"WHAT?!?!?!?" Sophie yelled to the imparter, her voice filling the space that made up her bed room. "I come home from a meeting with none other than The President, to find out that I have to go on DATES????"
"Sophie, please don't overreact. It's actually quite common after you get your scrolls!" Edaline said, her periwinkle blue eyes looking at Sophie intently. "Hon, I know you have a lot going on at work, but this is something that's right for you. Ok?" Sophie sighed deeply, not liking this.
"Mom, I know you want me to find someone. But sending me on dates with 2 people I've known for most of my Elvin life and 3 I've only met once??" She cried.
"Sophie, dearest," Edaline began. "I need you to know this- you don't have to go on the dates. But there are those looking forward to this. You are, of course, Sophie Foster-Ruewen." Her eyes glimmered teasingly.
"Ugh, mom!" Sophie rolled her eyes, but a smile graced her lips. "So, what order is it in?"
"Well, it's random. And... you don't know who'll be there when." Edaline grinned, clearly proud of her added stresser.
"WHAT!??!?!??! NO YOU CANTDOTHATWHATIFILOOKBADINFRONTOFKEEFEORFITZ?!?!!?!" She yelled, the last of the words barely coherent.
"SOPHIEDONTWORRYTHEYLOVEYOUANYWAYSYOUFOOL!!!" Edaline yelled back. Sophie didn't understand a word her mother (who just so happened to look the same age as herself) had said.
"Whatever, mom!" Sophie said before shutting off the holographic image.
"Well darn, looks like I'm going on a date with someone tomorrow!" She said with false enthusiasm. "Hopefully it ends with me jumping off a bridge." She rolled her eyes and fell on her bed. When would she be getting a break?
Clearly not then, because her imparter rang again. With a disgruntled scream, she picked it up, but made sure to calm herself before answering her friend.
"Hey Sophie!" Biana said, her teal eyes lighting up when she saw her. "So, I know you're busy but..." she bit her lip. "I think that my brother is planning something." There was an odd little grin on her face.
"Oh god, Fitz planning something?" Sophie said in a falsely aghast voice. "How could he ever?" Bianca rolled her eyes.
"Sophie, this is important!! Edaline gave him the date that you'd be... well, dating, and I'm pretty sure there's something big planned." Sophie was interested.
"So what's the day???"
"I'm not allowed to tell you."
"Why not?? I'll find out eventually."
"Actually, no you won't. Not until he does. Because he- well, he had the day wiped. All he knows- and all I'll tell you- is it isn't tomorrow."
"SO WHY DID YOU CALL ME?"
"Well duh! Now you have to dress up every day!" Biana winked, and soon was followed by her holographic image.
"SUEGAIBEKABRJDVSHSV DUH DBSKEBJF!!!!!" Was all Sophie was able to formulate with her mouth. She fell on the bed again, refusing to acknowledge that she... existed. It wasn't long before she was able to fall asleep.... not.
She was forced to stay awake, pacing the room, no idea what to do. She would have the treaty meeting soon (the council would be there as well) and she had her personal life to deal with? What was next? A need to create a secret identity like Forkle had?
Knock on wood. Because, when it came to Sophie, do you ever know? Not really.
So it was 4 am before she finally "fell asleep". Or, more accurately, collapsed into an exhausted heap with a dress in her hands, debating weather or not to ask/force Biana to come and do her makeup.
Wouldn't she just look lovely for the date... tonight?

GUYSS I'M SORRY FOR THE MOSTLY FILLER CHAPTER!!! AND MY INACTIVITY!! AND FOR NOT MAKING IT CLEAR THAT TRUMP WAS NOT THE PRESIDENT IN THE LAST CHAPTER ((guys, Sophie is 66, and she was around 12 in Obama's presidency, so... not trump.)) BUT TOMORROW I WILL UPDATE WITH HER FIRST OF FIVE DATES AND SHOW YOU HOW IT GOES IN HER SLEEP DEPRIVED STATE. I may have to make her take a day off work.
ALSO!!! Other news!!!
I'm planning a new story! So... anyone remember Neverseens goal? Like... trap humans in a dome type stuff? I'm doing a story on what if that had happened type thing, where elves had basically found a way to keep humans at bay.
This means that Sophie wasn't born, and lots of things are different like- ·Tam wasn't born with a twin
·Sophie doesn't exist
·Keefe and Fitz aren't friends
·Keefes mom not in the Neverseen
·Keefe being emo af but still perfection
·Human music/traditional human stuff is introduced to elves
·Lots of other stuffTHIS IS A WIP, AND I PROBABLY WON'T HAVE ANYTHING DEVELOPED FOR LIKE, A FEW WEEKS. JUST WONDERING IF ANYONE FINDS IT INTERESTING.
anyway, I love you all! You guys are lovely. Keep reading and being lovely :D
