Sophie sat down on her bed and started reading. Then she tried to sleep after a few hours. She couldn't. Sophie just sat down staring at her blanket. She kept thinking of what would happen next to her. She almost kept dying. She couldn't do it anymore. She couldn't pretend not to be scared or sad. She cried and let her tears flow down her face.
"Foster? Hey, what's wrong."
"I-i can't do it anymore. I c-cant pretend n-not be sad o-or scared anymore! I keep almost dying, Keefe!" Sophie said, crying.
"It's ok. You won't die. I won't let that happen to you." Keefe said as Sophie cried on his shirt.
Keefe let Sophie cry. A few minutes later, Sophie stopped.
"Wait. Why are you here?" Sophie said, sniffling.
"Well, I knew you couldn't sleep, so I decided to come."
Keefe wrapped his arms around Sophie. Sophie leaned on his chest.
"It's ok. You're safe." Keefe whispered.
A few minutes later, Sophie fell asleep, trusting Keefe.
Sophie woke up in the morning feeling Keefes' arms still wrapped around her.
KEEFES POV
"Morning," Keefe said, gently leaning his head on hers.
"What time is it?" Sophie said, yawning.
"Uh, 9 am."
"I'm gonna change. Stay here," Sophie said.
"Okay,"
Sophie got up and went to the washroom to change. Keefe waited. His eyes wandered around the room.
"Done!"
Keefe looked at Sophie. Wow. She looked gorgeous.
"Uhh, Keefe?" Sophie said, noticing Keefe staring.
"Uh, right, sorry. Let's go downstairs."
They went downstairs and ate. They talked and laughed for a while. A few minutes later, Keefe left, and Sophie went back to her room. She went on her computer and saw she got an email.
"Hello, students of Foxfire.
School will be canceled for three weeks. There is a kidnapper on the loose and seen near our grounds. Your homework has been sent to your door and is due at the start of school.
Stay safe,
Foxfire Staff"
"Huh weird." Sophie said.
Sophie went downstairs to check if her homework had arrived. It was at her door. She picked it up and went to her room to finish it. A few minutes later, Sophie got a text notification from Biana.
B:I hate homeworkkkkkk.
S:I don't.
B:Can I come over to your house so we can do it together?
S:Sure
B:kk see u
Sophie decided to continue her homework while waiting for Biana. 30 minutes pass by Biana still isn't at Sophie's house. She lives close. She texted Biana. No answer. She called Biana. No answer. She got worried so she decided to walk to Bianas house to check if she's at home. No one was home. Sophie went back to her house, worried. She kept calling Biana. No answer.
Sophie decided to call Keefe because she was worried.
"Foster? Are you ok?"
"Um. Keefe, I'm really worried."
