Chapter 12

"Good morning, Sweetheart..." 

Avi couldn't help but smile when he heard the raw morning voice of his tall blonde boyfriend. "Hmm... how did you know I was awake, Scotty?"

"You always stir when you're waking up and your breathing quickens. I've had the pleasure of waking up next to you countless times and it has always been the same" Scott explained as he lightly caressed Avi's side.

Avi chuckled and cuddled up closer to his boyfriend. "You're too sweet..."

"I'm not."

"You are." Avi leaned up so that he could look directly into Scott's eyes. "What you did for me, how you were there for me yesterday... that was..."

"Just what you would've done for one of us" Scott intervened, smiling up at his boyfriend. 

Avi didn't need to think about this, he just nodded. "You're right, Love. I would. Without inhibitions."

"See...?" Scott then leaned up to catch Avi's lips in a soft kiss.

"Mmhm..." Avi hummed after they broke apart. "Where's Mitchy?" He then wanted to know. 

"He got up about twenty minutes ago, he's preparing breakfast..." Scott explained. "I just couldn't bring myself to wake you though, you were sleeping soundly."

"Urgh, I have to say that I slept so good. I thought I'd be tossing and turning and up thinking about what happened yesterday, but that just didn't happen." He shrugged his shoulders. 

"I'm glad about that, Avi. Not only for you, but also for me and Mitch. Imagine how much sleep we would've gotten if you were tossing and turning in between us in this small space" Scott said jokingly. 

"Hmm... I've been thinking about that lately..." Avi mused.

"What exactly do you mean?" Scott wanted to know, raising an eyebrow questioningly.

"A new bed, a bigger bed. Don't get me wrong, Scott, your bed is comfortable and I love being close to you and Mitchy at night. But still I feel like more space for us would be beneficial... for more than just sleeping..." Avi grinned at his boyfriend which caused him to shake his head in disbelief. 

"You're unbelievable, but... you're also right" he then replied. "I kind of want to remodel this room anyway. I mean, we've been sleeping here together ever since the beginning of us. And therefore it should be our room. Maybe a bed is the right way to start. Because I agree with you, we could need a bigger bed." 

"Good... that's settled then." Avi pecked Scott's lips once more. "We should start planning as soon as we've got time."

"That we should. And we should include Mitch."

"Include me in what?" Mitch, dressed in yoga-pants and a simple shirt entered the room. 

"Redecorating. We're planning on changing a few things in our bedroom, including the bed... we want to get a bigger one."

"Uuuh, I like the idea" Mitch exclaimed, grinning from ear to ear. "We should get to it once the families have left LA. Because for now, they're still here, including your sister, Avi, who is waiting at the breakfast table." 

"I understand, we're already coming." Avi got out of Scott's embrace and stretched his limbs. 

"Alright, we'll wait" Mitch said cheerfully as he left the bedroom again.

When Avi made his way downstairs with Scott following him, he noticed that Esther was on the phone, talking avidly to what seemed to be their mother.
