The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend Angry Sage
KaidenThe moment I stepped into the house, I was greeted with chaos. A vase came hurtling toward me, and I barely managed to sidestep it as it shattered against the door. My heart stopped for a split second, then raced as I stared at Sage, who was standing in the middle of the living room, his chest heaving, his face red with anger.Which was comical because his face was the same color as his hair.“Sage, what the hell?” I blurted out as I tried to process the attack.“You!” he shouted, his hand came up and grabbed his hair, “I cannot fucking believe you, Kaiden. I just can’t believe you.”“What are you talking about?” I asked, holding up my hands defensively. “You’re acting insane right now!”“Oh, I’m insane?” he scoffed, then he chuckled, “he called me insane,” he mumbled to himself before he turned back to me, “You know who called me? River. Professor River. He told me my so-called best friend paid him a visit today. My best friend harassed him and told him to stay away from me.

SageThe next day, I dragged myself into the lecture hall, I still had to go to school. My phone had been buzzing non-stop since last night, but I ignored every call, every text. Kaiden could wait. Or maybe he couldn’t but I didn’t care. Not after the stunt he pulled.I kept asking myself if I overreacted or maybe, I acted just sane over someone I admire to my best friend but every part of me screamed that I was right. He shouldn’t have interfered with my career.I was so depressed that I didn’t want to come to school today but I managed it, and now, I was definitely regretting coming here since I couldn’t bring myself to focus.I sat in the middle row, my notebook open but I wasn’t writing anything down. Professor River’s voice drifted through the room as he explained some intricate engineering principle. It was probably fascinating, but I couldn’t focus on a single word. My thoughts kept circling back to Kaiden, from his jealous outburst, to the shame I felt when Professor River

SageBy the end of my lectures, I was practically bouncing in my seat. The morning had been slow probably because I was so mad at Kaiden. I tend not to focus on anything till we have made amends. I was feeling so much better now, not because the fight with Kaiden had magically resolved itself, no, that was still a mess but because I had something far more exciting to look forward to.Professor River was finally giving me a tour of Novatech. Nova-freaking-tech.Today was the day. I couldn’t believe I forgot. Damn that Kaiden. The message had popped up on my phone by the Novatech team, officially welcoming me to their company and how they couldn’t wait to meet me.I had almost let out a squeal in the middle of the lecture but I held my mouth. Since then, my mood has changed. It became lighter and it stayed like that till the end.I could barely keep my excitement contained as I made my way to his office. My feet carried me with a little skip, and the fight with Kaiden was pushed to th

SageThe tour was overwhelming. Every department seemed to be working on something extraordinary, and I couldn’t help but feel like a small fish in a huge ocean.What if I had nothing to offer here. I never once thought of that. I have always imagined working here but I forgot that my skills might pale in comparison to the others that work here.If they are as extraordinary as Professor River then I was barking up the wrong tree.He introduced me to various members of his team, and to my relief, they were all incredibly welcoming. His secretary, Clara, made a point to include me in their lunchtime plans.“You’ll be eating with us today,” she said with a grin.During lunch, I found myself at a large table surrounded by River’s team. They were friendly and curious, asking me about my studies and what I hoped to achieve during my internship. Clara filled me in on some of the office gossip, making me laugh with her dramatic reenactments of recent events.“You’ll fit in just fine,” she sai

KaidenFor the first time in all the years I’d known Sage, he had managed to leave me completely speechless. Me, Kaiden, the master manipulator, the one who always knew the right buttons to push. And yet, Sage had stood his ground, unmoved by my usual tactics. It was infuriating. Worse still, I knew exactly when this shift had started, when he entered Sage’s life. Who knew the nonsense he had filled in Sage’s head to turn him against me.Professor Rivers.I should have gone home like Sage told me to, but I couldn’t. Not when I knew something was off, not when it felt like the foundation I’d worked so hard to build over the years was starting to crack. If I didn’t step in, Rivers would knock it all down.My deck of cards, I had perfected each move right from the moment I started living with Sage, I can’t let that man ruin it all.So, instead of leaving, I followed him to his apartment. I ignored his warning. I was still determined to turn the wind in my favour. He is just acting out
Last Updated : 2025-01-07The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend Drastic measures: step one
KaidenI had always been a man of action. If something felt out of my control, I’d find a way to reel it back in. That’s why, when it felt like Sage was slipping further and further away from me, I did what any desperate person would do, I made a plan.The plan wasn’t exactly rational, nor was it entirely ethical, but it would put me back in Sage’s orbit. If he wouldn’t listen to me, if he was too caught up in his new life to see how much he meant to me, then I’d just insert myself into that life.The solution? Enroll in his school.Yes, it was drastic, but I was out of options. Sitting idly by while some arrogant professor stole Sage’s attention wasn’t something I could stomach any longer. I needed to remind him that I was the constant in his life, the one who’d always been there for him, who’d shaped him into the person he was becoming.And so, step one of my plan began with a trip to the admissions office. I had my disguise of course.I couldn’t risk the students finding out that
Last Updated : 2025-01-09The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend Step Two: forgiveness under the rain
KaidenStep two of my plan was one that made me look like a deranged idiot but I didn’t mind.I bought his favorite flowers, daisies and went to his place. Since I didn’t have a key, I stayed In front where I could see him when he came.Unfortunately, the rain decided to come down this time. It soaked through my clothes, turning me and my bouquet of daisies into a sad drooping mess. I was cold, I was shivering but I stayed rooted to the spot. Sure, the rain was unexpected but it added a dramatic flair to my apology. It made me look pitiful, apologetic and weak. I needed all the help I could get at this point.He wouldn’t ignore a soaking wet fool like me, he has a good heart.The bright headlights of a car pierced the downpour as it rolled to a stop a few feet away. My grip tightened on the flowers when I saw who stepped out of the car. Him. Professor Rivers.He popped open an umbrella, walking Sage to the building’s entrance like some perfect gentleman. I clenched my jaw so hard it

