Chapter 15

SHE'S ALIVE!" FITZ TEASED WHEN SOPHIE wandered into the living room the next day. He sat in an overstuffed armchair reading a book called Twenty-Five Ways to Catch the Wind. "You do realize you slept through breakfast and lunch, right?"

Keefe: *snickers* I didn't know Foster was the type of person to sleep in.

Sophie: Hey! What does that mean??

Marella: I'm not going to lie, you seem like the type of person to wake up at 5 am, brew yourself ginger tea, go for a five mile run, take a shower, get dressed, make breakfast, tend to like... uh... I don't know, a garden, all under forty five minutes.

Tam: Did someone say ginger tea?

Keefe: Gosh... someone shut that guy up.

Tam: *death glare* Rude much?

"I did?" Sophie looked around, trying to find a clock, but everything was covered in weird clothes—like a costume shop threw up on the furniture. "Sorry. I guess I was tired."

Biana: Weird clothes?? My house is not covered in "weird clothes"!

Keefe: With all due respect, yes it is

Tam: I agree

Fitz: You've never even been to my house...

Tam: Your point is?

"You had a rough day yesterday. Plus, your body needs rest while it detoxes," Della said, materializing in the center of the room.

Sophie clutched her chest. She couldn't understand how anyone could get used to the ghostly way Vanishers appeared.

Della frowned as she met Sophie's eyes. "How are you doing?"

Sophie shrugged. She didn't know how to answer.

"Well, you look great. Not that you weren't pretty before, but I think that detox made a difference. You should see how shiny your hair is, and your eyes are so . . . exotic. You're going to be quite the heartbreaker when you grow up."

"Who is?" Biana strode into the room in a fitted dress with intricate gold embroidery that shimmered with every step. She looked way more glamorous than any twelve-year-old had the right to look.

Biana: Okay, I like you so much more now Sophie.

Sophie: And you didn't like me before???

Biana: Wait I thought you already knew that-

"Sophie," Della said, smiling at Sophie. "Doesn't she look pretty today?"

There might've been things that were less embarrassing than that moment, but Sophie couldn't think of any. Especially when Biana shrugged, and asked, "Isn't that the same dress you wore yesterday?"

Linh: Biana...

Biana: I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I was a jerk.

Tam: Well, I'm glad to know your self conscious <3

Biana: I hate you.

Tam: You love me.

Biana: Nope, I swear. I hate you.

Ro: Lies, I tell you, lies......

"All my other clothes were—" she started to explain, but Della held up her hand.

"I'm sorry. I should've sent something up for you. I've been shopping all morning." She waved her arms at the explosion of clothes. "Behold. Your new wardrobe."
