Misbehavin'- Only One on My Mind: Kavi Story

Chapter 13

Kirstie's POV

We brushed off Hoying and his comments about 'getting our story straight'. We had decided that the two of us had been through a lot within the last few days, and needed time to thoroughly relax before work picks up again. After Scott left, we got right back in bed. We really did stay there for the rest of the day and into the night. We watched TV, and fell in and out of sleep, and ate chips, and just laughed. We didn't speak of any of the pressing matters we really should have talked about. Now, a whole 24 hours later, it's about time we started sorting this mess. Before too much time slips away from us.

We sat at the kitchen table. Him across from me, two mugs of coffee in between us, and just stared at each other. If there was something he and I are good at, it's not saying anything at all. I'm a little better than he is, because he was the first to speak up...

"So... uh," he exhaled "What should we do now?"

"You wanna have sex?" I joked

"Kit."

"I know, I know..." I giggled "ya know? Why don't we just go for it?"

"Like, you and me start dating?"

"Yea! I mean, we both have the same feelings for each other, thats apparent!"

"But, what about work?" he asked, "I mean, of course I'd want you to be my girlfriend... but what if that messes things up with the band?"

"How? We're two professional adults. As long as we keep work, separate from our relationship we shouldn't run into too many problems right?"

"right-"

"and... if we love each other as much as we say we do, then we should have the patience to work through those problems, should they arise." I smiled, he reached out and pushed a stray hair behind my ear.

"Like I said, it's not that I don't want to. My mind just keeps reminding me that there may be a reason it took us this long to get together in the first place... know what I mean?"

"There is a reason!" I said, "We're more mature than we were back then. We've had time to grow as individuals, and learn, and make mistakes with other people... maybe now we're ready for each other."

"Where'd you get all that wisdom from?" he smirked

"Esther!" I teased. He was quiet a moment, turning his mug on the table, in thought. He smirked up at me.

"Well Kit? I'm ready if you are." he grabbed my hand and kissed it gently

"Ok!"

"Ok then" he agreed, "so, you're my girlfriend?"

"yup!" I smiled, my stomach fluttered to hear him say that.

Avi's POV:

We spent the next few hours still in relaxed mode. We each took a shower, decided to take Olaf for a walk (holding hands for the first time). I decided to run out and pick up Chinese for the afternoon. I swear  all we do is eat together... Well that and the sex... which I guess is why we're so hungry all of the time. When I came back she was shoving her suitcase into a closet. "That was fast?" she said

"You know my driving!" I winked

"Uh... yea we should talk about your driving."

"I know, I know" I moaned. We sat down and started eating. 

As we were cleaning  up Kirstie spoke up. She wore a certain look on her face today, like something was still on her mind.

"So, I'm glad that we figured us out but... what are you gonna do next?" she asked, "I mean, most of your things are still at your old apartment with Amber... shouldn't you get all of that soon?" I had completely forgotten about where I'm supposed to live now... All I had with me here was what was on the airplane. My suitcase was still sitting there in the entryway.

"Oh right," I sighed, "umm... I guess I need to find an apartment!"

"I mean, you're welcome here..."

"We probably shouldn't... not yet."

"Yea you're right... Hey, I know there are some open apartments in this building, I can get you in touch with my landlord?" she offered. "Or would you rather be somewhere completely different?"

"No, No that would be perfect!"

"Great!" she said, she flung her arms around me. I lifted her petite body off of the ground and spun her around. I'd do anything to get a laugh out of her. 

So this is life now? New girlfriend, soon to be new apartment. I've had my fun, I'm ready to slow down a bit and do things right for once. This relationship with Kit means the world to me. I gotta make this really count, and be special for her too.

So now... What do we say to the others... and how do we say it... better yet, how do we say it to the fans?
