Life As A Spy

Chapter 29

{Isaac's Pov}

I feel awful.
I've never gotten rejected before and from Sage it hurts even more.
What did she mean, she always hurts people?
She wants to brush it off like it never happened, but I can't.
It really meant something to me.
I guess I won't be going to the dance with her either.
I walk up to Saira and say, "Would you like to go with me to the Winter Formal?"
She squeals and yells, "Yes!"
"Oh! We need to match. Wear a pink tie and I need a light pink corsage," she says and runs to her car.
Probably to pick out her dress.
Ugh, I wish Sage had said yes.
Saira hangs all over me.
I guess some dreams aren't meant to be.
I get to the agency and the girls aren't there.
I find a note saying they were going to meet us at home.
Maybe it's for the best.
No awkwardness.
After training, the guys and I head to the mall.
We need tuxs.
Well, Garrick and I do.
I'm not sure if Brandon does.
I think he's regretting breaking up with Clara now.
He doesn't look happy, but it's because of his own stupidity though.
He needs to learn how to trust.
I pick out a white tux like the one from Paris.
I miss Paris...

~Sage's Pov~

I drive to the garden at the edge of town.
I always come here when I'm confused.
I hear rustling after a while but ignore it.
Then I start singing...

S:
If there's a prize for rotten judgement
I guess I've already won that
No man is worth the aggravation
That's ancient history--
Been there, done that!

Someone starts singing and I look around and see no one.
Maybe it's just in my head.

C & M:
Who'd'ya think you're kiddin'
He's the Earth and heaven to you
Try to keep it hidden
Honey, we can see right through you
Girl, ya can't conceal it
We know how ya feel and
Who're you're thinking of

S:
No chance, no way
I won't say it, no, no

M & C:
You swoon, you sigh
Why deny it, uh-oh!

S:
It's too cliche
I won't say I'm in love

I thought my heart had learned it's lesson
It feels so good when you start out
My head is screaming get a grip, girl
Unless you're dying to cry your heart out, oh

I think I hear someone, but when I turn my head no one is there.

M & C:
You keep on denying
Who you are and how you're feeling
Baby, we're not buying
Hon, we saw ya hit the ceiling
Face it like a grown up
When ya gonna own up
That ya got, got, got it bad

S:
No chance, no way
I won't say it, no, no

M & C:
Give up, give in
Check the grin, you're in love

S:
This scene won't play
I won't say I'm in love

M & C:
You're doin' flips
Read our lips
You're in love

S:
You're way off base
I won't say it
Get off my case
I won't say it

M & C:
Girl, don't be proud
It's ok, you're in love

S:
Oh...
At least out loud
I won't say I'm in love

M & C:
Sha la la la la
Ahhh

-Morgan's Pov-

We start singing with Sage.
She thinks it's all in her head, because she doesn't question where it's coming from.
She almost catches us once.
We leave when she finishes the song.
I hope she knows what to do.
When we get back home, the guys are eating dinner.
I really want to ask Isaac what happened, but I know better.
I'll ask Garrick later.
We finish eating one awkward dinner.
Brandon and Clara won't talk to each other and Isaac is quiet for once.
Garrick and I give each other a sad look.
Finally, I've had enough, "Okay guys, you two broke up, but you should at least talk. And you, I don't know what happened, but don't mope around. It's depressing."
I sit back down and they stare at me.
I needed that.
Isaac actually looks better and Clara and Brandon start talking a little.
"Nice work," Garrick says smiling.
After we finish dinner, Sage comes in.
"Where have you been?" Clara asks innocently.
"You should know. You followed me," she says and smiles at our shocked faces, "What? I get an alert when you use the tracker."
Clara and I look at each other.
Busted.
She eats dinner and goes outside, while the rest of us decide to watch a movie.

{Isaac's Pov}

Sage goes outside while the rest of us sit on the couch.
The only thing on is Beauty And The Beast.
"You guys don't have to watch it," Morgan says.
"A person who doesn't like Disney cannot be my friend," I say. (A/N: truest line in this story)
Eventually, everyone goes upstairs tired.
I like this movie, so I want to finish it.
The ballroom scene comes on and for once, I don't have Sage to dance with.
Then, I hear someone say, "Don't think I won't dance with you."
I turn and see Sage.
I smile and she helps me up.
Her head is on my shoulder and my hand on her waist guiding her.
I wish we could do this at the dance.
