Chapter 9: ILY
To say Mitch was livid would be an understatement. Scott was asleep on his bed, arm draped over his bare thighs as he searched Instagram.
His search was fruitful though. He found out both Mark and Mason were going out...with Beau no less. He was done with being scared of the tall dirty blonde. He was also done letting Mark run Scott's life. Enough was enough.
"Scott, baby, get up please."
Scott rubbed his eyes and yawned, "I'm up, buttercup."
"You're a dork."
Scott smiled and stared at Mitch with his post sex afterglow. The streaks of tears on his face reflecting the sunset. "What's up? You've been crying."
"I'm sorry."
"For?"
"Not telling you. Letting some asshole run my life. For not putting my foot down the night of the party and letting your ex almost ruin us."
"I..don't think what happened was bad."
Mitch rolled his eyes and scoffed, "You don't?"
"No. It gave me the courage to finally do what I wanted to do months ago. You're mine now."
Mitch smiled but it didn't reach his eyes. Scott sat up and ran his fingers through his hair. "Talk."
"I'm getting Mark back for that. He's out there right now WITH Beau. I can't....I won't. You're the best thing that happened to me and I'm pissed he tried to take you away."
"Baby, listen to me. Fighting with him will only make it worse. You have to understand that he is miserable. Any chance he can get to you, he will. I..I'm happy. You're happy, right?"
Mitch's smile was genuine and it reached his eyes, tears forming in the corners. He nodded and Scott leaned over, kissing him. "You will get your chance. I can promise you that."
Mitch smiled and unlocked his phone. It was 11:30 and he knew from recent activity that one of the three of them were online. He also realized that he and Mason had been friends online since before that weird bathroom incident. He quickly changed his relationship status and posted a picture of Scott:
When it just feels right...ILY❤️
The picture flashed on the screen making Scott smile. Following the same pattern, Scott happily changed his status and posted:
When feelings are mutual...
::::::::
"You know what they say....it's not official unless it's posted on Facebook." Scott left early that next morning after two more rounds of the best sex Mitch has ever had. He could get use to this. Waking up next to tall blonde, making love until it was time for him to go, and then coming home, falling asleep after another moment of passion. Yes, please, and thank you!
He stood in the kitchen, making breakfast when Todrick and Kirstie came down. "I don't think I've ever seen you this happy."
"I've never been THIS happy. Seriously, I feel like I'm flowing on air. He loves me!"
Todrick smiled. Even Kirstie smirked, watching the brunette dance around the kitchen, giggling like a little school girl.
"I'd say something like be careful but how am I kidding? You're an adult and Scott really seems to care for you. I'm happy for you."
Mitch whipped around, fluffy pink robe flowing and smiled. He jumped up and down, "thank you, thank you, THANK. YOU!!"
::::::::
"Not going in?"
Scott walked into the house he shared with Avi and Kevin as the two sat in the kitchen.
"Nope."
"Why?"
"Mark tried to break Mitch and I up yesterday. I don't really want to face him today."
Avi raised an eyebrow while Kevin smirked. Apparently Scott forgot to look in a mirror. Vickie's lined his neck, his hair more tossed than normal.
"Jesus, Scott. Next time tell Mitch to lay off."
"To break two people up, you'd have to be in a relationship."
"We are."
Avi sat his coffee down and smiled, Kevin clapped. "Thank God! I was wondering when it would happen."
"Mark sort of pushed me. Tried to bring up Mitch's former roommate I didn't know about. The thought of him being with someone else scared the shit out of me. I had to do it."
Scott was finally happy. He had his job back, a beautiful boy on his arm, and friends who had his back.
