At the end of 9th period I go outside to wait for Eli.

What does he mean, "Mine". That's the first time we've ever talked!

I hear a beep beep and jump, startled. Then I hear a chuckle.

"Got your mind on something, Blondie?" Eli teases. I sick my tongue out at him. He chuckles again.

I hop in to the passenger seat and buckle up. We start to drive, the school getting farther and farther until I couldn't see it anymore.

"So what's your address?" Eli questions, shaking me out of my thoughts. I turn away from the window and tell him. I reach for the radio, hesitantly. I quickly hit the power button and here Story Of My Life. This is my jam, gurl! Then I start to do something I haven't done in a while. Sing.

"Written in these walls are the stories that I can't explain.

Leave my heart open but it stays right here, empty for days.

She tells me in the morning she don't feel the same about us in her bones,

seems to me when I die these words will be written on my stone.

And I'll be gone, gone tonight. The ground beneath my feet is burning bright. The way that I've been holding on so tight... with nothing in between...

The story of my life, I take her home.

I'd drive all night to keep her warm and time... is frozen. (The story of, the story of)

The story of my life, I give her hope. I spend her love, till she's broken inside...

The story of my life. (The story of, the story of)

Written on these walls are the colors that I can't change.

Leave my heart open but it stays right here, in its cage

I know that in the morning now, I see us in the light upon a hill.

Although I am broken, my heart is untamed still.

And I'll be gone, gone tonight. The ground beneath my feet are burning bright.

The way that I've been holding on so tight, with nothing in between...

The story of my life, I take her home.

I'd drive all night to keep her warm and time... is frozen. (The story of, the story of)

The story of y life, i give her hope. I spend her love till she's broke, and time... is frozen. (The story of, the story of)

And I've been waiting for this time to come around. But baby running after for is like chasing the clouds...

The story of my life, I take her home.

I'd drive all night to keep her warm and time... is frozen...

The story of my life, I give her hope. (Give her hope)

I spend her love till she's broke (till she's broke inside)

Inside.

The story of my life. (The story of my life)

The story of my life.

The story of my life. (The story of, the story of)

The story of my life..." I finish.

I turn toward Eli shyly to see he's staring at me. I blush. I'm so embarrassed.

"Was it that bad?" I ask shyly. He looked taken aback.

"That bad? Sage, that was amazing!" He cheers. I blush again. Curse being shy!

"Thank you." I look outside the car window to see we're already at my small, blue house. "How long have we been here?" I ask then giggle a little. He chuckles.

"'Bout 3 minutes. Nothing big." He smiles at me. I return it.

"Thank you, Eli, for the ride."

"No problem, Little Spice."

"Little Spice?" I question. That's new...

"Yeah, 'cause your name is Sage and Sage is like a spice sorta ingredient, plus you're so small, therefore you are Little Spice." He smiles widely at me.

"Okay then." I find myself saying. I hear a ring of a phone, Eli's. He quickly runs his eyes over the screen before looking at me and saying,

"I gotta go now, Sage, I'll be here at 6:40 to pick you up." He says, reaching behind me to open my door. I get out.

"Thanks again, Eli!" I call, walking up my front door steps. Instead of saying anything he smiles and gives me a thumbs up.

I turn around to unlock my door and set my bag on the kitchen table.

Best. Day. Ever.
