"That's the last of it." Sam put down the last box he had just finished bringing up to Quinn's dorm and wiped the sweat off his forehead. He turned and looked over at Quinn who was humming a familiar tune, busy sorting through her boxes in an attempt to begin organizing her cluttered room.
"Quinn?" Sam said softly, trying to get her attention.
Startled, Quinn turned around, "Hmm? Is that the last box?" Sam grinned and teasingly replied, "yeah, that's what I just said."
"I'm so sorry, I'm just everywhere right now. This is a lot, you know?" Sam walked over to her, pulling Quinn into his arms.
He kissed her forehead before whispering, "I know, babe. I can't believe you're going to be here, in Yale. I'm gonna miss you." Quinn pulled back slightly and gazed into his eyes, smiling softly. "I'm gonna miss you too, Sam. More than you know."
Her smile disappeared as she pulled away and Sam followed her as she made her way towards the bed. Quinn sat down. "What if I can't adjust here? I mean, do I really belong here?"she said wistfully.
"Quinn, look at me." Sam cupped her face before continuing, "I'm so proud of you. I always knew you'd get here. You worked so hard, Q. I've said it before and I'll say it again, you deserve good things. You're Quinn Fabray, and as far as I'm concerned, Yale is lucky as hell to have gained someone as awesome as you."
Quinn stood up and hugged him tightly. "How'd I manage to get someone as sweet as you?"
"You forgot handsome," Sam joked. Quinn giggled, slapping his arms slightly.
"Maybe," she teased back. "You're right. I just got worked up, I was being silly. Yale is gonna be a place full opportunities for me."
She checked her watch and gasped at the time. "It's almost 5, do you have to start making your way home now?" She questioned.
"Yeah, I do. I don't want to get home to late," Sam replied regretfully.
"I'll walk you to your car," She offered. Quinn grabbed his arm gently and clasped her hand in his. They walked out her room and started making their way down the flight of stairs to the exit. As they neared Sam's car, he wrapped his arm around her shoulders and she nuzzled his neck. The walk was silent, both soaking up their last few moments together.
"Well, I guess this is me." Sam said as they finally reached his car.
"We'll skype all the time. And we'll talk every night. We're not going to be like those long distance couples that fall apart. We're different. We're going to make this work. You'll e-mail me, right?" Quinn asked in a raspy voice.
Sam looked down at her and managed a small smile. "Of course," he replied softly. He enveloped her in a tight hug, and it takes all his self control to not take her back to Lima with him. He pulls back and Quinn places a soft kiss on his lips. She takes his hand in hers once again, and proceeds to tell him to be careful on the way back, directions so he won't get lost and a bunch of other information that Sam isn't processing. They both know they're just trying to delay the inevitable.
"I'm gonna miss you," Quinn finally chokes out.
"I'm gonna miss you too, I love you. So much." Sam barely manages to reply back without breaking down and sobbing like a baby. Who knew it would hurt this much? She gently drops their interlaced hands and Sam gives her one last goodbye kiss. She shoots him a watery smile as he gets in the car.
"Drive safely, call me when you get home."
"Will do. I'll call you tonight. I love you, Q."
"I love you too."
She watches as he backs out of the parking lot and drives away. She waits until his car becomes a tiny speck in the distance before making her way back to her dorm, wiping away the tears not knowing that in the car, Sam was doing just the same exact thing.
A/N: Okay, so what do you think? I was thinking about how much I wanted Fabrevans back this season and ways they could work in Yale/Lima. This idea popped into my head during economics, and well here it is. I know where I'm going with this, and if you have any ideas you'd like to see in the future, let me know! Stay tuned for cute skype dates, Yale and Lima, and jealousy. So, like it? Hate it? Please leave a review, I won't update until I get atleast 5-10. It'd mean the world to me :)
