Jealous ♥︎ A Keeper of the Lost Cities Fanfiction

Chapter One

Hello! This is a Sophitz and a Sokeefe story, as you can probably tell. This is going to be updated kinda slow, so don't be too mad if I don't update in forever.

Sophie glanced down at her Matchmaker's Scroll, just to make sure all the names were in the same spot. It wasn't like they would change, but still. She still couldn't believe that Fitz, Fitz Vacker, was her number 3. Keefe was her number 1, but that didn't matter.

She hope that she was high up on Fitz's scroll. After all, they were Cognates so it was highly possible. Luckily, he hadn't found out her secret but Sophie promised herself to tell him, very soon. She just didn't know how soon. Elves had indefinite lifespans, so a century would count as pretty soon. Right?

Well, she could always ask Biana how high up she was on his list. 

Grabbing her imparter, she quickly hailed Biana.

"Hey, just wondering... Who's on your brother's list?"

Through the screen, Sophie saw Biana smirk.

"And this has nothing to do with your not-so little crush on him, huh?"

Sophie blushed.

"Erm-it's completely unrelated."

Biana shrugged. "Sure it is. I'll go check right now. Do you wanna compare lists later? I'll get Linh to come over as well."

"'Kay."

The screen darkened and Sophie had the feeling Biana had stuffed her imparter under her blankets.

After a minute or so, Sophie heard Biana's footsteps. 

When the imparter was picked up again, Biana's face was beaming.

"Good news!" She squealed.

"You're number 2 on his list! Oh my gosh! We could totally end up as sisters! Eeeeek!"

Although she was absolutely delighted, she tried not to let it show

"I don't even think he likes me like that."

Biana rolled her eyes.

"I'm like 99.99% sure that almost all the guys that are in our level have a crush on you."

Sophie flushed pink again.

"So leap here and bring your list. I'm so glad I forced you to get it."

Sophie smiled.

"I'm actually kinda glad that you forced me." She said.

Then with that comment, Sophie ended the hail and headed to the Leapmaster.

"Mom! Dad! I'm going to Everglen."

Grady grumbled. "I bet it has something to do with boys."

"Oh come on Grady, she's not 12 anymore." Edaline said.

A smile tugged at Sophie's lips. She had a feeling Grady would still be like that when she was 100.

"It actually is about boys."

Grady sighed. 

"Well, I know you'll make the right choice when the time comes. Even though I'd prefer it to not be That Boy." He added.

"His name is Keefe and besides, I have someone else in mind."

Edaline grinned.

"Would you mind telling? It couldn't be Fitz, could it?"

"I-how'd you kno-nevermind. I have to go so-um-bye." She stammered.

Her adoptive mother somehow grinned even bigger.

"Oh, I see."

Sophie groaned internally. She's almost as bad as Biana, she thought.

"Everglen!" She shouted and a small crystal lowered down and created a beam of light. Sophie walked into it, clutching her scroll.
