As the hours passed and the light faded from the sky, Newt became more and more nervous. He wanted to share this amazing experience with Thomas, this new bond that they would have, but he was just so nervous. His mind filled with so many what if's that Newt could barely concentrate on skiing.

All during dinner, Thomas tried to get Newt to eat something, but he was too anxious even to eat. "Babe, you have to eat," Thomas said, trying to get him to eat some hot soup. "You love this stuff. It'll warm you up."

Newt shook his head and refused. Thomas sighed. He kept an arm around Newt the whole time the rest of his family was eating.

It was instantly awkward when they got back to their room. Maybe, if they hadn't known what they were about to do, it would have been less awkward. But since they'd planned this, it really couldn't be more awkward. To make matters worse, they were best friends.

Thomas saw how terrified Newt was and said, "I'll go get some candles from the bathroom. It'll be more romantic."

He kissed Newt and went into the large bathroom. Newt knew that his boyfriend was giving him some time alone. Exhaling, Newt sat down on the side of the bed and waited. After a few minutes, Thomas came back out with an armful of candles. He sat them on the tables on their side of the bed, on their dresser. He lit them and then asked, "Are you comfortable?"

Newt smiled. "I am," he answered, pulling Thomas close.

"Okay," Thomas said, smiling. "Just tell me if you aren't-"

The blond laughed. "Tommy. Relax. This is perfect."

Thomas nodded. Newt kissed him softly, slowly, pressing against him and savoring the kiss. The brown-haired boy moaned softly and wrapped Newt in his arms, the kiss getting more hot and hungry. It was definitely sexy and Newt's nerves dwindled as time went by. Thomas kissed Newt's neck and the blond's eyes fluttered closed, a moan slipping past his lips. "Tommy," Newt moaned as Thomas kissed his now bare shoulder. Newt felt around for the buttons on Thomas' shirt and unbuttoned his shirt, taking it off of his boyfriend. He felt Thomas smile against his bare skin and a moment later, a pair of warm lips met his. Newt's heart swelled with love and he wrapped his arms around Tommy's neck, pulling him closer.

Thomas was gentle, sweet, and incredibly loving the entire time. He held Newt when the blond sobbed in pain, and told Newt how beautiful he was and how much he loved him over and over. Afterwards, they laid together in bed, snuggled together under the blankets. The last thing Newt remembered before he fell asleep was his lover stroking his hair.

At first, when Newt woke up the next morning, he thought last night was a dream. When he realized it wasn't, tears of happiness filled his eyes. Tommy was still asleep, so the blond lay with his head on his lover's bare chest and closed his eyes, blissfully reliving the night before over and over again. After a while, he lifted his head and kissed Thomas awake. "Morning," Newt mumbled into the kiss.

Thomas smiled against his lips. There were tears in his eyes when he pulled away and Newt just leaned in for another kiss. Their kisses went from deep to heated and Newt put Thomas' hand between his legs, causing them to both groan in pleasure. "I love you," Newt mumbled into the kiss.

"I love you too, you stupid slinthead," Tommy said between kisses, his lips trailing down to Newt's neck as he placed small kisses on his skin. Newt gasped in pleasure and allowed his eyes to flutter closed.

"Newt! Thomas! Get up, it's our last day here!" Mikayla's voice called from outside their room, muffled by the door. She knocked on their door three times.

"Go away, 'Kayla," Newt managed as Thomas kissed his stomach. Newt tried hard not to moan since his sister was right outside their door, causing their moment to go from sexy to awkward. Tommy sat up, pulling Newt into his arms, as Newt hoped Kayla hadn't heard them - especially since she hadn't gotten The Talk yet.

Newt snuggled against his lover, kissing his bare collarbone. "We should really get up," Newt lamented. "I want to see Minho one last time before we leave."

His lover immediately tensed. "Not without me, you aren't."

Newt sighed as he felt a twinge of annoyance. "Don't do this, Tommy. I don't want to fight. This is the last chance I'll get to see Minho."

"You kissed him."

"I apologized! And I bloody didn't have sex with him!" Thomas flushed crimson and Newt felt himself blushing, too. "I love you, Thomas, more than anything, and you have nothing to be worried about. I will never, ever hurt you again."

Thomas kissed him deeply and Newt let the kiss linger. Forcing himself to pull away, he reluctantly got up and searched for his clothes that were thrown carelessly around the room last night. "Tommy?" Newt said, looking up in confusion.

"Yes?"

"How the bloody hell did you manage to get my pants on the fan like that?"

After breakfast, Newt waited for Minho at their usual spot. Newt could see tears in Minho's eyes as the Asian boy hugged him tightly. When they pulled away, he said, "This is the last day we have together?"

"Until my next visit," confirmed Newt.

Minho hugged him again. "Let's make the best of it," he decided, and Newt agreed.

They went on the ski lift and Newt rested his head on Minho's shoulder, sitting close to him. He knew Thomas wouldn't like it, but he wanted to be close to his friend. And it wasn't like anything was happening.

They spent all day together skiing, and nothing happened except for an exchange of "I love you"s that left them both crying by the end of their meeting. "This isn't goodbye," Newt said against Minho's shoulder as he embraced him that night. "I'll come say goodbye to you in the morning." Newt pecked his cheek, hugging him tightly before going to his family for dinner.

Thomas greeted Newt with a kiss as the blond sat down beside him and reached for his hand. "How was skiing with Minho?" he asked.

"Emotional," Newt said. Thomas' brown eyes burned with jealousy and Newt reassured him, "Nothing happened, Tommy."

Thomas nodded. "I trust you." They shared a deep kiss and Newt leaned against his boyfriend all during dinner. Newt was so tired when he got back to the room that he fell asleep almost instantly in Thomas' arms.
