Chapter 19

Paige's P.O.V

·······················

Have you ever felt so right about something, only to realise how wrong you were.

I know what I felt, and you can't tell me otherwise. Unless his touch was magic, those fireworks were no illusion. I thought you could only feel fireworks when you kiss someone, the first kiss. But oh how wrong I was.

The minute he wrapped his arms around me, leaving no room for judgement, I felt them explode into the brightest sparks, only to fall from the sky and vanish into thin air the minute he let go.

Why did he make me feel that way? I've barely know him a week and yet.....and yet it feels like I've known him forever. Like we've been collecting fireworks since were seven years old, looking forward to the day we would get to set them off together, My trail of thoughts was so strong, the link of one thought to another was barely tangible.

I guess I was staring into space, because when the world came back into view, I found myself gazing at the stars. How beautiful they are. I couldn't help but imagine lying under them, figuring out their constellations and cuddling closely together with Sage.

Sage. Had he hugged me out of pity, maybe because he could sense that I was upset? He seemed so reluctant to let me go but had he really cared, and really wanted to be with me, he would have drowned Taylor's summons into the dark blue sky. But he didn't.

Things between us are clearly not meant to be.

"Friendship?" I cried out into the darkness, " are you telling me that friendship is the answer to this problem?"

I was close to tears when someone responded to my question for answers.

"You've gotta take what you're given," Sage was walking towards me, "Of all places, Princess, you choose here?"

I looked around me, I was sitting on a step leading to the dirt road that the limo was currently parked on. When I ran away from Sage I followed to driver as he parked the car closer to the road. He was now asleep, drooling over the steering-wheel. From here, you can barely see the bon fire, or hear the chattering. Everything is somewhat muffled.

Trees blocked the view of the fire and water. No complaints from me, I didn't want to be found until everyone was ready to leave that way, at least, I wouldn't get left behind.

"Why would you come looking for me?" I couldn't see him though the tears that were blurring my vision. I tried to blink them away but instead the had a race down my face. Sage leaped towards me in an instant. Catching the tear that had abandoned my left eye.

"You just ran off, don't tell me you thought I wouldn't at least try catching up to you," his voice was low.

Sage and I were now both seated on the slab of pavement(mistaken for a step) infront of the resort. Not strange at all.

My body was shaking violently, but it wasn't until I felt his arm pull me towards him that I noticed. I felt so close to him now as he had his left arm slung protectivly around my shoulder. It flooded me with warmth.

"I didn't think you would have bothered," I tried to breathe, and not focus on how close we were sitting. How I could feel his heartbeat on the back of my right arm through his shirt.

"Princess, have faith in me once in a while," I couldn't see his face but I could tell by his voice that he wore his gorgeous smile.

I could sit here forever, in his arms and under the stars.

Sage's P.O.V

♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

Looking down at her now, she seems so vulnerable even though i know she's nothing but.

Why don't I feel this way about Natasha?

That's easy, she's just not Paige. Although she and I just met, something in her eyes tell me that we are destined to Be in each others lives. We would have met sooner or later. Sooner is good, its great but it's not right. Later would have given her more time.... More time to...argh forget it.

'John, you screwed up for yourself,' i thought to myself, realizing the worth of the person under my arm and starting a new thought, abandoning the other in the dark with now torch to make it back.

Together, Paige and I sat in silence. Not awkward silence but peacefully bonded silence.

Bliss.

I stretched my right arm around and brushed away the stray hairs off of her forehead, leaning down, I kissed her hairline lightly. She stiffened under my lips and then relaxed into me. Seconds later I found her eyes meeting mine, questions presenting themselves..

"Sage," she started, " what are your plans tomorrow?"

Oh thank God, i didn't know how to answer any questions she had about my actions. My arms and lips have a mind of their own, i tell you!

"None, why?" I was curious to know where she was going with this. So instead of telling her about the new ice rink that opened up down town, I let her talk.

"Let's do something?" a light ignited her eyes, As she searched my eyes for approval.

"ill pick you up at 12," i smiled down at her.

We stayed this way, just looking into eachothers eyes, connecting on an unknown level. She's so beautiful, I've never seen so many flaws step aside to show her inner beauty. I've never seen anyone quite like her.

"Dude, I lost my phone," Dimitri stumbled off the path and into view. Drawing Paiges attention away from me as she squirmed uneasily. Why was she acting weird? Oh right, Natasha...

Even though Tash and I are seemingly a "thing", she will not interfere with my friendships. Especially not this one. I pulled Paige closer to me, shocking her as a gasp escapes her mouth.

"Check the car," I said throwing my thumb backwards in the direction of the limousine. Hoping to get some time alone with her. Once he was out of ear shot, I stole one more glance at her. Though, as I looked down, she was already looking up and searching my face. She does that alot.

I wish i could just tell her everything. I will tell her everything.

Tomorrow.
