Jaden

I sighed after reading his texts, then began scrolling up.

I remember during the first tour, it was difficult for us to reach each other.

It was about 3 in the morning, and I was waiting for Calum to text me after his show in Bangkok, Thailand. He said I should would be expecting a text from him 2 hours ago, but I stayed up because I wanted to talk to him.

My eyes were getting heavier, but a vibration in my hand caused my eyes to shoot open. I unlocked my phone and saw in my notifications that Calum had texted.

cal: hey!

cal: sorry, i thought i could text you earlier but the 1D boys got us pizza and we played video games.

cal: if you're not awake, good morning!

cal: when you see this :p

jade: i'm awake.

cal: hey, love

jade: hey

cal: how are you?

jade: really tired.

cal: sorry :(

cal: the show was wicked! ugh such as good time. i love being on stage.

jade: that's so nice to hear.

cal: yeah, and we met a shit ton of fans too. 5sos is really getting big, jade.

jade: yeah, i know. i see headlines of you guys whenever i go online.

cal: it's so cool!

jade: yeah

cal: you okay?

jade: yeah just tired.

cal: you have school in the morning

jade: uh huh

cal: i don't wanna keep you awake, get some sleep

jade: but i wanna talk to you

cal: we'll talk tomorrow

jade: uh ok

cal: goodnight, love

jade: gn

After that conversation, I let the fatigue take over, and I passed out.

We had a lot of short conversations that ended in one of us getting left on read.

jade: i'm having dinner with your family tonight.

cal: cool, tell them i say hi!

jade: your mum made your fave :)
