"Morning, lovebirds!" A cheery voice bouncing around her skull makes Sophie groan. She buries her head deeper into the pillow she has a death grip on, until she realizes her pillow is breathing. Keefe. Sophie's head is resting on Keefe's chest, listening to his steady heart beat and breathing to lull her to sleep. Her arms are snaked around his stomach, linked together on the other side of him. Both of his hands are resting on her back. The voice is back again all too soon.
"Wake. Up." Dex is the one speaking. He's shaking her shoulder violently, eliciting another groan. Keefe stirs underneath her, nuzzling closer to Sophie.
"Go away, Dex. I'm comfortable." Sophie sighs, making Dex shake her shoulder harder.
"Foster?" Keefe's voice is low and grainy, and it makes her want to collapse back on his chest and act like nothing else matters. Sophie hesitantly gets up, rubbing the sleep from her eyes. Keefe copies her, trying to flash a smirk that ends up as an adorable sleepy grin.
"Living room in 10. We're playing Truth or Dare today,"

"Who's going first?" Fitz asks. They are all still in their pajamas sitting in a messy circle around the room. Sophie and Linh are laying on the counter of the kitchen, which Sophie crashed into as soon as she got down the stairs, seeing as it was the first solid thing she saw. Fitz and Dex are sitting on the couch, Keefe laying on his back on the coffee table. Biana and Marella are sprawled out on the shaggy rug, looking very proud of themselves for choosing this game. Tam positions himself next to Biana, their knees touching.
"I will!" Marella volunteers, a wicked smile sprawled across her face. She turns to Dex.
"Truth or Dare?"
"Truth...?"
"Do you have a crush on anyone?"
Dex swallows, and Sophie barely hears his small reply of "yes."
Everyone cheers, asking who it is. Dex's face looks like it might explode any second, and his eyes wouldn't meet Marella's.Keefe claps him on the back, "Who is it man?" Dex rolls his eyes, saying something like 'not included in the truth'.
"Come on, man! I think I already know who it is," Keefe winks at Marella, turning Dex's face even brighter.
"Truth or dare, Keefe?" Dex asks.
"Smooth subject change, dude. Really, I think everyone forgot what they were talking about for a second there."
"Truth or dare?"
Keefe smirks, crossing his arms and raising an eyebrow. Sophie witnessed that look all too many times, right before something gets blown up or a prank is pulled. "Dare." Dex suddenly turns to Sophie, flashing the most smug smile ever. She feels her stomach drop, and she has the sudden need to retch.
"I dare you to call Grady on Sophie's Imparter." Everybody jeers, and Sophie starts to feel a small smile spread across her lips. "Shirtless."
Keefe looks unsure, and looks to Sophie. He wants to see if it's okay. He doesn't want to do something Sophie will be uncomfortable with.
"I thought Keefe Sencen never turns down a dare?" Is all Sophie says, before handing Keefe her Imparter.
"You can't have a shirt on, remember?" Dex reminds him, and Keefe strips his shirt off, throwing it on the ground. Sophie tries to avoid staring, but her gaze catches on a scar. Many tiny scars scattered around his muscular abdomen, and Keefe catches her staring. Raises a brow. Sophie looks away.
