Being Grassi-Hoying

Chapter 9

**Scott's POV** 

"Guys, I don't really want to go out, or eat, so can we just call something in??" Mitch lays on on our bed in our and Kirstie's hotel room. Avi and Kevin decided to get another room downstairs for them to share. Mitch started not feeling to good while we were helping Charlie and Agent Ryan. I took him back here and soon Kirstie joined. "But Mitch, you always want to go out!!" Kirstie looks at him, worry plastered all over her face. "I just don't feel good, okay??" He says a little harshly.  "Okay.." Kirstie looks at the floor. "I'm sorry, that was rude." "No, it's fine." "Kirstie." "It's fine!!" "Then take my apology!!" "Okay, I do!!" They laugh. "Guys!!" Charlie knocks on the door. Kirstie opens it and he stares at Mitch. "Sorry." He turns a little pink. "It's cool." Mitch sits up slowly. "What's up??" "Well, Ryan's gonna order pizza, if you want to eat with us..." "Sure!!" Kirstie smiles, looking at us. "Umm..." I trail off. "Scott. Go." Mitch rolls his eyes. "But I-" "Scott!! I'm fine." "Okay." I put my head down. "Well I'll follow you over." Kirstie smiles at Charlie, who blushes. "Okay." They leave. "Scott, you know I hate that." I sit by Mitch on the bed. "Yeah, but you don't feel good and I promised I would take care of you." "Stop it." He snaps. "What??" "You're being adorable again." I laugh. I see his face is as red as strawberries in the summertime. ( ;) ) I scoot closer to him as Mitch cuddles into my chest. "I want Karlie." He starts to cry. "I know. Me too." I can feel Mitch wanting break down. "You remember the day we decided to adopt a kid??" "You mean you did." I laugh. "Yeah, I know. I had to talk you into it." Mitch laughs. "I remember thinking about it for so long. Fighting myself over it and finally just going for it." "Yep. Then you had to convince me." "Well that wasn't too hard." Mitch slightly giggles. "I also remember when we looked at Karlie's file for the first time. How much you and Kirstie cried, how mad I got. I remember her racing through my mind 24/7 like you do." I rub my hand up and down his back. "Then us saying at the same time we wanted Karlie. The long wait to get her, breaking it to our parents, their faces. Planning Karlie's room, you moving into our room...Th-" "Hey." I make him look at me, my eyes tearing up as he was talking. We just look at each other for a few seconds before Mitch slams his lips on mine, Thank God. I think to myself. We just enjoy the moment for awhile. Then the kiss starts to get a little heated, me intensifying the kiss and him nibbling at my bottom lip, before it gets too heated, Mitch pulls back. "God, I've missed that." he whispers breathlessly, resting his head on my chest. "Me too." I smile. We just lay down in comfortable silence until I see Mitch fast asleep. "That proves you aren't feeling good." I whisper, kissing the top of his head. I sit there, watching him sleep, until Avi walks in. "He-Oh." he notices Mitch. "Hello." He says a little quieter than when he first started. "Hey." I whisper back. "That guy called me this time, he said to not leave the hotel and do not use our phones for anything." "That's right, Kirstie used hers..." I remember. "Shit." He almost growls. "I forgot to tell her. Anyways," He changes the subject. "One of us will bring y'all some pizza later. Want anything??" "Well, the remote would be nice." I smile. "It's on the table over there." I point with my free hand. "Oh, I see it." He grabs the t.v. remote and walks it over to me. "Thanks, Av." "No problem Scott. Call Charlie and Agent Lezzo's room if you need anything." "Okay." "It's on the table." He holds up a piece of paper with a number written on it. "Got it." I nod as he walks out the door again. I look back down at Mitch for a bit until turning on the t.v. I watch NCIS: Los Angeles quietly, letting Mitch get the rest he always deserves. After a few minutes, at commercial, I close my eyes and slowly fall asleep.

