SAGE

Sage Miller

It was Monday again and I was actually energetic yet I still managed to be moody and sarcastic.

The encounter with Alora left me bitter and angry.

I never knew I could be energetic, lazy, and moody at the same time but do I you know.

It's the comedy classic called my life. The Sage Miller Show. It has a nice ring to it.

It would've been fun if it didn't suck the life out of me but hey it wouldn't be my fucking life if it didn't.

Way to be fucking pessimistic in the morning, Sage. I am helping my mood ain't I?

"How's you in this fine morning?" Connor asked as we walked down the hallway.

Kate was following behind like she was told. I looked over my shoulder a few times and she really was trailing behind me.

He hasn't been around much the house the past weekend. He's been meeting someone a whole lot and he wouldn't fucking tell me who.

I had actually put effort on what i was wearing today. Actually no, I didn't.

I opted for my black sneakers, black pants and a white long sleeve.

"Just peachy." I grimace.

"You and Sebastian okay?" He asked and I clicked my tongue.

"You ask to many fucking question." I couldn't help but snap a bit.

I didn't wanna talk about him or even hear his name. I can't even look at him right now.

"Well I'm just concerned." We were now at my locker. His locker was just down a bit than mine so automatically we stopped at mine.

"Well me and Sebastian I jolly." I sarcastically said and Connor's mouth dropped.

"Sarcasm is becoming your second language this morning." He commented just as I got my locker opened.

He didn't mean it as an insult but I heard one so normally I throw one back.

"Yeah well idiocy is your personality." I sneered towards him.

I actually don't mean to snap bit I am who I am.

"Fuck you Sage. You're being an asshole right now and I don't have to deal with you." He said and turned to Kate who was behind me in her own locker.

He opened his mouth then closed it. He thought about what he wanted to say very carefully.

"I was gonna say maybe you'll have luck taming him but then I remembered who you are. So I'll say good luck with him. You're gonna need it." He said directed the words towards Kate.

Kate didn't say anything and just watched him leave and so did it.

Once he was out of view I slammed my locker shut and rammed my fist to it.

"Fuck!" I yelled slamming it harder this time and made a whole lot people jump.

I can never get a damn rest can I?

Kate was still standing besides me. When I turned around everyone was looking at me.

Kate suddenly stepped forward and shouted at everyone.

"What the fuck are you all looking at?" Everyone averted their eyes and looked everywhere.

"That's right, fuck off." She added and turned around in a sassy way then closed her locker.

I figured it was best to just go to class at this point.

I extended my hand for Kate to take and she did.

I then took her pink bag with the other hand.

The day went on forever and it was just lunch and yet I felt so exhausted.

I sat outside on the bleachers since Kate had practice during lunch and I didn't know where any of my friends where.

I'd be lying if I said I've seen any of them today. Well I did see Connor this morning but he too went mia on me.

This could be the worst Monday's of all time and that's saying something considering that I hate Monday's.

Its the whole waking up thing and going to school that's a turn off about Monday's. I don't know about anyone but that's the hardest day of the week.

Bored out of my goddamn mind, I shift on the bleachers and lie down facing up.

I use one hand to block the sun rays out of my eyes and the other hand I use it as a pillow.

Its nice since the sun isn't too hot and fall has already started.

I lie there and listen to the foot steps people are making as they walk up and down the bleachers.

Out of the blue a shadow covers my whole body. I thought it was Kate but I was surprised when I opened my eyes and Sebastian and Connor were standing in front of me liking down on me.

Confused and irritated to see both of them after they ghosted me, I sat upright fast.

I frowned at them and I guess I half expected them to sit down next to me and we could pretend nothing ever happened. But I don't think I'll ever forget what Sebastian did.

I lifted my head and looked at them. Sebastian's face was unreadable like it always is. Connor looked pissed.

"What do you want?" I was the first to speak.

I knew they weren't here to reconcile so why make small talk.

"I quit." Sebastian growled.

I didn't really understand what he meant until he threw the co-captain wrist band next to me.

My jaw dropped and his was clenching.

"If this is what you want so much you can have. I rather have a friend than some stupid tittle I don't even give two shits about." He added looking like he was about to rip someone's throat.

I still couldn't believe what he was doing. I didn't even know what to feel

"For the record I quit the team too." He told me and as if my jaw couldn't drop any lower, it did. "I hope it was worth it."

I couldn't believe he would just quit like that. I looked at the wrist bavmnd next to me and felt sick.

When I looked up Sebastian was gone and only Connor was standing in front of me looking like he was disgusted by me.

"I hope you're damn happy." He said and he too left.

I just watched as he ran to catch up with Sebastian and I felt like throwing up.
