Keeper Of The Lost Cities... What'll Happen?

Three Little Words

back in Atlantis in Sophie's POV

"so... Sophie? do... um, do you love me too?" Fitz stammered at me. I didn't know what to say. I looked at him and he looked like he was going to literally die. "okay, defeating the Neverseen wasn't as painful as this," he mumbled. I had to be honest with him.

"listen, Fitz," I started.

"I knew it, I really did mess things up. I'm sorry Sophie," he whined.

"no, no, please let me talk. The moment I saw you, I was terrified. You were a total creep. And honestly, I wouldn't have gone with you but you were just so cute and charming that I did. And I'm so happy I chose to because I wouldn't be here now. With all of you. And I'm so grateful for that. But more importantly, I wouldn't be your girlfriend and that makes me so happy. So, yes, Fitz, I love you too," I told him. He smiled so big then kissed me and I realized he was crying too. I wiped tears off his face, laughing.

"who knew three little words would be so important," he chuckled. I smiled and kissed his cheek.

"let's get back to the others before Marella burns your whole house down," I teased.

"smart," he said and we left Atlantis and went back to Everglen.

when we went up to the room, everyone was doing anything but burning the house down. Tam and Biana were in one corner kissing sweetly and holding each other. Dex and Linh were sleeping and cuddling in each other's arms. Then there was Keefe and Marella. They were passionately making out and I couldn't help but laugh a little.

"guess we missed a lot," I whispered to Fitz. He nodded, smiling.

"Looks like it's been an eventful couple of days and it'll continue that way," he told me. I cocked a confused eyebrow.

"huh?"

"my parents are throwing another party tomorrow, I don't know," he mumbled.

"great," I laughed slightly but was also nervous.

"don't be scared," he said, reading my mind. literally, I don't know but at least figuratively.

"were you reading my mind?" I asked.

"no, I don't need to be a telepath to know your anxiety about parties," he smiled at me and kissed my forehead. "but you're going to be okay."

"why?"

"because you have me. and let's just be 'us' for right now," he whispered pulling me to the ground to hold me in his arms. I sighed, content in his arms and soaking in this moment. it was the only place I wanted to be and I let this moment just... happen.

A/N
