CHAPTER 55

Greg turned his head a side to ignore his noisy friend and came face to face with Sage. She looked… he never thought the dress that he had bought himself would fit her so perfectly'

With him staring at her like that made her feel giddy and shy. Suddenly she didn't know what to do and almost fell but held herself together.

"Wow I never knew you were into small girl," Eliot blurted spoiling the mood in the room. Greg looked at him and stood walking to the shy girl. He brought his arm out and she took it.

The two looked like a couple. He wore a black suit that complimented his long black hair. As he held her, she fitted well with him and that made him smile a little looking at the small woman walking next to him.

The trip was smooth but quiet; Eliot sat with the driver so the noise was less. Sage outside lost in thought. To her view she could spot some girls coming from school and that made her ember her school life.

She never liked going to but because she made fiends mostly Khalil. She missed him dearly.

Looking at the girl who hadn't said a word he signed looking at her line of sight. She was still young and wanted to live like the others.

 "What if I take you to school," Her eyes lit up so quickly and she looked at him in disbelieve. She had not disturbed him and he thought it was only best that he gave her the freedom.

 "You'd do that?" She asked looking outside.

"If you don't Couse me problems and do everything I say."

"And what that"

"Just being quiet, eating your dinner and accompanying me to several parties and I'll grant you all that you want," His words were smooth and carried a hint of temptation. He hadn't hurt her so she never thought twice after all she needed him to trust her so she could escape smoothly.

A mansion came to view and the two entered like the others. She wasn't out of place and for the first time in her life she felt wanted.

The girls there looked in envied that she could walk beside him but she had an advantage it was a massacred party were they would were masks, no one would know her.

 Few people same class as Greg walked to them talked few words and left. Following him all day felt trying and she had to rest.

Going to the restroom she washed her hands and reapplied her lip stick. Several girls walked in stood next to her some minding their own business but two girls wanted to know who she was to walk next to him.

"I've never seen you around, who are you," Just like talking to wind Sage wiped the excess lipstick.

 "Hey why did he walk in with you?"

"That ask him not me," Parking her necessities she decided to live but was stop by a back grab that made her lose her balance and fell.

Good enough the washrooms were classic and clean so it had no damage to her outfit. She stood slow and passed the fuming girls.

Having her mood destroyed she decided to walk out, maybe this was her best chance of escaping. She walked around searching for Greg and when he did not come to her line of sight she walked out.

It was almost night and the sun was setting she had no clue where she was running to but she just felt like going.

Walking out of the gate the road was free of people and it was divided in three ways. She took the right because she remembered that they had come through the left one.

 "Hey are you lost,"
