#Sage Malfatto

[author-arin]

"This is childish, Sage," Mateo says as he stands himself back up.

"Ooooh! Mister All-Star speaks!" I mock. He steps closer to me, towering over me. I feel my heart quickening.

"Stop making a scene," he hisses, looking down at me and staring daggers. It makes me throw my head back and laugh for some reason.

"Oooh! You want a scene?! I can show you a scene!" I challenge him.

Kris puts a hand on my shoulder and tugs on it in an effort to bring me back to our table. I try to shrug him off.

"Sage, just leave it. He's not worth it."

He's not worth it? No, Kris misunderstands. He's worth everything to me.

I shake my head at Mateo and laugh at him. "I'll see you in the rink, Finnegan."
