Mitch’s POV

‘Comparing him to Travis? Why would I compare him to Travis.’ I thought to myself.

I tried to remember what happens.

After I went to my room I took a shower and went to my desk. Oh no! He must’ve seen the paper but how? I ran to my room and noticed someone obviously went through it.

Now I seriously needed to talk to Scott. But I need to talk to Travis.

Scott’s POV

Have I really been here for eight hours? I look at my phone and it said 9:30 or at least that is what I thought.

I was doing some weights but after a while my side began to hurt so I stopped and did the punching bag.

My alarm went off for the two hours so I headed to the showers. After ten minutes, everything was getting blurry and I began to get dizzy. I got out and dressed in some shorts and a tank then left for home. On the way home I had to pull over a couple of times because I was either sick to my stomach or dizzy and things were blurry.

I called Kirstie to meet me at my apartment. She agreed and headed there.

When I got home, I saw her car but not Mitch’s car. I thought he wanted to talk.

Kirstie’s POV

“Hey Scott!” I said happily.

“Meet me at my apartment. I’ll be there soon. Mitch should be there so just walk in.”

Okay? Is everything okay?”

“Yes.” He lied and I could tell.

“Okay, see you there.”

“Bye!”

That was weird. I grabbed my wallet and keys and headed to Scott and Mitch’s place.

Once I got there I walked in like Scott said to.

“Scott?” It sounded like Mitch.

“No, Kirstie.”

“Oh. Hi Kirst.” He said softly.

“Is everything okay?”

“No. I-I-I saw him again!” Mitch began to cry.

Mitch’s POV

I heard someone open the door and I thought it was Scott.

“Scott?” I asked.

“No, Kirstie.”

“Oh. Hi, Kirst.” I said softly.

I wish Scott would come home.

“Is everything okay?” she asked.

I need tell her I saw Travis again.

“No. I-I-I saw him again!” By the time I finished I was in tears.

“Saw who again?”

“Travis! I saw him again.”

“Who’s Travis? Mitch, I don’t understand.” Kirstie said confused.

I gathered all my strength and explain it to her.

Kirstie’s POV

Travis? I have no idea who Mitch is talking about.

Mitch took a deep breath and said what happened the past couple of days.

“What? Wait hold on. Travis is the guy who kissed you and he still likes you and you have a crush on him?”

“Yes. Scott is going to kill me!” Mitch said loudly.

“No, he isn’t. Speaking of Scott, where is he?”

“He should be home from the gym soon.” Mitch replied. “I’m going to tell Travis that I can’t be with him because I love Scott. Tell Scott I’ll be home later and that we still need to talk.” Mitch continued.

“Okay Mitch. Good luck.” I said giving him a hug.

“Thank-you. Love you Kirst!”

“Love you too.”

Scott came home about fifteen minutes after Mitch left.

Scott’s POV

I saw Kirstie sitting on the couch.

“Kirstie!” I said weakly.

I felt like I was going to pass out so I held myself up by leaning my hand on the wall.

“Scott! Are you okay?”

“No. I feel like I am going to pass out.”

“Here, let’s go to the couch and I’ll grab you some water.”

Kirstie is so nice. She’s the best.

“Thanks Kirst. Where’s Mitch? He wanted to talk to talk about something. He’ll be home later.”

“Okay. I’m tired. I’m going to nap.”

“Okay. Do you want me to stay or leave?”

“Will you stay Kirst? Please.” I ask.

“Of course.”

Mitch’s POV

I finally arrived at Travis’s house. I’m scared of what Travis might do.

I gathered all my strength and went to his door and knocked.

He opened the door and invited me in but I declined his offer.

“Travis. We need to talk.”

“Okay.”

“I like you but not in that way. I can’t be with you; I love Scott.”

“But Mitch did you not feel a spark when we kissed?” Travis said.

“I never thought about it because I don’t like you that way. I wanted to talk about that kiss.” I said.

“What do you want to know about it?”

“Why did you do it? Why did you kiss me?”

“I did it because I thought you were cute. I saw you with that girl but once you left I took my chance and you know the rest.” He said.

“Well you need to stay away from us. I don’t mean to sound rude but you, we, can’t be together.”

I decided to leave but he grabbed my wrist and pulled me back.

“Get your hand off me!” I screamed.

I was able to get away but his grip was strong and left a light bruise around my wrist. I head home and on the way I grabbed some food as an early dinner for Scott, Kirstie, and me.

When I got home, I saw Kirstie and Scott on the couch but Kirstie was crying and Scott was asleep.
