"Linh?" said Sophie softly, sitting beside her sobbing friend, "What happened?" "Everything happened!" said Linh, throwing her hands up in the air and accidentally sending droplets flying. "One, Dex cheated on me. Second, I almost killed... Wait a second. It was you! You were the one he kissed!" Sophie stared at her for a second, then stood up and said, "Linh! You can't just accuse me, or Dex, like that! We kissed at least a year ago. Way before you guys were dating!" Linh stared back. Then she let out a sigh. "Everything's ruined. And it's all my fault."
Sophie sat back down. Her voice was soft as she laid a hand on Linh's shoulder, her anger gone. "If you need anything, I'm here." "Me too," said a gentle, accented voice, and Sophie's heart fluttered (stupid heart!) as Fitz appeared in the doorway. Although her heart wasn't quite so happy when he sat beside Linh and pulled her into a hug. "Everything will be fine," he whispered, "Just fine." Sophie stood up, disgusted with herself and, she hated to admit it, not so happy with Fitz either. "I'm gonna go find Dex," she said loudly, and stalked away.
"Hello?" Sophie said, peering into a dark hallway. Something shifted in the darkness. "Sophie?" Dex's voice sounded horrible, like his vocal chords had been turned inside out and back again. He gradually creeped into the light, and his cousin gasped. His face was pale and lifeless, like some sort of zombie brought back to life. His strawberry blonde hair was plastered to his forehead and had lost its usual vibrance. His eyes were just... dead. They radiated hopelesness and misery, and looked more like a light grey than bright blue. Sophie rushed forward and threw her arms around her cousin, planting a sisterly kiss on his cheek... Then leaped back when a voice said "Um, Dex?" Sophie looked up and turned bright red. Linh and Fitz were standing there, side by side, looking in disgust at Dex's hand... which was intertwined with Sophie's. Quickly disentangling herself from Dex's embrace, Sophie said, "Hey, Linh. Fitz. What's up?" "Dex," said Linh, training her silver eyes on him and wiping away a tear, "I don't think we can be together anymore. We just won't be able to trust eachother." Dex nodded. There was a moment of awkward silence before Fitz, eyes following the conversation like a tennis match, said, "Guys? We don't need to let this ruin our sleepover. We've still got about four hours left. Let's not waste them on drama, ok?" Everybody nodded and shoulders back, they marched into the room.
(SHORT CHAPTER! AGAIN! I'm so sorry. But I will try to elongate them next time. Meanwhile, I'm going to amp up the Sophitz... Big time).
