Todrick stays with Pentatonix for a few days. Scott spends almost all day everyday with him.

During the shows, Scott and Todrick tease each other. After the shows, they still don't leave each others sides.

This upsets Mitch.

*In the bus. Everyone is asleep except for Mitch and Kirstie*

Mitch: I don't know, Kirstie. I'm trying not to be jealous. He told me nothing is going on and I trust my boyfriend. I always have..it's..it's just...

Kirstie: Difficult to trust relationships after Travis cheated on you and lied about it?

Mitch looks down and nods.

Mitch: I know Scott is different. He would never do that...it's just..hard. I miss him! Ever since Todrick started doing shows with us, he has spent no time with me other than during the show..and even then he is messing with Todrick..

Kirstie moves over and sits next to Mitch on the couch. As he looks down and plays with his hands, she hugs him in comfort.

Kirstie: It will be okay, Mitch. What you and Scott have is special. He wouldn't waste that. You mean everything to him.

Mitch: It doesn't feel like it..

Kirstie: Mitch, every time you weren't around, even back in school, Scott would talk about you non-stop.

He looks over at her.

Kirstie: He would say how he misses you and how amazing you are. How cute you looked that day, how you're such a good singer. Everything. You mean a lot to him.

Mitch smiles and looks down. Once again, his cheeks are a slight red.

Mitch: H-he said that?

Kirstie: Every time you weren't with us. Even these days.

His blush goes darker.

Kirstie: You should get some sleep. It's late.

Mitch: I will in a bit.. I think I'm gonna stay up for a while.

Kirstie: Okay..

She kisses his cheek.

Kirstie: If you need anything, just ask. Goodnight Mitchie!

He smiles faintly.

Mitch: Goodnight girl.

*The next day*

As the group wake up, Scott makes breakfast. Todrick is first to get up.

Todrick: Hey shithead!

He says as he smacks Scott's head.

Scott laughs.

Scott: Hey! Easy asswipe!

He continues to cook as they laugh.

Todrick sits on the couch.

Kevin: What are you making?

Kevin asks as he walks in the bus kitchen.

Scott: A Buffett, really.

Kevin: Awesome! You're the best, Scotty!

As he finishes cooking, Kirstie and Avi walk in.

Avi: Smells great, man!

Kirstie: You're such a sweetheart, Scott.

As they all eat breakfast, Scott can't help but to notice Mitch is being unusually quiet.

Scott: Hey, does anyone know where Mitch is?

He asks.

They all shake their heads.

Kirstie: Still in bed isn't he?

Scott: I'll go check.

He gets up from the couch and walks to the back room. He sees Mitch sleeping in the big bed.

Sitting by him on the bed, Scott gently places his hand on Mitch's shoulder.

He kisses Mitch's cheek.

Feeling his lips on his face, Mitch moves and wakes up a bit.

Scott: Morning sleepyhead!

He smiles.

Scott: I didn't mean to wake you. You just looked so cute and peaceful.

Mitch turns his head and tries to go back to sleep.

Scott: What's wrong?

He asks, looking concerned.

Mitch stays quiet.

Scott: Are you feeling sick again?

Again, he is quiet.

Scott: Mitch?

Nothing.

He sighs and gets up, then kisses his head.

Scott: There's breakfast out here if you want some. Sleep well, cutie. Sorry to bother you...

He leaves the room.

While Scott eats breakfast with their friends, Mitch can't fall back asleep.

As the day goes on, Scott and Todrick hang out with each other. Leaving Mitch feeling left out.

He begins to tear up.
