Thank You

Kirstie walks over to Avi with two bowls of mac and cheese.
Avi immediately curls away from her in fear, "If you dump that on me like you did that sandwich at lunch I will actually cry this time."
She rolls her eyes, "I'm over causing you pain now."
"I'm not sure I believe you."
"And that's exactly the way I want it," she smirks, sitting beside him on the couch and hands him the slightly more full bowl.
"Why are you being like this? Okay yeah we had a fight yesterday but I thought the whole you not talking to me all afternoon was the punishment, not to mention the peanut butter experience that I never want to relieve and will never forgive you for, or the fact that I did nothing wrong."
"Do you remember last night?"
"Remotely, you hurt me then too, we're adding to my case here more than yours Kirstie," he speaks with a hint of smugness.
"You were high, you probably had a few drinks too, the fact that you were with a woman at all, where should we begin?" Kirstie asks.
"They never said I couldn't drink or smoke weed, the only thing I'm not allowed to do is have sex and I didn't. I did nothing wrong," he states in a matter of factly tone, his free hand going.
"If I remember correctly, and I do, you said yesterday, before you lost your mind, that if you smoked too much it'd fuck up your voice. What happened to that then huh?" Her questioning eyebrow goes up and Avi can't help but look into his dish if mac and cheese to avoid her gaze. Of course she's right, he remembers saying that, someone at rehab had said the same thing to him.
His eyebrows knot together as he focuses on the pasta elbows in his dish, he didn't want to look up at Kirstie.
"Avi, I really don't think you should smoke weed anymore, your voice is too beautiful and special to risk. I know there are other ways to do weed but I just personally think you should avoid it. I mean look what happened last night, I know that you hold your alcohol well so a few drinks wouldn't have been what was clouding your judgement."
"But I didn't sleep with her," he defends himself.
"And I believe you-"
"We just fooled around, I stopped it before it went too far."
Kirstie feels anger flare in her stomach before she speaks again, "And I said that I believe you, I don't need the details," her jaw is clenched.
"That's not details, details would be that we were making out and feeling each other up," he half laughs, "But her boobs were fake so that's always kind of been a turn off for me."
Kirstie shakes her head, nostrils flaring, she doesn't want to know this, and this is not what they should be taking about. "Avriel we are not talking about your sex life right now, we are talking about the effect weed is having on you."
"Which directly leads to the fact that it almost made me mess up all my progress with my sex addiction Kirst. We're talking about it all at once aren't we?" Avi is a little confused, sure he went a little far with the detail, but that was to prove a point, but Kirstie's confusing him. It seems like she's saying she wants to help him, but then it's almost like she doesn't, this is part of the reason why he left last night. In fact she literally just mentioned his voice, she wants him to stop weed because it will wreck his voice, his fucking voice!
Avi's face fixes into a scowl and it takes a moment for Kirstie to notice.
"What?" She asks.
"Why do you care so much about my voice? Is that why you're being so bitter with me? You keep bringing everything back to my voice, why?"
Kirstie watches him without amusement. She'd worried she'd played a card she shouldn't have, but he didn't notice anything. Avi is on his own stupid little tangent that she doesn't have time for: she stands up, "Avi, I care about your voice because you do. And frankly I care about you too much to see you hurt yourself like that, moron."

A/N: Who is the most wrong, like for anything, who is the most wrong and why? eg is it Avi for thinking Kirstie has ulterior motives to do with his voice? Is it Kirstie for keeping secrets from Avi? Or could it be Avi for getting himself into this mess in the first place? What's your opinion?
