Author's Note: I'm super excited to publish this, because I know you're all kind of mad at me for the cliffhanger and I hope an early/extra long update redeems me! Thanks again to Anika and my first viewers from the fandom, TurtlesAreCool_ and _Lonley-Girl_ (I got the names right, didn't I?)

Cover/story contest is still going on! Share this with five or more people and private message me your alternate cover and/or story idea and I just might pick it! Last time I forgot to do rules, so I'll do them now...

Cover: Must have some kind of Sophitz OR generic romance picture, the title, and "A Sophitz Story" in smallish print at the bottom.

Story: Must uphold the ships that I have already established (Sophitz and more coming in this chapter), must not be too crazy, must be appropriate for eight or nine plus ages (no "language" especially. Language substitutes: crap, darn, etc. are ok.)

Okay, so since you're dying to know what happened to Biana, I should stop blabbing and get on to the story!

What Sophie saw wasn't possible. It just couldn't be.

Biana's eyes were closed, laced with makeup, but the sight she saw made Sophie want to be sick.

Keefe stood over her...

And...

And...

She just couldn't accept it. Couldn't.

They were kissing!

"Uh..." Sophie said, and their eyes shot open.

"Um..." Biana said.

"Um..." Keefe mumbled. "It's not what you think it is... Wait, are those crush cuffs?"

Sophie folded her arms. "I'll tell you if you tell me exactly what happened."

"Fine," Keefe said. "I got here early because I want to talk to Biana."

"He came and we talked a little," Biana said, "But I kind of noticed that he wasn't exactly saying what he really wanted to. So I asked him what he really wanted to say and he told me he had a crush on me ever since he was eight, but he didn't want it to get in the way of our friendship anymore if I didn't like him back."

"And then she grabbed me and kissed me. Now you know. So who're the crush cuffs from?"

Sophie sighed. "Fitz."

Keefe squealed like a little kid. "I knew it! Has he asked you to call him Fitzypoo yet?"

She rolled her eyes. "Keefe..."

"What?"

She was saved from answering by the abrupt entrance of Fitz. "Hi guys!" He didn't seem to suspect a thing, which was good because Biana gave her the death glare, like Don't you even think about telling him.

Hey, Fitz transmitted. Everything okay?

Yeah. I'm great. Your mother bombarded me with questions, and Grady's probably gonna go psycho when he sees the cuffs but... you know, just another day in the life of me.

Awesome. Tomorrow night, do you want to go with me to the beach? My family's making the trip, and my mom's like, "Invite Sophie!" I think she's kind of excited because she always brought  her dates there, so...

I'd love to go. Is Biana bringing Keefe?

That was... oddly specific...

Forget I said anything. She'll tell you later.

"Hey, can I join in on the Fitzphie flirting?"

"Keefe!" Sophie groaned.

The sound of double footsteps coming up the stairs interrupted their arguing. A second later, Tam and Linh finished arrived at the entrance to the bedroom, followed a few minutes later by Dex, then Marella.

"Let's go!" Biana said. "Let's get this Spin the Bottle on!"

Tam groaned. "Why, why why did I come?"

Linh smiled mischievously. "Because I made you."

"Wait- you knew we were playing Spin the Bottle?" He was shocked.

She splashed her brother playfully. "Of course! Oh Sophie, nice crush cuffs."

"You're- you're not jealous?" It was an awkward question, and Sophie instantly regretted it.

She shrugged. "I used to have a crush on Fitz, but now, no."

"Oh, come on," Biana said, dragging everyone into her room. A bottle was already set up, and plates of delicious mallowmelt sat on the ground around it. "Who wants to spin first?"

"Tam Tam Tam Tam pleaaaase Tam!" Linh begged.

"Nope!" he said.

"Okay, you are officially doing it." Biana said. Tam groaned and moved for the bottle.

It spun and spun and landed on....

Biana.

But she just laughed as she moved for Tam.

Why aren't you upset?  Sophie transmitted.

It's just a game, Sophie, she answered. It's not a real kiss, like I did with Keefe.

"How about we the spinner's name from a hat?" Sophie suggested. "That way we're not arguing."

"Okay," they all said, and Biana dashed to grab a lacy hat.

"Dex!"

The bottle spun and spun and spun and landed on...

"Linh!"

Dex and Linh blushed furiously. They kissed, and as they let go, everyone heard Linh whisper, "I love you," and saw Dex smile at her.

"Okay, Linh's spinning next. Sorry, Linh. Two in a row."

She spun. It landed on Keefe.

Biana and Dex tried her hardest to act impassive, which wasn't quite working as Keefe smirked and kissed Linh.

"Okay, Marella, you spin next."

She got Dex, and Linh could not keep herself from glaring at the two of them as they kissed each other.

"Sophie!"

Sophie groaned and spun the bottle. It spun and spun and landed on Dex.

She so did not want to kiss him, but he blushed and kissed her.

Author's note: These Spin the Bottles were chosen randomly. Unless they show signs of actual romance, these do not represent my ships.

"Guys," Sophie said, "Do you want to play truth or dare instead?"

"Yes!" Keefe said.

"Do you even know what that is?" Biana asked pointedly.

"No! But it has dare in it!"

"So basically Person A asks somebody to do a truth or dare," Sophie explained. "So say Person A picked Person B. If Person B said Dare, Person A would be able to tell them to do any dare and they would have to do it. If Person B said Truth, then Person A could ask them any question and they would have to answer honestly. And then, after Person B did it, they could pick anybody to ask Truth or Dare to."

"Let's do it!" Linh said.

"I'm in!" Keefe exclaimed.

Tam tugged on his bangs. "Fine. But only if I can go first."

"Okay, Bangs Boy," Keefe said. "You're the boss, you're the ruler of everyone, we got it."

