Missing Moment 1: The talk
A/N: Today this story reached 100k views, which is perfect since I actually finished writing this missing moment. I've been wanting to come back to this story and write something more about the characters for a while, I even talked about it on twitter and was pleasantly surprised when A LOT of you voted yes and even messaged me on private. So. This is the first one of these missing moments to celebrate!
I'm not REALLY sure how many of these will be, or how much you actually care because..well, the story has been finished for a while now. But there are many things I could still talk about it, and I'm sure there are things some of you would like to see. So why not? I'm busy writing other things and with real life, but I always find the time to write this, trust me.
So, anyway. This is set at the end of chapter 28, so of course waaaay before the epilogue. Because we knew what Mitch wanted to say to Scott, but how about the actual scene? :)
-Lia
****
As years passed and their relationship grew, Mitch thought he had seen all kind of emotions cross Scott’s face. They had been in each other’s lives long enough that he was sure he knew every single aspect of his best friend’s personality. Every flaw, every quality, every single piece that made Scott.
He used to say that when people would ask the typical So why are you not guys dating question. He would roll his eyes, or laugh, or just shake his head, before pointing out that it wouldn’t work. They knew each other too well. There was no more mystery - or so he had thought.
Of course, he had been wrong. There were so many things he hadn’t known about Scott - and funnily enough, about himself too.
He would have never guessed how his heartbeat could pick up when he was held by those strong arms in the middle of the night, clothes discharged somewhere, their breathing just calming down after their bodies had blended together, blurring the lines so that he didn’t know where one ended and the other started. How Scott’s eyes could change color in the middle of a heated kiss, when Mitch was moving on top of him, slow and languid, hands wandering and hearts synchronizing.
How his mind would spin every time he thought about Scott saying that he was in love with him, voice deep and steady, face open and giving - and how Mitch’s whole soul would feel teared apart, pulled in different ways by both fear and hope.
There were so many things he still didn’t know about this blonde boy that held his heart in his wonderful hands, and he was left breathless when he realized how much more he wanted to know. And that was why, when Scott opened the front door of his apartment - a place that had been theirs for so long it still hurt - Mitch almost forgot why he had gone there in the first place.
Looking into cerulean eyes that he knew so well, he realized his mistake - and a feeling of regret took over everything else.
The two boys looked at each other for what felt like hours, and subconsciously Mitch knew that he was the one that had to speak up, he was the one with explanations to give and apologies to deliver.. But his mind seemed to not work properly, the only thing he could focus on was Scott - who was right in front of him, more close than he had been for the past couple of weeks, so much so that it would only take a couple of steps for him to bury his face on his chest, wrap his arms around him and never let go.
Which was exactly what he wanted - but something was holding him back, his mind screaming at him to run. He stayed still, though, forcing himself to be brave, and that was the moment Scott decided to speak.
“Mitch? What..what are you doing here?!”
There was something about Scott’s voice that didn’t sound quite right - it was deep, and hoarse, and his face lacked the brightness that used to characterize it. Mitch watched as the blonde struggled to plaster a smile on his lips, but it was easy to notice how it didn’t reach his eyes, dropping after a second. His eyes were puffy and dull, not even close to the shining cerulean that he was used to and that he loved so much.
Everything on his face screamed hurt, and it made Mitch’s stomach clench in a way that he wasn’t sure he could bear, not when he knew it had been his fault. A sting of guilt hit him as he realized that, so lost wallowing in his own pain, he had not given enough thought on how his actions would affect Scott.
“Are you okay?” He heard himself ask before he could even think about the words, and he mentally slapped himself. Scott was obviously not okay - and why would he be? He had broken off his relationship with Alex, he had been trying to reach for him without being successful, and his friends had been shutting him down, blaming him for the mess that had gone down. Mitch was painfully aware of every single one of those things, both Kirstie and Esther keeping him updated in their own weird way to help him.
He watched as Scott opened his mouth to say something, then quickly changed his mind, pressing his lips into a thin line and avoiding his eyes. Mitch would never use the world small to describe the blonde boy - nothing about him was, not his physical appearance, not his talent, and not even his personality. Scott only needed to step foot into a room to have all the eyes on him, his bright smile and cheerfulness always putting him on the highest point respect everyone else.
And yet, Mitch could make him look like that - could hurt him so much that Scott would retreat into himself, bringing his arms around his own body, hugging himself almost like it was the only way to stop falling apart.
Mitch had never seen him so sad and so hurt, and the idea that it was all his fault made the pain from the stitches bearable if compared to that. He took a step forward, wanting nothing more than ease Scott’s sorrow - and he felt like he had been punched in the face when Scott visibly flinched, taking a step back and almost hiding himself behind the door that he was still holding open.
“Do you..want to come in?”
The words left Scott’s mouth hesitantly, as if the boy hadn’t meant to say them in the first place. It would have been cute, the way he was shifting his eyes around as if he wasn’t sure about what Mitch’s reply would be, but it only showed how much he had hurt him, how unsure he was of where they stood, and it made him extremely sad.
“I..sure.”

I love looking through comments on PTX/Superfruit videos because dumb people really make my day.
Like in Superfruit’s 1989 video (which was posted in November 2014), people will comment things like, “How did they know ‘Out of the Woods’ when that wasn’t even released?!” Then people will respond that (duh) it was on her album, but it wasn’t a single until recently… smh
Then in their Defying Gravity video from back in September 2013, and it’s Scott’s birthday. There’s so many comments from two and a half years later that say, “Happy Birthday!” Like, that’s nice and all, but really?
Also, it’s one thing to post a comment on their Beyoncé video, or their other popular covers that they “should audition for ‘The Voice’” or that they should be in “Pitch Perfect” or something. I can understand people not knowing that not only did they win a singing reality show competition already, but they also had a cameo in Pitch Perfect, because Superfruit could just be random “youtubers.”
However, when those comments are made on Pentatonix videos, my brain rots from the dumb. I can understand people not knowing and being completely ignorant. I can. It’s just that… it’s not hard to figure out that this is an official, professional singing group’s channel. All you have to do is click on their name and read the “about” page.
I’m done being a cynical bitch now, but feel free to add dumb comments that you hate because I would love to read them.
captions project update.
HEY SO I’M FINALLY DONE WITH TESTS AND THINGS LIKE THAT and i’m finally going for the captions. YAY!
I’m thinking of making a page in my blog where ya’ll can see what episodes are done/i’m working on, also who’s helping me when i can’t understand things. I’ll be calling ppl who sent me messages and then putting their url in the page with the episode they helped with. Idk, i’m insecure, tell me what u think and I’ll post the link later, I guess.
