The Plan

Sophie and Fitz whirled around to see Dex miming himself throwing up. They seperated quickly and looked at each other awkwardly.

Dex stopped, "Uhhh, ok. I was just joking. You guys are boyfriend and girlfriend after all." he muttered quietly. "even if it was really weird."

Sophie looked at Fitz. "Actually we...broke up. It's ok though."

"And things just got a whole lot weirder. Okay I can see why that was awkward now. So you guys really are..."

Fitz smiled, "Yeah."

Dex looked at both of them as if they were playing a prank. "Ok, well I guess it's time to change the subject. Sooo why did you guys want to come here."

"I'll explain inside." Sophie replied, shivering. "It's too cold to talk out here."



Sophie sat crisscross on a very soft pilow beside a roaring fire. Fitz and Dex sat on identical ones across from her. She kinda wished she could just stay there forever. It reminded her of Christmas.

Dex wrung his hands anxiously, "Okay make this quick I'm working on stuff for Tinker, and my parents don't know you guys are here."

Sophie wanted to ask why, but she decided against it. "OK this is gonna sound a little ridiculous but I need you to make me an enhancer. I haven't been able to reach Tam, and I think if I..."

Dex interrupted laughing. "You are right this is ridiculous."

Fitz glared at him and raised his fist.

"Wait, just hear me out. First off that's probably impossible and if it isn't I don't really have time to do it. Second you are making this waaay harder than it is."

"What do you mean." Sophie asked.

Dex shook his head as if she was the most oblivious person in the world. Which was probably true.

"All you need to do is enhance Fitz."

Sophie stared at him, "Okay, now I see why you laughed."

Fitz chuckled beside her, "You do tend to overthink things."

Sophie glared at him. "I suppose we should do it now then. Just to see if it works before we make a plan to rescue Tam."

Ftiz skooted his pilow closer to her and held out his hand, "Ready when you are."

Sophie breathed in and pulled off her glove. For Tam, for Keefe she thought and put her hand in his.

"I don't think I'll ever get used to that." Fitz said as he was enhanced.

He squeezed her hand, " Okay here goes nothing."
