Cracked

Home.

*Scott's POV*

"WYATT!" I call as I walk into my house.

Wyatt comes running towards Mitch and I.

"Scott... Heavy." Mitch says and drops our bags.

"Sorry. I'll try to start helping. My hips are getting strong again."

Once my hips heal, I'll have a limp, but that's okay as long as I can walk again.

"I know." He says and gives me a kiss.

"Should we unpack?" I ask, motioning to the pile of bags by the door.

"Um... No." Mitch says and flops down on the couch.

"Mitchie, when are we flying out?" I ask, sitting down beside him.

"Tomorrow, doofus." He says and kisses my head.

"Sorry, I'm jet lagged." I say and lay my head on his shoulder.

"Nap." He says and turns on the TV.

"SpongeBob!" I scream!

He covers his ears. Quiet.

"Sorry, grandma."

Mitch grabs a big blanket and drapes it over both of us.

Mitch lays his head on top of mine and I hear snoring.

I close my eyes and pull the blanket over my shoulders.

Glad to be home.

*Kirstie's POV*

"And... Done!" Avi says and drops our luggage on the floor.

I giggle. "I have a lot of clothes. Sorry, babe."

He picks me up. "Don't be sorry."

I squeal. "Put me down!"

He puts me down on the couch. "You're so short."

"You look like a lumberjack."

"Well you're not lying." Avi says and flops down beside me.

"Babe," I say, nuzzling my head into his chest. "We gotta unpack."

"Okay... But later."

"Okay. I'm tired."

"Me too. Want to watch a movie?"

"Yeah." I say and pull up Netflix.

We scroll through the movies for a while.

"Let's watch Borat!" Avi says with his stupid smile.

I sigh. "Okay, babe. It'll only be the 400th time we watched it."

I play the movie and Avi gets a big blanket for us.

"Avi?"

"Hm?"

"I'm tired. Sing me a song?"

Avi readjusts his position so that we're laying beside each other.

"Close your eyes, lay your head down. Now it's time to sleep. May you find great adventure as you lie and dream. If you're scared of the darkness, I will calm your fear. There's a light in the hallway so you know I'm here."

I fall asleep with Avi's strong arms around me.

*Mitch's POV*

I laugh so hard my face is turning red.

"Mitch, oh my god, what are you laughing at?" Scott calls from the bathroom.

I walk over and show him.

He rolls his eyes.

"It's funny!"

"Yeah, whatever." He says and puts his shirt on.

Leave your shirt off.

"....No."

I frown.

"Hey! Let's do a live stream!"

"Yay!"

I grab my computer and go to my room.

Scott joins me. "I tweeted already."

We start up the live stream.

"She should be getting here any minute." Scott says.

Someone special is coming to visit.

There's a knock at the door.

"I'll get it." Scott says.

I turn on the camera. "Hi guys! Scott... He's coming. Also..."

Our guest enters the room.

I smile and hug them.

The next book in our story is gonna be so epic.

And this is only the beginning.
