Mitch spent the day of the party with Todrick and Kirstie shopping, grateful Scott invited them too. The nerves proved to almost be too much for them. They made a pact that they wouldn't rush in to any thing so they stayed away from each other for a week. Texts and calling were their only mode of communication and even that proved to almost be too much. The first two nights were spent acting like high schoolers. They stayed on the phone for hours, refusing to even hang up to shower. Those nights ended in phone sex and Mitch listening to Scott snore.

He wanted to look good for the tall blonde man he was quickly falling in love with.

"So. What's the plan?" They stopped at Starbucks, deciding to eat lunch there. Bags littered the floor. Kirstie looked at Mitch, taking note of the nervousness he wasn't managing to keep at bay. He knew that they didn't trust Scott. They didn't  know him. To them, it seemed like one night of the best sex he's ever had, turned into whatever this was. But they couldn't possibly know how he felt.

He bit his lip, "um well the party doesn't start until 8:30 but he wanted to hang out before. So try to be ready by 7:30. I...I just wanted to say thank you, guys. I'm not quite sure why I feel the way that I do but I really like him. I just don't want to fuck this up."

"You just met him though."

"I know but you have to trust me. There's something about him. Am I saying he's the one, we'll get married, and live happily ever after? No. But-"

"You don't even know him that well."

"Kirstie!" Pointed look that sent shivers don't her spine and proved he meant business. "But am I willing to see what happens? Yes."

"Even if you get your heart broken?"

"Yes."

Todrick smiled. Kirstie was only to trying to protect Mitch but she didn't see what he saw. That night-the first night-Mitch had been in love from the moment he looked in those blue eyes. What she chose to ignore, he reveled in. Mitch's Eyes would light up any time he spoke about Scott and he talked about Scott a lot. He had eavesdropped on a couple of their conversations, long enough to know Scott felt the same way. It was strange, watching two people fall in love so fast. Surely, Scott's friends had to feel the same way. But nevertheless, if something beautiful came from it, Todrick supported it wholeheartedly.

::::::::

Matt, Todrick, and Kirstie were ready by 7:15 but Mitch had to be prefect. He wanted to be the boy on Scott's arm that made everyone stop and look. He wanted to match Scott's handsomeness. He picked out his favorite Gucci black blazer, a see-through white blouse, the tightest pair of black leather pants he had, and knee high stiletto boots. He sprayed himself with Amber Sexy by Michael Kors, decided on minimal but sexy and effective make up, and styled his slick blonde fringe beautifully. Kirstie's jaw dropped when he walked out.

"Goddamn." Todrick swore under his breath. "You look good enough to eat, my friend."

"Yeah? You think Scott will like it?"

"If he doesn't, he's blind." Matt said walking around him. He giggled and began to reply as a knock on the door interrupted him. Todrick ran to the door.

"Hot damn!"

Scott laughed "not sure that's how you should answer the door."

"Honey, no body told you to come here looking like a damn model."

Scott wore his best pair of loafers, tight skinny jeans, a black simple tee, a blue leather jacket. His hair was immaculately styled and he smelled like Gucci Guilty. Todrick invited him in and once the two love birds saw each other, even Kirstie could see the attraction.

"Hi."

"Hi."

"You look....unbelievably sexy."

"Thank you."

Scott told them to expect a large group of people. Scott couldn't keep his eyes or hands to himself. He kept a hand on Mitch's back the entire time, opting to hold the blonde's hand as they walked to the car.

::::::::

The car ride was silent. Well, Scott and Mitch were. Scott has his hand on Mitch's thigh. Every now and then Mitch would turn and smile at him. For what it's worth, Scott was nervous. The fact that Mark would be there, with Mason, scared him alittle. He didn't want Mark to scare Mitch away.

Mitch reached up and poked Scott's head. "What's going in there? You look like there's something on your mind."

"Um..Darien invited my ex. Well he was invited months ago but they didn't expect him to come."

Mitch pursed his lips. "And I don't want him to scare you away."

"He won't."

"Promise?"

"Scott, I can handle myself."

:::::::::

Cars lined the driveway and the street in front as they pulled up. Nicole stood outside welcoming everyone in, freaking out when Scott and Mitch walked up. She ran up and hugged them. Mitch introduced his friends and they walked in.

Loud music rang in their ears as they maneuvered through the crowd. Near the back of the living room, under the stairs, stood Avi and Kevin. Tyler and Korey standing beside them.

Tyler, Kevin, and Avi smiled while Korey frowned. "Mitchy!! Scotty!!"

"Welcome!"

Korey walked away as Mitch introduced Kirstie and Matt. He locked eyes with Todrick, who didn't like the look on the brunette's face. He followed Korey into the kitchen. He hid while listening to Korey whisper loudly. He immediately recognized the voices.

"Mark."

"What Korey?"

"Scott's here."

"Great, now we can show off baby."

"Yeah, not too fast. He brought his new boyfriend."

"N-new boyfriend?"

"Yeah. The small twink from Pyramids."

"Rumi?"

"Yeah."

"Well that won't do."

Todrick frowned as he was tapped on the shoulder. "Spying isn't becoming."

"Kirstie."

"Here, I bought you a drink."

"Thanks."

"Who we spying on?"

"I think I know Scott's ex. If it is him, Mitch is in trouble."

"Why?"

"Remember that guy Beau met at Drop? He brought him home and had the grossest sounding sex in the bathroom."

"Yeah."

"That's him."
