Triphilia - together forever | one-shots

Buttons

Avi looked up from his phone when someone was calling his name. "Yeah?"

"You're on in ten" the director said.

"Alright, thank you" he replied and quickly replied to Mitch's message before putting his phone on flight mode for the duration of the livestream.

He checked his guitars once more, made sure that they were tuned and exchanged a few words with his band when he heard a familiar voice.

"No, I am with Avi. Scott Hoying? His boyfriend?"

Avi stepped up to Scott who was standing in the doorway, trying to get past the security.

"That's true. He's with me. And we haven't started yet, so can he please come in?" Avi said softly.

"Oh yes, of course. Sorry." The security let Scott pass and the tall man immediately hugged his boyfriend tight.

"Hi, Sweetheart" he whispered softly. "I'm so sorry that I am late, I know how important this livestream is to you."

But Avi just shook his head. "You're here now, that's all that matters to me. Thank you so much for coming!"

"You are very welcome, Avi."

"Three minutes everyone."

Avi drew in a shaky breath.

"Hey, don't be nervous. You got this. Everyone is so excited to see you live" Scott said as he took his boyfriend's hand and led him to his microphone.

Avi smiled slightly. "Thanks."

Scott leaned down and pecked his lips. "You're wonderful." He looked into his eyes once more and then let his hands glide down his chest over his shirt. He grinned and opened another button, making it so his shirt was open until below his chest. "And very sexy." He whispered and when Avi glared at him he added. "Don't worry, your cute nips are safe."

Avi nodded. He knew that Scott wouldn't do anything to harm him.

With one more kiss, Scott stepped aside. This was Avi's moment after all, no one who wasn't in this studio needed to know that he was there. He just watched him play and talk about his songs and his passion of making music. It was a short livestream, he performed four songs. 

I'll get by, a song that sounded so uplifting, but in which Avi actually worked through a lot of his problems, Chains, one of Scott's favourites, because even if it was very dark, it was beautiful to him. Then Full Moon where Scott always closed his eyes and just listened to Avi singing and last, but definitely not least, It knows me. 

Once Avi had ended the livestream he had to give a few short interviews and then talked to some important people from the record company. While he was doing so, Scott waited for him in a secluded corner, busying himself with replying to few emails and then texting Mitch.

Scott: Did you have time to see him?

Mitch: Of course I did. I still have some time left before I need to get ready and boy I am going to need a long shower after this.

Scott: Why's that:P? 

Mitch: You opened that button on his shirt, didn't you? Avi usually has one or two buttons open, but not that many. 

Scott: You caught me red handed. But there was not too much skin, right?

Mitch: No. Just enough to send my thoughts on a ride. Damn. 

Scott: I get that. And you've been gone for four nights now...

Mitch: Don't remind me. At least you're reunited and able to have a good night together.
