A.N. I don't own Keeper or the characters, but the plot is mine
Biana pulled out the notebook much more slowly than she needed to. Sophie was sure Biana was only making her do this to get back at her for not telling her sooner about the kiss. Sophie got up and walked over to Biana's oversized desk and began to root though all of the glittery pens to try and find her favorite green feather pen. When she finally found it, Sophie let out a long sigh and walked over to where Biana was sitting on her bed.
"You realize that in this whole notebook, this is the first entry that talks about more than a crush, right? And most of those times it was my brother…ew."
Again, Sophie wanted to sigh, but she repressed it in an attempt to please Biana. After all, Sophie didn't usually let Biana be as girly around her as she probably would've liked, so she felt like Biana had earned it.
Sophie opened the book and flipped through all the pages of their girly rants. Most of Sophie's ad consisted of talking about things Fitz had said to her that just made her heart flutter… those were the days of the past where Sophie had still thought Fitz was the most perfect boy in the world, but when she flew across the ocean with Keefe, something just clicked into place.
When she finally got to an empty page, Sophie slowly and deliberately moved her pen across the page as she wrote, "I finally did it. I finally kissed a boy. Like, in real life. Not just in a dream. It went something like this…" and she went on to explain exactly what had happened. "It was like something from a dream. I've wanted to kiss Keefe, for so long, that when it actually happened, I couldn't think, and music started playing in my head, and I wished it could go on forever, but then Fitz was there, and now I just don't know…"
Then Biana spoke, saying, "You're never going to be a writer with run-on sentences like that, but nice descriptions. Come on, I think Keefe is waiting for you." That snapped Sophie out of her reverie, and she bolted down the stairs towards Alden's office. Biana must have noticed where Sophie was headed because she shouted, "Alden isn't home! He's helping with something involving the goblins."
Sophie paused, wondering she should do with the letter, and why Alden would need to help with the goblins. They were usually quite peaceful, and didn't usually get involved in dangerous business. Keefe's laughter could be heard from all the way across the house. It was times like these that Sophie dearly wished that she could legally read his mind.
"How did you know I was going to see Alden? Were you…" Biana looked away sheepishly.
"I just wanted to see if the rumors were true. I didn't know if you guys would act differently, so I vanished. How was I supposed to know that you would find some secret letter?" Biana asked defensively. Sophie just gave her a look that shot daggers and walked into the giant dining room.
She pulled the note out of her ankle pocket and laid it on the table so Biana could see. "I don't get it. Keefe is an only child, but this note says him and his sister. I don't think Keefe noticed it, but we have to keep him from noticing it. What if that's the secret? What if it was just a typo? We don't want Keefe thinking anything he shouldn't be thinking."
Keefe ran into the room holding some sort of fabric thing in the air, and Fitz ran in not far behind. "Keefe! Give those back!" Fitz said as he leaped towards Keefe in an attempt to get the things back.
"You don't get any underwear until you tell me what it is you didn't want to mention. You can't lie to the Keefester!" Keefe shouted as he jumped out the nearest window and took off towards the grove of trees by Everglen.
Fitz looked as if he was about to give chase, but thought better of it. "Sorry you have to see this, but Keefe refuses to let me have any personal thoughts, and when he touched my hand and felt my emotions, he wanted to know what I was thinking about," Fitz said in an apologetic tone.
"What were you thinking about, Brother of Mine?" At this Sophie and Biana both giggled. They had become quite fond of the human show, Doctor Who, and liked to confuse their friends with references.
"You know we'll find out eventually, so you might as well spill before we have to squeeze it out of you…" Sophie said ominously.
Fitz's face turned as red as the strange plants the gnomes were picking, and he ran off.
