Sophie's pov

Oops, Keefe just ran out after I told him that I heard him confessing that he liked me.

I should've told him right there that I liked him back!

But why didn't I, you might ask me.

Because I freaked out! And a freaked-out Sophie doesn't do anything right!

Elwin came to check on me and when he said I was good to go, I practically sprinted all the way to Keefe's dorm.

I knocked on the door of his dorm, but no answer–obviously.

I knocked the door more rapidly and loudly this time.
"KEEFE! I KNOW THAT YOU'RE IN THERE! QUIT BEING IMMATURE AND LET ME IN! OR ELSE I'M GOING TO KICK DOWN THAT DOOR AND YOU BETTER NOT BE BEHIND IT!!!" I threatened him, knowing that I'll be able to kick down that door easily since my adoptive dad (who is overprotective I might add) insisted that I must learn kung-fu and all that stuff to protect myself.

I heard a muffled "Fine" from behind the door and the locks clicked open.

I practically tumbled into the room because the door opened so abruptly and I was leaning on it.

I would've fallen if a pair of arms hadn't caught me.

"Geez Foster, falling for me already?" Keefe joked.
I felt myself blushing and looked anywhere but him.

"So... why are you here?" Keefe asks, looking kind of awkward.

I... didn't know what I was going to say.

What if he didn't believe that I liked him back?
What if I said that I liked him but he only said he liked me as a joke or a prank?
What if Fitz gets angry since I know that he likes me?
What if—

My thoughts were interrupted by someone clearing his throat. I didn't know what to do so I let my instincts take over.

I stood on my tippy toes and kissed him.

It took me a whole second to realize what I just did.

Oh my freaking gods, I just kissed one of the most popular and handsome boys at our school! What am I supposed to do?

I thought that he was going to pull away, but he kissed me back.

We were interrupted by a shrill scream that probably everyone at school could hear.

"What the FUCK are you two doing?" Fitz screamed in a high pitched girl voice.
(A/N I've always thought of Fitz having a girls' scream)

We practically flung ourselves as far as we could, resulting in me bumping into Fitz.

"We... I-I can explain." I said, Fitz raised an eyebrow.
"I-I came ba-ack to te-tell Keefe th-at I'm tha-ankful for hi-im bringing me to the nur-urse's office." I said, trying not to make Fitz angry.

"Well, I thought you said that you like me!" Fitz said, pointing a finger at me.
"I did! I really did, " I said "but you've been different, these days. You've become more...... angry somehow."
"ME?! ANGRY?! No I'm not!" Fitz said, clearly unaware that he just raised his voice.
"You are right now." I said. "Look Fitz, we could still be friends but I like Keefe now, I gave you a chance but you threw it away."
"Fine!" Fitz said, then went into his room once again.

"Gosh, we still have to deal with him during rehearsals!" I said.
"It's going to be okay." Keefe said, making me jump.

I totally did not forget that he was there, totally.
(You didn't sense the sarcasm there... did you?)

I kissed him once again, then left.
"Good night Keefe."
"Night Foster."

-time skip to last rehearsal-

This is our last rehearsal, this is IT! Performance is tomorrow.

"Welcome, my lovely theatre students! This is our final rehearsal!" (that earned a cheer from the cast and crew) "I am so thankful for everyone who's committed to this musical this whole school year, and thankful for our wonderful cast who worked hard on the performance and our amazing crew who made all the impossible possible. I am beyond grateful to have you all join this, and may our last rehearsal go as smoothly as possible. Thank you." Ms.Proteque said to all of us, wiping fake tears away. (which earned a collective laughter)

Keefe and I performed practically all the solos to the rest of the people except for Breaking Free, which is supposed to be a "reward" for those who worked hard for this musical. So the director aka Ms.Proteque made sure to make us work extra hard on this song more than others.

She already pushed us to our limits on every. single. song. but she wanted us to go beyond our limits on this song, "making this the most spectacular performance ever.". She made us practice this song in practice-rooms daily during breaks and lunch. Keefe and I had sooooooo much practice time together that I basically knew everything about him now.

"Please welcome Sophie Foster and Keefe Sencen on stage for Breaking Free!!" Ms.Proteque announced. I can hear the cast and crew's cheers and words of courage.

I took a deep breath and began the song we worked on for a whole month.

We're soaring, flying
There's not a star in heaven that we can't reach
If we're trying
So, we're breaking free
You know the world can see us
In a way that's different than who we are
Creating space between us
'Till we're separate hearts
But your faith, it gives me strength
strength to believe
We're breaking free!
We're soaring
Flying
There's not a star in heaven that we can't reach
If we're trying
Yeah, we're breaking free
Oh, we're breaking free
Can you feel it building?
Like a wave the ocean just can't control
Connected by a feeling
Ooh, in our very souls
Very soul, ooh
Rising 'till it lifts us up
So, everyone can see
We're breaking free!
We're soaring
Flying
There's not a star in heaven that we can't reach
If we're trying
Yeah, we're breaking free
Oh, we're breaking free
Ooh, running
Climbing
To get to that place
To be all that we can be
Now's the time
So, we're breaking free
We're breaking free
Ooh, yeah
More than hope, more than faith
This is truth, this is fate
And together we see it coming
More than you, more than me
Not a want, but a need
Both of us breaking free!
Soaring
Flying
There's not a star in heaven that we can't reach
If we're trying
Yeah, we're breaking free
Breaking free
We're running
Ooh, climbing
To get to the place
To be all that we can be
Now's the time
Now's the time
So, we're breaking free
Oh, we're breaking free
Ooh
You know the world can see us
In a way that's different than who we are

We finished only an inch away from each other, then Keefe leaned in and it was like a thousand little lightning bolts went through my body which gave me a little shiver.
I heard everyone going wild and as we break apart, I can feel my smile plastered onto my face.
