nate: i work at a record store and i live in adelaide and i love 5sos

noelle: is that it
noelle: that's your life

nate: HEY IT'S A GOOD LIFE

Calum loved his life - not his pretend one though. Listing things he actually liked might seem suspicious because Noelle could know them already.

noelle: WHAT'S YOUR FAVOURITE SONG?

nate: I CAN'T PICK ONE

noelle: LAME!
noelle: just pick one

nate: FINE
nate: empty with you by the used

He just picked a random song from a band he liked because there was a good chance Noelle knew his actually favourite song.

noelle: favourite movie?

nate: high school musical

noelle: which one?

nate: the first one obviously

noelle: OKAY
noelle: favourite book?

nate: i don't really read

noelle: o_o

nate: WHAT LOL

noelle: GO TO A BOOK STORE BUY A THE PERKS OF BEING A WALLFLOWER, READ IT THEN TALK TO ME

nate: are u serious
nate: okay you're serious
nate: can you at least tell me what it's about

noelle: Read it. Find out.

nate: ALRIGHT

Calum opened a new tab and searched in the title book. He was relieved to find that there was a movie version of the story.

nate: CAN I JUST WATCH THE MOVIE?

noelle: NO WAY BOOK FIRST

nate: it's going to take so long to read

noelle: it's so good i promise
noelle: i wouldn't make you read garbage

nate: i guess i should go get it then

noelle: yayayyayay
noelle: message me when you've finished
noelle: ONLY WHEN YOU'RE FINISHED

Noelle was really cool and that was the only reason why Calum was dragging himself to the nearest book store. The rest of the day he spent in his bed reading the book. He couldn't put it down and that meant he was up till 3am reading it. By the end of it he was genuinely asking himself why he spent hours reading a book for a girl online.

25th April 2015

51 days before

nate: I READ IT

noelle: WHAT DID YOU THINK

nate: it was so good!!!

The next hour was spent talking in detail about the book - mainly to prove to Noelle that he actually read it.

nate: so as i read a WHOLE book for you
nate: you've got to listen to a few albums

noelle: hit me

nate: artwork by the used
nate: take off your pants and jacket by blink-182

nate: i'll listen to that later
nate: favourite album?

noelle: oh that's easy
noelle: nothing personal

nate: you're such a michael

noelle: OH YEAH HA

"Calum," Michael shouted followed by several, loud knocks on the door.

"What," Calum shouted, closing his laptop and putting it aside.

"You were supposed to be downstairs ten minutes ago," He said indignantly, opening the bedroom door.

"Sorry," Calum said and hopped off the bed and followed Michael out of the room.

Downstairs everyone had gathered around a table and Calum automatically knew it was going to be an official and long talk. He had been a bit caught up with all the chat room stuff that he had pretty much neglected most of his responsibilities.

"The tour starts in just over a week and there a few things we need to go over," Their tour manager announced.

Calum internally groaned and rested his hands on his chin. A few things meant at least an hour of incessant talking. For some reason he really wanted to get back to his laptop so he could carry on talking to Noelle. He had hardly thought about the upcoming tour during the past two days because he was more interested to get to know more about Noelle.
