'Am I just afraid of loving?' Can't Sleep Love by Pentatonix
It's been over a month since Mitch tried to commit suicide, over a month since Scott saved him and broke up with Alex and nearly a month since Scott and Mitch became what? Friends with benefits? Yes, that's it, friends with benefits. They kissed and cuddled, even slept in the same bed on worse nights. December and Christmas was nearing.
"Mitchie?" Scott wrapped his arms around Mitch's neck from behind as the smaller boy sat on the gray couch.
"Yes, Scottie?" Mitch gripped at Scott's forearms and looked around at his bestfriend.
He smiled at the thought of having his bestfriend back and the fact that he was caring about him.
"What do you want for Christmas, Munchkin?"
"You don't have to get me anything. I have everything I could possibly want."
"Whatever, I'm still gonna get you something, baby."
"I like these pet names you're giving me." Mitch giggled and pulled Scott over the back of the couch and Scott landed with his head in Mitch's lap.
"I like it when you're happy. How are you doing with ya'know.. Your depression and anorexia?"
"I'm doing better because you're here."
And that's not a lie this time.
Mitch was actually doing much better than he was months before. He mindlessly started running his hand through Scott's blonde locks, whilst he used the other one to scroll and type on his phone. He was searching and ordering Scott's Christmas present.
"That's good that you're doing better and it's sweet of you to say that it's becuase of me."
"Well, it's true." Mitch locked his phone and set it on the arm rest and continued running his hand through Scott's hair, occasionally tangling strands around his fingers and looking into Scott's blue eyes.
"I love your eyes so much. They're so blue and captivating and have his small twinkle in them. You get these crinkles by your eyes when you smile or laugh. It's beautiful."
"Like you." Mitch blushed at Scott's reply.
"Are we inviting the band and some friends over for Christmas or is it just us?"
"I was hoping it would be just us, because we're always surrounded with people I feel like we should have a quiet Christmas, just you and me, a few movies and Chardonnay. How does that sound?" Scott leaned up and kissed Mitch's clean-shaven jaw.
"Sounds fantastic. God, I love you and your ideas." Mitch rubbed his nose against Scott's in a small Eskimo kiss.
"I love you too, Muffin."
"Right, move yourself Giant. I have to go order your present." Mitch tapped Scott's forehead for him to move his head from his lap.
Scott grunted and moved his head from Mitch lap.
"I guess I'll have to order yours too. And I have something in mind that you'll like."
Mitch started walking to his bedroom before turning around and seeing that Scott is following him. He sucks his head out through the half-closed door and smiled innocently.
"I'm sorry Scotty, but you are not allowed beyond this point."
"At least tell me what you're buying me." Scott whined and pouted like a child.
"Sorry Hoying, you'll find out on Christmas Day. Just two short weeks, honey." Mitch closed the door and disappeared behind it, leaving Scott pouting outside his door before turning around and going to his own room to order Mitch's present.
