Sophie's P.O.V

"It's a promise ring," I pulled mine out of my pocket putting on " you have my initials and I have yours, it's a promise from me that I will love you forever...it's kinda a human thing," I blushed uncontrollably "do you like it?"

We locked eyes.
"It's the best gift I've ever been given,"he replied softly, fondly even. His eyes were glassed over like he was trying not to cry.
But he was happy, I could tell.

He leaned in closer. I could feel his breath on me. "Thanks Foster..I think I needed this."

I closed the gap.
And this, it just never got old.
That feeling.

Keefe pulled me up on his lap and deepened the kiss further. It became faster, more passionate and I felt like I was on cloud nine.

I ran my hands through his hair and I felt his smile against my lips as he sighed happily.

"Uh...could you not."

Grady.

I pull away, I'm certain my face is red.

All our friends were laughing. Traitors.

"Uhh...hey dad."

"Humph...suppose I should be used to it by now bu-ow...why?"
He was interrupted by a whack from Edaline.

"Ignore him...you did great sweetie, all your teachers were praising you, we're so proud."

I let out a sigh of relief.
"Thanks mom...I'm glad it's all over."

I looked around and saw my friends with their parents. There were smiles and hugs being exchanged and I can see the relief on their faces.

I turned to talk to Keefe (ignoring Dex saying very loudly 'we're just gonna ignore the fact Keefe literally moaned when she ran her hands through his hair?') but...he wasn't there.

"Mom?..dad?..did you see Keefe?"

"He's over there with Lord Cassius."

I turned...they were over near the door and Lord Cassius looked angry like really angry. Keefe was just looking at the ground...fiddling with his promise ring. That made me smile...but it was gone again in a second.

Why could Lord Cassius never accept Keefe? Why was nothing good enough for him?

Keefe started arguing back to him and I look back at my friends and the parents to see if they're seeing this too.

They're all watching.

Then the strangest, most horrible thing happened.
