Falling - A Pentatonix Story

"So, it's a rest day," Avi says happily to me, pulling his arm tighter around my waist from behind me.

"It is," I reply, sinking further into my pillow. He won't let me go back to sleep.

"Can we do stuff?" He whines, noticing how tired I am.

"Fine," I say, turning over to face him unhappily.

"Fine, what do you want to do today instead?" he sighs.

"Watch Disney movies," I smile, finally happy about our plans.

"I suppose."

"Yay!" I cheer, sitting up in bed.

"We should get ready for the day, though. Esther says we should have a "group starbucks breakfast" at 8."

"It's 7."

"That's why I woke you."

"An hour early?"

"Let's be real, you can't get ready in two hours, much less one."

"Fine," I say, sad I have to be up at such an early hour.

"Why's she wanna meet?" I ask as I choose an outfit.

"Go over tour and talk, I'd assume. Have they told scomiche about kesther?"

"I don't believe so. It never really came up, I guess. I'm pretty sure Scott and Mitch could figure it out though. Scott isn't that blond."

"True. Do you think Scott and Mitch will finally tell us today?"

"About?"

"Oh come on, Kirst. It's obvious they're dating."

"Agreed. Maybe, maybe not? I literally only want to watch movies today."

Avi laughs as he gets dressed, while I head into the bathroom to do my makeup. I am just seeing the guys, but I might as well put mascara and foundation on. Maybe fans will want to take pictures.

"So, we have twenty extra minutes. You nailed it, a new personal record," Avi says when we're all done getting ready and sitting on the hotel couch.

"Shut up," I laugh.

We spend the rest of that time cuddling and scrolling through our social medias. From what we're tagged in, we get most of our three main ships. Everyone seems to be caught up in our show from two nights ago, still. The scomiche shippers are freaking out over Heart Eyes Hoying- if only they could see what we see on a daily basis. The small community dedicated to kesther that Avi and I are tagged in don't really have anything, complaining about how Kesther isn't real.

Au contraire.

"We should probably head to the lobby to meet with Esther," Avi announces when its 7:54.

"We should."

Once everybody gets down to the lobby, we get in the rental car.

"Why do we even have to go to starbucks for a meeting? I mean, I love starbucks, but I also like sitting in my bed," Scott asks once we start driving.

"Because. We can.. get out?" Esther replies.

"That's stupid. I'd rather be watching Tangled."

"Well, that's too bad."

All of us take our turns complaining, and by that time we're at the Starbucks Kevin drove us to. Esther takes responsibility of getting each of our usuals. How does she even know us this well. I mean sure, we've toured with her for six years, but even I tune myself out sometimes. We get annoying.
