"I got you!" 

Sophie Foster said, and half tagged- half pushed Fitz Vacker, making Fitz stumble forward a bit and trip over a tree root, face planting himself into a pool of mud. 

They were playing Base Quest with Keefe and Biana. 

Sophie burst into laughter and helped a steaming Fitz to his feet. Sophie calmed down at the glowering Fitz and took a look at his face. 

Bits of chunky unknown things were stuck to his face and his hair was all messed up, the brown substance covering it. But- his face. 

Sophie cracked up again and started gasping for air. 

His face- all smeared with mud, the chunky things and the twigs in his hair. 

Fitz scowled. "What's so funny?" He asked a chortling Sophie.

Sophie brought out an elven mirror with shaking hands and handed it to Fitz. His eyes widened as he saw his refelection. Then he cracked up too. 

What he did next was unimaginable. 

Fitz picked up some mud and smeared some more on his face, and Sophie and Fitz laughed again. A snickering  Sophie flung a handful of mud at Fitz as Fitz attempted to wipe his face with his cape. 

The mud caught him by surprise, but he quickly recovered. "Oh, it is ON!" He shouted and pelted Sophie with mud. 

Sophie laughed and squealed as she returned fire and succeeded a couple of times in hitting Fitz. 

Laughter rang out into the air and Keefe and Biana ran over to the source. They clambered out into the clearing where Fitz and Sophie were having their mud fight. 

Keefe and Biana watched, stunned, for a few seconds before speaking up. 

"Uh, guys, what are you-" Biana started, but Keefe interrupted her. 

"A mud bath? Really, guys? Foster and Fitz, I am your best friend. I expect you to include me in these kinds of festivities!" Keefe said in a stern tone and picked up two handfuls of mud. 

"Now I get to punish you." He said, smiling evilly and flung the mud. 

Sophie squealed and laughed as the mud hit her, and Fitz did just as well. 

Keefe kept chucking mud at the Cognates and it looked so fun, Biana just had to- 

A mud ball hit her tunic. 

Sophie, Fitz, and Keefe froze. Oh geez. It. Hit. Her. Tunic. And the look on her face was murderous. 

Keefe didn't need to be a telepath to know what the others were thinking. 

RUN.

Sophie, Keefe, and Fitz tore through the woods of Everglen, their legs stretching as they pounded across the earthy ground. Biana was not far behind.

"You GUYS!!!!!" She screamed, and Sophie made the mistake of looking back at her. So did Fitz.

Their reward was a faceful of mud. Sophie got knocked back from the force, bumping into Fitz, who tripped on a root and fell backwards with Sophie on him.

Unfortunately they were standing on a slope, and Fitz, who still couldn't see very well due to to the mud covering his face, slipped and fell down the slope, bringing Sophie with him, and landed in the grass with a big thud. 

Once Sophie and Fitz recovered from their dizziness, they realized that they were in a.. er.. awkward position. Sophie was on Fitz'a chest, and their faces were only inches apart. 

"Um..." Sophie started, but Fitz cut her off. 

"We can stay like this for as long as you like." He said shyly. 

Sophie flushed. "Maybe a minute longer." 

Fitz leaned in slowly, closing the distance between them- 

 Until Keefe ruined it. 

"Whoo! Those are some intense emotions I'm sensing from you guys! What are you-" Keefe tromped over to the slope, Biana behind him, where the pair fell and laughed hysterically. He stopped as he saw the pair on the ground. 

The Cognates leaped up and separated, looking anywhere but at each other. 

 Biana squealed and shrieked, and Sophie and Fitz flushed red. 

"OH MY GOSH GUYS WHAT ARE YOU DOING???!!"  She shrieked and giggled like a psycho. 

"We were just-" Fitz started, and realized that there was no point in telling Biana that Sophitz wasn't a thing. 

"Stuttering now, aren't you?" Keefe added and wiggles his eyebrows, joining in on teasing the pair. 

"Shut up, Keefe." Sophie said, her cheeks flaming.

Meanwhile, Biana was dancing around in the background and screaming, "I SHIP IT!! I SHIP IT!! I SHIP IT!!!! I SHIP IT!!! SOPHITZ!!!!

"Okay guys, Shut. Up. Now." Sophie and Fitz said in unison. 

"Awwww." Biana squealed, and Fitz and Sophie glared at her. 

"Okay, it's clear that Sophitz is a thing, guys, don't deny it.." Keefe said, and laughed until he felt something splatter in his hair. 

Keefe stopped and reached up to touch his hair. Slimy, wet. Brown. He saw Fitz's arm outstretched and Sophie trying to keep the laughter in. 

"FITZ VACKER!!!!!!! WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY HAIR???????"

From inside the mansion, Della heard the commotion outside, and tracked their voices to the speaker. 

Then she saw her dancing daughter, a screaming Keefe, a  laughing pair of Cognates, what's new? Except that everyone was covered in mud. 

"Oh my gosh!!!" Shouted Della, attracting everyone's attention. "What happened?" 

No one said anything. 

"Okay. You will all clean up after the mess you leave in the house, but, you will shower. Unfortunately, there are only two showers, so you guys will have to pair up." 

There was an immediate scrambling for partners. 

"Okay, sure. Um.. are you guys sure you don't want to go girls and boys?" Della asked the the pairs, Keefe and Biana , and Fitz and Sophie. 

"I'm going to make sure that Fitz doesn't smear anything into my hair again." Keefe said and glared.

 "Wise choice. " Fitz said and smiled. "Sophie and I will do just fine. Right?" He asked Sophie and squeezed her arm. 

Sophie's heart burst into flutters. 

"Yeah... we'll do great!" She managed to choke out. 

They turned to leave, but Biana smiled and said, "Sophitz." 

The Cognates blushed and stomped away, and from behind them they could hear Keefe and Biana cheering and shouting "Sophitz"
