(Pic above (I'm on the left in the white shirt)) at ROWYSO Dallas *sigh* I've been thinking about my concert a lot for some reason I miss it so much BUTTT IM SO LOOKING FORWARD TO SLFL DALLAS

Can someone explain to me how soundcheck works cause I'm hella confused. Like ik what comes in the package and all that but I don't understand the process I guess.

Like explain to me what you do when you get there and all this stuff I'm hearing about checking in and getting a number on my hand and all that. I mean I kinda understand but not really so...help?

Also! Seating wise, this time it's not in the first ten rows or so right? Cause I'm in section 100 row N and I don't think that's the first few rows...or is it? Okay if you went to ROWYSO Dallas where is row N at Gexa or I guess what letter do the rows start at because I would like to know K THANKS

It was around 10pm on a Friday night, and Calum had finally arrived home after an exhausting day at uni followed by a shift at the restaurant that he worked at a few nights a week.

He had managed to save up enough money to move out of the dorms and into his own place about 20 minutes away from campus a few weeks ago, and he couldn't have been happier. He had driven past the group of five very similar looking units one morning, and his eyes were immediately drawn to the 'for rent' sign in front of the fourth one in the row. He had been hoping to move out of his shared dorm for a while now, so he didn't waste any time in ringing the agent to set up an interview. By the end of the week, he had the keys to his new home and he couldn't wait to get settled in. It was a quiet street, unlike what he was used to, but he welcomed the change. He had only seen his neighbours in passing, not having had the chance to properly introduce himself yet, but they seemed friendly. The best part of all of this, however, was that he was allowed pets here. He had driven straight to the pet store as soon as he had found this out and bought a 6 month old grey and white kitten and named him Dexter, and together they settled in to their new home nicely.

"Hey Dex." Calum spoke softly to the kitten as he made his way into the kitchen to get them both something to eat. He ate in the lounge, watching a re-run of a tv show he only half paid attention to, making a mental note to check it out sometime because it seemed kind of cool. At around 11pm, he picked up his sleeping kitten and got ready for bed, falling asleep almost instantly.

Calum was woken from his sleep by a loud crash in the lounge room, followed by a string of curse words and what sounded like the back door sliding shut. He immediately sat up and grabbed his phone to check the time, 3:07am, and he hesitantly got out of bed and grabbed the first semi-intimidating thing he could find, which happened to be his old skateboard. He spared a glance to his bed to check on Dexter, but the kitten must have gotten up at some point since he was nowhere in sight, before slowly making his way out of his room as quietly as possible. Calum had always been one to jump straight to the worst possible conclusions, so in the short walk from his bedroom to the lounge room he had already come up with at least 10 different scenarios of what could potentially be happening right now, none of which were even remotely close to the sight he was met with when he finally turned the corner.

Calum stood, seemingly frozen, in the entryway to the lounge with his skateboard held by his side and a shocked expression on his face. On the other side of the room was quite possibly the most gorgeous boy he had ever seen, big blue eyes and blonde hair and holy shit is that a lip ring, sitting cross legged on the floor playing with his kitten. A couple of minutes passed before Calum finally snapped out of his daze and awkwardly cleared his throat in an attempt to draw attention to himself as the boy still hadn't noticed him standing there.
