Sorry for the wait! Welcome to chapter eleven! Otherwise known as chapter "I'm sick of filler chapters, let's add some drama"

smellynellie9: Ugh. I hate Sophitz. HATE. IT. But, because I am such an amazing person (more like desperate for fans lol) I will add some Sophitz here! As much as I can manage without my brain exploding. I'm trying to make this less about the love triangle because MALLOWMELT I AM SO SICK OF IT!

L: Way too nice. What did the fandom do to deserve her? Yeah... I'm just stalling because I've already written the two chapters where stuff gets crazy but I feel like I'm going to get flamed. Yeah, thanks for reminding me! They will this chapter!

FOSTERKEEFE4LIFE: I DON'T KNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWW! Lol, me too. Thanks!

FOSTERKEEFE4LIFE: YES SOPHIE LISTEN TO FOSTERKEEFE4LIFE!

DangerousPie1: Blech Sophitz. Me too. Awwwwwwwwwwww THANKS! You're... *grins at Glitterbutt23* SATISFIED!? Lol hamilton. Thanks! Yay Dexella!

Cay-Cay: Lol, Bo and Ro arguments. I said Bo's name first because HELLO! EVER HEARD OF THE ALPHABET!? Lol. Mrs Gigantor! Yay! Sorry Keefe. Sorry wall. Linh... what has the fandom done to deserve you? You're too nice. Thanks! It's fine.

LunaLovegood397: Thanks! I'll try.

So... yeah... feel like I'm going to get flamed for this chapter, but I LITERALLY CANNOT WRITE ANOTHER FILLER CHAPTER WITHOUT MY BRAIN EXPLODING.

Warning: They're all really OOC in this chapter. Sorry. And it's pretty short. Sorry again. (Not even a thousand words)

A few weeks later, Sophie was FINALLY almost out of the Healing Center. "One more dose of limbium," Elwin said. "Then you can leave."

"Yay! You're so close!" Dex said encouragingly.

Sophie smiled. "But then I'll probably come back in like two days, so should we really celebrate?"

Dex shrugged. "It's an excuse to have mallowmelt."

"Well, if you're planning on throwing a party, throw it soon so I don't get hurt AGAIN before the party," Sophie joked. Dex laughed. "Any luck on Operation Cracker?"

"Sophie, you ask me this every time. I think you're getting a bit obsessive."

"ANSWER THE QUESTION!"

"Nothing," Dex sighed.

Sophie groaned. "It's been two weeks! I can't keep this from Fitz forever!"

"Then don't," Dex said like it was obvious.

"What?" Sophie asked incredulously. "If I tell him he'll break up with me!"

"If he'd break up with you over a piece of paper, he's not worth it."

"Yes he is!"

"All right. You can continue trying to make yourself 'matchable'. But you'll have to do it without my help."

"You promised you'd help me." Sophie said, a little hurt.

"Well," said Dex, "You see, I'm beginning to have some minor doubts about helping my best friend achieve something I'm very against."

Sophie immediately felt like an insensitive jerk. How could she have forgotten about Dex's troubles with matchmaking?

"Wondercracker," Dex answered. At Sophie's look of confusion, he added "You looked confused, probably about how you could forget. It's because of Wondercracker. You were so obsessed with Fitz that you basically forgot about the rest of our problems."

"I was not-"

"You forgot about literally every problem matchmaking has. Matchmaking was the reason I had to eat lunch in my alchemy classroom and didn't have any friends before you came. Matchamaking was the reason Brant joined the Neverseen and killed Jolie. And Forkle said you were supposed to fix the matchmaking system! How are you supposed to do that if you just go along with it! Is being Fitz's girlfriend really worth people suffering?"

"I'm really sorry, Dex. I didn't think, really. I just wanted Fitz to like me. I just wanted to be normal," Sophie apologized.

"You can be normal. You can have boyfriends without a stupid list. You can be happy without a stupid list that causes more problems than it solves. And since when have you done the wrong thing to be 'normal' or 'fit in'? You don't discriminate against multiple births or the talentless just because everyone else does? What happened to the girl who said 'I'd rather be punished for making the right decision than live with the guilt of making the wrong one the rest of my life.'? Is that girl just being replaced by this lovesick teenager who cares more about boys than doing the right thing?"

"Wow, Dex. I-"

"Don't apologize." Dex cut her off. "Just fix it."

Sophie nodded. "I'm not going to register."

Dex smiled. "I knew you were still a good, independent person. You just needed me to knock some sense into you."

"I'm going to give up on figuring out my biological parents. Honestly, I don't really care that much. And I-" Sophie took a deep breath. "I'm going to tell Fitz everything."

"It'll be fine. If he really cares about you he'll be okay with it. And if not, he doesn't deserve you." Dex reassured her.

"Okay."

"It'll be fine," Dex said again. "It's not that hard to get over a crush, even if it doesn't turn out well. I know from personal experience," Dex reassured her. "You'll find someone else who's better for you."

"Like who?" Sophie asked.

Dex grinned wickedly, but thankfully (for Sophie anyway) whatever he was going to say was interrupted by a knock. Dex groaned and opened it.

"Hi, Sophie!" said a boy Sophie was so not ready to see. She forced herself to look at him.

"Hey, Fitz." She said weakly.

CLIFFHANGER! I've already written next chapter though. So you won't have to wait to long. The length of the wait depends entirely on how many reviews I get. I'll update as soon as I get... uh... 7 reviews! So review if you want next chapter!
