Sage's POV :

Me and Nate were at the library, chatting, and just laughing to each other. Until Grace and Isaac came up, and sat next to us "Must be having a great time aren't you?" Isaac said, I laughed "Obviously"

Nathan then came up to us, and sat down "You know what's worse than third wheeling? Fifth wheeling" he said "Then go pull the first move, Nathan"

"It's not that easy, Sage" he said "Come on, just try, what's the worse that could happen" Sage said "He's already getting rejected, Sage" Grace mentioned

     "Oh, I'm sorry, Nathan" I apologize "No, It's uh, all good" Nathan said with a smile, he's probably the sweetest Walter ever, well, I know Isaac has been sweet to me but he's their cousin, he's a Garcia.

══ ≪ °❈° ≫ ══

         "So, um, I'll see you tonight?" I told Nate "Yeah, listen, my car is rigged, I can't drive it that far, let's just meet there?"
         "Oh, uhh, sure, I'll probably ask Cole to pick me up" I said smiling "New yorker number two we can't wait any longer, hop inside the car" Isaac said "Let her be, oh-em-gee" Grace said hitting him
         I looked at them and smiled, I gave Nate a kiss, and said goodbye. I walked in the car, sitting next to Grace and seeing Erin riding shotgun.
        "Erin? Hey, you're with us?" I ask "Yeah, I needed a ride and needed some like, more time with friends" She replies

         We all arrive back, home, I went upstairs and to the room, I hear my phone ring it was the hospital, I started panicking, I instantly answered them.
"Hello, uhh, is this Sage Valentine?"
"Yes, it's me"
"Sage Olivia Catherine Valentine, right?"
"That's me"
"So, uhh, your father is in great recovery, honestly it was a such a miracle, he was losing so much blood, and couldn't like move, until today, he's as stable as possible"
"Oh my- Oh my gosh, this- this, this is amazing"
"Hey, listen, we moved him to Colorado, so you can visit him anytime, sweetie"
"Oh my word, I'm so happy, thank you" I said tearing up in Joy, I hang up, and I put my Phone down and started tearing up more.
Isaac then went inside the room "Hey, Grace just went home and-" He began, but then saw my crying "Woah, what happened to you?"
I then ran up to him and gave a hug "My dad is surviving" I said "What? That's amazing" he said laughing and hugging me.

         We got to the hospital, and went to the lady at the desk "Hi, I'm Sage Valentine, I'm here to see Joseph Valentine, he's my uhh, father"
"Ok, how is this guy you're with related to him if he's going to see him too?"
"Uhh" Isaac began "He's my brother, adoptive, he might not be his biological dad, but he's been there his entire life, and to the point he felt like he was his biological dad, his name is Isaac Garcia"
"Yeah, I just want to really see him"
"Just sign these forms and we'll have a doctor to assist you"
We put our signatures on the paper, and had a doctor to assist us. Me and Isaac enter the room seeing my dad having a rest.
I came up close, and kneeled down "Dad..." I said softly, he turned to me, and I have never been happier seeing him happy.
"Sage...is that you?"
"Yes, dad, it's me"
         He gave me a smile slowly, it made me cry even more, I was as happy as he was "Who is this lovely young man?"
         He must be talking about Isaac, I smiled then rolled my eyes, then looked at Isaac he was smiling and laughing too.
          He then came up to my dad and introduced himself "Uh, Isaac Garcia, Sir" he said, holding his hand out for a handshake "God bless you, son"
          "Is your father Mike Garcia?"
          "Ye-ye-yeah, he is, how do you know him?"
          "Ahh, we were friends, we were a group of three, until, Mike had to go to the military, and Ben died"
         "Ben?"
         "Benton, Benton How-"
         "Benton Howard, Jackie's father" I interrupted, both me and Isaac looked at each other "You were friends with my dad?"
         "Yeah, he was a feisty one, always wanting to get some chicks"
         Me and Isaac were sitting down, as my father mentioned 'always wanting to get some chicks' we both laughed, I lightly hit Isaac with my elbow "Now we know where you got your personality from"
        Isaac laughed "He was a blind one, he couldn't see the one who was right for him"
       "What do you mean?"
       "Mike...was a stubborn kind of guy, you know? Because, he was always so inlove with every girl he sees, except that one girl, Cecelia, Cecelia was his friend, they bonded together, and practically did everything together. Cecelia kept talking about how inlove she is with Mike to Ben and I, he just could see the signs. He ended up being inlove with someone else, someone who wasn't for him, your mother, Georgia, he kept telling us 'I found the one' thats right, he married and had kids with Georgia, but what did she do? Leave him! And I don't know, Cecelia loves him so much that she won't stop loving him"
         "Oh..." Isaac said "Are you two dating?" Dad asked "No!" We both yelled, dad kept laughing to the point he started coughing "Oh, dad, here have some water"
        "We have different significant others" Isaac explained
         "Yeah, I'm dating Nate, he's dating Grace"
         "Nate? Didn't he cheat on you with Sara?"
         "Oh, Dad, I'm sorry, I lied, we actually had a mutual break up, and I know you don't like mutual break up's because they're so sad, so I made up a sob story, then Nate showed up to Colorado and surprised me then got back together"
         "That's so sweet"
         "Dad...I know who murdered mom" I said, I then looked at Isaac who's eyes widened. I didn't want to say it was Sara, but it's my mom's murderer, I can't just let her get away with this.
         "Who?"
         I bit my lip, and looked at Isaac, then held my fathers hand "Sara..."
        "Sara?"
        "Yeah, I'll try to gather proof before we sue her"
        "Please do, honey"
        "Anyways, get well soon, Dad, I need to go now"

Me and Isaac stepped out of the hospital, I checked my phone, oh no...10 missed calls from Nate.
       I bit my lip, and closed my eyes, he then sent me a message

"What happened?"
         "I forgot I had a date with Nate..."

1 new message from Nate💛

I then opened the message...Oh no...
