Calum had been going on random chat rooms, similar to the ones Michael and him had been on years ago to mainly talk about video games to other gamers, for about an hour.
He didn't know why he was sat in his hotel room, on his laptop, doing this at 4am.
Despite a day of strenuous activities, he didn't feel tired at all and knew he probably wouldn't be able to get to sleep anytime soon.
He joined one that had a cool name and since all these chat rooms were made on the same website, kept his already made account and name.
Calum Hood joined the chat.
Noelle: I LOVE CALUM HOOD
Noelle: imagine if that was him
Noelle: LOL HI U LIKE 5SOS THEN?Calum chuckled as he read the messages that appeared. On other chat rooms, people hadn't asked about his name - they probably didn't know who he was.
He wasn't about to say 'no no it is me' because firstly, no one would believe him and secondly, that wouldn't be fun.
So, on the basis of it being 4am and wanting an escape from boredom, he decided to pretend to be a fan of his own band.
Calum Hood: I love 5sos
Sid: HELLO NEWBIE
Noelle: WHO'S YOUR FAVOURITE MEMBER?? SID STAY OUT OF THIS U DONT LIKE THEM
Sid: THIS IS A CHAT ROOM FOR VIDEO GAMES NOT FOR SHIT BANDS
A loud laugh escaped Calum's lips as he read that message.
Biting down on his lip to stifle his laughter, he picked which member - excluding himself - to be his favourite.
At 4am, his band mates would be asleep and if he woke them up, they would probably storm into his room and punch him.
Calum Hood: I can't pick who's your fav member??
He obviously wanted her to say Calum.
Noelle: CALUMMMM
Smiling widely, he moved his laptop to the end of his bed, laying down in front of it.
Sid: well bye i have better things to do
Calum Hood: bye
Noelle: by better things he means watch porn and play fifa
Calum Hood: two of my favourite things to do
Noelle: so what's your name?
After writing the first ten names that came into his head on a sticky note, he picked one at random.
Calum Hood: Nate. How old are you?
Calum was slightly worried because he wanted to keep talking to this person but she could be ten years old and then he would feel weird talking to her.
Noelle: NATE ARCHIBALD
Calum Hood: ???
Noelle: from gossip girl!!
Noelle: I'm 17 wby?Sighing with relief, he made a mental note to check out Gossip Girl.
Calum Hood: 19
Noelle: SO YOU COULD BE CALUM THEN
Calum Hood: I WISH
As much as Calum wanted to say that it was him and then find a way to prove it and carry on messaging Noelle, he didn't.
He kind of liked the fact that this person didn't know who he was.
Especially - because of his fame - he never knew if people were purposely acting different around him.
Noelle: Talk to you later (if you don't think I'm lame)
Calum Hood: you're not lame cya
Calum closed his laptop and placed it on the floor beside his bed.
He rested his head on his pillow, closing his eyes, even though he didn't feel sleepy, and thought about what he would do it he continued to talk to Noelle.
He wanted to because she seemed cool - and also was a fan of his band - but pretending to be a fan of his own band just to get closer to a girl online seemed kind of pointless. She would find out the truth eventually.
But Calum was going to do it anyway.
