SEVEN MINUTES IN A CLOSET . . .

They heard the click and suddenly they were engulfed in darkness. She heard some footsteps then suddenly, the lights flickered on. Fitz was still a shade of red but she knew that the only thing that could calm him down was her. So she walked over to where he was leaning against the wall and sank next to him. Then, he wrapped his arms around her and they walked over to a beanbag and they sat down. They just layed there in comfortable silence. Then he whispered ¨I´m sorry¨ She turned to look at him and said ¨Why? Are you the one flirting non-stop, trying to get alone time? No. But thank you for putting a stop to her madness. . . . Oh! I never told you this but one day, after the engagement, she stormed into the room, looking like she had been crying. She said ¨Stay away from my Fitz. He is mine.¨ Then, she growled at me. Then walked out. It was madness.¨ Fitz chuckled then kissed her. He picked her up and spun her around. ¨How did I get such an amazing girlfriend? Not some wannabe like Linh.¨ They just layed there in silence. Then, the door opened. They just continued to lay there. Then, Dex jumped out and yelled ¨BOO!¨ They sat up totally unfazed. Biana came in and yelled for them to freeze. Biana snapped a bunch of pictures and then Tam came in and told her to calm down which seemed to do the trick. Then, Wylie came in sorta looking embarrassed but he didn't say anything. Which Sophie was grateful for. Then Linh came in, still in her dress, but her mascara was all down her face. Almost as if she had been crying. Wylie left the room as soon as Linh came in. She gathered all of her tears, then turned her back to the rest of us. Communicating to the water. When she turned around, water covered her dress, replacing it with a very fancy dress. Then the water whisked her hair into an updo, (complicated bun). Finally, the water washed away all of the mascara and purple makeup, replacing it with more gold. She then turned to Fitz and asked ¨Do you like my wedding dress? I did it in honor of you.¨ She gave him a smile which he did not return. ¨Linh, forget it. I do not love you and I never will! But to make things worse, you have a boyfriend sitting out there that is under the impression that you love him. Which you obviously don't. So leave me and my fiance, which is not you. Leave me and my fiance . . . alone!¨ She looked over and smiled at Fitz. He was doing so much for her. She leaned over and kissed him on the cheek. He wrapped his arms around her protectively. Linh blushed beet red. Biana, Tam and Dex all made their way over to stand behind them. Biana stuck her nose in the air and said ¨Wylie is welcome to stay if he wants, but you . . . are no longer welcome. So you can pack your bags and walk all the way to the door.¨ She smirked and Fitz nodded. So Linh moped all the way over to Biana´s room and packed her bag. After a good 7 minutes, Wylie came into the closet. ¨I´m so sorry about Linh. I . . . didn't know that she was a maniac who had an obsession with Fitz. She asked me to walk her out but I told her no. Thank you for the invitation to stay. If it still stands . . .¨ He trailed off. Biana, Tam, Dex, Fitz, and Sophie all nodded. He smiled at them. Dex said that he had to go and left with a wave. ¨So, I'm guessing that means no more 7 minutes in a closet?¨ Everyone laughed and they walked back to Biana´s room. They couldn't decide what to do. Then Fitz said that they should play another human game. He asked Sophie what she thought. She hugged him and replied ¨I love that idea!¨ Sophie decided they should tell Alden and Della about what had happened and that then they could play freeze tag. She told them she would explain the freeze tag game after they told Alden and Della what had happened. They rushed down the stairs; Sophie falling in the process (and Fitz had to catch her) They walked into the living room seeing Alden and Della together and they had confusion and worry on their faces. When they saw them walk in they asked what had happened. Della said that ¨They just saw a very sad and angry Linh stomping out the door. Sophie and Fitz sighed, telling the group they would explain. Everyone sat down and they started to explain . . . Once she was done, Della and Alden sighed ¨I agree, she does need to understand that. And Sophie, I´m sorry that all of this happened simply because you love Fitz.¨ Fitz blushed and Tam whispered something in his ear which made him laugh. Sophie, who was sitting next to Fitz, asked what Tam said and he put a finger to his mouth signaling he would tell her later she nodded. Her mind wandered to the wedding. Della and Alden seemed to notice this so they nodded and let them go. She transmitted to Fitz Is it okay if I ask Biana to be my maid of honor? He responded Of course! So, she walked over to where Biana was standing and said ¨Hey Biana! I have a question. Do they have MaidsMaids of Honor in the Elvin world?¨ Biana replied while still keeping her eyes on whatever it was she was doing ¨Yeah. Why?¨ Sophie smirked ¨Well, I was thinking , do you want to be my Maid of Honor?¨ Biana dropped what she was holding and I realized that it was a notebook full of wedding prep ideas. She smiled to herself. Biana squealed and screeched ¨YES!¨ Fitz came up behind them on the stairs and said ¨Well, I guess that means this wedding is happening soon.¨ Sophie said ¨Why?¨ Fitz sighed ¨Because . . . Biana is your Maid of Honor so she will be making sure this wedding happens in less than a month.¨ She released a breath she didn't know that she was holding. Fitz seemed to notice this ad he asked ¨What's wrong?¨ I sighed. ¨Nothing.¨ He gave me a look that I couldn´t ignore. ¨Fiiiiine! The truth is that when you said that this wedding is happening for real, I thought you were having doubts after Linh. I mean, she is so pretty, and smart, and kind an-¨ He cut me off and said ¨Sophie Elizabeth Foster, I love you. As for Linh, she probably dressed up just to impress me. She looks ugly. Second, she is stupid to think that I would love anyone other than you. Lastly, she is so not nice, she said a ton of mean things to you and I will not stand for that.¨ He smiled and grabbed her hand. He pulled her into a hug and they just sat there in comfortable silence. Then, they heard some not-so-quiet footsteps
