PART TWENTY-ONE

"Randy.."

"No, Sage let me finish."

"Okay." Sage replied. 'Please don't let this go where I think it is!' she thought.

"But, I wanna be able to be jealous. I wanna be able to call you mine and I wanna be able to kiss you whenever I feel like it. I want you to be my girlfriend so what I'm asking you is will you be my girlfriend?" Randy finished. Sage didn't answer. She looked at Randy as if contemplating it (although she wasen't) just to make him worry and then planted one on him.

"If you didn't get that, it's a yes." Sage laughed before taking refuge on Randy's bed too tired to walk back to hers in was on the complete other side of the hotel and on the 7th floor. "Night Randy." Sage said before falling asleep dressed in her "party clothes".

"Night, Sage." Randy laughed before joining her, himself also fully clothed and he too soon fell asleep. The two woke up and just did things together like shopping, going out to lunch, that kind of stuff. Little did they know so did all the other couples.

Quite few days passed and it was now Thursday, September 9th, 2004.

"Hey Randy." Sage greeted as he opened his hotel room door.

"Hey babe." he greeted. 'God it feels so good when he says that.' Sage thought.

"Yea, I was just wondering if you wanted to come mini golfing with me." Sage said.

"I'd love to but, I already promised the guys that I'd hang out with them today."

"Okay, well then I gotta go find someone to go with. Bye baby." Sage said giving Randy a quick peck on the cheek before turning to leave.

"You don't get away that easily." Randy said as he spun her around and planted a nice big kiss on Sage's lips before saying, "Have fun golfing. Think about that kiss."

Sage smirked. "Well, you have fun with the guys and think about this." Sage said before smacking Randy's butt lightly and leaving.

'Gees, are all the guys going to hang out together today.' Sage thought frustrated. She had already asked Matt, Chris Jericho, Shane, Shannon, Paul, and Ric. 'Okay I will hang out all day with the next guy I know that walks out of the elevator.' Sage told herself. That's when she hear the elevator door open and out walk none other than..... Jeff Hardy and Dave Batista.

"Jeff, Dave." Sage called. They looked for the owner of the voice and when they spotted her they walked over. "Are you guys hanging out with the guys today?" Sage asked. They both nodded. "Wouldn't you rather hang out with little old me?" Sage asked with a pout. Again they simply nodded. Sage smiled. "Well then lets get outta here and do somethin'." Sage smiled as the three of them walked out to Jeff's car. They had just had lunch when in walked Angie, Dave's wife. She had wanted to pay him a suprise visit so the two left to spend the day together.

"Well, now since our um, third amego just ditched us what do you wanna do?" Jeff asked.

"I wanna go goofy golfing." Sage smiled.

"Sure, lets go." Jeff laughed.

They were at the first hole and Sage was doing horribly. She was already 5 over par and the ball had barely moved.

"Here, like this." Jeff said as he wrapped his arms around her placing them on the correct spot on the putter. He then raised her hands and helped her swing. The ball went right into the hole.

"Thanks." Sage blushed.

"No problem." Jeff said as they walked to hole number two. 'Thank god it's only nine.' Sage thought.

Sage had been improving with Jeff's help. The game was soon over.

"Thanks Jeff, now I can kick Randy's ass anytime." Sage laughed.

Jeff smiled weakly, 'yea, Randy's....' he thought.

"I'm hungry." Sage laughed rubbing her stomach.

"Alrighty, let's go to Denny's then?" Jeff suggested.

"Sure." Sage said in agreement.

The two were soon on their way to Denny's. Sage was playing with the radio until she found a station that she liked. Kelly Clarkson's Breakaway had just finished and the D.J started talking. "That was Breakaway by American Idol's Kelly Clarkson, and next we have a song by another American Idol contestant, it's Eighth World Wonder by Kimberly Locke. I hope you enjoy it on our American Idol power hour." the female D.J announced.

Sage started singing along and as she did her thoughts drifted to Randy. Just the way he would crack a sometimes not so funny joke, or even the way he would tickle her to get his way, and the first time he had actually kissed her, silly little stuff like that. Only now it didn't seem so silly to her. When the song was over and Sage opened her eyes Jeff was pulling into the Denny's parking lot and looking at her smiling.

