⟪This one is kind of inspired by that scene in book 3 where they're heading to visit Silveny at the sanctuary and Keefe lends Sophie his cape when she's cold! Enjoy! - Eve⟫

Sophie shivered, her hair not protecting ears the way she wanted it to.

she was now realizing that she should have brought a cape with her, it would've made this trek a lot easier.

"Cold?" Keefe asked when he noticed her shaking.

"A little," Sophie admitted, but it sounded more like, "a l-l-little,"

"A little?" Keefe repeated, smirking. 

Sophie glared at him, annoyed. But her anger quickly faded when he unpinned his cape and wrapped it around her shaking shoulders, pinning it gently under her chin and pulling it snug around her.

Her shivering calmed down almost immediately.

The cape smelled like him, and she wanted to wrap herself tighter in the fabric and bask in his scent.

She wanted to live in his cape forever.

His hands lingered on her shoulders for a second, probably feeling her emotions, before he pulled the hood of the cape over her head.

She grimaced when the long fabric folded over her eyes, blinding her.

Keefe laughed, pulling it back a little so she could see.

"Better?" he asked, smiling a real Keefe smile.

She leaned up and kissed him softly. "Much."

He grinned.
