Sebastian has made his decision to join the school once again. Seeing that the only person who remembered him was Hope, he had gone to talk to her about his decision and they both agreed it was what's best. Hope could see how much he cared about Lizzie, but she could also see how happy Lizzie was with Xander. Hope and Sebastian went to talk to Alaric about enrolling him at the school, Sebastian knew Alaric wasn't a fan of him but he didn't know who he was so maybe he had a chance to stay at the school.

"Do you think he'll let me stay?" Sebastian asked Hope

"Honestly I don't know. Given that he wasn't your biggest fan last time," Hope said as she knocked on Alaric's office door.

"Come in," he said from the other side. Hope opened the door and Sebastian and her went in.

went in.

"Alaric I want to introduce you to Sebastian, he is a vampire and I wanted to ask if you could enroll him," Hope said hopefully

"Hope you know we don't just enroll people, without knowing anything about them," Alaric said

"I know but I thought you might make an exception. It's a long story, but you have to trust me on this one. We can trust him, I trust him, so trust me when I tell you that he won't hurt anyone," Hope said, Alaric was hesitant to agree enrolling Sebastian into the school but he trusted her.

"Fine, but you have to tell me what's going on," Alaric said

"I will but not right now," Hope said

"Okay, I will start the paperwork. Hope, can you step outside while I ask Sebastian some questions? After you can give him a tour," Alaric said, Hope left his office but before she did she gave Sebastian a look and he took a seat in front of Alaric. After about 20 minutes Sebastian came out of Alaric's office.

"So how'd it go?" Hope asked

"Well, he does not seem to hate me which I guess is progress from last time. He does seem caution which did not come as much of a surprise," Sebastian said

"Seeing as you are now officially enrolled now, I guess I have to give you the official tour," Hope said giving him a blank expression

"Don't sound too excited Hope Mikaelson," Sebastian said giving her a look which caused Hope to let out a small laugh

"So, how is the whole Lizzie situation?" Hope asked as they walked through the hallways

"Well, we have not officially met, I guess. I get to start over with her, which is great but part of me wished for her to have those memories," Sebastian said

"So you want her to remember everything?" she asked raising her brow

"If it was up to me I wish for her to remember only the great memories we shared. But when she remembers she'll remember everything," he said avoiding her eyes

"Well IF she remembers. Lizzie's happy, I haven't seen her this happy in a while. When she was with you I could see she was happy no matter how hard she tried to cover it up," Hope said

"What exactly are you saying?" he asked furrowing his brows

"I'm saying that in the end, she's going to be the one suffering. She loves you both, even if she doesn't remember you right now but when she does all her feelings will come back. This is going to be harder for her," she said

"Do you think I should let her go?" he wondered, he knew he loved her more than anything but if she was truly happy then he didn't want to get in the way of that.

"I think that you have to be sure this is what you want. And that you just don't want to be with her because she's with someone else," Hope said

"I love her, from the moment I met her I was starting to fall in love with her. She is the reason why I came back," Sebastian said he knew that she was with someone else and he would respect her decision if she didn't choose him but she is worth fighting for.

"Well then fight for her if you truly love her," she said, giving him a smile, but then she saw Lizzie making her way over to them. "Oh god, uh maybe we should go this way," she said

"Why?" He said confused

"Hope I've been looking for you everywhere," Lizzie said as she approached them, but then noticed Sebastian standing next to Hope.

"Who is this?" Lizzie asked intrigued

"Sebastian," he introduced himself

"I'm Lizzie," she smiled at him

"Good to meet you Elizabeth," Sebastian said repeating what he said when they met at the old mill the first time. Hope just stood there sensing the tension between them.

"Lizzie, you said you were looking for me," Hope said breaking Lizzies gaze from Sebastian

"Oh yea I was wondering if you could cover for me tonight," Lizzie asked

"What are you doing tonight?" Hope wondered

"I'm going into town with Xander and you know my dad, he doesn't allow us to go into town," Lizzie said, before she could answer Hope looked at Sebastian and she saw pain across his face.

"Yea I'll cover for you, don't worry," Hope said forcing a smile

"Thank, I have to go meet Xander. It was nice to meet you Sebastian," Lizzie said smiling

"You too Elizabeth," Sebastian smiles at her, looking at her as she walks away from him.

"Well that was awkward," Hope said, earning a look from Sebastian.

"Are you okay?" She asked

"Why wouldn't I be, the woman I love does not remember me, she is happy with someone else, I'm just fine," Sebastian said raising his voice, "Sorry, I did not mean to raise my voice," he apologized

"It's fine. Look, do you want to go train with me later? I need someone who won't get hurt easily and it'll let you get all your anger out," Hope said, trying to cheer him up.

"I accept your offer, thank you," he said, he was grateful for Hope. She was his friend, the only one he had.

"Great, meet me at the gym tonight. I have to go talk to Landon," she said leaving Sebastian to go find Landon. Sebastian went to his room, he needed to be alone for a while he just needed to think.

After leaving Hope and Sebastian, Lizzie couldn't stop thinking about him. There was something about Sebastian something, familiar. She didn't know how to explain it. She was drawn to him, it was a strange feeling. There was just something about him.
