(Calum's POV)

I looked again at that paper. Should I really call her? Maybe I bother her. Maybe she thinks I'm a nerd, well, I'm sure she thinks that, but... What options do I have? I don't want to have bad grades just because of a call. Come on Hood, you can do this.

...

Okay Hood, press that green button. You can do it.

" Hello? " She said.

I froze.

" Ummm... Who is this? Hello? " She repeated.

" Yes! Yes! Y/N! Umm... It's Calum " I suddenly said.

" Oh! Calum! Hey! How are you? " She laughed.

" Hey! Ummm... Fine thanks. Umm... I was wondering if you could come to my house, you know to start the Science project. If you want, just if you want, id you don't it's f-"

" Haha yeah that would be cool. What time? " She said.

" What about 5? "

" Perfect, send me a message with your direction then. See yah Calum" 

" Bye! "

WOW... I JUST TALKED TO Y/N Y/S/N. IT WAS REEEEEEALLY COOL.

Okay, it's 4 o'clock so I need to clean my bedroom. Because it's a mess. 

- 5:00 -

Ding... Dong...

WHAT!? IT'S 5! She's here! I ran downstairs and I opened the door, so see her there looking down at her screen. She looked at me and smiled.

" Oh hey Calum! "

" H-Hey... Come in, please " I smiled and she entered.

She was wearing some lenguins, with a All Time Low tshirt, some vans and a black beanie.

" Umm... Let's go upstairs to my bedroom, so we can start " I said.

" Perfect "

I opened the door to my bedroom and she left her bagpack next to the desk.

" Wow, you're so organized, my bedroom is a mess " She laughed.

" Well, it's not this clean usually " I answered.

She opened her bagpack and pulled out the sciences book and a few sheets of paper. I sat on my chair and she sat next to me on another chair.

" Well, where do we start? " She asked.

" Let's start by reviewing unit 5, it contains a lot of information we can include in the project " I suggested.

" Okay "

I was gonna turn the page but she was gonna do that too and our hands touched. I didn't move my hand and she didn't move hers. She looked at me.

" I think we should turn the page " She laughed a bit.

" We-we should " I said frozen.

We turned the page together and I was freaking out. She didn't say "ew" or pulled away her hand, she just looked at me and smiled.

We worked hard for an hour, until she said:

" We should take a break. I see you like All Time Low " She said looking at my posters.

" Yes, I see you like them too " I smiled.

" Are you kidding me? They're my favourite band! " She said excited.

" They're mine too! " 

" Wow... I didn't think you could like them too, you know... You are... Well... Forget it... " She said.

" A nerd? Yeah "

" What? No, I'm so sorry I wasn't gonna say that, I'm sorry "

" You were, don't pretend " I fake smiled looking away.

" No... " She said and she placed her hand on mine looking into my eyes " You're not a nerd. You're a nice shy boy, and I like that " 

" Well thanks, but your friends say-"

" I don't care what they say. They just care about being popular and all that stuff. I'm not like them. And... I don't agree with them, a nerd doesn't like rock come on " She laughed.

I smiled. She was different...