KaidenThe next morning, I woke up with a fresh plan. I wasn’t going to let Sage slip through my fingers, not to the professor or to anyone else. If Sage thought I was being ridiculous, fine. But I’d prove to him that I wasn’t just being paranoid.Thankfully, we had reconciled and I don’t think we would be fighting again. So I had the free reign to do whatever I wanted.I ran out in the morning, very early so I could go get a change of clothes and also coffee. Nothing like a good peace offering to start the day.When I arrived back at his place to pick him up, he looked surprised to see me. His hair was still damp, sticking to his forehead, and he had that slightly disheveled, barely-awake look that he always wore in the mornings. I handed him a cup of coffee.“Morning,” I said casually, leaning against the doorframe.“What are you doing? Where did you go so early in the morning?” he asked, rubbing his eyes and reaching for the coffee.“Thought I’d drop you off at school. Consider it

The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend The silence between us
SageI woke up with a tight knot sitting right in the middle of my chest. The apartment was quiet. No sign of Kaiden, and the sun had already climbed halfway through the sky.The sheets beside me were cold. He hadn’t come home last night.Rubbing sleep from my eyes, I wandered out into the living room, expecting maybe a note, maybe Kaiden sitting on the couch eating cereal out of the box like he did when he was too tired to pretend to be put together. But it wasn’t Kaiden I found.The professor sat there, hunched on the edge of the couch, elbows resting on his knees, fingers loosely interlocked. He didn’t even glance at me when I entered.“You’re up early,” I said cautiously, voice still raspy with sleep.His eyes lifted to me. They looked tired, more than tired. Hollow. “Did Kaiden come home last night?”I shook my head. “No. I thought he went to see you. He got your message, didn’t he?”His lips pressed into a line. “I went to his condo. He wasn’t there. I waited. His car was gone.
The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend The blue trick
KaidenMy phone buzzed again.I glanced down at the screen through the strobing lights of the after-party. The text was from the professor. “Are you home?” Something about him checking up tugged at my heartstrings. My chest tightened and I wanted to go home even more.Being here was challenging for me. I wasn’t home. I was at the kind of party that used to thrill me. A rooftop venue in the city, neon lights flickering against polished glasses, expensive perfume clouding the air, and beautiful people, too many beautiful people. Some I recognized from the runway. Others from TV. All of them orbiting around free liquor and someone else’s fame.I would have been delighted to have all these people around me,But none of them looked like Sage.None of them carried themselves like the professor.I leaned against the balcony railing, letting the air hit my face. I didn’t belong here. Not really. Not tonight.Months ago, I would have been thrilled to be here but right now, I wanted to be hom
The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend The devil in silk
KaidenThe clink of glassware and soft instrumental music floated through the private dining room, but I barely noticed any of it. My attention was locked on the man seated across from me, Desmond, the so-called sponsor, though I knew better now. He wasn’t just another businessman looking to capitalize on talent. He was the distributor. The puppeteer behind the chaos circling my life.Martin couldn’t stop talking. “You know, this whole thing… it’s a damn miracle. The sponsor paid for the new condo in full. Quietly. No credit checks, no delays. Even Sage’s outfit, hell, the professor’s tux too, he took care of it all. Who does that?”He kept saying all the things that I didn’t want to hear. Didn’t he know that I was terrified?I kept my gaze fixed on Desmond. He smiled faintly, swirling his wine like he had all the time in the world. I didn't trust that smile. It was too smooth, too practiced like everything about him.I was skeptical to be here even though I had no choice. I didn’t w
The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend Meet my sponsor
KaidenWhen we got home, Sage was still trembling in my arms.I guided him gently to the living room couch and sat with him, wrapping the throw blanket from the armrest over his shoulders. He hadn't spoken much since we left the boutique. The only sounds were the occasional hitch in his breath and the way his fingers clutched the fabric of my shirt like he needed something solid to anchor him.He really was scared, I can’t imagine how terrified he must have been. Hearing that so close to him must have pushed him off the edge. I hated seeing him that way.“I’ve got you,” I murmured. “You’re safe now.”He leaned into me, his body slowly relaxing as he drew warmth from my presence.“Kaiden,” he whispered, eyes fluttering. “I don’t understand why this is happening. Why me?”“Because you matter,” I said. “More than you know. And I swear, whoever’s behind this won’t get close to you. Not while I’m breathing.”Eventually, his head dropped to my shoulder, and his breathing slowed. I held him
