SAGE

Sage Miller

"What the fuck are you doing?" He boomed from the outside of the ring. "Your left side is opened."

"I'm tired I need a break." I whined throwing a punch at my opponent.

"What was that? You called that a punch?" He scolded.

Since I told Styles I wanted to fight on Saturday. He's been pushing me to practice and I'll tell you. It ain't fun. Not one bit.

"Your ribs are wide open. If I was in that ring you'd be on your way to the fucking hospital with a broken rib." He fired harshly.

"If you were in this ring my fist would be in that big fucking mouth of yours." I fired back without thinking.

He was getting in my nerves and it wasn't even ten yet.

"I think I should get in there." He said angrily.

"I think you should." I fired not one bit scared of him. I know we've fought before but that was then. Before. Now I'm much more stronger.

"Your fucking smart mouth will get you in a lot of trouble." He warned.

"Oh I ain't afraid of you."  I replied without skipping a beat. "Get in here so I can beat your ass."

Im my mist annoyance, the fact that he is the Godfather and that he can end my life in a heartbeat, had slipped my mind completely.

The guy I was training with had left the ring a while ago and I didn't even notice because we were bickering.

"Watch who you're talking to." He threatened but I scoffed. I didn't even care. "You're an asshole but not this much. What crawled up your ass?"

He asked frowning.

"You. You fucking woke me up at 6 fucking clock. I mean who fucking does that. Then you do that shit and yell at me this early. On top of that I gotta be at the mall at 12 to fucking shop."

By the time I was done. I was breathing hard and I looked at Styles and he was amused with my annoyance.

I'm not a morning person. At all. I hate waking up before I necessary have to. I like sleep way too much.

"You're going shopping?" He asked amused and I groaned. "Obviously you hate it so ditch it."

He purposely ignored the part where I mentioned how he woke me up early. Very early.

It reminded me if Eve and when we were staying together, before she moved in with Styles and before she moved in with Wren.

I remember being so fucking irritated everyday when she'd wake me up at six thirty.

"I fucking can't. Even if I wanted to I can't." I told him. I didn't even know why I was telling him in the first place.

He hummed in some sort of understanding.

"You know what? I'm out of here." I murmured jumping down from the platform of the ring.

I already knew I was going to have a long fucking ass day at a fucking mall. I need sleep. As much sleep as I can get.

I was quickly regretting agreeing to come to the mall with Eve. I was too exhausted and we wouldn't stop even for a second. The bags in my hand were heavy and I was hungry.

Actually they weren't heavy but they were too many.

It's been three hours. And I was tired. Too tired.

Between training this morning and roaming the mall, I was beat.

"What about this?" She picked up a pink sparkling dress. "Or this one?"

To me they all looked the same with different colors. And why would she need so much clothes.

She didn't even give me a chance to answer before she went on and I had to follow her.

"Here Miss." The shop assistant gace her a dress she asked for a while ago.

"Thank you. Do you have a black version of this dress?" She asked her but I couldn't take it anymore.

I groaned and both their eyes turned towards me.

"I'm hungry and tired. I've been on my feet for three hours." I whined like a bitch.

"You just ate." Eve pointed out. I couldn't be blamed if shopping made me hungry and when I'm hungry I get grumpy.

"That was three hours ago." I told her grunting.

"Fine." She said with a huff. "I'm sure we can find somewhere to sit down."

Thank fucking God. I couldn't take any shopping without food. I know why men hate it.

When we go to the mall we know exactly what we want. We go in, get it then we're out.

But with women it never easy. They go to the same store six times each visit is thirty minutes and they end up buying nothing.

I don't know when she started liking shopping. We've got a bunch of bags some are even in my car.

"Since when do you like shopping anyway?" I asked when we walked out the store.

"I never hated it." She shrugged walking ahead.

"Yes you did." I argued.

"I never hated it. I just didn't have the luxury of doing it so saying I hate it was easier than saying I didn't have enough money."

She explained and once again in reminded that she's rich now. Before we were barely paying bills because she was always stubborn to use the money Aunt Lauren left her.

"Besides, Wren gave me a credit card. So why not abuse it." She beamed.

"Well, you could've asked one of your girlfriends." I grumbled.

"I wanted to hang out with my brother." She reasoned.

"If you wanted to hang out. You would've taken me to that theatre over there or invited me to brunch not drag me through this whole mall."

"Where's the fun in that? Besides Alora said she was busy and Toria is in Paris." She laughed at my annoyed expression.

"Whatever let's just get food?" I looked away and my eyes caught something I wish I never saw.

My whole mood changed in less than two seconds. It changed from annoyed to sour.

I just wish I never left that got damn store because I'm barely hanging on.

I just wanna march over there and ruin her whole fucking relationship.
