Description
I place my things on the leather seats before I walk to the balcony to get the aerial view of the dancefloor, bar and section underneath from here. Raising the glass of drink to my lips, I scan the dance floor looking at people dancing and talking. I was about to take another swig of my drink when I feel eyes on me. I look in the direction of the bar and find a pair of eyes locked in on me, making me freeze. Forcing myself to take the second swig, I keep my eyes on his as he has his on mine. I decide to raise my right eyebrow in question but get nothing in return. After what felt like a lifetime, all he did was to tip his glass in my direction while Bella's office door opens with the said guy walking out first followed by Bella with a f***ed up smile on her face. "Hey pretty face," she says to me and she walks up to me and kisses the corner of my lip. I scowl at her as she smirks at me. "I didn't do anything with my lips, I swear" she says as she laughs and hugs me. "Never said you did anything. You're outing yourself," I chuckle before pulling away and kissing the side of her forehead. "You know me better than anyone that I'm not into anything serious, so it's a no no. I ... what the f*** are you looking at?", she starts explaining before noticing that I wasn't paying attention. I smirk as she comes over to stand by my side, looking down at where my eyes are. I see the stranger still there, having his drink while going through his phone ignoring everyone around him. "That's new..." she says with a smirk on her face. ---------- Understanding the meaning of "capricious", came to Sage at the young age of 12. She understood that life as we know it, is fickle and never plays fair. So she played the long waiting game when it came to life relationships. Staying in between. Question is, how long till you decide it's enough?
