the. school's gates, Hope's next words had Raf hesitating for a moment. "I forgot about that," he admitted before nodding as they continued heading in the direction of the school. "I'm as ready as I'll ever be so let's do this," he said, his voice sounding more confident than it had for a while. "I'm not going to hide what happened, this is who I am now and I'm going to have to get used to it so the people around me might as well do the same," he said resolutely as they reached the school.

I can definitely understand that but I know you'll smash it. You're amazing with magic and you were a natural when you were getting your werewolf side under control. I know you will be able to handle that too, I think you're the only person who could.
Hope's lips pressed together into a thin line as she listened to Rafael. Hope was worried about the future, she was worried about becoming a fully activated Tribrid. She was scared of losing herself. But Hope also knew that she won't go through it on her own, her family was going to be there for her, and so will her friends. "Thanks, Raf. I hope so." Hope said with a gentle smile tugging on her lips. Rafael definitely seemed to know how to ease down her worries.
I know you will, thank you, This scares me but it's a lot easier knowing that you'll be there. When it's your turn I'll be there for you too.
Hope nodded her head with a smile forming on her lips. "Of course." When Rafael admitted that it scares him, her expression turned into one of sympathy as she squeezed his arm in a reassuring manner. "Thank you, Raf. I know you will be." Hope's voice was soft as she spoke, her eyes relaxing on Rafael once again. "I know it's scary right now, but you've got this, okay? I have a lot of faith in you."
I forgot about that, I'm as ready as I'll ever be so let's do this, "I'm not going to hide what happened, this is who I am now and I'm going to have to get used to it so the people around me might as well do the same,
"Okay." Hope nodded her head when Rafael told her that he was ready. Or, well, ready as he'll ever be. Hope turned her attention to Rafael when he told her that he wasn't going to hide what happened to him and she could really tell just how brave he was. Hope's lips stretched to form a reassuring smile as she looked at him. The way she was looking at him truly showed the fact that she was actually very proud of him. "Exactly." Hope agreed with him. "If they care about you, they won't have a problem accepting you for who you really are." She knew that their friends will have no issue accepting Rafael for who he was, and she knew Landon won't, either. Hope stopped in front of the door once they had reached it and looked over at Rafael, giving him a reassuring nod before she reached into her pocket for her phone before she dialed Dr. Saltzman's number. She could head into his office and ask him to come with her, but she didn't want to leave Rafael's side. "Hey, Doctor Saltzman. Could you come to the front door? We need you to invite someone inside. We'll explain everything when we see you." Hope explained, her eyes moving to settle on Rafael as she gave him a reassuring smile before she ended the conversation with Alaric. "He'll be out in a minute." Hope confirmed with Rafael with a nod of her head following. Now, it was only a matter of waiting for Dr. Saltzman to come outside so they could explain what had happened and so that he could also invite Rafael inside.

Raf had grown up not knowing anything about the supernatural world but he was well and truly thrown into it when he triggered his curse. If he had known about it beforehand then he knew that he could have at least tried to stop himself from triggering it but then again if he hadn’t then he knew that he never would have found his place at the Salvatore School. That was something that he knew he wouldn’t give up for anything in the world given just how long he had spent moving around from one awful home to another but it was different for Hope. She knew about the supernatural world and had done since she was born, she also knew what would happen when she triggered each side of her but Raf wouldn’t be surprised if that didn’t make it much better. “It’s true. Just remember you’re not alone,” Raf assured her. He knew that Hope would be able to handle it just fine but he also wanted to make sure that she knew she would have people in her corner no matter what. As Hope said she knew that he would be there for her when it was her turn too, Raf nodded. “Josie will be as well and so will your family, you have a lot of people in your corner.” Hope was lucky in that respect and Raf knew that she would be just fine, in fact he was certain of it. “Thanks, that means a lot,” he admitted. “As long as I have people like you in my life then that’s all I need.” He knew that Hope wouldn’t let him lose control and he knew that Josie and his other friends wouldn’t either so he knew that he just needed to start believing in himself as much as Hope believed in him. Even though he could keep what had happened a secret for a while, Raf knew that it would only end up being that much worse when the truth finally came out so he knew that he didn’t want that to happen. Instead he wanted to be open and honest with those around him when they asked and he hoped that they would understand. “Exactly. If they have a problem with it then perhaps they aren’t worth worrying about,” he shrugged. Throughout his whole life he had always been different and that was still true now. He had learned to keep the people who really mattered to him as close as he could, though, and he knew that this was going to prove to him just who his true friends were. Raf couldn’t stop himself from tensing up as Hope called Dr S but he appreciated her staying with him more than she would ever know. “Alright,” he breathed as she said that Dr S would be there in a minute. Sure enough he soon appeared and Raf wasn’t surprised by the confusion following quickly by shock that crossed his face. “Raf, what happened?” Dr S asked and Raf rubbed the back of his neck nervously. “It turns out my name was on the hitlist that has been going around,” he explained, unable to quite meet Dr S’ gaze as he spoke. “Hope gave me some of her blood to help me heal when we were attacked and I died with her blood in my system when the guy found us again,” he continued, forcing himself to say the words out loud. As soon as he had Dr S stepped outside and before Raf knew it Dr S was hugging him and Raf hugged him back. “This doesn’t change anything. You’re still you and this is still your home, it always will be,” Dr S said as he released him and that was enough to have Raf letting out a shaky breath. “Come on in.”HOPE MIKAELSON
