All of the kids were finally in bed and asleep, meaning that Scott and Mitch had the house all to themselves. They were in bed together and Mitch was cuddled up into Scott's side. The blonde ran his hand up and down Mitch's back, focused on the show that was playing on the TV. Both men were very content with just being in each other's arms at the moment.

Scott turns to look at Mitch, a smile forming on his face.

"What? Why are you looking at me like that, Scott?" Mitch asks, turning his attention away from the TV. The blonde just smiles more and snakes his arm around Mitch's head, securing his hand there. He then brings Mitch's lips to meet his own and they share a slow, sweet kiss.

They pull apart and Scott smiles. "I love you."

"I love you too, Scotty." Mitch says, resting their foreheads together. They lay like this for awhile before anyone speaks up.

"Mitch I... You know what? Nevermind it's stupid anyways." Scott says, brushing himself off. Mitch moves away slightly so that he can see his boyfriend completely. From the small amount of light coming from the TV, Mitch can see Scott blushing.

"What is it, Scott?" He asks, moving a strand of hair out of the blonde's face. "You know that you can tell me anything, so what's up?"

Scott plays with his hands for a moment, not knowing how to put his words together. Mitch waits for him to be ready and just takes one of his hands. Mitch had never seen his boyfriend so nervous before. Scott looks up to meet Mitch's gaze and smiles. He takes in a deep breath before finally speaking up.

"Mitch I-I want you t-to move in with me." Scott says, cursing himself from stuttering so much. Mitch doesn't seem to mind though because he pulls Scott into a sweet kiss. "So, is that a yes or are you saying sorry? I totally get it if it's a no. We haven't been together that long and you probably don't want to rush into things. I shouldn't have even ask-"

"Woah." Mitch says, chuckling slightly. "Just slow down there, Scotty."

"Sorry." Scott says, looking down. His cheeks are now even redder and Mitch is finding it adorable. The brunette gently lifts Scott's chin up, forcing the blonde to look him in the eyes.

"Well, I do have to ask my kids first. I can't make any sort of finalize decision without them." Mitch says. After a moment a large smile fills his face. "Other than that i'd love too."

Scott smiles as well and pulls Mitch closer, his breath hot on the shorter man's lips. Scott attaches their lips together and starts passionately kissing his boyfriend. He was just happy that Mitch wanted to move in with him. Scott figured that his kids would be happy with it. They had all bonded a lot over the last month. Now all Scott had to do was wait until tomorrow, where they could ask their kids what they thought.

Everyone had gathered in the living room per Scott's request. The kids were just waiting for one of their dad's to speak up. Mitch and Scott were holding hands and Scott decided that he would speak up first.

"So, as you know Mitch and I have been dating for a little while now." Scott says, not wanting to rush into the topic at hand. He didn't want one of the kids to storm off again. "In a relationship there are certain steps that you take. For instance when Mitch and I became official or said 'I love you'."

"Where is this going?" Blake asks cautiously, asking the question on all three of the kids minds. The two adults look at each other, Mitch finally being the one to speak up.

"Scott asked me to move in with him." Mitch says, a smile on his face. "This decision affects all of us so I wanted to ask all of you before answering."

"Dad, I think it's pretty clear what your answer has to be." Blake says, matching his father's large smile. "I've never seen you this happy before and we basically spend every night here anyways."

"For once in my life I have to agree with my idiot of a brother." Zoey says, receiving a light punch in the arm from Blake. This causes everyone to laugh as they all shift their gazes to Asher.

"What about you Ash?" Scott asks, looking at his son. He just nod his head enthusiastically, making everyone else in the room crack up again. "Well, I guess it's up to you now, Mitch. Will you move in with me?"

"Of course I will, you goofball." Mitch chuckles. Scott smiles and pulls him into a bone crushing hug. Everyone let's out small hoots and cheers and soon they're all in one massive group hug. This is how things were supposed to be, Scott was sure of it.
