A/N: Wow over a thousand reads. That's practically incomprehensible to me. Thank you so much to everyone. So there's something of a time jump in this chapter. I'm going to put it about early 2013.

The ever present tension between us is about a hundred times more unbearable at the moment. We're both single, which we haven't been since the sing-off. She broke up with him two weeks ago but this is the first time I've seen her since then. Scott and Mitch told us that she was getting over it and that she wasn't as upset as she had been. She looks fine. Better than fine obviously. Her hair is darker than I'm used to and she's wearing her glasses. I don't think she has any idea how disarmingly gorgeous she is.

We're in the lounge of Mitch and Scott's flat. Kevin's meeting a friend and Scott and Mitch have disappeared somewhere. "I think I'm going to go and look for the others." Kirstie says getting up. 'I'll go with you.' As soon as I've said it I feel like an idiot. It's not as if she needs help to find her best friends in their flat. 'Um ok.'

We walk into the kitchen first. 'They're probably in one of their rooms, right?' I'm annoyed with myself for deciding to help her look for them. I could've quite easily just stayed where I was and avoided spending time alone with her. 'Yeah, I don't know why I didn't think of that.' She laughs 'I think I'm having a bit of a slow day.' We walk towards Scott's room and just before we get there I reach out and put my hand on her arm. She flinches and turns around 'Kirst, I just wanted to say that if you ever need to talk to me, about the break up or whatever, that I'm here.' I want to be a good friend. I don't want the fact that I'm still attracted to her to get in the way of that. 'Just, if you need anything, I'm here for you.'

She smiles and removes her arm from my grasp to place it on my shoulder. She stands on her tiptoes to kiss my cheek and I feel myself blushing as I turn slowly to face her. Her mouth is an inch away from mine and I know exactly what's going to happen next. It's no time at all before my lips are on hers and she's struggling to open the door as I pull her into my arms. We manage to make it onto the bed and I settle myself on top of her, trying not to put too much of my weight on her body. I moan too loudly as she flicks her tongue against mine and wraps her legs around me. She uses my distraction to flip us over so that she's sat on top of me, straddling my waist. We break apart and she sits up and grins at me.

I've never seen anything so hot. Her glasses came off a while ago so I can see the way her eyes have darkened. Her lips are slightly swollen, her hair is messy and her skin is flushed and she's sitting on top of me grinning. I grab her and pull her back down so that she's lying across my chest and reconnect my lips to hers. This time it's her who moans as I run my hands up her back underneath her shirt. She pulls me up into a sitting position and lifts off my t-shirt, running her hands across my chest. The skin on skin contact makes the kiss even more overwhelming and the movement of her mouth against mine becomes increasingly frantic. I move my hands down to the bottom of her shirt and tug it up slightly, breaking the kiss to wordlessly ask for her permission. She rolls her eyes and pulls it over her head, leaving me breathless at having her in my arms like this.

I flip us over again so that she is lying on her back underneath me and start kissing down her neck. Trailing my lips slowly downwards, causing her to moan in frustration. She quickly gets tired of my lack of speed and pulls my face up towards hers. My heart is beating so quickly it's almost scary and my whole body feels like it's craving her. We place our foreheads together for a moment, breathing heavily and preparing to recommence our kiss. As I'm leaning my mouth back towards hers there is a loud coughing noise from somewhere behind us. I spring away from her and look round to see Mitch and Scott standing there.

'What are you doing here?' Kirstie asks, obviously embarrassed. 'Well it is my room.' Scott replies calmly. Shit. This is Scott's room. This shouldn't have happened at all, let alone on Scott's bed. 'You guys might want to put your clothes back on.' Mitch adds. He's trying to sound stern but there's a hint of gossipy excitement in his tone. We hurriedly get dressed and Kirstie picks up her glasses from the floor. 'Mitch, Avi. Could you give us a moment?' 'Um. Sure.' I don't really know what to say to Kirstie so I just squeeze her hand and walk out of the room, Mitch following behind me.

I really thought I was over this. Until today I actually believed that I was. Even when Jess and I had broken up (we weren't too good at dealing with how often I was away) she still had Matt and so for the last year and a bit we'd been able to just be friends. We hung out with everyone completely normally and yeah maybe I checked her out a little too often but that wasn't really that weird. Pretty much every guy checked Kirstie out. I didn't feel jealous of her and Matt. She seemed happy with him and I knew that we weren't right for each other.

When they broke up it came as a bit of a surprise. It was during a rare bit of time off from our ridiculously busy schedule. We didn't really discuss relationship stuff and I hadn't seen her in a while. Scott ended up telling me and Kevin so that we didn't upset her by bringing it up. I was sad that she was unhappy but that was it. 'Avi?' Mitch's voice brings me out of my thoughts. 'You ok?' He doesn't look mad like Scott did, he looks like he finds the whole thing hilarious. I nod awkwardly. 'So you and Kirstie then?'

A/N: So I've had an idea for another story. It would be a Kavi story as well and it would be a high school AU with all of them but then they'd still go on to form Pentatonix. If people are interested in me writing it then I'll get the stuff I've got so far together and start posting it alongside this story
