Patton sits on his knees next to a suitcase filled with his clothes, grabbing more items out of a drawer.
"Do you want this?"  I ask him, holding up an old, gross looking t-shirt I found in his wardrobe.  He laughs embarrassedly.
"Wow, I didn't realise how much stuff I need to get rid of"  He says, pushing a hand through his hair.
"Well this is a perfect opportunity to get rid of some stuff!  I think this is trash"  I say, putting the shirt in a bin bag.
"We can sell a ton of the furniture, make some good money too!"  He says, adjusting his glasses.  We continue to go through his stuff for another hour, and soon he has three suitcases of clothes, multiple onesies and about ten stuffed animals.  My boyfriend is too cute.  He comes up behind me, kissing my neck and wrapping his arms around my chest.  I smile, turning round and pushing him backwards onto the bed before climbing onto him and leaning down to kiss him.  He smiles against my lips, sighing happily through his nose, and I pull back slowly.  "I'm gonna miss this place," he says with mock sadness in his voice.  "But I am going to be living with the love of my life, which in a million times better than any house I'll have on my own"  He says, grinning up at me.
"I can't wait"  I whisper, pecking him on the lips before rolling off him and standing up.  I wink at him and grab a suitcase, he stands up and grabs the other two, and soon we're putting them into the car and heading back to my house.  The second we get home, we go straight to bed, even though it's not even dark yet.  God, moving is exhausting.  I snuggle into his chest when he climbs into bed next to me.
"Virge?"  He whispers.
"Yeah?" I reply without opening my eyes.
"I'm so glad we're doing this" he says, stroking my hair.  I breathe out a laugh, lifting my head up to look at him.
"Me too" I say, watching him smile softly in the low light of the room. "How much more do we need to move?" I ask him.
"Probably one more trip!"  He says after thinking for a second.
"Just one more?"
"Only one more, babe" He says with a grin, hand still in my hair as I look at him, propped up on my elbows on his chest.  I lean down and kiss him deeply, moving my hands to his hair.  After a few seconds I pull back, resting my forehead on his and feeling his hot breath dance over my lips.  "And then I'm all yours". I laugh at his choice of words.
"Too late" I whisper quietly, before kissing him again.  We soon fall asleep, pressed together, drifting into our happy dreams of our future together.

"Patton?"  I ask him through hysterical laughter.
"Oh god, what did you find?"  He says, quickly getting up from there he was going through a chest of drawers on the other side of the room and rushing over to me, going through another cupboard.  I hold the photo that i found tight to my chest as I roll on the floor, still laughing.
"Hey!"  He says, jumping into me, attempting to wrestle the photo out of my hand.  After a while, I calm down, and he rolls his eyes and rolls off of me when he realises that he's not getting the photo back.  I sit on the now plastic covered sofa, that we're planning to sell, and look at the photo again.  He sits next to me, and buried his face in his hands, embarrassedly.
"So, how old are you in this?"  I ask him.
"I'm guessing... five?"  He responds, looking at the picture through his fingers. 
"Who's idea was the clown costume?"  I ask him, laughing.
He sighs, "Mine"
He looks so cute in the photo, he's wearing a stupid clown costume with a big red, curly wig.  His makeup looks a mess, and his big glasses are crooked on his nose.
"Halloween?"  I ask.
"Nope, just for fun" He sighs again, and starts to laugh.
"Wow" I laugh, "we're keeping this" I say, chucking the photo into one of the last cardboard boxes and closing it up.  I sigh and sit back on the sofa, he's looking around the room, sadly.  I move a hand to sympathetically stroke his shoulder.  "You ok?"
"Yeah, gonna miss this place, that's all"  I smile sadly at him. 
"I know" I whisper.
"But I know that my life is about to get so much better" he says, looking into my eyes.  He pulls me into his chest and kisses the top of my head.
"I love you" I whisper to him, wrapping my arms around his chest.
"I love you too" he says quietly.
