Sophie Foster was all alone in her room, for once, staring at the massive piles of dress choices Edaline had picked out for the upcoming ball being held at Everglen. 

Sophie imagined at the fancy elves would be there, wearing dresses and suits, and dancing and laughing and drinking and eating.

She sighed, looking at different choices of dresses. Some were red, in fact, most of the dresses were red. Edaline had told Sophie that red looked best on her.

In Sophie's mind, she just wanted to wear the best dress that she thought Fitz would like best on her. Scratch that-darn it! When would she ever get the courage to tell him her feeling for him?

" Look at all these dresses! Sophie, you are so lucky!" Biana twirled into the room. Sophie smiled. " Biana, you know if you need one you can have it, right?" 

Biana laughed. " Aaaaand that's why Sophie Foster's my best friend!" 

" Yo, Biana, you know Foster's been my best friend from the start, right?" Keefe walked in on cue, flashing a trademark smirk at Sophie. 

Sophie sighed. " Guys, please! You're ALL my best friends!"

Biana changed the subject by picking up a teal dress with short train. " Now THIS would look fantastic on you, Sophie!"

Sophie admired the dress. In fact, she hadn't gazed over it until now. The teal color stood out to her, just as Fitz's eyes did. She shook her head, wondering why she could be thinking about Fitz at a time like this.

" Sophie?" Edaline poked her head through the door. " Grady and I need to talk to you-right now."

Sophie shot an apologetic glance at her friends, then follow Edaline into the dining room. Edaline conjured up a scroll. 

" This is your match making scroll results.," She explained. 

" My WHAT?" Sophie asked, shocked.
