Trapped (Unfinished)

5- POV Kevin

"Ya'll ready?" Scott asks.

We stand backstage listening to the crowd. We can hear them chanting "PTX."

Avi and I start off our performance with Problem. Kirstie joins in with "La La Latch" and we walk onstage, singing our mashup.

We walk offstage after our encore.

Turning to us, Scott says, "That was an amazing first show!"

"I know," I replies. "That crowd was so energetic!"

"Time to celebrate!" Kirstie yells. We all laugh and start running.

I look back at Scott and Mitch, noticing the Scott is keeping his distance from Mitch. As we pass by our dressing room, Scott eyes the door, weary.

Avi sees too, and we make eye contact and nod taking note. He's been acting weird all day, being cautious of Mitch especially.

Esther brings out pizza and alcohol and we all start to party.

"Ya'll did great tonight!" I say, opening my arms up. Pentatonix all come over for a group hug. Esther and the crew join in too.

The night goes by so fast. We take selfies, Scott and Mitch are their silly selves, and we all have a good time. I know all the fans will flip out over Scott and Mitch's selfies tonight. They were 100% Scömíche material. To be honest, I sort of ship them.

"Knock, knock!" I hear Scott yell at the door.

"Come in," I say. We invited the crew over to our room to hang tonight.

Scott opens the door, "Hey ya'll! Mitch and them didn't come cuz they're having a girls night tonight, but I'm not in the mood."

"That's cool," Avi says as Scott lays down on my bed. "Tonight was amazing!"

I nod and look over at Scott remembering how weird he acted today

"Hey," I start. "Are you feeling okay?"

He looks at me, confused."Yeah, why?"

"Well, I just noticed today that you were acting a little... cautious. You looked afraid of our dressing room... and Mitch. What's up?"

"Oh, you, umm, you noticed that?" I nod.

"You don't think Mitch noticed, do you?" He asks.

"Probably not," I answer. "We can help you if you tell us what's wrong."

"It's nothing. So, Avi do you have a picture of your dragon?" He asks, totally avoiding the subject.

Avi replies, "No, but dude don't avoid the topic. Is something wrong? We're here for you."

Scott ignores him and pulls out his phone to text Alex. Avi and I make eye contact and go to the bathroom.

"Why do you think he's acting like this?"

"I honestly have no idea," I say. "I just really hope he and Mitch didn't have a fight earlier or something. They're best friends!"

"I know." Avi peeks out the door at Scott. "We can try again, but let's not pester him."

I nod and we walk back out of the bathroom to Scott.

I nod at Avi who starts, "Dude, you don't have to tell us what's up but-"

"I had a dream last night." Scott cuts in.
