A/n: This probably has errors in it, I didn't really take time to proofread it
Anyways, new one shot! Hope you enjoy!
"You're really leaving?" Thomas asked, holding Minho tightly in his arms.
Minho nodded solemnly. "It's only temporary, I promise."
Thomas still couldn't believe it. Minho was going away. No, this wasn't like the summer he spent away at camp when they were 10 years old, doomed to never see each other again until the new school year. This isn't like when Thomas decided to study abroad, leaving Minho behind for a full two semesters. This was different.
Minho was leaving.
Actually leaving.
"I don't know if-."
"Hey." Minho said, cutting him off as he slightly pulled away his boyfriend. "This isn't goodbye."
"It feels like it."
"I'll be back before you know it."
"Yeah in a year….maybe."
Minho frowned. "Holiday's? Weekends? I'm not moving halfway across the world."
"Yeah, well, moving halfway across the country sure does feel the same."
Minho gave a sad smile. "I'll only be twelve hours away."
"Twelve hours too long." Thomas pouted.
Minho laughed. "You sound like one of those whiny couples, we promised each other we would never be."
Thomas snorted. "I'm sorry, it's just that…."
Minho smiled, pulling Thomas back against his chest, holding him even tighter than he had been before. "I know." he whispered, kissing the top of Thomas' head. "I'll miss you too.
Four years.
Four whole years.
Minho only had a full ride scholarship to the college of his dreams for a year.
But somehow 365 days turned into 1,460 days.
Meanwhile, Thomas was stuck here in his hometown, going to a local university with Newt, his older sister Teresa, and his younger brother Chuck, who was now entering into his first year of college. Sure, there were the holidays, Minho made sure to visit on every single one of them. And Thomas loved the weekends when Minho would surprise him by driving the twelve plus hours to Thomas' dorm room.
But those became less and less.
Thomas sighed as he sat in his empty dorm. The person he had been rooming with had graduated, so he was left by himself in a empty room with an empty bed. Come to think of it, half the room was just a bare, blank space. He was supposed to be getting a new roommate, but Thomas wasn't sure when, or who it would be.
Not that he got to pick the last time.
Today marked the start of the new semester, and though Thomas was excited to be attending his last year of college, he also was reluctant. Finishing meant that he was done. Ment that he had to actually move on with his life. Get a real job, own a real house, pay bills, pay taxes, actually do his own laundry.
The list went on and on.
But Thomas was pulled out of his thoughts by a knock on his door. He assumed it was probably Newt, coming over to hang out with him like they usually do, but to his surprise it was someone completely different.
"Hey Tommyboy!"
"Mi-Minho?" Thomas stuttered. Minho, who had bags upon bags of luggage and various things of the like, was standing outside his door wearing a huge smile on his face. "What are you doing here?" Thomas finally managed.
"What do you mean? I'm moving in! Move out the way." he stated as he shoved his way through.
"But I-you were- why are…."
"Stop asking questions and help me unpack you shank." Minho ordered playfully.
But Thomas couldn't function. The only thing he could manage to do was grab Minho by the front of his shirt and kiss him with as much love and want he could muster up. When he pulled away, he felt overwhelmed with love, curiosity, and confusion. "What is going on Min?" he whispered.
He laughed. "Well, my scholarship was a four year ride, but remember the summer I couldn't come visit because I was taking classes?"
Thomas nodded.
"Well, that used up a lot of my credits, therefore that semester I technically completed my four years."
"But then why haven't you graduated then?" Thomas asked.
Minho smiled sheepishly. "I took a shit ton of blow off classes to get through my credits." he confessed. "So here I am, back home, living with you, and actually completing my required classes."
Thomas shook his head in disbelief, a huge smile growing on his face. "Minho…"
But he just shook his head. "Let's not worry about school. Right now, all I'm worried about is you, me, and how the both of us are going to fit on one of those tiny ass beds together."
Thomas chuckled. "Haven't been here more than five minutes, and already, you're thinking about sex?"
Minho gave Thomas one of his signature evil smirks. "Can't help it." he said, twirling Thomas around in his arms and laying him down on the vacant bed. "You're just too irresistible."
Thomas let out a laugh, but soon that laughter turned into sounds of pure pleasure.
