                                                                              Sophies POV

-At dinner-

"I'm so sad you guys are leaving tomorrow." Biana says from the other side of the table. "Yeah same." Pretty much everyone says quietly. 

"Well." Della begins. We all stare at her while she stares back. "I asked all of your parent was it ok if you stay for a few more nights since you'll be getting your matchmaking scrolls in a night or two. And all of your parents tought it was a wonderful idea!" Everyone erupted into cheers. Well everyone except Keefe. 

"Goodness that boy is depressing." I think to myself.

"Yes indeed he is." A crisp voice fills my head and makes me fall from my chair.

"Omg Sophie are you ok?!" Biana asks as I get up hot with embarrassment.  "Yeah I'm fine." I mumble staring at my food.

"Well that was quite the .... I'm not sure what to call it ,shows are usually scripted...." Fitz's voice fills my mind again.

"Not funny Vacker, not funny at all." I transmit.

"Don't call me that Foster." He says again.

"Only if you never call me Foster again, that's for Keefe." I transmit dryly.

"Geez dude. Chill out." He transmits. I realize he's waiting for an answer but I don't give it to him. Which clearly makes him feel disappointed. In himself or me. I can't really tell.

-after dinner-

"I'm gonna go to Bi's room." I say getting up. "I'll be there in a bit. Y'all go ahead." Biana answers.

We get to Bianas room. I sit in her bed whilst Fitz's sits in the floor and we earn some side glances but I don't really care.

"They're here!" Biana screams while bolting into the room. "The matchmaking scrolls." I ask confused. "They're the applications. We have to answer to a bunch of questions before we get our actual scrolls."  Biana explains. "Oh" I nod. "Marella, Keefe, Sophie, Dex, Fitz and me." Biana says throwing the scrolls to us one by one. 

"After this what are we going to do." I ask. "What?" I ask because everyone is staring at me. "This is an evenings job. There are about 700 questions to answer. With full sentences." My face droops. "Let's begin!"

After many hours full of eating, groaning, scratching heads and a few bandaids everyone is done. "Oh thank god I'm done!" Marella groans. " Yeah me too." Everyone else says.

" I'm tired I'm going to bed." I say getting up and saying good night to everyone. Fitz's comes too and we head to his room.

The next day

"Good morning everyone!" Biana chirps sitting down at the table. "How do you have so much energy?" Marella asks. "We went to bed at 1 am, and it's only 9 am." Biana just shrugs and goes to the kitchen to get food. I shake my head.

"That girl is so wierd." 

I expect Fitz to be in my head but he's not, so I look around the table and he's not sitting anywhere. "Guys, where's Fitz?" I ask. "Prolly sleeping." Bianca shrugs. "No, he wasn't in bed when I woke up." I say getting a bit worried. "Whoa there Foster what's with the worrying." Keefe  says walking into the room being himself. "Fitzroy is gone." Alden says. "Since when have you been calling Fitz that?" Bianca asks. "Whoa there Mr. Vacker that's a whole mess of emotions." Keenfe says. "Worry, hatred, anxiousness... guilt?!" 

Della stands up and bangs her hands in the table scaring the living crap out of everyone. "And that's pure anger." Keefe states pointing at Della, who is staring into the soul of Alden. "Where is my son?!" She asks Alden, too calmly. 

"Well we had a fight..." "And?" "He stormed off this morning, haven't seen him since." Alden answers realizing the situation. "Alden Dedrick Vacker." Della begins. "Fine, I told him to never show his face in this house again." Alden answers looking very vulnerable. "And that's sorrow." Fitz says walking in. Keefe laughs. "You've learnt from the best Fitzy-poo." Fitz smiles. "Mom I'm fine I went to visit the Hecks'." 

My brains starts ticking. "What was he doing? Why was he there? What if he wasn't actually at the Hecks'!" Fritz turns to me and looks like he's about to say something, but before he does Alden says "Eat." And points at the empty seat at the table.

After breakfast

"Sophie I need to talk to you." Fitz told me from the other side of the table after we finished eating. I nodded and walked out of the dining room. Fitz came after me and I crossed my arms. "Shoot"

 "I wanted to tell you this earlier." Fitz took a deep breath and continued. "I went to the Hecks' today." "And?" I ask signaling with my hands for him to continue. "I went to the Hecks' to tell Stina that we're together." He clearly saw my confused look, because he started talking again. "I never told you this, but me and Stina were together for a while...  like awhile." He said emphasizing the last word. Instantly my brain started to create scenarios of them together.

"I-I- I don't know what to say." I said in the verge on tears. I started running outside. I didn't care we're I was running. Everything turnt into a haze and red started blurring my vision.

A/N I originally had a cliffhanger in this chapter... I ended the chapter before y'all could know what Fitz was about to say. But I hope you liked this chapter! See you in the next one! I have something juicy planned! The next chapter is going to be a special one because it's a Keefe POV.
