*Mitch's POV*

I wake up in Scott's arms.

I would've stayed there, but he was snoring REALLY loud and it was getting annoying.

I wiggle out of his reach, careful not to wake him and then slip on some pants and a sweatshirt.

It's getting down to 65 by some sorcery and I'm prepared.

I quietly slip out the door and into the foyer to grab my keys.

I left him a note:

Going to get coffee! <3 you.

And go out to my car.

Jesus H. Christ it's cold out here (Does anyone get it).

I start blasting Beyonce and pull out onto the road.

I drive very slow, not that you can speed in L.A. traffic, and eventually made it to Starbucks.

I could walk but it's way too cold for that.

I go inside and walk to the counter, realizing that I'd have to communicate somehow.

Frick.

I quickly type out what I want on my phone.

"Hello, welcome to Starbucks, what can I get for you today?"

I slide my phone towards the barista.

"Can't you talk?" She asks rudely.

No. I'd like two iced coffees, but without the salt, please.

I smirk as I see her expression change.

I hand her my card and she snatches it out of my hand.

I'm yelling in my head.

I snatch the card back and move over to wait for my drink.

I get my drinks and start the short drive back to our apartment.

I pull out onto the road and swerve a little.

Careful, Mitch. Remember what happened last time you got in a car accident?

I drive home and get inside.

I go to wake up Scott.

I enter our bedroom and my mouth drops open.

I got you-

I slam down my stuff and Scott's head shoots up.

"Mitch! I can explain..."

Tears fill my eyes and I run out of the room.

I grab my keys again and drive to Kirstie's house.

I walk up and knock on her door.

"Hey Mitch- Hey, what's wrong? Come inside." She says and opens the door.

I go inside.

"Come sit I'll make you some coffee."

Well we know what happened last time someone went to get coffee.

She gets us coffee and sits down.

Thanks.

"Of course. What's up Mitch?"

Tears fill my eyes before I can even tell her.

Scott and Alex.

"They were together?"

Yeah. Eating each other's faces.

"He cheated? How dare he?" Kirstie says, anger apparent in her voice.

I don't even respond, I just start crying. I thought I had escaped the hole that I was in.

"I'm going over there." Kirstie says and gets up.

No, don't.

"Why not? He can't just cheat on you like that. And this close to Christmas? No."

I let a tear fall. I love him so much though.

"I know. I know you do. And you guys just came out."

Let's just go. I wanna talk to him. Actually, I'll go.

I know I just basically said I hated him, but I want to talk to him about something.

Kirstie sighs. "I can't tell you what to do. Text me later and tell me what happens. Love you."

Love you too.

We hug and I walk out the door to my car.

I take the short drive home and walk slowly up the stairs to our apartment, mainly because I don't do stairs.

I walk inside and see that Scott is sitting on the couch with a bottle of liquor and his head in his hands.

I rush over to him and take the liquor from him.

He may have cheated, but I still care about him.

"Mitch! I'm sorry I didn't mean-"

I slap him across the face.

He clenches his jaw. "Second time that's happened."

You deserve it.

"Mitch, he came over because I was sad and we were just gonna spend time together. Things happened, and..."

I forgive you.

"You're not mad?"

I'm pissed.

"Then why do you..."

I don't want drama. I forgive you, but I can't trust you. I'm sorry Scott.

"Are we..."

I'm sorry.

He just nods.

I go into my old bedroom and hear the front door slam.

I sit on my bed and sob into my hands.

What have I done?