**Mitch's POV**

I wake up, not realizing I fell asleep. I keep my eyes closed, not moving. I can hear Scott's heartbeat, one of my favorite songs. His chest rises and falls under my head. He has an arm protectively, yet comfortably locked around my waist. I lay there for a few minutes, and I hear the door open. "Scott?? Mitch??" I hear Kirstie whisper loudly. "Scott." I hear her walk over and move Scott's head around. "Hmmm??" he rumbles. "I brought you and Mitch some pizza." She whispers sweetly. "Why thank you." He mumbles back. "Did you guys decide to take a nap or something??" Kirstie giggles. "Yeah, I guess." He whispers. I move around a bit, then decide to let them know I'm awake, because the pizza smells really good. "I'm awake you know." I smile, still keeping my eyes closed. "Are you sure??" I feel his fingers wiggle against my side. "Stop!!" I shoot up, hitting Scott's chest. "Yep, he's awake." He laughs. "You're mean." "And you're not??" I roll my eyes. "That pizza smells really good." I look at the plates Kirstie's holding. "Here." She giggles, handing me a plate. "Thank you." I take a bite of the greasy goodness. "Oo. Where did you guys get this??" "I don't know. Agent Ryan and Charlie bought it. We've all been over there." "Oh. Well that's really nice of them." I nod, taking another bite. "How long did I sleep??" "Like an hour." "Oh." I sigh. "So, wait." Scott randomly says after a few seconds of silence. "Yes??" Kirstie looks at him. "What exactly are they here for?? I mean, I understand Agent Ryan is FBI and shit, but like why is it just them??" I stare blankly at the bed for a second before saying. "You know, that's a really good question." "Well, I could ask them??" Kirstie shrugs. We both nod and Scott stretches, saying. "Well...We'll be over there in a minute I guess." Kirstie nods, grinning at me. "What Kit-kat??" I give a confused look. "Oh, nothing." She grins wider, walking out of the room. "What's her deal??" I look at Scott, who shrugs. "I don't know." The hotel phone rings, and I answer it. "Hello??" I say sweetly. "Hey," Avi's deep voice comes through the speaker. "When you guys get over here don't talk to Charlie, he's working away. He won't hear us though because he has headphones on. Agent Lezzo says it's people like Black Veil Brides, and Sleeping With Sirens, and Pierce The Veil...??" "Who??" "Screamo and Punk??" "Oh." I nod to myself. "Got it." "Alright, see you two in a minute." "Okay." He hangs up and so do I. I walk over to a mirror, fixing my hair. Scott walked into the bathroom while I was on the phone. He comes out and walks up behind me, wrapping his arms around my waist, resting his head on my shoulder. "Hi." I smile at him in the mirror. "You are so beautiful." I turn a little pink. "Shush it." I laugh. "I'm dead serious Mitchell." He turns me around to face him. His blue eyes meeting my brown ones, locking on to them. "You are stunning, I'm so lucky to have you." "Shut up!! I'm more lucky to have you!!" I giggle, putting my arms around his neck. We share a long kiss before putting on shoes, then walking over to Agent Ryan and Charlie's hotel room. Scott knocks once and Agent Ryan answers the door. "Hello Scott and Mitch." He smiles. He invites us in, and we walk into the room, seeing a busy Charlie scribbling on a piece of paper, then frantically typing away on a laptop. (Like me!!) He stops for a second to wave at us, I wave back as he goes back to work on the laptop. "So, Agent Ryan." Kirstie starts as we sit down in some chairs. Avi and Kevin are on a couch and Kirstie is sitting Indian style on a bed. "Yes??" He asks, sitting on the other side of the bed from Kirstie. "We were wondering, how come we've only seen you and Charlie over here?? I mean I know you're from the FBI and all, but we figured there would be more than you two." He smiles at all of us before answering. "Trust me, there is way more than just us two working on this case. There's a good 12 to 25 people working on this back at Headquarters. We try to keep the agents you see to a minimum so you guys won't get overwhelmed." I nod, "What about Charlie though??" I say, looking at the busy man. "Between us, everyone goes bonkers with Charlie there. So they send him with me, since he works on whatever case I do." He watches Charlie for a while, before turning back to us. "Oh, okay, we were just wondering." Scott nods. "Well, you guys have a right-" "God dammit!!" Charlie slams his hands on the desk, shaking the headphones off and you can hear deep screaming loud and clear from the headphones. "Sorry," He pauses it, "I know not a lot of people like that music, but it kinda soothes me and helps me focus." He starts to blush. "That's alright, but what's with the rage??" Kevin asks. Charlie stares back at the laptop. "I was hacking into the tracking devices on y'all's phones, and someone kicked me out-Wait..." He types quickly. "Not a smart move, Justin Case. I've always beaten you, and I will again." He smiles like a kid on Christmas, and keeps typing. "Got it!!" He cheers, not taking his eyes off the screen. "Have what??" Kevin asks. "You guys can now..." He types a few things before slamming on the enter key. "Use your cell phones." He grins wider when he looks at us. "I'm the Dexter to Justin Case's Mandark." "Oh, I get it!!" I laugh. "He had a complex, deep encoded tracking system on all their phones, made it look like an update for...Twitter."He explains to Agent Ryan. We all stare at each other with wide eyes. "So, we can use our phones now??" Charlie nods. "Just go into the App Store to make sure something actually needs to update." He smiles. I watch as Kirstie, Avi, and Kevin pull out their phones, Scott getting out of the chair. "I'll go get our phones." He smiles at me. "Yes please." I laugh as he leaves. He comes back in a few minutes later, handing me my phone. I turn it on and I see my lock screen. It's the picture of Scott and Karlie asleep in Avi's truck. I hold back tears, unlocking the phone, my background being Scott and I on our wedding day, him in his classic black tux, me in a white one. I smile staring at it, letting my phone vibrate non-stop to give me all my notifications. A few emails, app notifications, and 16 messages from my mom, and 10 from my dad. I open them to see my mom just dying to talk to me, and my dad just telling me to answer my mom and congratulations on getting Karlie, typical. I go back and read some of my mom's messages. 

