Love the way you lie (keeper of the lost cities)

chapter 16

"What the hell! Keefe are you out of your mind? Are you trying to drug me or something?", I sat up from my bed and screemed at Keefe who had a syringe in his hand. I just took a nap right now and I ain't a heavy sleeper that's why I felt someone creeping on to my bed. Keefe had a smirk on his stupid face and look devilish, you know that creepy kind of face when you're about to do something evil. I suck at explaining, so nevermind.

Back to reality...

I tried to pry his arms off me and tried to contact Fitz. I hope he's not asleep, well he's not awake after twelve but please God tell me he broke his curfew today. I pushed him off me again but he comes back up at me, pointing the syringe on the top of my left arm. He's a lot stronger than me but fortunately and to my surprise I turned him over and snatched the syringe from him when he was busy processing the fact that I took control. I pointed it at his face and was ready to stab it right onto his forehead but instead Fitz came barging into my room, in all his glory once again saving the day.

Okay, I sound dramatic. Maybe a lot. Keyword: Maybe.

I got aside from Keefe and Fitz came in and repeatedly punched him in the face.

"Fitz! Get off him! You're going to kill him!" I screamed at Fitz while got him off Keefe.

"He was trying to drug you again and you are trying to defend him!" He spat at me, I actually felt hurt but I let that aside. Keefe drugging me is more important right now. But still... he never rose his voice at me. Ugh! I'm seriously being over - dramatic.

"I'm sorry Fitz... it's just that..." He cut me off and shouted again.

"JUST WHAT?! You care? Care for that ugly prick? He's been drugging you since the beginning and you've been oblivious the whole fucking time! I kept it a secret from you and tried to lead your own way through the clues but you never tried to notice and make out anything!" He spat at me. He looked more deadly than Keefe right now and I couldn’t help but shed a few tears.

"I'm sorry... I didn't mean to..." I whispered softly at him and couldn't take it anymore. Everything came on flooding towards me and I broke down. Broke down over everything. Since the beginning when all this happened. Since when did my life slip out of my hands and turned upside down? It felt like it all happened in a matter of seconds, maybe even less than that. I was tired of all this and I seriously couldn't take it anymore.

I felt like going somewhere and never come back but I couldn’t leave all this mess behind, it would be considered as selfishness. All of those messages were sent by Fitz. He was right, how could I be so blind towards everything? How could I not notice anything while everything was right in front of me? I felt used, sad, depressed but with Fitz I felt the opposite. I felt like I was in heaven, it was ecstatic. Whatever thoughts of me liking Keefe went down the window.

I slided down the bedpost and held onto it like my life was dependent on it. As soon as Fitz heard me sobbing, he slammed Keefe onto one side and came towards me.

"Oh my god Sophie! I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to make you cry... Baby, I hate seeing you cry. Shhh stop Sophie..." He whispered in my neck and started kissing it making my breathing hitch with every breath and teardrop. Soon after the sweet treatment, I regained back my posture. I saw Keefe limp at the corner of my room.

"What happened to him?" I asked lowly afraid that Fitz might burst out again.

"I injected the syringe into him, he won't remember doing this or maybe even more. Now you know he's drugging you all along, we just need to find who is he working for" Fitz said while stroking my hair. What are we? Fitz just chuckled and I looked at him questionly.

"You said that aloud babe and what do you want us to be? Hmm?"

"More than this"

"Mmm... we'll be more than this" He said in a raspy voice, taking my chin in his hands and making me face him and look directly in his eyes. He leaned towards me and made our noses rub against each other. A simple gesture making me moan and him give me a cute grin. I leaned in further and closed the space between us and kissed him. It was slow, soft and sweetly passionate, unlike the others one we had which were hard. It was like he was trying to prove something. We kissed for a few moments but broke apart because we needed to discuss something very important.

"Look babe, Keefe doesn't know you and me are together and he still thinks that you're in the dark. He still thinks that you are 'HIS' so you are going to pretend that" Fitz said, his tone now becoming serious.

"Pretend what?"

"Pretend that you're still with him"

"But what if he get too intimate like he always is?"

"What do you mean always?" He said while growling. It sounded kind of cute. A possessive Fitz is cute.

"He always tries to do something like kiss me when I'm in my senses but I always just never go into it. It never feels right, because everything already feels right... with you." I said lovingly to him while tracing his defined jawline.

"I trust you Sophie and I intend you to keep my trust. I just want you to play along intil we find put who is this prick really working for. I can't believe he betrayed us all" He said with a disgusted face.

"I'll do it"
