Disclaimer- I didn't write Twilight/ New Moon, those were written by the wonderful Stephenie Meyer. But I do own the character Sage.
Chapter 14- What a charmer
Sage's POV
I sat on the table, drumming my fingers against the fake wood. Edward walked into the kitchen, a smirk on his face. " So do you snarl at your friends often or is this a new thing you have going for you?" He joked, sitting beside me. I growled softly, continuing the rhythm of my fingers hitting the wood.
" Edward, you shouldn't joke about things you know nothing of." I replied. He sighed, running a hand through his copper hair.
" What's wrong Sage?"
" Nothing Edward."
" You're lying."
" I don't lie."
" Well see, you're lying right now." I smiled and nodded my head, leaning into the back of the chair.
" Ah Eddie, you know me too well." He scoffed and shook his head.
" I'll let that slide, seeing as you're upset and everything." I let out a dry laugh and looked at him.
" You couldn't take me anyways." I told him while standing up, I locked eyes with him as soon as he stood up too.
" Ri-i-ight." He drawled. " So what's wrong?"
" Edward, I told you. Nothing in the world is wrong with me."
" Fine. If you don't want to tell me, you don't have to. I'm going to head upstairs and talk to Bella about the wedding. If you decide you want to talk, you know where to find me." I smiled and gave him a small hug.
" Thanks Edward." I whispered in his ear.
" Don't worry about it, you're like a sister to me Sage." I broke the hug and gave him a small push.
" Yeah yeah, and you're like a brother to me, now let's stop all this mushy crap. Go to your wife." He straightened up and placed one hand across his forehead.
" Yes sir, er, ma'am." He teased. He lowered his hand and his face grew serious. " You worry way too much Sage." He said softly.
" Yeah, I know." I whispered then gave him another small push. " Go on and plan your wedding." He smiled and walked away. I sat back down and looked at the clock; a couple more hours 'til midnight. I let out a small sigh; my thoughts drifted away-taking me to the one person I didn't want to think about at that particular moment in time. All of a sudden two quiet voices arguing behind me.
" No you ask her." One said, it sounded like Alice.
" No you ask, I don't want to." A voice replied, sounding quite like Rosalie.
" Why do I-" I spun around and glared at them. They both smiled; their eyes shining mischievously.
" You know I can hear you two. Now what's up?" I questioned them. Alice moved her small pixy-like body over to me, her smile growing. I rolled my eyes, I felt a headache coming on. " What Alice?"
" Are you doing anything tomorrow?" She asked, her topaz eyes glittering in the light above us.
" Why?"
" Rose and I want you to go shopping with us t-" I held up a hand and stepped back.
" I don't shop if I can help it, I order."
" Please!" She held her hands together and puffed her lips out into a puppy dog pout. I gazed at them both, standing there like two five year olds.
" Have you two lost your damn minds?" I questioned them. They held the stance, I couldn't help but give in. " What are you going shopping for?"
" Wedding gifts." Rosalie spoke up. I looked at them again and nodded my head.
" Fine." They squealed and jumped up and down. " Calm down you two, you're making me regret my decision."
" Oh Alice knew you were going to say yes."
" I figured as much." I chuckled. They gave me a quick hug then walked back upstairs, already planning out some of their gifts. I headed into the living room, Gabrial was picking up the materials we'd used for the summoning spell and some extra debris that'd blown from the wind. I plopped down onto the couch and crossed one leg over the other. " Well, I might as well deal with Gillian; seeing as how that is the reason you called me." I said nonchalantly. He looked up at me and shook his head in agreement.
" I forgot all about that. Umm, well, I suppose you could go to Bire Alley."
" Say where?" He chuckled and stood up, wiping his hands off on his pants.
" Bire Alley, a neighborhood of the undead. There's bars, clubs, cafe's; it's pretty nice actually."
"Great." I stood up and smiled. " Come on."
" Tonight? Now? What about-"
" I have a couple hours left before Amerie comes back. Enough time to get a vamp."
" I can't, I'm supposed to go somewhere." He said and turned around, picking up some more junk. I walked behind him, placed an arm on his shoulder and whipped him around.
" Gabe you're lying to me. Why?" I looked at him through narrowed eyes. " What's going on?"
" Nothing, maybe you could take one of the Cullen's. Hey didn't you say Edward knows her?"
" You know what, he does! He would be great help! Thanks Gabe." I patted his shoulder and smiled.
" No problem, what are friends for right?"
" Right." I chuckled, then swung my leg out; knocking down Gabe. He hit the ground with a thud. I fell to the floor and straddled him, getting my face close to his. " Do you think I'm an idiot Gabrial? You even think about charming her and I swear to God I'll be picking your ashes up in the morning." I growled.
" Now Sage, why would you think something like that? I really do have somewhere to go."
" You better." I got up and called out Edward's name. Before he got downstairs I leaned back down to Gabe. " I'm trusting you Gabrial, don't make me regret it."
" Yeah?" Edward said from behind me.
" You're coming with me to Bire alley to get Gillian." I replied, my eyes still on Gabe's.
" Now?"
" Yeah." I got up and walked towards him. " Now."
A/N Just a short update, hope you like. I'll get a much longer one out soon :) Thanks for reading!