"Hey, how are you?

You ready to be a dad?!

I wanna see pictures!

Mitch, you alive?

Mitchie! 

Guess you're busy with your new kid, text or call me when you can.

Is it true she's been kidnapped by her biological father?!

Mitch, answer me!

I'm really worried about you guys.

Mitchell Coby, answer me!"

"Sorry momma. Couldn't use my phone, they were tracking it. Yes, our daughter, Karlie, was kidnapped by her biological father. We're really worried cuz they took Esther too. Sorry again, love you!!"

I send her the pictures of Karlie as a tear hits my hand, am I crying?? I lock my phone and sure enough I am. I wipe my eyes before Scott looks at me. "Hey, you okay??" He stares at me with concern. "Yeah. Mom was just wondering about us and Karlie." I give a half smile. "And your dad??" Scott gives me a hopeful look. "He was just telling me to answer mom before she blew her top." I shrug, pretending to not let it affect me. My dad's never really showed any kind of care towards me, unless I was on stage, had a bad grade, broke something, or was on T.V. It felt good when filming the movie, he looked so proud of me, but as soon as the camera guys walked away, he was back to dear ol' dad. "Sorry Mitch, I bet he's worried though." Kirstie smiles at me, and I force a smile back. "Man, my mom is so scared." Avi pipes up, tears in his eyes. " 'Tell me where you are right now and I'm coming there straight away.' " He reads. "I wish I could've answered her sooner." Kevin pats his shoulder as he sighs. "All our parents are worried about all of us." Kevin says, "They're our parents, and they all love both Karlie and Esther. They treat all of us as if we all grew up together from diapers." We laugh. "My mom called me 96 times." Scott laughs. "My sister even texted me." "Yeah, your sister texted me too." I laugh when my phone vibrates again. "Guys," Kevin grabs our attention. "Look on Twitter." We all log on to Twitter and the first thing I notice is the #1 worldwide hashtag. " #SaveKarlie." Scott speaks as we all stare at our phones in disbelief. "Hey, I started that." Charlie laughs. "Awe Charlie!!" I jump up and hug him then sitting back down. I see him blushing madly before I turn my attention back to Twitter. 

"Thanks you guys, that means the world. We just want our little girl back. #SaveKarlie"
