Chapter 177
Scott finally glanced over Avi's head to look at Mitch, Scott's eyes wide in anticipation. Mitch was completely still, as he tried to absorb that information. He took a step forward to read over Kevin's shoulder, wanting to see for himself. Avi moved out of the way, so nothing was in Mitch's way as he surged forward to hug Scott roughly. "Why on Earth would that make me mad? I'm so, so proud of you!" Scott hugged back, now smiling widely. "Really?" "Why would that make me mad? You have a warped understanding of emotions." Kevin spoke again from the table. "How odd... Your shoulder injury kept your score down by almost 70 points. That's insane." Mitch moved back, only to put both hands on Scott's face and press a firm kiss to his lips.
Scott was the one to break the kiss, because the large smile on his face wouldn't allow him to continue. Mitch pulled away from him and smiled, his left hand running along Scott's jawbone. "I'm so proud of you. I am so, so, unbelievably, proud of you." Scott felt pride run up his neck, heating his face in an instant. He looked down to the ground with a small smile. "Really?" Mitch let a fond expression take over his face, as he lifted Scott's chin with his other hand. "So bashful..." Avi purposefully interrupted, not wanting Mitch's instincts to trick themselves into starting his Heat early, by smacking Scott on the back a few times. "Job well done, Rookie." Scott jumped in shock, but turned to face him. "O-Oh! Thank you." *********
