(Mitch)

'I am kinda worried about Scott but I don't know what I can do to help him if he doesn't let me in...' Mitch was so busy thinking about Scott that he almost walked into a tree.

"LOOK OUT" was the last thing he heard before Scott pulled him away from the tree. "Omg, thanks Scott! You saved me!" Mitch realized that he almost walked into that tree and probably seconds later hit the ground.

"It's nothing..." Scott blushed a bit and scratched his neck.
Mitch hugged Scott and now Mitch started blushing as well.

Soon they walked further and they could see the mall in the distance.
"The last one is a purple egg with yellow spots!" Mitch run as fast as he could as soon as he said that sentence. "Purple with yellow spots? That's all?" Scott laughed and tried to win.
Mitch thought in himself: "I am totally going to win this" when seconds later Scott finished first.
"Damn it, you won" Mitch and Scott were both out of breath and they started laughing.

They walked into the mall and Mitch grabbed his shopping list.

"You made a shopping list? Who does that anymore?" Scott was always making fun of everyone and everything

"Laugh as hard as you want, but don't come to me when you forget something if you're ever going to the mall by yourself"

"I like you when you're sassy" Scott smiled

Mitch started blushing 'Stop it! He likes you as a good friend, nothing more... WAIT WHAT? Is that really MY thought? Omg since when do I like him? Do I even like him? Well I like him as a friend of course, but is he more than a friend?'

"Mitch, which one: light or zero?" Scott was already looking for drinks.

"uhhhhhmmm..." Mitch was not even sure what the question was but he answered: "I don't really care, you can pick." 

Scott picked light and put it down in the shopping cart. Mitch was getting dinner for tonight while he was thinking about Scott. 'What if I really like him? Should I tell him? No! that can change our friendship and I don't want anything to change, I like it how it is now and I don't even know if I really like him that way. Okey Mitch, think of something different, What do I want to eat tonight?'

Mitch walked over to the vegetables and quickly decided that he's not buying veggies for tonight, he wanted something different. He walked over to the right side of the store. On this side were the 'self-made' packages. Mitch immidently saw a package that said: 'Make your own sushi' 

'Scott loves sushi! This sounds super fun, I want to try it!' Mitch was really exited now. He is about to walk over to the shopping cart and... 'Wait,  where is the shopping cart? And where is Scott?' Mitch is a bit confused but then... "BOO!" Scott was laughing a lot. "Scott!!! You scared me!" "That was my intention" Scott had a big smile on his face and couldn't stop smiling. 

They walked over to the checkout. "What do we eat for dinner?" "Surprise" Mitch smiled and Scott didn't like it, he just wanted to know what he was going to put in his mouth!

As soon as they came home they packed away the stuff and Mitch hid the sushi package. "No for real Mitch what are we eating?" Scott and Mitch were still talking about the food. "I will tell you... SOON!" Mitch started laughing. "Haha, that's so mean! now I know how all the pentaholics feel!" Now is Scott laughing as well. "Okey I will give you a hint: We are going to cook together!" 'Making sushi together, that sounds so cute! Stop it Mitch! You need to make sure that this feeling goes back were it came from! Scott would feel so awkward knowing this...' "Okey, okey, We are going to make sushi!" Scott started laughing. "That was not what I was expecting but it sounds really fun!"

Half an hour later they stand in the kitchen making sushi. "This is really fun!" "Told you" "You're such a dork haha" Mitch really enjoys making sushi with Scott. Mitch noticed something on Scott's face. "There sits some rice on... euhmmm... on your... wait" Mitch gently wipes away the rice on Scott's face. Mitch and Scott are really close to each other now. Mitch leans a bit forward but he knows that Scott is not going to kiss him, but he can always try. Mitch closes his eyes and leans a bit further. He noticed that Scott does the same. Is it going to happen? Is he going to kiss? At that moment they fall on top of each other. Mitch on top and Scott under Mitch. "Ehmmm well that was awkward..." "yeah it was..." They started to talk real slow. "do we need to get up?" "No we don't need to, the sushi can wait..." Mitch lays his head on Scott's chest and listens to Scott's gentle voice that was almost whispering. Scott placed his arm around Mitch. "Mitch?" Mitch looked at Scott. Scott's mouth was really close at the mouth of Mitch. This was the moment that it all happend. Scott found the courage and kissed Mitch. Mitch was surprised for a second but not long after that he starts enjoying Scott instead of worrying. 

After the long kiss Mitch placed his head in the position as it was before and enjoyed Scott's soft chest. Scott's arm was still around Mitch. They laid there and hugged for a long time. Mitch almost fell asleep because Scott felt so comfortable and safe. "Should we get up?" "Wait a second... Let me enjoy this for a little longer please" and Mitch laid his head down again and fell asleep on the floor together with Scott.
