Time Skip: Half-way through tour

Mitch's POV

"SURPRISE!" Esther shouts jumping up from behind the counter as Kirstie and I walked into the room.

"What is happening?" Kirstie said with a huge smile while looking around at the decorations.

"Well it's halfway through your tour dates and we wanted to celebrate!" Esther said giving Kirstie and I a hug before gesturing at the rest of the crew who were smiling and talking to each other with glasses of wine in between their fingers.

"Scott, Kevin and Avi aren't here yet. They had to do some man business. So, Mitch here and I decided to come back early." Kirstie explained laughing a bit, sipping some wine that Esther had given her.

"You got it sis." I said smiling at Esther.

I have a feeling we all were about to get very very drunk. We had a big dining room to ourselves and it was filled with alcohol and other snacks.

"Oh and guess who's here Mitchie?" Esther said putting a hand on my shoulder.

"Who?"I asked before she turned me around. The one and only, Alexander.

Well, shit.

I force a smile on and gave Esther a hug and a thank you for organising everything before she went off to talk to Kirstie.

Scott isn't here yet. It's fine... Just get yourself together.

"MITCHIE! What is this?" Scott...

I turn around to see Scott with Avi and Kevin and the doorway. Scott looked at me and stretched his hands out looking for a hug with a huge smile, I couldn't help but smile back and walk towards him about to hug him...

But instead, he walked right past me to hug Alex.

Alex.

Why did I even do that? So stupid. Stupid. Stupid Stupid.

I frowned, and I couldn't help but hug myself to stop tears from pricking.

"LEXI! Why are you here?" he practically screams.

"To celebrate you guys!" Alex screams back with a huge smile on his face as they hugged again.

I roll my tear-filled eyes and walk towards the food counter to ignore their conversation. I grabbed a shot of vodka and downed it, letting the liquid sting the insides on my throat.

"Whoa there tiger. What's wrong?" Kirstie comes and pats me on the back. I looked at the ceiling to force the tears back in.

"I'm fine. It's stupid." I said laughing bitterly.

"Mitch, I've known you since a long time. Not as long as Scott but I know when you're upset."

I cringe at Scott's name.

"What did Scott do?" Kirstie asked leading me onto a chair away from everyone.

How'd she know?

"He didn't do anything." I said firmly but a traitor tear fell. I quickly wiped it off and placed my hands on my lap.

"No. I'm sure he did something. You smile when you hear his name. Not frown." she said holding my hands.

"It's so fucking unfair. Why does he have to be my best friend?" I mutter letting my tears fall freely now.

"Aw Mitchie..." Kirstie said smiling sadly wiping my tears. "I wanted you to confess your feelings about Scott to me when you were happy. Not at this state. Just remember, he cares abou--"

"MITCHIE?" Shit. My hands went straight to my eyes and furiously rubbed them to stop the tears.

"Yeah Scott?" I asked looking at Kirstie before nodding for her to leave. She got the idea, stood up and left.

"Alexander is here!" He said pulling me into the crowd. I wasn't in the mood for this right now. He obviously had some alcohol in him already, so did I, but not enough for me to go crazy.

"I know Scotland, I saw him." I said sadly. It's not like he's going to notice.

"Okay..."Scott looked at me and frowned, "Are you okay?" Spoke too soon.

"Yeah. I'm fine." I said plastering on a smile.

Scott looked at me gave me a hug before going into the crowd. Everyone seemed to be sitting in a circle, so I joined in sitting next to Kirstie, farthest away from Scott, since he already had company. I shouldn't even be feeling like this. He is my friend and nothing more.

Kirstie gave me a look and said, "Let's play truth or dare!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Well a longer chapter for you guys. Finally some drama right?

I got this idea from the snapchat that Mitchie got rejected by Scott :( Tell me in the comments if you know what I'm talking about.

I'm still going to go through this to edit but tell me if you see any mistakes :)
