Insecure ||10k/Z Nation Fanfiction|| [ON HOLD]

12 - Awake

+ S A G E ' S P.O.V +

Waking up to rain pouring on your head while you fall on the concrete of the rooftop- is not what I would've liked.

But guess what?

I got it.

"What the fuck?!" I whisper-scream to myself, standing up quickly and gathering my stuff and running back inside.

"Jesus," I shiver, "cold, cold, cold, cold," I chant while walking down the short staircase and into the hall where everyone is probably resting peacefully.

I hear a gasp and quick footsteps- and before I know it, I'm engulfed in warm arms that send sparks throughout my small body.

I frantically look up and see 10k brushing my hood back incredulously, as do I.

"T-T-Tommy!" I stutter, latching my arms around his neck (with much struggle) and pulling him into a tight hug, and he returns it.

"Oh my god- Cassandra told my that you ran away- why?" He pants, his deep voice rumbling every bone in my body with joy.

"Run away? What? I was on the roof- the last time I spoke to her she accused me of being a negative benefit to the group." I reply.

"Why did Cassandra lie?" He ponders, his arm latched around my shoulders as we walked into the kitchen.

A plan shoots through my brain.

"Tommy," I whisper, pulling him back behind the corner more, "stay here and listen- I want you to hear what happens when you're not here."

He slowly nods.

I nod in confirmation before turning the corner, and their heads turn to me again.

"Look who came back- little miss crybaby."

I shrug and walk over to the fridge- which works- and I take out a slice of sandwich.

"What are you doing?" Murphy asks, grabbing my forearm. I whip around, dropping the food and swiping my dagger out.

"Touch me again and I'll slit your throat." I threaten, forgetting completely about 10k.

"Whatever," Murphy continues to murmur profanities under his breath while walking off.

"So did you hear?" I hear Cassandra's snooty voice, "10k woke up and immediately told us how terrible you were in bed."

I let out a loud laugh, falling over to clutch my stomach while my other hand holds my body weight up with the help of the fridge.

"Oh my- oh my god-- imagine! Imagine someone actually doing that!" I cry out, wiping my eyes of fake tears before straightening my back and giving her a blank look.

"We haven't slept together, if you must know, and yes- I do plan on it- and no, you cannot sleep with him. Goodbye." I retort, pushing past her and out of the kitchen.

"Sage!"

I turn my head, sipping on orange juice box as I look at Warren.

"I'm sorry about their behavior."

"Nah, it's alright." I reassure her, patting her back before spinning around and intertwining my hand with Tommy's, who's eyes are wide with shock.

I pull him up the steps, and into the ruggity room that I've had to use.

"You chose this?"

"More like got stuck with it." I mumble, sitting on the dusty floor.

He frowns and picks me up- bridal style- and carries me throughout the hallways before opening a rather Royal looking room- which has me speechless.

"I'll be right back. Change into this and don't let anyone in, okay?" 10k asks, softly caressing my cheek. I smile and nod, taking the outstretched shirt from his hand.

He leaves the room, closing the door after himself, and I stand up- taking off all my clothes except my bra and panties. I slip the shirt on- recognizing it as Tommy's. I lay back down, just in time for him to come back in.

"Where did you go?" I ask, as he strips and climbs in bed beside me.

"Asked Warren about how it's been- how you've been." He replies, wrapping his strong arms around me and pulling me incredulously close to him- which I don't mind one bit.

"Oh."

"I love you, Sage. You've gotta stay strong for me." He whispers, kissing my lips passionately before pressing me flush to him again.

"I love you too, Tommy." I whisper, and I begin to think about this all.

Oh god what a eventful day.

((A/N -

Hey. Sorry I've been not updating for a while, I'm making a Carl Grimes fanfiction as well as like 3 others so it's pretty hard- plus I'm trying to not get them mixed up again.

Thanks for being patient :*
