"Avi," Kirstie whispers into my hair.
"Yes?"
"Why can't we do it tonight?"
"You've had a hard day, and I don't want this to be a stress reliever. I want it to be about true love."
"You're too cute," she smiled and brought her lips to mine. I snaked my hands to her waist and kissed her.
"Thanks," I pulled away and smirked. "I'm not happy about what you told your mother."
"What? The childhood crush story?"
"Yeah," I lean in closer. "There is one way you can make it up to me."
She glanced down at my lips and met my eyes again. I smirked at her and walked out of our room. I heard her grunt in frustration, and I laugh.
"Avi?"
"Yeah babe?"
"I'm tired," she groaned. "Can we go cuddle?"
I grip her hand and lead her to the bedroom. We get ready for bed. I climb into bed and flip the duvet so she can easily get in. She curled up to my side, and I wrap my arm around her waist. Soft, faint snores escaped her lips, and before I knew it, I was asleep.

"Wake up!" Kirstie whispers into my ear.
"Hmmm babe?"
"We have an interview today. We should announce it then."
"Yeah. Let's get ready." I walked to my closet and choose a cardigan and button up with dark wash jeans. Kirstie comes out in a loose burgundy sweater with leggings and flats. Her hair is straight in her blonde bob. I kiss her cheek, and take her hand. The boys meet us at the studio.
"Welcoming Pentatonix!" our interviewer called. We all walked out, answering questions and such.
"So, do any of you have significant others?" She moved forward on her chair.
"Yeah! Kavi and Scomiche are real," Scott smiled.
"So is Kori!" Kevin smiled.
"Wow!" the interviewer high-fived Kirstie. "I would love to have a piece of that cake."
Kirstie pursed her lips and tensed next to me. The interview went on a rocky path after. Kirstie was rigid. We got in the car, and Kirstie sighed. "Thanks."
"Um," I laughed. "For what?"
"Well, for not lead her on, by being charming and such. You weren't. Thank you," she smiled and took one of my hands in hers. I exhaled, and was prepared for the perfect night in.

A/N
I am literally the worst. I'm soooooooooooo sorry. I've been distracted with life and such. But, spring break is coming, so I'll have time to update.
