Duet: an Avi Kaplan fanfic

Everyone finds out

 

That night, after Avi and I watched The Hobbit and I struggled not to fall asleep, I went home feeling like I was on a cloud. In my house, nothing ever, and I mean ever, stays a secret. Mel, Livvie and I can all just read each other that well. So when I come home like that, I get quite a few questions.

 

“Where were you today?” “What’s up with you?” “What was the ‘thing’ you had to go do?” and so on and so forth. I wait and then when they stop to breath, I tell them.

 

“So, Avi asked for my number last night and we went to a park today. Then later we went to his house and watched The Hobbit.”

 

Stunned silence.

 

“You must really like him if you would watch The Hobbit. I mean, what happened to all those years of swearing off J.R.R. Tolkien and everything he ever wrote, not to mention the movies that came after that?” Livvie prods

 

“Well, I was trying so hard to stay awake. I was bored as hell with that movie and was really paying more attention to Avi than to the movie.” I admit.

 

“So are you dating him now?”

 

“Yes”

 

Lots of excited squeals.

 

“Have you kissed yet?”

 

“Yes” I blush scarlet.

 

 

 

A few days later, we’re hanging out with the band. I have never really been that interested in Mitch, I don’t know why, but nope. But he’s actually really funny, so sassy. It’s the greatest thing. I swear, Kevin is the sweetest guy ever, aside from Avi. Kirstie is so much like my little sister, Carissa, it blows my mind. I still don’t like Scott, but he’s friends with the others, so I’ll put up with him.

 

“Hey, Arya, how are things going with Avi? Has he told PTX about you guys yet?” I practically jump out of my skin, Mel had snuck up on me.

 

“Oh, everything’s great. He is the sweetest and really funny. We’re into a lot of the same stuff, he promised that he would teach me to overtone sing.” I drop my voice so Scott and Mitch, who are standing near us won’t hear me. “And, he’s a pretty good kisser.”

 

“WHAT?!?!” Kirstie had been closer than I thought and overheard. “YOU KISSED AVI?” She is shrieking which means that everyone whips around to see what she is yelling about.

 

“When?!?” Kevin was giving Avi a look that clearly said, ‘I can’t believe you didn’t tell me.’

 

“Well, I guess this is as good a time as any to tell you all that Arya is my girlfriend.” Avi says, sheepishly.

 

“Well, I guess that answered my question” Mel whispers to me. Mitch and Scott glare, one because he didn’t know and the other because we hate each other, in a friendly-ish way. The rest of the night is tense as people are trying not to bother Avi and I. Mitch makes the mistake of bothering Livvie and Mel instead of me. Livvie snaps, finally sounding like my sister.

 

“Well, Mitch. If you want to know why Mel and I didn’t tell you, then I’ll tell you. But after this, don’t ask me stupid questions. I know you have a brain and that it’s in working order. Why do you think we didn’t tell you? We assumed that Avi haad told you, or was going to soon and didn’t want to spoil the surprise. If you had found out first, would you have told us immediately? Honestly! Use your goddaamned brain!”

 

It’s something I would have done. Stuff I would have said, but probably not to Mitch. I like Mitch, if it was Scott…I don’t know what would have happened. A few minutes after Mel, Livvie and I got home, the texts came streaming into our phones.

Unknown number: Hey, this is Kirstie. Just wantd to say sorry about how Mitch was being a nosy bitch. Does your sister act like that a lot? Anyway, congrats on dating Avi.

Unknown Number: Hey, its Mitch. Sorry if i was being annoying. Just surprised. There are other texts from people i know but i am just too tired to deal with them, so i go to  bed. I don't want to be too tired when my first day of work is tomorrow.
