Worlds Collide

Chapter 8

Hello everyone! Sorry I took so long to update, it's been a VERY busy couple of weeks for me but I'm back in it! SO, enjoy!! PS: I have never had anything like this happen to me before, so if its terrible I sincerely apologize in advance.

Sophie POV

As I closed the door behind us a million thoughts were racing through my head. I took a deep breath, figuring there was only one way to find out.

"So... what did you want to talk to me about Keefe?" I asked him, noticing he was fidgeting with his hands and acting very nervous.

"Well... I was talking to Biana today and she told me I should just tell you this so, here it goes. Sophie, I really like you. I've liked you since the moment I met you. I don't really deserve you and I completely understand if you don't like me back. I really hope this doesn't ruin our friendship though."

I stared at him, flabbergasted. I couldn't believe he actually felt the same way about me as I did about him. I looked at Keefe and smiled.

"Keefe... I like you too!"

He smiled back at me, not a smirk like he usually did, but a real smile. Then he kissed and, it was so surreal. I had always wondered if kissing was actually as good as the movies and books said they were. Kissing Keefe... was so much better. It just felt so natural. Then, right after we pulled apart, the door opened and Biana, Linh, and Marella tumbled into the room, looked up, and grinned at us sheepishly.

Linh POV

After Sophie and Keefe went into the other room the rest of our group had very mixed reactions. But Biana, Marella, and I knew what was up. We looked at each other and grinned. We had been waiting for them to get together for so long now it was getting ridiculous!

We all tiptoed into the hallway and put our ears against the door. I looked at both at them excitedly, but mostly Marella.

Marella... that girl was something. Her hair with tiny braids scattered through it, framed her heart shaped perfectly, the way that, though she was small, she had a fiery personality that could make everyone afraid of her. She always told the truth to people, even when it might hurt them, which is something I have never been able to do.

After all of that you're probably thinking: you like Marella, don't you Linh? The answer is... yes, I do.

Anyway, all we heard was silence in the room, and I wondered what they were doing. Then Marella accidentally nudged the door handle and we tumbled into the room. Oops.

Sophie and Keefe looked at us in surprise, but I could tell that they were just-

"YESSSSSS!!!!!! MY OTP!!!!"

Biana screamed, loud enough for the whole apartment building to hear, possibly all of NYC.

"Biana Amberley Vacker, what the heck are you doing!!??"

Sophie shouted, her whole face turning red.

"We were trying to listen to your conversation because we've been shipping you guys for a super long time."

Marella said. What did I tell you? She's always honest.

"Sorry to interrupt but... what's a OTP? And what does shipping mean?"

We all looked at each other, even Sophie, and burst out laughing.

By the time we had explained it to him he was blushing just as hard as Sophie.

"Guys, I hate to break this up but, don't we have school tomorrow? We should probably go to bed."

Biana reminded us.

"She's right, I'm definitely ready to turn in. Goodnight, you guys."

I said and went to bed.
