Not So Perfect

Chapter 24

Chapter 24

"I can't believe he had the guts to come up and say something like that to me!" I complained as Aiden threw our lunch in the nearby bin, we were walking towards our lessons after I had awkwardly tried to get away from Tate.

"he's new, let him see how daft this school is then your problem will be like tiny comparec to all the rest," Aiden said letting his hand trail over the fence poles.

"yeah but come on....and how did he find out?!" I exclaimed dreading the answer.

"he obviously spoke to Sage,"

I glared at him, "I didn't need to know that."

"you asked..." he carried off uncertainly.

"what?" I demanded knowing something was wrong, Aiden suddenly looked very uncomfortable.

"um, don't freak but Sage is like coming towards us. Like any second now." He murmured in my ear.

I spun around and saw him. He was so good looking it wasn't fair, he was wearing a tight t-shirt that showed off his more or less toned body and he had jeans on fitted to his legs, he looked like a model basically. It was like my feelings were coming back twice as strong, as first I felt attracted to him so much that I wanted to kiss him right then right now but then I suddenly remembered the horrible things I had made him feel and instantly I felt bad and ignored the attractive feelings I felt toward him.

Sage came over so we were talking distance, he seemed distant and not himself, his hands looked like they were in a constant fist and his jaw was stiff, I knew he was uncomfortable which made it even worse. He was about to speak to Aiden when he started before him. "I saw you this morning, you knew I would tell Callie, so why do it?" Aiden instantly went to my defence referring to his little encounter this morning.

I winced. "Aiden don't, I deserved it," not daring to look him in eye I fiddled with my phone.

"new look?" Sage asked in low voice. I glanced up to see him tilting his head towards me.

I swallowed, "yeah," I could feel my face heat up, I hated it so I looked down again.

"nice," he said in a smooth voice....wait, I recognized that voice...it was his player voice, he always used to use it on the ladies when we used to hang out. When he was with me, his voice was warm, relaxed and honest, this sounded cold and now...awful...

I snapped my head up to his, "I can't believe you!"

Sage raised his eyebrows in mock surprised but I knew he knew that I knew.

"sorry?"

I ignored him and stormed off past him, I couldn't believe it; he was treating me like I was any other girl to him, just something to pass his time....I felt disgusted and used.

I felt people staring at me but I ignored them instead going for the toilets. I felt tears in my eyes and I hated it, I felt weak and tired, I should feel the opposite, I should have played my cool side, calm and confident, defiantly not showing that he was getting to me but instead I had let him get to me and sage knew that, how long was he going to play me? How long was he going to keep getting under my skin? When was I going to get over him? I hung my head and leaned against the sink cabinets thinking it over.

What was the worst that he could do? Get the whole school to punish me? I touched the wood hoping defiantly that that wasn't going to happen.

The door opened and I widened my eyes. "sage?!"

He smirked and I cowered away, what was he going to do?

"wow, chill, Im joking," he said leaning against the counters.
