Keefe's P.O.V.
Sophie's tight hug felt wrong somehow and I know said that I'm always here for her, but I felt like I was betraying Fitz. She shouldn't really be hanging out with me, but who else would calm her down? Y/N seemed like she didn't know what to do, but she was now stepping into a sister role. Y/N told Sophie she'll stay for a bit longer, and I had no idea what it was for.
"So, Lord Hunkyhair, how are you feeling?"
"What?"
"Uhm, are you deaf? How are you feeling?" Y/N said, her fingers snapping in my face.
"I'm fine, why are you asking?"
"Yeah, we all know that's a lie. You're sad that my sister likes Fitz and not you," Was I really that obvious? But Y/N's words felt like a punch in the gut. She could obviously see the hurt on my face and Y/N's expression changed instantly.
"Oh, sorry Keefe. I didn't mean to be rude,"
"No, no it's alright," I replied forcing a smirk. But Y/N narrowed her eyes.
"We use the same coping mechanism Keefe. Humor, so your tricks aren't going to work on me," Another punch in the gut. I couldn't stomach how similar Y/N and I were.
"You're putting yourself through hell trying to help Sophie find her biological parents. The only reason she's doing it is to have a good reason to go with Fitz. Don't deny it, but I know how it feels to see the person you love like someone else," My head snapped up.
"You do? How did you deal with it?"
"Well, I tried to move on, but I just couldn't. I always stood on sidelines watching them finally confess their feelings and then I was out of the picture. I tried to ignore it, but then I realized something. Maybe the person you love, just isn't for you, no matter how much they understand you or make you feel like a person. Maybe you guys are better off just being friends. I'm not telling you to stop hoping, but I just want to say the same thing you always say to Sophie. I'll always be here Keefe. It'll be our little secret and when you can't take it anymore, I'll find a way to help you," Y/N consoled. Tears filled my eyes. Because honestly, no one has ever said that before. Not even Sophie. I have never felt like this. I looked at our intertwined hands and could feel that Y/N was telling the truth.
"Is this what it feels like to have someone who truly cares about you?" My voice cracked. Because I knew that whatever Y/N is saying is true. I've been trying to ignore my feelings for three years and I didn't think I could go much longer, but Y/N's words made me feel stronger. Like I could take on the whole world with her at my side. I looked at Y/N, water balancing on my lashes and she nodded with a warm smile.
"I'll always be here Keefe," She engulfed me with a hug and I glanced at Ro who was looking at the the sandy floor.
"What have you got to say about this Ro?" I sniffed.
"I think a new ship is forming," She said with a wicked smile. Y/N jerked back, blushing.
"Yeah, I haven't forgot about that moment you both shared on the first day Y/N arrived,"
Y/N turned even redder and I burst out laughing.
"I don't think she's ever going to stop talking about this now,"
"You're right about that"