The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend Changing room
SageIt was entirely unfair for someone like Amir to be real. Tall, lean, with chiseled features that looked like they belonged on a movie poster rather than in a security file, and a voice that dripped with smooth, practiced calm. He was the kind of handsome that made your thoughts scatter just a little if you looked at him for too long.And I was doing exactly that.“Mr. Amir, right?” I asked, extending a hand, hoping my voice didn’t tremble like my fingers did. “I’m Sage.”He nodded, his grip firm but not overbearing. “I know. It’s a pleasure.”He smiled and I don’t mean the empty kind people give when they’re on duty. It was warm. Polite. And it made my stomach flip in a way I hadn’t expected.But as he turned toward the room, I caught sight of Kaiden and the professor.Both of them were glaring.I blinked.Kaiden’s jaw was tight, eyes narrowed like he was assessing a threat he didn’t like the look of. The professor, arms crossed, stood with the energy of a man who’d already decid
The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend Mr Amir
KaidenWhen Martin dropped me in front of the professor’s house. I barely waited for him to drive off before I dug out my phone. My fingers hovered over the screen for a moment before I hit Bryan’s name.He was the only one who was making an attempt to help me right now. He answered on the second ring, his voice calm and clipped, like always.“Kaiden?”“Yeah, it’s me.” I moved to the far side of the room, away from the windows, and lowered my voice. “Something weird’s going on. I need to tell you about it.”“What kind of weird?” His tone sharpened immediately.I told him everything. The prepaid boutiques. The law firm. The condo being bought out. The way no one could or would tell me who was behind it. I could practically hear him frowning on the other end of the line.“You think it’s Sage?” he asked quietly.“No,” I said quickly, too quickly. “I don’t know. I mean—I don’t want to think that. And it’s not the professor either. I know that much. They would tell me if they are trying
The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend Mr Anonymous
KaidenI stared at the silver-trimmed envelope resting on the counter between the professor and me like it was some kind of explosive. The award ceremony. My name was on the guest list, of course. It had to be. I was the damn honoree.“I have my own invite, thanks to my connections,” the professor said casually, leaning against the kitchen counter. He swirled his coffee slowly, watching the dark liquid spiral. “But I think Sage should go with you.”Sage, sitting cross-legged on the couch and peeling a tangerine, looked up with a sheepish smile. “Would that be okay with you?”I didn’t even think about it before I answered. “No.”Their expressions changed almost instantly, surprise flickered across the professor’s features and Sage’s smile faltered.“It’s enough that Sage’s already in the spotlight,” I said, trying to keep my voice even, my words reasonable. “With the way everyone’s been talking and taking photos, I don’t want to put him in harm’s way, more than I already have. If you
The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend No more waiting
Kaiden The clock on the bedside read 3:12 a.m. I rolled onto my side, confused by the soft glow seeping under the bedroom door. I blinked the sleep from my eyes, and when I looked over, Sage was still fast asleep beside me, his breathing steady and rhythmic. I reached out, touched his hair lightly, then slid out of bed. The hallway was silent except for the distant hum of the fridge and the occasional rustle of the wind brushing the windows. I padded barefoot across the wood floor, and as I neared the living room, the scent of whiskey hit me first. That, and the sound of papers being shuffled with irritation more than purpose. The soft overhead light in the corner cast a gold sheen across the professor’s back. He was hunched over the coffee table, glass of whiskey in one hand, papers spread out like an autopsy, calm chaos wrapped in tension. He didn’t look up when I entered. “You’re still awake?” I asked, keeping my voice low. “I have work to do,” he said, not looking at me. His
The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend Nominate a model
KaidenI watched Sage’s chest rise and fall steadily, his breathing finally even and calm after a long, exhausting day. The faint hum of the heater filled the small apartment as the evening air drifted colder through the windows. He looked peaceful in sleep, peaceful in a way that didn’t match anything we’d been living through lately. It was a lie his body told, one I was grateful for, even if I knew it wouldn’t last. The last thing I needed was for him to keep worrying about the unknown.Today took a toll on him.I sat at the edge of the couch, elbows resting on my knees, hands folded, but my thoughts weren’t still. They kept drifting back to the question he asked earlier about whether we’d ever go back to how things were. And now I knew for certain: we couldn’t. Not with this storm closing in around us, not when every time I let my guard down, something tried to take Sage from me.I haven’t even figured out how to apologize to the professor, it took me a lot of thinking to realize
