Sage's Quirky (Calum Hood fanfiction)

~ 2 ~

Magic 8 Ball, did Sage get a boyfriend?

Concentrate and ask again later

Shut the fuck up

“So… you’re my dad?” Sage sits uncomfortably on the automann, her eyes switching from the floor, to Calum, to Luke, to Michael, to Ashton, to me, and repeat.

“Yeah. It’s great to finally see you, Sage,” Calum grins at her with hopeful eyes.

“I’ve been wondering where you’ve been,” Sage slides her bare feet across the wooden floor.

“I’ve been trying to locate you two, but your mom’s a very sneaky lady,” Calum glances at me with a sharp look.

I roll my eyes, crossing my arms.

I stand up from the couch I was sitting on awkwardly next to Ashton. “What do you want for dinner?”

“Ham and rice,” Sage requests, standing up from the automann as well, pulling at the edge of her shirt awkwardly.

“Okay,” I reply, walking into the kitchen.

Sage follows behind me and watches as I pull the rice out of the pantry and ham out of the freezer.

“Can I help you?” She asks, rubbing her left hand around the right arm’s wrist.

Uh oh.

That’s what she does when she’s nervous about asking for something.

“Can you get the butter out of the fridge?” I request, pulling two pans out of a cabinet.

I don’t get a reply, but by the noise behind me I can tell Sage is doing what I asked.

“Alright, what’s up kid?” I ask as she hands me the butter.

“What do you mean what’s up?” She leans against the counter next to me.

“You want something. What do you want?” I ask her, slicing the butter and sliding it into the pan.

Sage sighs, a blush immediately coating her face. “So I have this friend…”

“AKA boyfriend,” I smirk, teasing.

I allow Sage to date.
