(19:40) Yes?
(19:43) I think it’s my turn to ask a question.
(19:46) Oh yeah, right. Sorry.
(19:50) You’re very hyperactive, did you know that?
(19:53) My friends call it ‘reckless to the point of stupidity’.
(19:57) Although I like ‘hyperactive’ :3
(20:03) It does have a cuter ring to it.
(20:05) You think I’m cute?
(20:07) Next question.
(20:09) You can’t pass! You have to answer! :P
(20:12) Fine. I can’t deny that I like talking to you and your voice. At the very least you have a ‘cute’ if hyper personality.
(20:16) What was your favourite subject at school?
(20:19) I studied sports, history and German.
(20:25) How long have you been teaching?
(20:27) Ten years. Although it’s felt a lot longer.
(20:35) What was the last movie you went to see, and did you enjoy it?
(20:39) That feels like a sneaky two-part question ;) but I’ll play along.
(20:45) I went to watch ‘A QUIET PLACE’ with Arthur and Sophie. It was so scary! I’ve never been to a cinema where everyone was so engrossed in the movie that no one made a sound!
(20:51) No phone screens lit-up, no one rustled bags of sweets … I didn’t even want to go to the bathroom in case I shattered that bubble!
(20:59) I’m not a huge fan of horror films.
(21:04) I wouldn’t call it a straight-up horror, though. It’s more like … sci-fi thriller.
(21:06) Even so.
(21:11) Aw if you get scared, I’ll hold your hand for you ;)
(21:16) That means you’ll have to meet me first.
(21:22) Is that such a bad thing? The more I talk to you the more I like you :)
(21:29) I like you too, Cavan.
(21:32) I especially like hearing you say my name.
(21:36) I won’t lie, I chuckled at that. Don’t make me abuse my power over you.
(21:41) FINEEEE I’ll behave.
(21:47) Such a good boy.
(21:50) I feel like you should be ruffling my hair right now.
(21:53) Would you like that?
(21:57) Don’t tell anyone but … I love when people play with my hair. It sucks that it more or less stops once you hit double-digits.
(22:00) I promise to ruffle your hair at least once when we meet.
(22:03) So … we’re definitely going to meet, then?
(22:08) I’d like to, if you would.
(22:14) Of course!
(22:17) Right, now, I’m going to have to leave you, brat. Jack Reacher is calling out to me.
(22:20) You’re leaving me for another man?!
(22:25) What can I say? He can do tricks that no one can beat. Can use his amazing memory for a lot of things.
(22:28) Oh my God that’s so dirty and cheesy and what is HAPPENING?!
(22:32) Haha I’m sure I can think up a good few more. They’ll haunt your dreams.
(22:38) No, no, no, no, no!
(22:43) You are NOT going to pick me up using Jack Reacher!
(22:50) Well if it works, why not? Better than picking you up in a Starbucks.
(22:54) Good grief you don’t go there do you?
(22:59) Do I sound like a hipster to you?
(23:06) Well, not unless you have thick glasses, wear beanies and cardigans, then no.
(23:08) Sadly, I can only check glasses off that list. I despise cardigans on men and I’d never be caught dead in a beanie hat.
(23:11) I’m trying to get my mental picture of you to match up with ‘wears glasses’.
(23:14) Doesn’t seem to be working.
(23:21) Does this help?
(23:27) OMFGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
(23:45) Cavan?
(23:58) Goodnight brat.
Chapter 6
Saturday PM
(12:03) So … Eleanor’s dog had puppies.
(12:06) OMG REALLY?!
(12:08) Well, around a month or so ago. Cross-bred but rather … fluffy?
(12:13) The word you’re looking for is ‘cute’ and OMG can I see?!
(12:17) What is it with everyone and puppies?
(12:20) Puppies are adorable little balls of energy that love you even if you’re a shit human being. They’re magic!
(12:25) Maybe I should keep one for myself.
(12:30) Aw you’re not a shit human being, Lucas. Sarcastic as fuck, yes, but ‘shit’ is a little excessive.
(12:33) Even for you.
(12:35) Gee thanks.
(12:39) You’re welcome :D Sooo? Puppies?
(12:42) Urgh fine. Bear with me.
(12:45) [.JPEG] This is Bilbo.
(12:53) OMG YOU KNOW LORD OF THE RINGS?!
(12:59) Do I look like I’ve been born under a rock? Yes I know Lord of the Rings.
(13:05) Oh wow he IS fluffy.
(13:08) And the others?
(13:10) You’re insufferable.
(13:16) [.JPEG] Eleanor and Sherlock.
(13:22) AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
(13:28) [.JPEG] And this is Belle.
(13:49) Couldn’t stretch it to one last fantasy name?
(13:53) Don’t knock Disney kid. You’ll never win.
(13:58) Okay. I just need to ask one question.
(14:04) How do you rate FROZEN?
(14:09) Sadistically over-rated.
(14:11) IKNOWRIGHT?! It was a song! A FRIGGIN’ SONG!
(14:19) And if anyone else had sung that song it wouldn’t be nearly as powerful.
(14:23) Cavan.
(14:26) What?!
(14:30) I think you have to let it go.
(14:56) Haha no! I fell off the sofa laughing and now Sophie is lecturing me! Totally worth it!
(15:00) I’m going to have to apologise to your sister for ruining so many moments with you guys.
(15:03) Sadly, I need to go and be sociable so I’m being forced to leave my phone in my room for at LEAST two hours.
(15:06) That’s monstrous torture.
(15:10) I know right?! Lucas SAVE ME!
