X

Tom's phone rang. It was Colin. His doctor's appointment had finished early, and would Tom mind picking him up before his parents had a chance to?

Finally back together after more than two weeks they were left staring at eachother on the couch. There had been no contact since Colin had left the hospital - his parents had made sure of that! - and Tom had felt rather uneasy at not being able to ask Colin what he really felt.

Now none of that mattered. Being back together was a sort of homecoming indeed. Even without speaking they knew this was it and there'd be all kinds of everything piling up in their future to stop them and tear them down, but they were in this together and it was their future.

They smiled at eachother and inched closer.
