.......................................................................... Fitz ................................................................

"Stupid best friend," Fitz grumbled, kicking the wall.

"Why does he have to be such a..." Fitz bit his lip to keep from finishing the word. Keefe knew he liked Sophie. So why couldn't he let him have Sophie to himself? They were perfect... The Golden Boy and the Moonlark. Unstoppable. And she was pretty, too. But noooooo. And now Keefe had to be mad at Sophie, and now Sophie was mad at Fitz, and Fitz was mad at Keefe.

Why couldn't he just stay out of the way sometimes?

"Stay out of the WAY?" Biana asked, popping her head through the door of his room.

He had said it out loud. Shoot.

"STAY OUT OF THE WAY?" Biana shouted again, before inhaling and dragging her brother to sit down. "FITZ. What. The. Heck. YOU KNOW HE LIKES SOPHIE TOO!"

"He does?" Fitz asked, then groaned. "Ugh. That'll only make it harder." In his mind, he added another word to the list of things that described Keefe- Competition.

"HOW ARE YOU SO OBLIVIOUS?" Biana yelled, getting up in his face. "YOU ARE AN ARROGANT, SELFISH JERK, AND I BET SOPHIE THINKS THAT'S TRUE, TOO!"

"I am not arrogant or selfish!" Fitz snapped.

"Are too!" Biana countered. "You only want Sophie to yourself, but don't stop to think about all the things your BEST FRIEND has currently been through! You say you're not arrogant, but you only like Sophie because she's powerful, pretty, and smart! Your bond formed over your looks and her power! So GET OVER IT! And just KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT FOR ONCE!" Biana spat at his feet and got up, storming out and slamming the door so hard. "DAD! WE NEED TO TALK!"

"I am not arrogant. I am not selfish," Fitz grumbled.

But the more he said it...

The more right it seemed.
