Boy reference? Because you know I haven’t let him into the Foster Fan
Club, right?”
Sophie rolled her eyes. “It’s an inside joke—and Linh made this for
me.”
“Yeah, well, it still breaks the fan club rules. As penance, I’m
getting you a tunic that says, Empaths Give Me All the Feels, and I
expect to see you wear it twice as often as Bangs Boy’s.”
Ro snorted. “Subtle.”
“Ridiculous,” Sophie corrected.
“I try,” Keefe told them as Sophie took his hand and let him pull her
slowly to her feet.
“You good?” he asked when she wobbled from the head rush.
No. But she wasn’t going to admit that, so she told him, “I’m up.”
“You are. It’s pretty amazing.”
“Isn’t it?” Elwin asked as he emerged from his office and helped
Sophie strap her arm into a sling. “Bring me back some butterblasts,
okay?”
“Done!” Keefe told him, bending his elbow to offer Sophie his arm,
and after one brief second, she let him lead her toward the door. “TO
THE SECRET CAFETERIA!”
The halls were just as eerie as they’d been the night before, and
Sophie tightened her grip on Keefe’s arm, trying not to think about
shadowflux. But she could still feel that unsettling chill in the air.
It might’ve been her imagination.
Or it might’ve meant Tam was there training.
Either way, she let out a relieved breath every time they turned
another corner and found the next corridor to be quiet and empty.
