"It's 1am, you should try get some sleep," Sam said quietly to Noelle.
"I'm waiting for him." Noelle's gaze travelled across the room and halted at the front door.
"Don't you want to see him whilst looking more princess than zombie?"
"Hey!" Noelle exclaimed, launching two pillows at Sam's smug face.
The aroma of jubilance was cut when there were three loud knocks on the door. Noelle and Sam's eyes locked with each other's immediately, both asking each other if what they had heard was real.
The knocks were heard again. This time the sound of them sent a surge of overwhelming realisation, even though Noelle didn't even know if it was Calum. She jumped out of her seat and ran to the door, nearly slipping over, as well as sliding on the floorboards.
Was he going to be behind this door? Was he going to be there with open arms for her?
She stopped at the door, grabbed the handle, opened the door and there he was. Although the Noelle knew exactly what Calum looked like, there was still a sense of unfamiliar beauty when he looked at him - in other words, she still couldn't believe how hot he is.
"Noelle," He spoke softly as a huge smile crept onto his face. She didn't bother trying to form a word or sentence and instead she wrapped her arms around his waist and buried her head in his chest.
"I missed you so much," She told him with relief as he hugged her back. This confined space was where she wanted to stay. For, she felt safe and she didn't feel scared.
"I missed you too."

"This is Sam. My best friend. Sam, this is Ca–"
"Her amazing boyfriend," Calum interrupted. Noelle swatted his arm and narrowed her eyes at him. He chuckled and casually put his arm around Noelle.
"I'm a big fan," Sam said, stunned by his presence.
"Thank you." Calum gave her a warm smile. "I like you already."
Sam returned his smile with a sheepish one and looked over at her best friend.
They exchanged a hug and goodbyes and Sam left the house.
"What do you want to do?" Noelle asked Calum, turning to face him and meeting his gaze. He grabbed both of her hands in his noticeably larger hands and rubbed his fingers along her palms.
"You."
