Sage POV 3 weeks later
Okay so I may or may not have developed a small tiny little crush on Denise. "Sage can we go get ice cream?" I looked down at Chris to see her with a tub of ice cream. "You already have one?" I told her and she shrugged. "Yeah but I want a different flavor." I sighed then nodded. "Okay." "Can I meet your girlfriend?" I choked on my juice and spit it out.
What is this gremlin on about???
"What girlfriend?" I asked after wiping my chin. "The girl who drops you off." Chris said innocently and I shook my head. "That's not my girlfriend, she's just a friend." I clarified and she hummed not believing me so I rolled my eyes. I have no reason to lie especially to my little sister. There was a knock at the door so I went to go answer it. I closed it right back and went to my room.
The audacity was outrageous honestly. I sat on my bed thinking about everything. Thinking is all I ever do if I'm being honest, just thoughts running through my mind 24/7.
I need my hair done immediately.
Rose(Denise)
Tryna do my hair?
Depends, are you paying.?
Not in cash😉
Anyways, sure what time.?
🤷🏾♀️
I sucked my teeth seeing as she left me on read.
"Sage!" I rolled my eyes and prepared myself to get yelled at.

"It smells good in here, what are you cooking?" I asked Denise as I followed her to the kitchen. "Steak and shrimp tacos. You want some?" I nodded eagerly and she chuckled. I was always down for some food, especially home cooked food because I didn't really like fast food too much because it was greasy. And some food chains aren't really good anyways. Once you eat fast food 24/7 it starts to taste weird and different.
"Are you allergic to anything?" I shook my head no. Well at least not to my knowledge but if I was oh well. I took a piece of shrimp from the pan and my god! The flavors, the intensity, good wasn't even the word to describe it. I was about to take another one when I got hit with the spatula. "Ow! Why would you do that?" I questioned shaking my hand.
"Don't stick your hand in my pan without washing them." She told me going to run it under some water. I nodded not wanting to get popped again. I went to her room waiting as she finished cooking while watching supernatural on my phone. When I was younger and had just started out watching supernatural I was always on Sam's side and found dean unreasonable. But now it's like I get dean and see it from his side, I mean like he lives his whole life for Sam, just for sam to be ungrateful?
See me personally...
Like 30 minutes later Denise came in and gave me a plate then started doing my hair. "Man yo brother is stressing me out fr." "That's funny because he said the same thing about you." I scrunched my face up. "Why? I'm obedient!" I exclaimed and she stopped doing my hair to look at me and I nodded.
"Well I can be?!"
"Girl please, how long until your big fight?" Dee asked and I raised my eyebrows in surprise. "How do you know about that?" I could've sworn Shawn told me to keep my mouth shut about it? "I have my ways, how are you feeling?"
Horny.
"Oh?"
I said that out loud?
"Yes you did." She said laughing and I slouched down embarrassed. God please strike me down right now. "We're just going to ignore what I said, but I am feeling nervous." I answered her question still embarrassed. "You'll be fine, if you want I'll be there to cheer you on." Denise said and I smiled. She'd most definitely distract me because Denise just has that effect on me.
I could be in a room with a thousand people and I'd still be searching for her. Which I find crazy and weird because not even 4 weeks ago I couldn't care less about her. "I think I'd like that." I responded.

"Just let me know when you want me to drop you off." Denise told me and I nodded. "Can I use your charger? I forgot mines." I asked and she pointed to it. Sitting my phone down after plugging it up I started bothering Dee.
"Sage."
"Is gone! I'm Batman." I said lowering my voice and staring off into the sunset through her window. "Please shut the fuck up." Dee told me and my jaw dropped. "Not you being mean to me! My feelings are hurt." I folded my arms and she stuck her lip out. "Awwww poor baby."
"Yeah we're done here." I told her dropping the act. "Is there any more tacos?" I asked still hungry and she side eyed me. "You've eaten 10 already surely you can't still be hungry?" I pursed my lips and shrugged. "There should be like 2 more left." I nodded and looked at her expectantly. "Oh you want me to go get them for you?" I nodded and she shook her head no.
