Not So Perfect

Chapter 16

so, how’s the relationship going?” Tori hinted to me as me and Sage sat at the lunch table outside.

I glare at her taking my lunch from the lunch tray.

“great actually, why? Jealous?” Sage smirks opening his food.

“just a tad,” Tori said sarcastically.

Aiden snorted shaking his head.

I roll my eyes at her and start to eat the sandwich.

“it is a relationship right?” Tori clarifies.

I widened my eyes at her.

Sage narrows his eyes not fully understanding. “what?”

“don’t worry shes being an idiot,” I mumble glaring at her again.

“well, like have you even discussed it? I don’t know...explained specific details?” she winks at me.

“Tori!” I groan.

“what is she talking about?” Sage asked me.

“No idea,” I reply darkly.

“are-“

“Tori!” I throw a piece of lettuce at her.

She jumps and moans, “aww, really?”

“yes really! Shut up!”

“Cal, what's she talking about?” Sage sigh grabbing my hand and winding his fingers through mine.

I look at his face, he’s got a look that says ‘please tell me’ with a sincere expression.

I kiss his cheek. “I’ll tell you after school,”

He smiles at my affection squeezing my hand.

The table conversation carries on. Sage skims his thumb over the back of my hand soothing me.

He glances me from time to time, as if to check I'm still here, once or twice I caught him looking and he smiled kissing me softly.

“ahh, I hate newly lovers,” Tori groans one time.

Aiden just shakes his head at her. they seem to be getting on better now.

“isn’t it newly weds?” Sage says in a snarky voice which makes him sound sexy....oh, I did not just think that?! Maybe they’re not getting on so well instead...

Tori sticks her tongue out at him. “shut up Sage,”

He makes a face back.

“how old are you two?!” I cry slapping Sage’s shoulder lightly.

He narrows his eyes at me and grins. “did you just hit me?”

“she slapped you,” Tori says.

“did you?”

“I punched technically,” I squeak.

“your going to regret that after school,” he entwines our hands and kisses the back of it never breaking my gaze.

I swallow. Shit....how does he do it?!

He smirks at my reaction and focuses on his lunch dropping my hand.

I frown.

“So Aiden, dating anyone?” Sage asks Aiden innocently and curiously. I huff.

Tori almost spits her drink out of her mouth. She covers her mouth with her hand half coughing and half laughing.
