Change on the Rise

Scott sighed and flopped down on the sofa. He just came home from his spinning course and it had been, once again, exhausting, but also very rewarding. He took a swig from his water bottle and closed his eyes for a moment, enjoying the quiet. He knew that Mitch was at the studio to lay down some vocals for Pentatonix and where Avi was, he didn't know. But the house was quiet, so he thought he was alone. 

He decided to close his eyes for a moment and then go and take his shower, when he heard noise coming from the kitchen. He turned around and was kind of scared of what he was going to encounter, but then there was Avi almost rushing inside from the garden. 

"Hi Love, didn't know you were home" Scott greeted his boyfriend. 

"Mmhm, I was outside, writing" Avi returned and quickly pecked Scott's lips. 

Scott smiled at him. "Thought so. And now you're rushing where?" 

"Wanna record the demo real quick while I'm inspired" Avi explained. 

Scott nodded. "I get that. Want me to push some buttons for you?"

Avi shrugged his shoulders. "Would be lovely, but it'll take a while, because I'm planning on doing a lot of vocal work, layering and such... less instruments, more voice" he warned him. 

"I don't care, I don't have any other plans today" replied Scott. "I'd love to help you."

Avi smiled. "Thank you, you're the best."

"Maybe I'm just curious about this new song of yours..." Scott replied as he followed Avi downstairs into the cellar where they had built their own small studio. 

"Okay, so you said less instruments. Do you want to start with those or rather with the voice?" Scott asked after he had switched on the appliances. 

"I think so... but as I said, it'll take some time to figure everything out..." Avi explained. "So..." 

"I'm here, Love" Scott replied and sat down in front of the sound mixer. "Let's figure stuff out together, I'm excited."

"Alright" Avi pressed a soft kiss onto Scott's temple and went inside the little cabin. He put on the headphones and put his notes on the music stand. 

"What kind of beat do you need on your ears?" asked Scott through the intercom. 

"Just a regular one, about 70 bpm, please" Avi replied. He waited until Scott had started the beat and then began to sing.

"I think that's it?" Avi put down the headphones and took a swig of water.

"Wanna listen to it once more?"

Avi stepped out of the recording cabin and stepped up behind Scott. "I'd like to show it to Mitch, too, if he's already home?"

"He is. It's past 8."

Avi turned around when he heard the familiar voice and smiled. "Hi, Love."

Mitch approached him and kissed his lips. "Hi... I was wondering what's going on here?"

"Oh I had an idea. A new song. It came to me this afternoon and Scott helped me record a demo..." Avi explained. 

Mitch turned his nose up at Scott. "This is why you didn't take a shower after your workout" he concluded. 

"Yeah..." Scott said. "You know me, music was more important." 

Mitch grinned. "I know, I know. But now, up you go, shower quickly, I might have lasagna in the oven."
