PB + J (A Scömíche Fan Fic)

My Neighbor Totoro

A/N Idk how I feel about the last part of this chapter but whatever! Go with the gut. Hope y'all enjoy. I'll be updating again soon.

Mitch's POV

"Come stay the night with me," as I heard him speak these words my heart jumped with joy. Oh, did I want to but Travis. What would he do? I lifted my head up from his shoulder and my hand slipped away from his, "I can't."

"Why not?" He quickly asked leaning forward, trying to capture my attention as I looked away.

"Travis." I whispered.

"Travis won't do any harm-"

"Yes he will, he'll hurt me. Or even worse, he'll hurt you." I said sharply.

He grabbed my limp, hand and held it tightly, "Nothing can hurt you while you're in my arms." He put my hand up to his chest and I uncurled it across his sweater and felt his heart beat. I smiled at his cute gesture.

Then my smile changed to a frown, "What about you?"

He put his hand to my unshaven face, "Don't worry about me." He smiled with his perfect teeth.

I was lost in his stormy blue eyes, I leaned forward as he did. I stared at his pink lips then suddenly I closed my eyes and we kissed. I felt sparks fly as I rested my lips on his.

I pulled away fast, I couldn't do this. I needed to get home to Travis with his drinks.

"Mitch, please. Don't think about him," he said reading my mind.

"Just let me take care of you, the least I could do is invite you over to help you bandage some of your injuries. Please Mitch?" He pleaded to me. I could smell his cologne rise off of him, it made me want to hug him and never let go.

I smiled and nodded, "It couldn't hurt to come over for a couple hours.."

Joy spread across his face, he jumped up and pulled me with him. He slid his hand slyly into mine and curled his fingers around my hand as I did the same. We swung are arms back and forth as we walked to Kevin's apartment.

Scott's POV

I followed behind Mitch into the house and wrapped my arms around his waist. He jumped at first, startled but he calmed down.

I shushed him quietly and whispered, "It's okay, it's just me."

He rested his arms on mine and we swayed back and forth. After a moment of just swaying peacefully he removed my arms and turned around to face me. He rested his hand on my cheek and smiled.

"You have such an amazing jaw line." He said in his beautiful voice.

I smiled and turned red from embarrassment.

"Mitchie.." I whined looking down.

He threw his head back, laughing, "It's true! You do.."

I pressed my lips against his, surprising him. I ran my fingers through his dark colored hair. When we came up for air, Mitch gasped, "We should.." He gulped for some more air, "We should slow down."

I nodded breathlessly.

"Did he get your legs?" I asked him.

He shrugged, "Mostly just my arms." He pulled off his jacket revealing a big cut that ran up from the outside of his elbow to half way up his forearm. It was stained with blood that wasn't cleaned up.

"He threw me across the room, making me trip and my arm snagged on the edge of a table," he said looking away.

I felt my heart sink as he talked about Travis hurting him. I grabbed his hands and held them up by my chin.

"Let's go clean up your cut." I said trying to smile. He gave me a reassured look as I leaded him to the bathroom. I took out a towel and prepared it by soaking it under the water and then ringing it out so it was damp enough and started to dab his injury. He sat down on the closed toilet seat and winced when I touched his arm.

"I'm sorry," I apologized as I cleaned him up.

He shook his head, "It's not your fault."

"How about we watch a movie afterward?" I asked trying to change the subject.

He grinned with his cute dimples, "That sounds nice."

Dark purple bruised ran up his arm, I tried avoiding them as I bandaged him. I wanted to cry every time he winced at the pain I was causing him.

I finished up taking care of him and then took him into the living room. I sat him down on the couch as I picked out the movie My Neighbor Totoro and popped it in the DVD player.

I plopped myself right next to him and leaned my head on his shoulder. He giggled, "Not Totoro again!!"

I smiled and picked my head up, "Too bad!!" I teased him. I put my head lightly on his lap, silently asking for his approval. He brushed his fingers through my hair showing that it was okay.

I'm glad he agreed to come over, I don't know if I could handle him going home to Travis. I just hope I can convince him to stay long.

About a quarter though the movie when Mei meets Totoro in the forest, Mitch had asked me if we could cuddle. Obviously I said yes. I sat up and he laid his head on my chest and I stroked his shinny, black hair. His legs were up on the couch behind him, curled up. I stared at his new boot, I still feel awful for what Mitch had to go through. A car crash must be traumatizing, and I still feel like it's mostly my fault.

"Scott?" He called for me timidly.

"Yes?" I responded with a smile.

He giggled, "Just making sure you're still awake.." His head moved up and down with my breathing as he watched the movie attentively.

Suddenly I heard a small whisper, "I love you, Scott."

Butterflies in my stomach fluttered around at the thought of Mitch feeling the same way I do.

"I love you too," I whispered in his ear and then pecked a kiss on his head. I felt a smile creep on his face as I said those words.

Scott's POV

I opened my eyes and ran my fingers through my hair. Then I remembered last night. I sat up quickly, giving myself a head ache and blurring my vision. I felt around until I found my glasses, I slipped them over my ears. Mitch wasn't anywhere to be found, he must have gone back Travis. I picked up my phone and checked every room. He really was gone. I'm so stupid, we both know he can't be with me. Travis will get angry and who knows what will happen. Plus Mitch and I work together, we're in a band together. We can't just like date.. This is when I knew what had to be done. I pulled my phone out and called Kirstie.

"Hello?" She said in her perky voice.

"Um.. Kirstie?" I said shakily.

"Yes Scott?"

"Remember when Mitch was is the hospital?"

She paused, "Who could forget?"

"And we went to visit him when he was starting to get really sick from the blood loss and.. Yeah?"

"Yes.."

I hesitated, "And he leaned over and whispered something to you."

I could hear her smile from the other side of the phone.

"And?" She asked playfully.

I laughed, "What did he say?!"

"He said.." She paused again.

"Uhhg! Kirstie!! Tell me!" I whined.

She giggled, "Okay, okay.. He told me that if anything happened he wanted me to tell you that he loves you. And he also said that if nothing happens and everything is okay that someday you'd be his. And he raged on about some Liam guy somewhere in there."

I laughed, "Thanks Kirst."

"Your welcome." She said to me just before hanging up the phone.
