Two Forbidden Sides (Sophitz)

~31~

(A couple days later)

Fitz's POV

I waited for the moment my mom entered my room with an envelope in her hand, and a smile came when she did.

"Thank you." She smiled, kissing the top of my head.

"Of course sweetheart," she said before leaving the room. After she closed the door after her, I opened the envelope and eagerly pulled out the paper, unfolding it.

Dear Fitzy,

I always knew you had a romantic and poetic side in you, and that letter definitely proved me right. Either way, it was really sweet. I can't wait to see you, but I suppose I'll have to deal with writing to you. Even though I would prefer to hear you darling.

Linh's definitely been a big help with this whole thing, and she's still got an eye on Marella, but we have a few other suspects as well. But nothing much has changed since last I wrote to you.

But I did get a bodyguard. His name is Brandon. I don't know how I feel about having a bodyguard because most of the time I kind of forget that I have one, because of how little I see him. Either way, that's how I prefer it to be.

I miss you a lot sweetheart. I wish I could sneak out of the palace to see you, but I don't want to get in even more trouble if my parents catch me. I love you so much darling.

Anyway, tell me more about what you do back home. I love you, always and forever.

Only yours,

Soph ❤️

A smile came to my face as I read it, taking a seat at my desk, and pulling a piece of paper and a pen, starting to write.

Dear princess,

I would definitely prefer to hear and see you too my love. And I suppose you're right, maybe I do have a poetic side. I swear you know me better than I know myself. I miss you so much, and the urge to want to leave the palace and see you is becoming stronger each day.

Nothing much happens here, and it's pretty boring. My sister, Biana, always tries to cheer me up everyday, but it never actually works. Either way I've grounded myself in my room, and never leave it.

My mom told me about getting a bodyguard for me, but they're still discussing it. But I know they'll get me one soon.

I hope you guys made progress on trying to find out who sent your parents the recording.

Anyways, love you so much, always and forever.

Yours truly,

Fitzy ❤️

P.S. By the way, if Brandon ever tries to pull a move on you, I will make my way over there. Love you dearly

I folded it, and placed it inside the envelope, writing "My Love" on it. I placed it underneath my notebooks, and laid back down on my bed. I was a bit bored, and at some point Biana was going to come into my room and call me boring anyways, so may as well do something now.

So I'm going to paint. I haven't done it in a while, but I think I'm pretty good at it. I pulled out a canvas from underneath my bed, painting supplies from my drawers, and my paint cup that I filled up with water. I looked around my room, thinking about what to paint, and I looked at the picture frame of Sophie and I. I took a seat on the ground and started to begin.

Biana's POV

After reorganizing my room, I headed across the hall into Fitz's room, knocking before I did. I found him cross cross on the ground, painting.

"Ooh Fitz what're you painting?" I looked behind him, finding a lot of pencil streaks on the canvas and a bit of painting. I looked at his inspiration, my eyes softened. It was a picture of him and Sophie.

"Something." He answered.

"It looks pretty good so far," he shrugged his shoulders.

"You think? I feel like the colors look a bit off." I shook my head.

"No, it looks good. It's been a while since you've painted." He nodded his head.

"Yeah, I was a bit bored, so may as well paint." He responded.

"That's nice, one day can you paint something for me?" He shrugged his shoulders.

"If I have the time to, yeah." I smile, and take a seat next to him. I look at the picture, I've never actually noticed it before.

"Sophie's really pretty, I love her hair."

"Me too." He answered.

"Oooh and her dress is so cute." I say.

"Mhm. Anything she wore, she looked gorgeous in," Fitz said.

"I think you guys would make a cute couple. I know that you love her a lot, and I have no doubt that she must love you too. You're pretty amazing." Fitz turned around confused.

"Are you dizzy?" I roll my eyes, giving him the picture back.

"No. I complimented you. And I've realized my happy attitude all the time doesn't really help you with anything. So I'll dial it down."

"Thanks. Are you sure you're not dizzy?" I cross my arms across my chest.

"No I'm not. Anyway, I'm going out soon, so I'm going to start getting myself ready. Good luck with your painting."

"Thanks. Have fun." I walked out of the room, and headed into mine, starting to get ready with my date with Tam.

Hey guysss! Sorry for such a long update. I got a bit of writers block mid way, and I was starting to pre write future chapters of the book. This chapter is 900 words compared to 1k that I typically write, but this is going to be the last filler chapter before we get to more exciting parts. Please comment and vote, and thanks for reading!
