A New Flame (Sotam Fanfic)

Losing a win-Biana's POV

A/N: Apologies for not updating yesterday. But I wasn't feeling it. Writer's block. :P

Watching Sophie and Linh go into my brother's mind to fix them was nerve-wracking, but coming out, it was even worse. 

Linh was beyond ecstatic, but Sophie, she had a downcast look upon her face. 

"Sophie? What's wrong?"

She looked up, a tired look crossing her face. 

"It just drained me, that's all. I'm going to go back to the Healing Center now."

Smiling weakly, Sophie exited the room, but before I could follow her, I heard a cough behind me. 

It was Fitz, and he was sitting up in bed, holding his head. 

"FITZ!!!"

Running to him, I threw my arms around him, and he hugged me back. 

It was so good to have my brother back. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Linh. Thank you for saving me. I thought it was going to be Sophie, but the moment I felt myself again, I knew it was you."

Linh blushed. 

I was bringing Fitz some food that Mom had prepared, when I heard soft murmurs coming from his room. 

And that's when I saw Linh and Fitz, cuddling on his bed. 

Sophie is going to feel awful.

And then I squealed. 

They looked up, but I had vanished by then. 

"Bi-"

Linh shushed him. 

"She was going to find out anyways. Biana, we know you're there. And, yes."

"Yes what?"

I materialized. 

"Yes, we're-"

"Dating?"

I finished. 

They both nodded, smiling, and I dashed out, screaming for joy.

And went right back in. 

"Shoo Fitz!" 

"We have things to talk about!"

"But-"

"Go!"

"This is my  room though!"

"Ugh. Fine. Come on Linh! We have stuff to talk about!!!"

I dragged Linh by the arm to my room down the hall, excited to start girl  talk. 

"But, shouldn't we wait for Sophie?"

I hesitated. 

Linh doesn't know........

"You see Linh, I don't think Sophie will like these news."

"Why not?"

"Sophie, she......"

Realization flushed upon her face. 

"She likes him, doesn't she?"

I nodded, hating myself. 

"Yes."

"What do you think I should do?"

"Uh. Come here. I'll come up with something."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was late once we agreed on the best thing to do about our Sophie problem. 

"So, we'll tell everyone at the same time, but Sophie right before?"

"Yes....."

"Biana, I don't feel like this is the right thing to do. I think we should just tell her."

"Tell me what?"

It was Sophie, standing at my door, looking vastly puzzled, but nervous. 

Biana! Think!

"That I like Dex."

What?!

Well, I guess I do, but in that way? 

A warm sensation filled me. 

Maybe.

Sophie squealed, but paused. 

"What about Keefe?"

"He....... Uh........ While you and Linh were healing Fitz, we talked for a little bit, and...."

She brightened. 

"I see! Are you going to tell him?"

"Sophie, Fitz and I are dating."

It was Linh, and she looked very shocked with herself when we turned to look at her. 

Sophie looked crestfallen, but she tried to smile. 

"Okay...... I- I have to go."

She rushed out of the room, and I heard sobbing fading away. 

"Linh?"

She looked down, and whispered. 

"I have to go to. Tam, he's coming home, and I waited long enough now."

"Okay."

And then she was gone. 

And I was left alone, lonely and cold. 

I have Fitz back, but why does it feel like I've ruined all my friendships?

"Biana? Why did Sophie run past me? Crying?"

It was Dex.

A/N: Apologies for not updating until now.... I wasn't feeling well. But I'm better now! :)
