SAGE
Chapter 33: High school junior debut
Sage Miller
Just so you know, when I said I was excited for school to reopen I didn't mean the waking up early part.
Right now I'd do anything to turn back to a couple of days back so I can sleep. The hang over isn't helping.
Someone should've told me last night how much of a bad idea it was drinking the before school opened.
I would've given that person a million dollar if they told me.
"Go away Connor." My voice came out muffled and hoarse.
"Oh come on. If I let you sleep I would never hear the end of it. From you. So please end my misery and get up." He whined and his voice was loud.
"Go away." I told him slower this time.
"If you wanna show off your new car, you have 15 minutes to take a bath and eat breakfast. I already did breakfast. It will get cold."
"I'll eat it cold." Even though I was now awake, my eyes refuse to open. My body refuse to get up.
In the summer I could count how many times I actually had to wake up before 9am.
Once. I did that shit once. And I was pissed the whole day after doing that.
"Come on. You're already awake. Now get up." He groaned and I think he stumped his foot in annoyance
"Five more minutes." I muttered.
He sighed heavily and I inwardly smiled.
Just as I thought he gave up, he said something that got me to my feet in less than a second.
"Sebastian is leaning against your car." I was on my feet in seconds. The desire to have five more minutes gone.
His laughed told me he was fucking with me. I scowlled at him as he laughed.
"Fuck you Connor." I snapped at him not happy with him, not that he cared.
"I should've started with that. I don't know why didn't I think of it early. It would've saved me so much time." He teased.
Just then my hang over caught on with me and my mind made connections of last night.
"Holy shit you're DK." I exclaimed and winced when I heard my own loud voice.
He grumbled.
"I thought we established that last night." He groaned.
"I was drunk." I stated.
"But I wasn't. Now go take a shower. We gonna be late." He said. "You do wanna show off your new car, don't you?"
I rolled my eyes as I walked down the hall to the bathroom.
"By the way. I'm staying at my mom's tonight." He yelled just as I started the shower.
"Ain't you racing tonight?" I asked him.
Last night we didn't get to talk much about his 'job'. Between the excitement of his win and the fact that he's DK, we didn't talk much.
We got really really drunk. Or at least Sebastian and I did.
"Narh. It's one of those rare days when I don't race." He replied.
"By the way. You didn't tell me much about your boss Maze, I think is his name. How did you even end up working for him? And I thought I'd meet him last night. After all I want to see why you hate him so much."
"Yeah his name is indeed Maze. You wouldn't like him though. He's a real dick. Let's not mention Sebastian, they'd probably fight. And as for how I got to work for him, that's a long story and illegal." He yelled back.
"Illegal?" I yelled shocked. "You did something illegal. It shouldn't surprise me because you're racing illegally but it does. I've never imagined you doing something illegal."
"Shut up and shower. We're gonna be late for your show." He yelled.
I laughed and continued my shower.
Ten minutes later I was feeling fresh and ready to take on the world.
I walked inside the kitchen and Connor was already finished with his breakfast and washing his dishes.
Just as I sat down, the door bell rang. I groaned.
"It's too early for visitors. I haven't even had my breakfast." I whined like a two year old.
Connor rolled his eyes at me.
"That must be Sebastian. I invited him for breakfast." He told me and my jaw dropped.
My eyes widen in shock as I stared at him.
Who is this man and what havens done with Connor?
He keeps shocking me lately.
"Oh come on, don't give me that look. I told you I'd try." He said.
"I really appropriate yiur efforts." I told him and two seconds later Sebastian walked in, in all his Sebastian glory.
"You're late." Connor deadpanned.
"He's still eating." Sebastian pointed at me. I shrugged and ate some more.
"He was late. Can't you two just wake up on time for once." He scolded.
"I bought you a peace offering." He took out a pack of gummy bears and Connor beamed at him.
"Fine you're forgiven." He told Sebastian but his attention was on the pack of gummy bears.
"Keep this up and I might never let you go." He said.
"Oh hey, where is mine?" I whined.
"Jealous isn't a good look on you Sage." Connor mumbled.
Connor accidentally let out a moan, I was almost positive he didn't realise he let it slip.
Addict.
Sebastian and I locked gaze before we bursted out laughing.
Connor snapped his eyes opened and stared at us curiously.
"What's so funny?" He asked.
We locked gaze again before we smirked.
"Nothing." We simultaneously said.
We finished our breakfast and we were done and ready to leave.
