Scott’s POV

Mitch stormed into the hotel room, barely containing his laughter behind feigned anger.

“What’s up, buttercup?” I laughed, spreading my arms wide. Mitch crawled into them and nestled his face into my chest.

“Avi,” Mitch said into my shirt. “But it’s all okay now.”

“There was a problem before?” Kirstie came running from her chair in the corner of the room. Mitch stuttered to find the right words as her anxious face waited; I don’t think he realized she was in the room.

“No, no! Everything’s perfect!” Mitch’s voice was slowly getting higher.

“Liar! Tell me!” Kirstie started violently pouncing up and down on the bed.

“There’s nothing to tell!” Mitch flashed a fake smile and tried to lay a comforting hand on Kirst.

She wasn’t having it.

“You’re keeping secrets! Tell me what’s wrong or I’ll tell Scott that you-” But the feisty girl was interrupted.

“Ok, ok!” Mitch climbed out of my arms and sat on his knees next to an awaiting Kirstie. “I just asked him some questions, made sure he’d look out for you.”

Her face dropped. “You’re kidding me, right?”

“No,” My boyfriend shrunk a little. “I had to make sure.”

“You did not have to make sure, nosy!” Kirstie stood abruptly.

“Did to! Don’t you remember the Kyle incident?” Mitch fired back. I was suddenly very curious as to who this Kyle person was, and I wondered what other things Kirstie hadn’t told me before.

“Kyle was an assclown!” She yelled.

“Avi could’ve been one, too!” Mitch yelled back. “I had to know!”

“That’s not for you to find out, Mitchel!” Kirstie flew into a rage. “I should be able to explore relationship possibilities without you interrogating every possible contender! Kyle was an accident, a one-time thing. Every guy I date isn’t going to be some douchebag! Stop!”

Without Mitch being able to sneak in another word, Kirstie slammed the hotel room door shut.

I wouldn’t be surprised if we got a noise complaint later.

“I can’t believe her!” Mitch tossed his shirt on the ground and climbed under the covers on our king-sized bed.

“Who’s Kyle?” I asked, ignoring Mitch’s rage. Despite the hundreds of other issues going on, my curiosity was killing me and I was dying to know the Kyle backstory.
