Falling - A Pentatonix Story

Kirstie's POV
"Avi?" I asked from the same position as from the tour bus.

"Yes, Kit?"

"We really should go to the lobby so we can meet everyone up for the show."

We really should."

"But you're more comfy than the dress I picked out."

Avi kissed me on the lips, and I kissed back. Before anything happened, we pulled away.

"It's 4:55, and we need to meet at 5, let's go, hon."

"Fine," I grumbled as I rolled off of him. We headed down to the lobby, arriving before everyone else. Besides Esther, of course. We held hands the way down, and sat on the couch cuddling once again.

"I'm jealous of y'all," Esther laughed, noticing us.

"Kevin seems to be, too," Avi teased. Esther blushed, and Avi smirked.

"I don't know what you're talking about," she muttered.

"Oh come on, you totally like him," I giggled.

"It's obvious," Avi added on.

"So? Maybe it's a tiny teeny crush, but that's because I've basically been living with him. I mean, I've been deprived of anyone normal for like 5 months. Besides, he doesn't like me back," she rambled.

"A, one and a half months," Avi replied.

"And B, he totally likes you!"

"He does."

"You don't know that."

"He's my best friend."

"I'm a girl. I can tell."

"I am, too."

"You can never tell when it's your own crush."

With that, Kevin came jogging down the stairs.

"3 flights of stairs, eh?" Avi asked.

"You know it," he smiled. "What did I miss?"

"Nothing," Esther quickly replied. Avi and I tried to hide our smirks. Scott and Mitch headed out of the elevator, and we all went to the arena. This is one of our sold out shows, so we were all really excited.

We didn't bother doing very long of a rehearsal before hand, only long enough to test our mics. We did do vocal warmups in our dressing room, though.

"That was an amazing show," Kevin smiled. It was extremely high energy, being sold out and all. It still amazes me we sell shows out. I also feel really bad, with no seats left, not everyone can come. It is fun to have sold out shows though.

We all agree, and head to some pizza place after getting in some normal clothes. After eating, we have tired down a little.

It's kind of like doing drugs at shows. I mean, we don't obviously, and no one should ever ever do drugs. But, it's like a high. A caffeine high is a better way to put it. You have so much energy you're amazed you'll be able to sleep to tonight. Then, you crash. You're super tired, and need sleep immediately. That's when it's fun to cuddle with Avi. We're both really tired and cuddly.

We head back to the hotel and go to our rooms, not bothering to do any drinking, cello practicing, or whatever Avi and I usually do. Esther, of course, isn't as tired. Kevin makes her go to sleep.
