I believe the answer is:

justin

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'he's' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'only this minute' is the wordplay.
'only' becomes 'just' (synonyms).
'this minute' becomes 'in' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'just'+'in'='JUSTIN'

'come home' acts as a link.
This may not be correct. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for justin that I've seen before include "Boy's name" , "Boy" , "-- Timberlake, singer" .)
