"Mitch!"

Mitch freezes at the sound, then quickly begins to walk faster.

"Mitchie! I know you heard me!"

Scott gigantic feet come stomping down the corridor as he runs to catch up with Mitch. Mitch looks back quickly, realising there was no escape.

"Hi, Scott."

Scott goes in for the hug, and Mitch freezes, uncomfortable. Scott pulls away, totally oblivious.

"Hey! I wanted to tell you something. Oh, but first," he swings his bag to his front and pulls a cup out of the bottle holder, "I got you a latte!"

"Oh, what a surprise!" Mitch chirps, taking the latte.

It isn't a surprise. He does this everyday.

"Only the best for a superstar like you!" He cheeses. Mitch internally cringes.

"You look amazing today."

Mitch could see the hearts forming in his pupils. He worships the ground Mitch walks on.

He'd be decently cute if he wasn't so damn annoying.

"What was it that you wanted to tell me?" Mitch begins to walk away, knowing well Scott would follow.

"Well, I went down to Cosco yesterday, and I saw your dad! I introduced myself, of course, and he asked how I knew you. He said you've talked about me, and he wondered if I'd invite my family over to yours for dinner! Isn't that swell?"

Mitch feels his heart drop in his chest, but cheers to being a great actress.

"Just peachy!" He is going to kill Mike when he gets home.

"Hey, I wanted to ask you something."

"Shoot." Mitch's legs ache from the increasing pace.

"Are you needed in the team meeting today at 3?"

"No." Damn it, he should've said yes.

"Great! We can go have lunch together or something. I know this amazing barbecue place down the road-"

"I'm vegan."

"I know! But don't worry! They have salad, too!"

Mitch physically feels his eye twitch.

"Scott," he abruptly stops, causing the lanky blonde to stumble beside him, "listen, I-"

He pauses.

Mitch can't explain it.

The boy was the lamest person he had ever met; clingy, clumsy, an all around mess. But for some stupid reason, he just couldn't reject him. Staring at him with those stupid, hope-filled blue eyes, Scott waits patiently for Mitch to continue.

"How about I choose the place, and I'll let you know?" Mitch sighs, already regretting his word choice.

Scott seems to inflate like a helium balloon before Mitch even finishes his statement. It's amazing how he can give so little; the boy will take it and run with it.

"O- Okay! That's perfect! I'll be in my office, but I know where yours is! I would call you but you said your phone was acting up! I can just go over to your office at 2:57 and we can walk down to my car. I heard yours broke down. Sorry about that!"

Mitch had just posted that on Facebook not more than 20 minutes ago.

"Great." Mitch flashes a strained smile and continues back to his office.

"Bye, Mitch!" Even with his back turned, he can practically feel Scott waving. He takes a sip of his latte, sighing.

"Goodbye, Scott."
