Keeper of the Great Adventures

Chapter 10

 Fitz greeted them and told them to come inside.

"What are you wearing, Sophie?" Biana gasped. Sophie looked down and instantly turned red when she realized she was still wearing her nightgown.

"Keefe! Why didn't you say anything?" Sophie shouted.

"Because you look adorable!" Keefe said, smirking. Sophie rolled her eyes and turned to Biana.

"Do you have some clothes I could borrow? I can't exactly run around in this gown." Sophie asked.

Biana squealed and said, "Makeover!!"

"Uh oh," Biana grabbed her arm and pulled her into a room. Well, more of a closet.

"Let's fix your clothes. I was thinking of a bright red sparkly dress with black leggings."

"Do you have anything less flashy?"

Biana sighed and said, "What about this cobalt blue dress with a black belt and black leggings?"

"That does sound less flashy," Sophie mumbled. "Okay, I'll try it," Sophie said. She changed and then was dragged into the bathroom. Before she knew it, there was a curling iron up to her head.

"Curls? Really?" Sophie complained. Biana giggled in response. Biana finished with her hair, then pulled out her makeup.

"No! No, makeup!" Sophie pleaded.

"Just a little?" Biana asked, giving her puppy eyes. Biana ended up putting on some gold eyeliner on her.

"Don't give me that look! I've told you time and again that it really brings out the gold flecks in your eyes!" Biana said after Sophie glared at her.

"Are we done yet?" Sophie asked.

"Almost," Biana said, as she handed her some black boots. "And done!" Sophie put the boots on and walked out with Biana. By then, everyone had arrived. All the boy's jaws dropped a little after seeing Sophie.

Keefe sucked in a breath and, under his breath, said, "Wow..." Sophie's heart fluttered when she caught Keefe staring at her. He looked away, turning red.

"You look awesome!" Linh said with a warm smile.

"Thanks," Sophie said, blushing.

Fitz cleared his throat and said, "Should we split up? Boys against girls?" Everyone nodded in agreement. They went out into the forest and split up. The girls decided to run all the way near a rock that bent over, creating a mini cave.

"I have an idea, but only if you agree to it," Linh said.

"What is it?" Sophie asked.

"What if we flirt with the boys and throw them off?"

"Let's do it!" Biana said with Sophie nodding in agreement.

"Biana gets Tam, Sophie gets Keefe, leaving Fitz with me," Linh said. The girls all nodded and ran off.

Biana's POV

After discussing the plan with the girls, I ran off to find Tam. It had been a few days since they had talked alone, so this was perfect. After a few minutes of running around, I saw him sneaking around, looking behind a waterfall.

I walked up to him and said, "I know we are in the middle of a game, but I really need to talk to you." Tam looked over, surprised to see her.

"What's wrong?" Tam asked with a concerned look on his face. There wasn't anything wrong, so she had to come up with something on the spot.