"Keefe, truth or dare."

He smirked. "Dare."

"I dare you to kiss your number one crush."

Keefe's smirk was gone, but Biana seemed to be smiling a little.

Keefe grabbed Biana's hand, and everyone except for Sophie went "Oooh!"

Keefe reached for Biana and she smiled as he pressed his lips to hers.

They pulled apart, blushing furiously. "Okay, Fitz, Truth or Dare."

"Truth."

"Why do you like Sophie?"

They both blushed. "Well, her eyes are very unique and pretty. And she's smart and kind."

Keefe almost messed up "The Hair" as he rolled around on the ground laughing.

Hey, it's true, he transmitted. I love you, Sophie.

Love you too, Fitz. So I guess you know why I asked about Biana...

I didn't see that coming. Did she tell you?

No, I, uh... walked in on them kissing....

Oh.

"Guys, seriously, no secret Fitzphie flirting!" Keefe said, making them both blush. "Fitz, it's your turn."

"Okay... Sophie, truth or dare."

"Truth."

"Have you ever had an Elvin crush before me?"

"Well, all elves are way hotter than humans, but... I've never really had a crush like you."

"Aw, Foster, I can feel your emotions from over here. You obviously had a crush on me, before I took Biana."

"Keefe!" Sophie exclaimed as she blushed.

"Oh, yay, Foster's blushing! Let's make her blush more!"

"No! Besides, it's my turn. Marella, truth or dare?"

"Truth." She crossed her arms.

"Who is your crush?"

She turned away and mumbled, "Can I chose dare?"

"Oh, now we really want to know!" Keefe exclaimed.

"Okay, as long as you won't tell him... it's Jensi."

Sophie gasped. Biana dropped her mallowmelt and stared at Marella in shock.

Marella cleared her throat as Bian scooped her mallowmelt back onto the plate. "It's not a huge deal.  Biana, truth or dare."

"Truth."

"How many times, except for his dare, have you kissed Keefe?"

"Only once before. Tam, truth or dare?"

"Dare. Soooo dare."

"I dare you to light-leap directly into your parent's bedroom and say 'iiiiiiiiiiit's Tammy!' and then light-leap away. Take a video recorder!"

He sighed but turned his crystal and light-leapt. One minute later, he was back. He pulled out the video recorder from his pocket and showed them the footage. They couldn't stop laughing. Even Tam joined in.

"The expression on their faces-" Sophie gasped for breath.

Keefe was yet again in danger of messing up "The Hair".

"Priceless." Biana agreed.

"Okay guys, it's over. Keefe, truth or dare."

Keefe sat up, suddenly serious. "Dare."

"I dare you to either shave your hair or dye it glittery pink."

"NOOOOO! NOT THE HAIR!!! HOW WILL I LOOK ON MY DATE- nope, you never heard me say that."

Tam sat up. "A date? Tell me and you won't have to do either dare."

"Fine. Biana invited me to the beach tomorrow. Happy?"

"OH. MY. GOSH. BIANA YOU HAVE TO LET ME GIVE YOU A MAKEOVER!" Linh squealed.

"Okay, okay. Let's quit truth or dare and do makeovers!"

"No." Sophie said. "You guys can do makeovers and we can play..."

"Spin the bottle!" Keefe yelled.

"No, me and Marella are the only girls. That's soooooo not fair."

"Most embarrassing Foster moment?"

"No."

"Making Foster blush?"

"No! Actually, I should go."

"No way," Dex said. "How about we play 'Like, Love, Hate'?"

"How do you play?" Sophie asked.

"So you give somebody three names of people and they have to tell you which one they like, love, and hate. It gets kind of hard, like if you like or hate all three."

"Oh. So it's like Kiss, Marry, Kill?"

"What's that?" Marella asked.

"Same thing, except you have to say which one you would kiss, which one you would marry, and which one you would kill."

"That's dark," Tam noted.

"So're you, Bangs Boy. How about you start."

"Fine. Sophie, Like, Love, Hate. Linh, Councillor Alina, Keefe."

"Like Keefe... uh, love Linh, hate Councillor Alina."

"I am insulted, Foster," Keefe said. "I thought you liked me over Linh!"

"Linh is sweeter. It's not like, romantic love or anything. Dex. Like, Love, Hate. Me, Marella, Linh."

"Like Sophie, love Linh, hate Marella."

"Wha....?" Marella looked hurt.

"Sorry, Marella. It's just a game."

"Guys, I have to go." Sophie stood up. "It's probably dinnertime."

"It's three in the afternoon!" Keefe exclaimed.

"I have to go bathe the verminion... Fitz, walk me out?"

He stood, getting the message. "Of course."

"Have fun with the Fitzphie flirting!" Keefe yelled as they left.

"Sorry about that," Sophie said.

"About what?"

"Spin the bottle with Dex... that dare... everything..."

"Don't be sorry, Sophie. It wasn't your fault." And then he grabbed her and kissed her hard.

It was like three minutes after they broke apart, and her smiled his perfect smile at her as she light leaped away.

"Hi dad! Hi mom!" Sophie walked over to where they were wrestling with Verdi.

"Hi Sophie!" Edaline said. "How's everything?"

"Good. Can I go with Fitz to the beach tomorrow- I mean, go with the Vackers?"

Grady mumbled something and slammed Verdi into her enclosure. He glanced down at her wrists, raised his eyebrows, and muttered something about "too young for this madness".

After Grady cleaned up, he walked (read: marched) Sophie into her room. What followed was a loooong talk about boys and crushes and dating, but ended in "Okay, you can go."

This was going to be a very interesting weekend.

A/n: Did you like it? What do you think will happen?

I might take a break from the normal Sophitz plotline and do some other ship oneshots (on here). What do you guys think?
