Tease? (Mavi)

Reunited After The Season

A/N: Hey guys! As you can see, I took a little break over Christmas to spend it with family and friends, but I'm back now! I finally got to get 'A Pentatonix Christmas' and I'm totally obsessed with it. O come all ye faithful is my fave right now. What's yours?

We left off with a date a couple days before Christmas, so I thought I'd resume after Christmas because Mitch and Avi would have spent their holidays apart anyway. This is them reuniting after coming back home.

Mitch's POV

I step into my house with multiple bags in my arms full of presents I received and the clothes I brought home to wear. With a grunt, I place everything on the floor in the living room and sit down. The trip home took a lot out of me. It was at this point that I realized that today was when we agreed to exchange our gifts within PTX.

"You're home!" I hear my tall housemate call from the top of the stairs, running down them efficiently.

"You beat me here! Where's Wyatt? I need to say hi to my baby" I immediately revert my attention to the cat that I spotted in the corner of the room. He saunters over and sits on my lap, allowing me to pet him.

"I guess you found him. I missed you! How was Christmas?" Scott asked politely, even though he was virtually live updated via snapchat.

"It was awesome! I really missed my parents, and it was great to see all my other relatives too. I have so much stuff to find a place for now."

"Me too, oh my god. By the way, we were supposed to exchange gifts with the band today. I have yours upstairs if you want to do it now..." Scott prodded, and I nodded my head with a giddy smile.

"Of course! I'll go get mine too" I reply instantly, almost cutting him off.

We both run upstairs to our respective rooms and grab our gifts for the rest of the band. It would probably be a good idea to invite them over so that we can exchange all the gifts now. Clearly Scott and I had similar thoughts, because someone was already ringing the doorbell. I run downstairs with my gifts to answer it.

"Hey queen! Merry Christmas" Kirstie greets me immediately, stepping inside with 4 large gifts.

"Merry Christmas!" I enthusiastically shout back, walking into the living room with her.

Scott returns to the living room and greets Kirstie as always. I take out my phone to text Avi and Kevin about coming over.

M: 'Hey guys, we're exchanging gifts at our house now if you want to drop by'

I sent the text to both of them before putting my phone away and handing Kirstie her gift from me. She opened it in record speed.

"Ahhhh I love it!" She screamed, turning to me with a hug. "Thank you so much Mitch, Olaf and Pascal are going to love these toys, and they won't be boring to play with for me either." I got her two ball shaped reindeer toys for the dogs.

"You're very welcome! I hope they like them" I happily reply.

"They will. I hope you like this" Kirstie says, handing me one of the huge presents she brought in.

I open it to find a large piece of word art with the lyrics to a lot of our songs forming my face on the album cover for our original album. That has to be the coolest thing I've ever been given, I don't know how she found the time.

"This is SO cool Kirstie! Did you make it? I can't believe how awesome it is" I say, completely taken aback.

"I did make it! I had a few days, so I made one for everyone in the band, as kind of a congrats for how far we've come." She explained.

"Thank you so much, I'll read all the lyrics later and probably cry."

"Same" Scott chimes in, opening his as he hands his gift to Kirstie. They exchange thank you's as Kirstie reveals a beautiful dress with red and green all over it. Scott really gave good presents this year.

"I guess we should exchange ours too, Scott." I suggest.

"Oh yeah, we kind of forgot, oops" he stated in response, scratching the back of his head.

We hand each other a card and start to giggle at our similarity. We burst out laughing when we both open 'roommate coupons' that give us the opportunity to have the other do the dishes for the night, or vacuum, etc. We are the same person sometimes, I'm convinced.

"Thank you" we both state in unison before laughing even more at how much we relate. I feel my phone vibrate in my pocket.

A: 'We're here! Sorry I didn't reply before, Scott had already texted me so I was driving.' I quickly hop up to greet Avi at the door.

Avi and Kevin walk in with presents as well, and the rest of the group finally exchanges gifts. Kevin and Avi already received their gifts from Scott, but they hadn't given him his yet, so they got him an apron with a muscular, shirtless Santa on it. He laughed and assured them that he would wear it unironically. They also opened their word art from Kirstie and accepted it graciously. They each gave her a makeup palette that she probably told them she wanted. Then came me.

"Here you guys go" I said, handing Avi and Kevin their gifts. They opened them to receive CDs featuring my personal remixes of their favourite songs. Little did Avi know, his were very love-themed. I smiled at their affectionate chorus of thank you's and accepted their gift to me.

"Sorry we only got you one thing, we're both super busy and also didn't know what to get" Avi apologized, but I waved it off.

I opened their gift and immediately put a hand over my mouth. $300 for vetements is a really good amount of money for a gift card.

"Thank you guys so much! I can't wait to get a bunch of awesome clothes!" I practically squealed.

"You're welcome, Mitchie" Avi answers for them both, giving me a playful wink that no one else noticed.

We literally just discussed the whole teasing thing, and now he's finding ways to tease me again. You're smooth, Mr. Kaplan. The rest of the time everyone was at our house was filled with idle conversation about Christmas. We felt so mature discussing all the standard, boring topics that one does when catching up.

"Are we planning anything for New Years?" Kirstie brought up out of the blue.

"I think we should" I answer, hoping to get another chance to kiss Avi.

"Our house is always open on New Years, you guys know that" Scott adds, greeted by a bunch of nods.

"It's settled then, New Years party here?" I double checked.

"Yup." Scott stated outright for the rest of the group.

Let's see how drunk Mitch and Avi interact when the situation calls for a kiss. Hopefully for me, it does end up happening.