"What?" Sage asked.

"Nothing." came his reply as they walked into Denny's. They ordered and sat in one of the booths. Not too long after Dave and Angie walked in and they ended up joining Jeff and Sage in the booth. Dave and Angie ate what seemed to be rather quickly and then rushed off. To do god only knows what. Jeff and Sage were now sharing a milkshake. It was HUGE!! Sage and Jeff were just have and all 'round good time. Cracking corney and sometimes stupid jokes they were so into this that they didn't notice the group of guys walk in.

"That was mean." Sage laughed after Jeff had commented on how horrible a singer that Gail was.

Randy saw Sage and Jeff sitting together sharing a milkshake and Sage seemed to be laughing at some comment that Jeff had made. Now Randy felt jealous again but, this time it was ok, atleast to him. He just wished that Jeff was no where to be seen and that was him with Sage.

"Down there Tiger." Paul laughed at Randy as he was giving Jeff a death glare.

"Wha? Sorry." Randy said before joining Paul in a conversation.

Sage had gotten up to go to the washroom and on her way back she noticed the guys. She suggested to Jeff that they joined them and Jeff uneasily agreed.

"Hey guys." Sage greeted walking up to the group, "Mind if we join?"

"No not at all." Matt said guesturing towards two seats next to Randy. Sage went to take the spot next to Randy but, Jeff quickly sat there before Sage could. Sage shot Jeff a confused look that he completely missed and sat down beside him. The guys decided that they wanted to go see their girls so they all left. Sage told Jeff that she was going to ride back with Randy and he nodded.

"Okay, see ya later sweets." Jeff said as he left.

"Hey, baby." Sage said giving Randy a peck on the lips.

"Hey." Randy replied before leading Sage out of Denny's and into his car. "Oh Sage I have something to ask you." Randy said once they were in the car and on their way to the hotel.

"Yea?" she questioned.

"Adam and I thought that it might be a good idea to go on a double date. Would you like to?" Randy asked.

"Sure, but, if you're going with Adam who am I supposed to go with?" Sage questioned with a slight grin.

"Ha ha, you're such a comedian." Randy smirked as they pulled into the hotel parking lot.

"I know." Sage smiled before getting out of the car, "So like when were you planning on having this get-together?"

"Um, Sunday."

"Sure, if Hayz agrees I'm in." Sage smiled as they walked into the hotel hand-in-hand.

It was now Sunday, September 12th and the girls were debating what to wear.

"What about this?" Hayley asked holding up a pink fishnet top and black tank.

"Uh, what if we go somewhere fancy? I think we need to find the perfect combination of fancy and casual. A rather impossible task." Sage commented.

"You're right."

"I always am." Sage smirked before recieveing a smack to the back of the head from Hayley. Sage stuck her tounge out before going back to searching through both luggage bags. "I found my outfit!!" Sage screamed half an hour later. Holding up a pink silky shirt and black pants.

"Uh, that'd be a nice outfit if the shirt wasen't ripped and the pants didn't have a bleach stain." Hayley commented. Just as Sage noticed these things.

"Damn!"

The girls kept going through outfit after outfit until about and hour later they found the perfect ones. They found them at the exact same time when they held them up to show the other they laughed. They were exactly the same except the colours were opposite. Sage had this black sliky top with a very low 'v' cut and a pink flowing skirt and black strappy high heels while Hayley had a pink silky top with a very love 'v' cut and black flowing skirt with pink strappy high heels.

"Ok, what about hair?" Hayley asked.

"I think that you sould straighten yours." Sage said.

"And I think you should have waves, not curls but, waves."

Both girls showered one after the other and then started on each others hair.

Sage straightened Hayley's hair and Hayley used the curler to give Sage waves.

"Make-up." they said in unison. The girls did their own make-up. Sage did the same look that Trish gave her a while back on the night that Randy had kissed her and her foot popped. Hayley did almost the same but, her eyes were more of a silvery/pink mix.

"Alright, lets call the boys and we'll be on our way." Hayley said. Sage nodded and dialed Randy's cell.
