Scott yawned and looked at Kirstie laying next to him. He smiled and kissed her neck and collar bone. "good morning sleeping beauty" Scott smiled "morning prince charming, now let me sleep for the rest of the day" Kirstie mumbled "you can't do that because you said you are going to the studio today" Scott smirked "fuck" Kirstie groaned "let's get ready" Scott chuckled and stood up. Kirstie put Scott's pillow over her face and groaned. "Kirstie" Scott groaned and pulled the pillow off her. Suddenly Scott's phone rang so he answered it.
Kirstie sat up and frowned as she saw Scott's face as he listened to the person on the phone. Scott hung up and put his hand over his mouth as he started crying. "Scotty what happened?" Kirstie asked "I have to go to Texas, my sister is really sick and my parents are in another country doing some volunteer work so I have to go take care of her" Scott sniffled "I can go with you" Kirstie offered "no, I won't have much time to spend with you and I don't want you to get sick" Scott sniffled "how long will you be gone?" Kirstie frowned "a couple months, I don't know. they said she has a possibility of death and the illness is really bad" Scott said "ok when do you leave?" Kirstie asked "I have to go as soon as possible so I guess tomorrow" Scott told her so she looked down and frowned. Scott sat next to her and lifted her chin so he was looking her in the eyes. "hey, Mitch will take care of you and if you need to talk, just call me. I don't care if it's three in the morning just call me if you want to or feel the need to" Scott told her then kissed her. "let's get ready to go" Scott smiled slightly so Kirstie nodded and Scott helped her get dressed.
They finished recording but all day neither Kirstie or Scott smiled. "they should have a show called grumpiest couple, these two would qualify" Avi chuckled pointing at Scott and Kirstie so Scott pinned him against. "You should ask before making jokes because at the moment my sister is back in Texas dying and I have to fly out there to take care of her so watch yourself" Scott growled "oh my god why didn't you tell us sooner?" Mitch asked "it didn't come to mind while we were recording" Scott sighed "I'm so sorry" Avi apologized "it's fine, I'm sorry for pinning you against the wall" Scott sighed and helped Kirstie into his car.
Scott was making out with Kirstie on the couch and Mitch walked in. "ok I get that you're leaving tomorrow but could the goodbye make out session make it's way to the bedroom" Mitch said so they stopped making out. "I have to leave early tomorrow so I better get to bed" Scott sighed and stood up. Kirstie stood up and Scott carried her to the bedroom.
Scott laid in bed facing Kirstie and Kirstie was facing Scott. "I love you Scott, I'm going to miss you" Kirstie croaked holding back tears. "I love you too and I'll call you every night until I get you back in my arms" Scott told her and kissed her forehead.
Scott woke up around six o'clock and looked at Kirstie. "bye baby, I'll see you in a couple months" Scott whispered "I love you" he added and kissed her head. he left the note he wrote the previous day for her on the nightstand and quietly walked out of the room with his suitcase. Scott didn't want to wake up Mitch just to drive to the air port so he just used uber.
Scott boarded his plane and sighed. "what's wrong?" the lady next to him asked "how to you know something's wrong?" He asked the lady "I'm a psychic, I get the energy that something is wrong and you're sad" She explained "well, my sister is dying of some disease back home in Texas and I have to leave my girlfriend who has a broken knee here in California so I'm going to miss my girlfriend and I'm worried about my sister" Scott explained "you're Scott Hoying aren't you?" the lady asked "what can you read my name from me?" Scott asked "no, I'm listening to pentatonix right now" she chuckled "oh well thanks for buying the album" Scott smiled then put his head phones on.
Kirstie woke up and Scott was gone. He left for Texas. She frowned and laid on his side of the bed. She stuck her nose deep into Scott's pillow and inhaled the scent of his shampoo. She smiled with tears in her eyes. Kirstie looked up and saw an envelope with her name on it. she grabbed it and pulled the paper out.
Kirstie, I love you. I didn't want to wake you up so sleep in as late as you want. I told Mitch to check on you around ten. My flight lands around noon in California time. I will call you when my plane lands. I love you so much Kirstie, I hope by the time I get back you have that cast off of your leg. I miss you already. I wish I could give you a kiss right now. I won't make this too long. I hope your leg gets better, I love you soooooooo much.
love, your favorite boyfriend Scott :)
Kirstie smiled and put the paper in the drawer. "hey Kirstie, glad you're awake" Mitch smiled walking in so Kirstie nodded slightly "how are you feeling?" Mitch asked sitting on the bed "I miss Scott, he always gives me a good morning kiss to get me up" Kirstie whined "I know. I miss him too. he is my best friend and we haven't been away from each other this long since we met" Mitch explained with a frown.
A few hours later Scott's plane landed and he immediately called Kirstie. They talked the whole half hour it took the taxi to get Scott to his parents' house where his sister is staying.
Scott walked in and put his stuff in his child hood bedroom. He went to the room his sister Lauren is in and sighed. "hey" Scott smiled slightly and walked inside. "you're only in your twenties what are you doing getting sick?" Scott chuckled "it was an animal bite" the live in nurse she's required to have during the day replied so Scott chuckled. Lauren started coughing so Scott took a bowl over allowing her to throw up.
|five months later|
Scott woke up and went to go check on Lauren. He walked in and saw she was in the same position she fell asleep in and the nurse wasn't in the house. "Lauren?" Scott asked and walked over. "Lauren!" he shouted but still no reply. He looked at her face and saw it was pale. He checked for a pulse and there wasn't one. "Lauren!" Scott cried and freaked out. His sister just died. Scott got up and attempted to call his parents. they didn't pick up so he just called the ambulance.
Scott stood on the front porch with tears pouring down his cheeks as the medics loaded his sister into the ambulance after they assured him she is dead. Scott's parents are on their way back so Scott decided just to go back to his room. He laid on his bed and sobbed. He was getting a call from Mitch but he just ignored it. He couldn't believe his sister had just died, she was only in her twenties. She had so much more she needed to do in life. Scott didn't move the rest of the night.
