~Lay Me Down~
Mitch sat on the couch curled up in a ball, watching cartoons. It was noon and he still hadn't bothered to change out of his pajamas.
What was the point?
Ever since Scott left, he'd lost all motivation to do anything. His heart ached too much. His missing of Scott was almost unbearable and he'd often be crying himself to sleep most nights.
Today was just another day. Another day without his love.
Now see, Scott didn't just leave him for some petty reason. He was a secret agent. There was a more sophisticated sounding name for it but 'secret agent' was basically what he was. He was always leaving to go on secret missions. And those missions could be as long as a day to months. The one he was on now, was one that took months. It had been 3 months and 9 days so far without Scott. Yes, Mitch kept count, what else did he have to do?
Mitch let out a staggered sigh. He felt it coming: the heart aching sobs and hot tears. They would be there shortly. The first tear dropped from his eye when he felt his phone vibrate. It was probably Kirstie, but he had to check just to be sure. He sighed, it was Kirstie.
It vibrated again, signaling another message. This time it was...
Scott.
Mitch couldn't believe it. Scott wasn't supposed to communicate with anybody while on missions. What if it was an emergency? Mitch held his breath as he opened the message-his heart was pounding. Mitch furrowed his brows in confusion. He had sent a link of him singing the song Lay Me Down by Sam Smith, with the caption, 'Watch and react for Sup3rfruit'. Mitch clicked on it and watched the video. As soon as he saw Scott, tears sprung to his eyes. He watched as Scott poured all of his emotion into the song. Mitch was covering his mouth with his hands, covering up his sobs.
~Your touch, your skin,
Where do I begin?
No words can explain the way I'm missing you
Deny this emptiness, this hole that I'm inside
These tears, they tell their own story~
~Can I lay by your side, next to you, you
And make sure you're alright?
I'll take care of you,
And I don't want to be here if I can't be with you tonight~
By the end of the video Mitch was quietly crying in a pool of tears, staring at his phone. He missed Scott even more now, he just wanted to hear his voice, feel his touch, see his beautiful face.
"Mitch," the brunette jumped. He hadn't even heard the door open. The voice sounded a lot like Scott's. Mitch turned around and time seemed to slow down in that moment. Scott was standing there with a bouquet of flowers. He was wearing a black tuxedo and man did he look handsome. Scott had the biggest smile on his face and as soon as the two connected eyes, Mitch scurried off the couch and into Scott's arms. The taller man carried him as Mitch cried into his shoulder. Saying things in between tears like, "I love you." "Thank god you're safe." "I missed you." Scott soothed the smaller man as his tears slowly subsided. He let him down and looked into his eyes. Scott knew it was time. Time for him to make Mitch officially forever his.
Scott placed the flowers on the counter near him before proceeding to go down on one knee. Immediately Mitch threw his hands up to his face in reaction, he could barely stand up any longer.
"Mitch, I have loved you for so long. Since we were 10 years old and I barely knew what love was. I have always wanted to just take care of you and love you, treat you like a queen," Scott was tearing up, but his smile wasn't fading. Mitch was crying and giggling uncontrollably. "You are my other half, undoubtedly. You know me better than I know myself. Most of all, you've loved me through everything. Through the hardest, easiest, stupidest times of my life. I want to make you my husband, I will love and take care of you for the rest of your life. I want to have children and be grandparents of their children. I want to grow old with you. I want to be yours, forever. Mitch Grassi, will you marry me, and make me the happiest man on earth?" Scott finished, barely getting the words out since he was nearly sobbing. Mitch violently shook his head 'yes' while screaming it at the top of his lungs. Scott got out the ring and slipped it onto Mitch's trembling finger, before Mitch jumped into his arms, once again. Scott caressed Mitch's face before kissing him with all the passion and love he had.
After minutes of doing this, Scott spoke up. "You know, I'm posting this tomorrow," Mitch gave him a confused look.
"What?"
"The video," Scott said as he pointed to a camera on the counter. Mitch didn't know how it got there, but he knew Scott had set it up. He couldn't help but grin at the taller man.
"Post it now!! Hell I want to shout it to the world, that I'm marrying Scott Hoying!" Mitch squealed. Scott giggled and again consumed him in a passionate kiss.
The end~