(15:15) What do you want me to do? Chopper my way through your ceiling and take you? Where would we even go? Run away to Canada?
(15:20) … Yes. All of that!
(15:23) Go and play Cavan.
(15:26) Enjoy the puppies for me!
(15:30) No.
~
(18:46) Hey Cavan, I was wondering if you had an extra heart. Mine was just stolen.
~
(18:59) If nothing lasts forever, will you be my nothing?
~
~
(19:06) OMG I just came up to get my phone and I have to read these?!
(19:08) With my actual EYES!
(19:14) Hey Cavan ;) I missed u!
(19:17) I missed you too?
(19:19) Don’t hate on a man who hasn’t been dating for yrs!
(19:22) Lucas, have you been drinking?
(19:28) I think so. Eleanor poured it so … yes?
(19:32) Oh God …
(19:35) Hey Cavan?
(19:36) Cavan?!
(19:37) CAVANNNNNNNN!
(19:41) Yes, Lucas?
(19:45) Are you a dictionary? Cause you’re adding meaning to my life.
(19:48) Oh God, that hurt my insides! XD
(19:54) Eeeeee okay.
(19:57) I may not be a genie, but I can make your dreams come true :P
(20:01) Fuck you, I choked on a cookie!
(20:06) Wanna choke on something else?
(20:07) OMFG you’re such a dirty drunk!
~
(20:27) R u busy?
(20:31) I was just getting ready to have a shower. Whyyy?
(20:37) Can I call?
(20:41) Maybe not the best time.
(20:46) Pleee
eeeeeeeeeeeasr?
(20:51) No. Where’s Eleanor?
(20:55) Idk I went out for a smook
(20:59) A smook? Wait, you smoke?
(21:06) Does that bother u?
(21:11) I guess I’ve never really thought about it.
(21:19) AHHHHHH OMG CAVAN HEP!!!! FRIZZ-FACE IS COMING 4 ME!
(21:22) Good luck, nerd!
Sunday PM
(14:07) I think I drank too much?
(14:09) Really?
(14:15) Mmmm. My head is killing me, and I woke up on the sofa. My back feels like a bunch of loose pebbles.
(14:17) Oof, that aged you.
(14:23) I can only hope that all this drinking is because you are so distraught at having not met me yet, as opposed to you actually having a teeny bit of a problem.
(14:29) Fuck you Freud.
(14:31) Oh yes, charm the pants back ON me. That’s a twist!
(14:35) I don’t have the brain power for this.
(14:39) You’re lucky it’s a Sunday and I have no other plans right now. I mean, I could be studying for all you know.
(14:43) I’m so sorry. I’m a terrible person.
(14:48) It’s okay I still find you funny.
(14:53) Huh?
(14:56) Scroll up.
(15:05) I just … there are no fucking words for the embarrassment I’m feeling right now.
(15:11) Awww see, before I was really tempted to mock you, but I bet you look so sad and cute bundled up on the sofa, with big bags under your eyes.
(15:15) Fuck off, shitty brat.
(15:19) Maybe next time you should just give your phone to Eleanor or something?
(15:23) Hmmm. That maniac would probably track you through GPS or some shit.
(15:28) She can’t really do that … can she?
(15:34) Oh, touchy are we? Why? Something you don’t want me to know?
(15:36) Hardly.
(15:42) Ahhh! My skull feels like it’s trying to break free.
(15:47) Great. Now that songs going to be stuck in my head all sodding day.
(15:52) Don’t be mean to me. My skulls going to crack open and I still have papers to mark.
(15:56) You poor man! Can I help???
(15:59) I wish you could.
(16:05) Very tempted to give everyone the same grade. Is that unethical?
(16:09) No! You’d be the coolest teacher ever.
(16:16) Oi brat! I’m already the cool teacher.
(16:19) You’ll need some shades for tomorrow.
(16:23) Shades?
(16:26) For your bloodshot eyes.
(16:31) I’m sure I can dig some out from somewhere.
(16:37) So … you’re a smoker?
(16:41) Er … yeah. Is that going to be a problem for you?
(16:45) I’ve never really thought of it before. I guess it’s fine.
(16:54) See now I feel like you’re just saying that. Do any of your friend’s smoke?
(16:57) … No.
(17:00) I see.
(17:04) But it’s fine! I don’t mind!
(17:06) I guess we’ll see.
(17:09) Well –I mean –I’m sure there’s things about me that you’d find weird or irritating.
(17:13) Like what?
(17:15) I crack my knuckles a lot.
(17:17) I … er … snort when I laugh?
(17:20) Oh! I have it!
(17:23) You don’t have shit.
(17:25) I totally have it!
(17:29) I have a small behavioural problem.
(17:33) What sort of problem?
(17:36) It’s only a minor thing. A very mild form of ADHD according to father dearest.
(17:40) Do you need meds for it?
(17:46) No. Had some when I was younger, but it’s okay now. For the most part. I just can’t seem to keep myself still. Something will jiggle, or I’ll start drumming a very loud tune. Sophie usually keeps me in check but she’s not in half my classes.
(17:54) She got me a fidget-spinner for Christmas.
(17:57) Those are meant to be good.
(18:00) I broke mine.
(18:04) Of course you did.
(18:06) Hey don’t judge me!
(18:08) Judging.
(18:10) LUCAAAAAAAAS!
(18:13) God you sound like Eleanor.
(18:15) Haha!
(18:17) You’re so lucky you can’t scare me off so easily. Otherwise I’d disown your arse.
(18:19) No you wouldn’t!
(18:22) No, you’re right.
(18:24) I like you too much.
(18:27) You … mean that?
