Summary
Spencer leans against the doorway, a speck of flour on his forehead from whatever he was cooking up in the kitchen, while he eyes Derek affectionately. "See you later, honey," he murmurs, leaning into him for a fleeting kiss that ends too quickly for Derek's liking.
Tufts of snow stick to his jacket as he says his goodbyes, his motivation to show up at his cubicle at an all time low as he watches Spencer burrow further into the borrowed sweatshirt. As he pulls out of their driveway and turns the heat to full blast, Derek sighs, letting his breath warm up his icy fingers. Their front door is open, and when Spencer catches his eye, he waves, smiling softly before watching Derek drive away.
He thinks he gets it now, what his father had meant. Love is in the long goodbyes, and the want to linger, for just a moment longer. If he pictures someone in addition to just Spencer and Clooney sending him off, then that's no one's business but his.
