The One With All the Sokeefe.

Chapter Fifteen: Sophie

(a/n I hit 500 views!! Thank you guys so so so so so so so so much 😁👍❤ Now, for some real awkward conversations.)

"Linh?" I asked, my mouth falling open. Biana's face turned beet red, and Dex looked ashamed. 

"You're Tam's sister, right?" Keefe said, visiblyly trying to figure out why we all looked so shocked. Linh nodded her head, shaking her hair out so no one could see her face. Just as I was about to get some answers, we all heard footsteps. Biana yanked Keefe into the closet by his shirt, and Linh grabbed my hand. The footsteps got louder, and Keefe slammed the door. 

"Heeeeyyyyyy Tam." Dex muffled voice said, emphasizing the word Tam. Biana's eyes widened, and snapped onto Linh, who looked like she was doing her best not to cry. One tear slipped through, and Biana wiped it away with her pinky. It was such a sweet moment, I almost forgot about how their relationship was so screwed up. Kind of like mine with Keefe. 

"Hey. Have you seen Biana? Or Linh and  Wylie?" The closet was very small, so when Tam said Biana's name, I could feel her entire body stiffen. I could also feel every movement Keefe made, and how we were squished up against each other. Hey. I transmitted, hoping he wouldn't freak out to badly. Instead, he frantically looked around the room as if someone was stabbing him again and again, and couldn't find out who. It's Sophie!  That calmed him down, but his eyes were still full of panic. Don't worry, this is normal for me. Tam and Biana were going out, and that's why everyone is freaking out. Realization dawned on Keefe's face, and he looked like he understood, so I started to focus on Tam and Dex's conversation. 

"I just worry about her sometimes. I mean, Linh and Wylie. I just feel that they're too serious." Dex lied, and Linh stuck her tongue out. 

"You really don't need to worry about Linh." Tam said coldly. 

"Yeah, I probably shouldn't. Worry, that is. But I mean, I'm a worrier. Like I'm worried about Keefe and Sophie. But I mean, I really hope they get back together." Dex rambled. I could feel my cheeks flush. I hadn't really gotten to that part yet. I'll explain later. I transmitted, not meeting his eyes. 

"I don't really care that much about the relationship stuff." Tam snapped. "Just... let me know if you see them." Before Dex could reply, I assume that Tam walked away, because of what Dex said. Or, coughed. 

"COUGH don't come COUGH out yet." After a moment of silence, Dex opened the door. We spilled out like we were sardines in a can, and I made sure to get away from Keefe. For a second, everyone just stood there, Linh and Biana as red as beets. 

"So..." I began 

"I'm gay!" Lihn blurted out. "And I'm in love with Biana." My gaze shifted to Biana, who was smiling from ear to ear.

"Really? Love?" Biana asked, looking as if she was afraid of the answer. Blushing, Lihn nodded, not meeting Biana's eyes. 

"I love you too." Biana said, and the two of them moved closer, kissing passionately. Their hands were intertwined, faces beaming, and they really needed to get a room. Or at least a closet. Dex cleared his throat, trying to get their attention. Both red in the cheeks, they pulled away from each other. 

"What about Tam?" Keefe asked, but it was more like a punch to the gut. 

"We... haven't told him yet." Lihn said, looking ashamed. 

"But we were going to today." Biana cherped. "Well... I was going to break up with him today. We weren't going to tell him... about... us today." 

"I'm super happy for you, but Tam needs to know. It's not fair to string him along like this. Keefe and I will keep Linh company while you do it, and maybe tell Keefe more about his past." I said, trying to take charge of the situation. 

"How far are you?" Lihn asked. 

"We were fighting on that snowy mountain, and had thought we had found Keefe's father."

"THouGhT?" Dex exclaimed. "Soph, you haven't told him yet?" 

"YOU try telling him!" 

"I'd rather break up with Tam." Dex scoffed.

 Biana hit him in the shoulder. "Watch it."

"TELL ME WHAT." Keefe roared. Everyone avoided her eyes, until I couldn't stand it anymore. 

"Keefe." I began slowly, because I just wanted him to have a little time left before he realized both of his parents were monsters. "Your dad wasn't working with the Neverseen." His face lit up, but I couldn't let him think that this was good news. "Your mom was."
