Calling Card

[Sage]

It wasn't early but it wasn't late. Sage had been a wake for hours. He hadn't slept much since coming back from the land of the lost world or wherever the fuck they'd gone. He'd sent Cruz a message to meet for coffee and he left Aiden a message saying he was going out.

@"Aiden Finnegan" Going for coffee with Cruz. xoxo

But he wasn't just going to meet with Cruz. He had other things to do as well all of which centered on the underground and getting back in touch with Nox. He didn't like that his friend had gone so deep he lost touch with the world. What if he was hurt again? What if he died... Sage didn't want to think about the haunting Aurora would do if her little brother came back dead on his watch. Not if he could help it.

Cruz sat at a table with his bio chem book in hand and a plethora of wrappers from discarded confectionaries. Sage joined his friend after having ordered his own coffee and he waited for Cruz to finish his train of thought. He had his own things to handle while his friend was busy.

Sage hadn't actually every met Nox's boyfriend. But since Sage hadn't heard from Nox, maybe he had. He had followed the man around Moscow, tracked his wallet and kept a watchful guard on him so no Atharim would catch him unaware -- or at least let Nox know he'd been approached by the snakes he used to work for. So far it had been nothing more than stalking a friend -- nothing out of the ordinary for Sage. But he sent Raffe a normal message the normal way on his wallet, with typing and everything.

@"Raffe" Have you heard from Nox? (Just got internet back and it's troubling me) ~ Sage Hopefully Raffe knew who he was. At the very least he should he'd seen Nox's wallet enough, and knew about more things than Sage could count -- things Sage wished he hadn't. But that was the price you paid when you were friends with Nox -- a boy who had no secrets -- not even ones he should hold on to with an iron fist.
