CHAPTER 3

'''Sophie quickly pulled away from Keefe and turned around to find Fitz standing there His hands were in fists, though one was holding a small wooden box with Sophie inscribed in it with gold. Sophie sucked in a breath. Was Fitz really going to ask her to be in a relationship with him again? '''

'''“Hey Fitzy! Didn’t know you were gonna stop by today!” Keefe said nervously, to break the silence.'''

'''“I heard you were awake, and went back home, so I thought I’d stop by, then go ask Sophie something, but I don’t need to do that any more.” Fitz replied angrily. He wasn’t even looking at Keefe. His gaze was fixed on Sophie, shooting daggers at her. '''

“Fitz, I’m sorry, but..” Sophie started but was immediately cut off.

'''“But you like Keefe more? Seriously Sophie? After all you did to tell me how you like me, and all the things I did for you, you think it’s better to go off with him?”'''

'''“Fitz, please don’t be mad.” Sophie pleaded. “I can explain.”'''

'''“Sure you can. I mean what do you even see in him? He’s just a dude who’s messed up. Just like his family. HE’S NOTHING! On the other hand, I’M A VACKER. I-” '''

'''“That’s the thing Fitz. You’re perfect. Or Wonderboy, as Dex used to call you. I feel like I can’t be myself sometimes around you. But around Keefe, it’s totally different. HE doesn’t care about who I am, what is happening, or how embarrassing I am. I can be myself comfortably around him. And he is NOT MESSED UP!”'''

'''Fitz snorted. “So, you’re nervous around me. Big deal. Great excuse, Sophie? So all the times you said you trusted me was just a lie?”'''

'''“I do trust you Fitz. It’s just that I don’t think me and you are meant to be.”'''

'''Hurt filled Fitz’s eyes. Before he could say anything, Grizel interrupted.'''

“Hey Sophie, quick question, where’s Sandor?”

'''Sophie completely forgot. “Oh, I accidentally ditched him.”'''

“Oh, you sure are great at doing that.” Fitz muttered.

'''“Okay, how about we calmed things down here a bit?” Keefe said, fanning the air. “I’m feeling some intense emotions here, and it doesn’t feel very good.”'''

'''“What can you say? You’re just happy that Sophie chose you.” Fitz countered.'''

“Jealous much, Fitzy?”

“Oh, just trying to prove that you don’t deserve her.”

'''“CAN YOU TWO STOP?” Sophie yelled, getting annoyed at both of them. “You two are just…. Can you stop being jerks?” Keefe looked guilty, but Fitz just turned more angrier. “You two are acting like your five year olds!”'''

“Oh, so sorry for being mad at you for the stupid decisions you make!” Fitz replied sarcastically.

'''“You know what. I’M DONE WITH BOTH OF YOU!” Sophie yelled. Red rage filled her vision. Anger filled inside her. Fury filled her. She felt someone pull her gloves off, and suddenly cool, green breezes filled her. Her breathing slowed and she calmed down.'''

'''“Sophie, it’s okay. Calm down.” Keefe whispered.'''

'''“Yeah, I know.” Sophie softly said, and then looked up. “I’m not dating any of you. For now. Just leave me alone. Both of you.” They both nodded, Keefe looking apologetic and Fitz looking sad and hurt. “I’m sorry” she whispered.'''

'''She grabbed her home crystal, and leaped away. Before the light whisked away, she heard both argue.'''

“Sophie’s mine.”

“No, she’s mine.”

“Oh, it’s on!”
