Chapter 18- Sophie
Sophie POV:
I wake up with a jump. I wonder what the time is. I hope it's not too late, I promised to meet Keefe at two. Sure originally I said noon but he said I should sleep more. I love it how he cares. So. Much. Why didn't I realise my feelings earlier? I open my door and see Sandor waiting outside.
"Good morning." He says. Then I ask what time it is and he replies, "It's about one thirty."
"Really?" I say loudly and rushing back into my room. I do t know what to do now. There's only really one thing left to do. Hail Biana. I sprint to where my imparter is and say Biana Vacker loudly. She answers in a beat and says,
"Hey Soph what's up?"
"Look, Biana, I need your help but I need you to not get the wrong idea, okay."
"Yeah, yeah, what is it?" She asks obviously curious.
"I look a mess and i need help because..." I trail off. I think she already know though.
"Say no more. I'll come over and don't worry, we can talk as much as we want then. How long do you have?" She asks calmly and I really appreciate.
"Half an hour." I say quickly. I then hear something drop to the ground and she immediately hangs up. I don't know what to do now. Then Biana burst through my doors carrying three very big bags of things.
"How...?" I start to ask but she looks at me and says with a slightly crazy side,
"We don't have time. Quick sit down, I'll start with the hair." Then she pulls out a hairbrush from her bag and I do as she says.
. . .
After twenty minutes or so I'm dressed in a beautiful purple tunic and leggings that's a bit fancy for me, my hair in a waterfall braid and very natural light makeup. Biana did an excellent job and while she did it I told her what's happening (of course I left out a few parts like how I actually like like him) and she just squealed loudly and said she can't wait to hear what happens. I also promised I would tell her if anything happened but I assured her nothing would, I know Keefe doesn't like like that, sadly and she just laughed softly at that and I have no idea why. I walk out of the room with Biana at 1:50 and I say,
"Biana I do t know what I'd do without you, your such a good friend, is there anything I can do to repay you?" I ask and she replies,
"Just have a good time and please come to our sleepover in a few days."
"You know I wouldn't miss it for the world. I'll be there." I say and turn to the leapmaster, "Shores of Solace!" I shout and the light whisks me away.
Just to note that Sandor is with her when she leaps, it's just not mentioned. Poor Sandy.
. . .
I see the lovely beaches around me and smile. Then someone from behind tackles me, at first I thought it was an attack, but then I say beautiful ice-blue eyes and golden hair that I like so much.
"KEEFE!!!" I squealed and he laughs, letting me go and helping me up.
"Hey Foster, so yesterday you mentioned walking, I found this really nice trail, let's go." I smile and follow him as we walk towards a track. He takes my hand when we enter on the trail and it sends tingles up my arm. My heart stars beating heavily and he smirks. Shoot I forgot he can feel my emotions, especially when with physical contact. I try to pull my hand away, but I can't, both because I do t want to and because he is holding it quite hardly in a soft nice way.
"Foster, is there a reason why you don't want me to be holding your hand?" He doesn't say this in an accusing and hurt way, more of a Im-going-to-make-you-say-it-and-tease-you type of way.
"Because you can feel my emotions." I blurt out dumbly. Then his smirk just gets bigger.
"Foster, I can always feel your emotions, what have you got to hide?" He says in a joking way but my emotions say differently. I have to tell him. Right now. Or never. We turn a corner and as I open my mouth I trip pulling Keefe down with me and somehow tangling us both in a vine.
"Sorry!" I say as I go down. It takes me a moment to realise how close we are, his lips a few centimetres away from his, are legs and arms intertwined and our chest touching.
"Umm..." I say, once again dumbly, trying to look away so he can't see me blushing.
"Foster... look at me..." Keefe says suddenly serious, "Sophie..." oh no, he called me Sophie again, what if he's figured out that I like him and he's telling me he doesn't like me. It's such a beautiful place to get rejected too, the beautiful trees and nice sand and awesome flowers. A tear wells in my eyes and I look at him, when my eyes focus on him he tenses.
"Sophie, are you hurt? Foster? What's wrong?" He asks with a whole lot of concern in his voice.
"It's just... Keefe, I really—" then I hear the twins, Linh and Tam. Tam instantly turns Linh around without a thought and I realise what position were still in an how it looks...
Keefe POV:
"It's just... Keefe, I really—" her words came out like she was about to burst into tears, really what? What was she about to say? Is she okay? So many thoughts flow through my head but the big one that stuck is that she was going to reject me, she must have figured out I like her and... then I realise the twins are here... and Linhs facing the other way and Sophie's blushing like crazy. I look down again and realise how this looks.
"Uhh..." I say. Then Bangs Boy realises there's a vine, or at least I presume that's what he realised. "Little help?" I ask.
. . .
It took them about five minutes to get us untangled and they kept asking questions like 'how is this even possible' and other things the Tam asked,
"What would've happened if we didn't get here?" He said this smirking. MY smirk! I was about to answer then Ro jumped out and said,
"You know you could've waited like four minutes. I mean I really enjoyed Foster-Keefe. Though it was hard to watch while blocking an ogre." I started to lightly blush... of course I was one to forget my bodyguard was watching everything. I had just been so in the moment. It was still worth it though, I just wondered what's bad for Sophie.
"Umm... on a different note, do you want to head back now?" I ask and the Linh says,
"I'm so sorry we came uninvited, I though tam asked and he thought I." She's sweet, Linh. She's like a sister or just good friend. I should probably pay the twins more attention, I'm just always with... well Sophie.
"Linh, it's fine. Please come over more." I say then decided to add, "just give us a second." I say and Bangs Boy rolls his eyes and takes Linhs arm and pulls her towards the house. I take Sophie's hand and lead her away.
"Hey Foster," I say softly, I bend down slightly so I'm about her height and I can feel her shaky breathe against my face. I really want to just lean down and... but I'm worried about her so I can't get distracted. "Are you okay, what was wrong?" Sophie took a breath and said,
"Keefe, it's nothing. I'm fine. Don't worry about me. It's just something stupid." She looks away from me and she looks sad.
"Sophie I'm always worried about you." I say so seriously she looks back up at me, straight into my eyes and her breath catches...
To be continued...
