Sage's POV
Fluffing out my dress I look into the mirror one last time satisfied with my appearance thinking back to moment at the office.
After I broke the news to Xan he was surprisingly calm wishing me good luck. Normally he'd send me a text making sure I'd made it home but I assume he's just busy.
I can't help but be a bit disappointed with his nonchalant attitude. I just expected more of an reaction. I mean that is what the Tusi's said. I've should've know better then to listen to them.
Flashback
"Okay so the plan is we'll set you up on a date to make the Italian guys jealous."
"Kevin that's a terrible idea." I say sighing at his logic.
"Don't listen to her baby he's going to get so jealous then she's going to get dicked down!"
"What in the-"
"Go to the office and tell him!" Niko says sternly leaving no room for an argument.
"Fine, fine."
End of flashback.
I know, I know its selfish and wrong but it was their idea.
It doesn't matter anymore Sage you're going on a date with a entirely different man.
Kevin and Niko decided to set me up with Carson Belks who's apparently has a business like me.
Quite frankly his business isn't like mines seeing I knew nothing about him. Stop.
I brush off the feeling looking one last time into the mirror as i hear a knock at front the door.
Her outfit*
I assume its Carson so I happily open it with a big smile yet I'm met with Leo?
"Leo what are y-"
"Sage Xan just broke his leg and he needs someone to take care of him." He says frantically making me look at him weird.
Broken leg? I was just with him.
I look at his face trying to detect any lies but i fail to find them. Then I panic myself confused on what could have possibly happened to him that quickly.
"What do you mean his leg is broken Leo, was just with him?" I sass not hiding my disbelief in the situation. Leo just blinks at me. "How did it happen that quick anyways, and can't you take care of him I mean you are his best friend?"
