"Newt?" Thomas called as he opened the door to their shared apartment. He didn't expect him to be home, he barely ever was, neither of them were home very often. Thomas gave a halfhearted smile and removed his laptop from his backpack, tossing the backpack aside and made his way into their living room. At least without Newt here he could get some work done. Newt was like an overactive puppy, always seeking attention. Not that Thomas minded, he'd grown quite fond of Newt. His heart fluttered at the thought of the blonde. He smiled fondly and plopped down on their couch.
He opened his laptop and tried to start on his research paper. He felt he was finally getting somewhere when he heard the door open. "Tommy, I'm home!". The blonde's voice filled their home, bringing a smile to the brunette's face. "I'm in the living room!". Newt made his way into the living room, dumping his backpack on the floor near the plopped down on the couch and placed his feet in the crease between couch and Thomas' back. "So, whatcha doin'?". Thomas smirked, eyes never leaving the screen of the laptop, "Were you watching Phineas and Ferb on the way home again?" Newt gave a lopsided grin, "It's a possibility.". Thomas gave an amused grunt, "How old are you?" "Approximately one year, three months and six days older than you." "Whatever." "So what are you actually doing?" "Research paper." "Boooo.". Thomas chuckled, briefly glancing up at the blonde, "Well Newt, some of us actually have important things we need to get done." "Well excuse me Mr. Undergrad, but not all of us can be in medical school, and as a matter of fact I do do important things." "Oh yeah, like what?" "Need I remind you I major in mechanical engineering?" "Which makes you an Undergrad, too.". Thomas said interrupting Newt's rant. "As I was saying before I was so rudely interrupted." Newt said, earning a snort from Thomas. "I had to build a robot for Mr. Janson's class and I go an A." Newt said sending a smug grin in Thomas' direction.
Thomas rolled his eyes. "Then how come I never saw you working on this supposed robot." "That's because I do all my important projects at the library, where there are no distractions or interruptions." Thomas gave a halfhearted nod, eyes never leaving the screen. "You should do your projects at the library, too." Newt suggested. "Besides it doesn't look like you're getting much done here." That had caught Thomas's attention, tearing his eyes away from the screen he finally looked up, looking almost offended. "I have to gotten some work done!" "Oh yeah, how much?" Thomas looked down, trying to shield the computer screen from Newt. "A couple of sentences." Thomas mumbled. "What was that Tommy, I didn't quite catch that?" Newt said, sending a suggestive smirk his way. Thomas sneered at him "A couple of sentences.". Newt didn't even try to conceal his laughter all the while Thomas glared daggers at him. "Shut it, Salamander." "Aw come on Tommy, you know you love me. I'm serious though, you should really consider my suggestion.". Thomas had to laugh at that. "Could you imagine us in a library?" Newt snorted. "It'd be the best thing ever." Thomas didn't even try to conceal his smile. "So Tommy, are you going to sit there on your arse all day and pretend to get work done or are you going to allow me escort you to our local library?" Newt said standing up and offering Thomas a hand, "Shall we?" Thomas took Newt's outstretched hand, closing his laptop and tossing it aside "We shall."
AN: First chapter is done, hope you guys enjoyed it. I apologize for any grammatical errors, it's 12 am here and I was listening to Fall Out Boy, so I was a little distracted. I've already started working on the second chapter, so that should be up soon. If you have and suggestions I'd love to here them. Until next time Merry Christmas Eve.
