The day is full with soundcheck and press then there are the Meet and Greets and lastly, the concert. Scott is a little bit curious because of my weird behaviour in the morning but he doesn't mention it. But I want to talk to him anyway. So I go to him after the show.

"Hey, Scott? Think you have a minute or two to talk?"

"Of course." Scott looks at me slightly confused but gets up directly. "We're leaving for the hotel in thirty minutes, Esther wants to wait until traffic has calmed down. Is this enough time?"

I nod. "More than enough." I take his hand and lead him into one of the empty dressrooms.

We sit down on the couch and I know that I need to talk now.

"So, what's wrong, Mitch? You're nervous" Scott asks softly. "Has is something to do with what happened a week ago and this morning?"

I nod. "Yes. But it's a positive thing. At least I think so."

Scott raises his non-existent eyebrows. "Stop talking in riddles, Mitchy! What the hell is this all about?"

"I'm seeing someone, Scott!" There, it's out.

"But when... how? We're on tour and you can't really hide him in your suitcase!"

"Well, there's no need to do so, because... it's Avi" I say softly and avoid Scott's gaze.

Silcence.

"Say something, please. I know that we're irresponsible because of the band but..."

"Sssh... Mitch, I am processing this. I didn't know that Avi whas into boys and that you were so happy with him. God, you are happy with him, aren't you? And how and since when?" Scott babbles. I can really feel that he's beyond excited.

"So... it started about two weeks ago when we arrived in Europe. I couldn't sleep and tweeted that. Avi sent me a message, because he couldn't sleep as well. I went over to him and we started watching a movie and fell asleep really quick. And then the day after we did the same but we talked and I found out that he is... kind of pan? He doesn't label himself, he just told me that he falls in love with a person and not with their gender" I explain. "And then the night after he couldn't sleep and I went over to him. Well and the next day the two of us fought a little bit. When you called me out about leaving without telling you."

Scott nodded, totally into the story. "You stayed with me the night after though, didn't you?"

I nod. "Actually the next two or three nights. "And then the one night when we filmed superfruit, you know the random talking episode, we texted and he kind of confessed his feelings for me. But once I've read the particular text and answered, wanting to go over, he was already asleep. But the next night, it was the night Alex arrived we finally found time for each other. And well... the rest is history."

Scott gasps and a moment later his arms wrap around my torso. "God I'm so happy for you, Mitch!"

I giggle and lean into his embrace. "I'm glad that you are. But can you maybe keep it to yourself? We want to see if we're able to make it, iof we're compatible so to say, we want to wait until we're back in LA."

"Of course, Mitchy. I think it's better to wait. But please, let me tell Alex?"

I chuckle at him. "You just need to share your excitement with someone, be honest" I mock him.

"Yes, maybe..." Hah, I caught him red handed.

"But there's more to it, Mitchy" he continues. "We could go on double dates and stuff. I always miss 'us-time' when Alex is around, because I spend so much time going out and most of the time we're alone, because we're the couple and you don't want to be the odd one out. By the way, did you go out on dates already?"

"Yes" I confirm. "Two days, actually. The first one was in Rome in the evening. Dinner date. He wanted to take me to a fancy restaurant but the owner was a homophobic asshole. Quote: We don't tolarate this here."

"Oh no. Hopefully you sassed the hell out of him. I can't believe that such people still exist."

"I told him to get the stick out of his discriminating poor arse. But well in the end we sat at the river and had original Italian pizza. With gluten and real mozzarella cheese" I grin at him. "And it was totally worth it."

"A man who makes you eat gluten and cheese and dresses you up in cute flanells" he shakes his head amused. "Even if I didn't know him already I would totally tell you to marry him someday."

I nod. "Yeah. He's amazing and I hope that once we leave this silly lovey-dovey stage of our relationship we'll still feel the same."

"If you're meant for one another you will" Scott says wisely. "One last question though: Did my Mitch get any this morning? She was in such a good mood!"

"Yes, girl" I simply say.

"Hello? can I get any details?"

"About Avi and me? No? That's for me to know and for you to not even think about!"

"Hey Scott, Mitch? The cabs are here. You coming?" Alex enters the room after knocking to respect our privacy.

"Yep! Can't wait to get into my bed" I point out and nudge Scott with my ellbow as he starts giggling.

"What's wrong with you there?" Alex asks, raising an eyebrow.

"That, dear Alex, is something that Scott will tell you once you're in your room."

An hour later both Avi and I are freshly showered and cuddling up into the huge sheet.

"So he took it well" Avi asks softly.

"Mmmhm, he's so happy for us. The whole thing was a bit surprising but I think he ships it." I play with a strand of his damp hair, twisting it around and releasing it again, forming a cute curl that way. "Ah and he suggested maybe going on a double date. We have some time in... Hamburg, right?"

"Yep. it's right after Amsterdam, where we're going tomorrow at a way too ungodly time." He yawns. "But I'm up to a double date with by boyfriends best friend and his boyfriend" he confirms, making me smile widely.

I kiss him and turn to turn off the lights. "Good Night, Avi."

"Good Night, Babe."

A/N: That's probably the last update on this one before Christmas :( I'll be busy working at the grocery store right until we start celebrating on the 24th and preparing stuff at home. But "That's Christmas to Me" will be updated just as I planned! So if you're in need of some Mavi fluff and smutty parts go read it.

But with me you'll never know! (I'll never know, too, to be honest :D)

So for those who only read this and not the Christmassy stuff:
Have nice holidays, if you're celebrating. Spend some time with your loved ones. And if you don't, just enjoy a few days off or so. Make the most of it!
