Sage

Chapter Forty Four

"This shit is packed," JP commented as they sat down in a VIP area reserved for them.

"Doubt imma stick around for long," Junior said.

"There he go again, you'll leave when I leave," Marcus demanded.

"That's never," Junior mocked a whine, making JP chuckle.

"Exactly!"

Wes walked to their table with a line of girls in tow dressed in black bum shorts and bodysuits branded with the club's name carrying bottles that had sparkles burning on top of them.

"Wassup gents," he greeted and dapped all three.

The girls placed the bottles, two buckets filled with more alcohol and ice, glasses, and hookah pipes.

"You didn't need to do all that," Junior told Wes.

"For y'all, anything," he said as he sat on an armrest, "But condolences on your boy, ain't the same seeing just the three of y'all," he spoke somberly.

"All good, the life we live," JP stated.

"The life we chose," Marcus added.

"What's up with you, you've been quiet for a minute, and come back to this," Junior asked waving his hands in the air.

"Shit, I ain't know people down for a boy like that cause I'm surprised too," Wes admitted with a chuckle.

"Blessings," Junior told him.

"No doubt," Wes stood up, "Let me see them," he said and dapped the guys up, "All is on the house," he added and left.

"I'm about to order the whole house," Marcus joked.

Junior shook his head as he opened a bottle of Remy Martin then with swift movement, he gulped from it before placing it on the table.

"Here's to Trae Fazel Young," Marcus said lifting his bottle in the air. Junior and JP joined in and clinked their bottles together before taking sips from them.

For The Night by Popsmoke with Lil Baby and DaBaby was the song booming throughout the club. With a few bodies swaying to the beat and more chilling, surrounded by smoke clouds.

Junior got comfortable in his seat and let his eyes wander around the upper level of the club. He then spotted Sage seated in an area that was three tables away from him.

She turned her head away as soon as Junior looked at her, feeling embarrassed.

Junior watched her drink from a glass, swaying her body left and right. He looked at the area she was in and recognized her stepsister and friend.

He then saw a guy that played too close to Sage and he grew angry immediately. Sage seemed to enjoy his company because she laughed while tilting her head back and patting his chest with her hands.

Junior looked away, trying to control his emotions.

"Imma be back," Marcus announced.

JP shook his head, "He started, don't know why you gotta walk around every time you drinking," he commented.

"Y'all are boring, that's why," he said and walked off.

Junior chuckled, trying to focus on anything but what he just saw.

"Hey baby," a whisper came from behind.

"Shit," he said cause he got a fright then he turned to see Trina, "Fuck you doing here?"

"Return to whichever dick you got off from cause I ain't got time to play nice tonight," JP spat.

"Put a muzzle on your dog JR, before I have to," she flicked her hair.
