"calum, you're really heavy," i whine, as i push him into ikea. he turns his head and faces me, a grin plastered on his face. i can't help but smile back at him, and without thinking, i boop his nose.

my eyes grow wide when i realized what i just did, and calum burst into a fit of giggles.

"did you just boop my nose?" he asks, and then gets back to laughing. i notice that when he laughs, he takes a heavy breath in, and then laughs some more, and then repeats his actions. this makes him have the most adorable laugh i've ever heard.

"your nose is just so boop-able." i say, and his cheeks flush slightly red, "but i'm serious, i can't push you around. you weigh a ton."

calum groans, and then awkwardly pulls himself out of the trolley. "it's all muscle, babe." he puts emphasis on the last word, and i roll my eyes at him.

"you're pushing!" i call over my shoulder, and lead him down an aisle that has doona covers.

"why are you buying a doona cover if you don't even have a bed?" cal wonders out loud behind me. 

i ignore him, and pick out a queen sized plain white doona cover, and throw it at calum, which thank the lord he catches, and places into the trolley.

we carry on getting the necessities that every apartment needs, like a microwave, lamps, cushions, a tv, desks and chairs, a dining table, kitchen appliances and much more. there goes half my money, i think as i pay for half of it at the counter. 

we decide to go to a different store to look for a couch and beds, so we load our bags into the boot of calum's car, and i get into the passenger seat.

"that was pretty successful if you ask me." calum states as he starts to drive us to our next location. i look at him while he drives, he looks really relaxed, and almost happy.

"yeah, it was." i agree 

"so, do you have any kinks?" cal casually asks me, and i choke on thin air. literally choke. it takes me a minute or two to get my breathing back to normal, with some unhelpful pats on the back from calum, which caused the car to swerve, because he most definitely cannot multitask. 

"where did that come from?" i ask when i can finally speak again

a sly smirk makes its way onto his face, as calum turns to face me. "just trying to get to know you better," he says with a wink "so, do you?"

"not really, i kind of just take whatever comes my way." i say, deciding to play the whole 'this conversation couldn't bother me less' facade.  calum's eyes widen as he hears my answer, and slowly shakes his head to himself

"so you're not a virgin then?" he keeps questioning me

"no, but i've only had sex once. how about you cal pal, are you a virgin?" i ask teasingly, playfully pushing his arm

he scoffs, then cockily says "have you seen me? what do you think?"

"hmmm. definitely virgin." i say, and his eyes quickly face mine, and his facial expression twists itself into a glare. "kidding! you're actually pretty hot, cal." i recover myself quickly, but mean what i say. i mean, i'm not blind. he's practically a god.

"like what you see, hey?" he asks, and i roll my eyes, once again. the car suddenly comes to a stop, and i realize that we are eat the furniture store. "lets go!" he says, and goes to jump out the car, but gets pulled back in by his seatbelt that he didn't unbuckle.

i reach over his lap, and unbuckle it for him, "try again, honey." i say with a teasing smile, and he quickly rushes into the store to hide his red cheeks.
