I've got time,
I'll give you all day.
I'll give you all day.
Noah liked going out. Sure. But he also very much enjoyed his sleep so a night where he could curl up in a bed with the duvet over his head was just as good to him. Like now, for instance, his bunk on the bus was super warm because he'd been rubbish and had a lazy night watching a film in his tiny bunk. It was pretty handy really that he wasn't particularly tall so he was comfortable unlike a lot of the guys on the tour. Having pushed his face into the pillow, Noah had fallen asleep instantly and was sleeping like a baby as he often did. Pushing his hands under his pillow, Noah lay down on his front and stayed like that for a while before he moved onto his back for a bit more comfort and breathed out. Snoozing was a great feeling and if it was up to him, he would never leave his bed. Maybe a snuggie could actually be a good idea? Noah's eyes flew open when something heavy landed on his chest and started bouncing up and down whilst hands mushed at his face. Reaching up, Noah tried to push the person off but they continued bouncing on his chest and shouting things. "bjdffgh!" Noah huffed out, his head totally still not in the right place regardless of the awakening he was being subjected to. "Happy Birthday Noah Hoa Boa!" Oh. Yeah. He forgot about that. Groaning as his eyes tried to adjust to the light, Rori wasn't actually heavy but her weight was still on his chest and not letting him up. No longer a teenager, huh. Trying to shove Rori off again, all he got was resistance in response and he scowled as it started into a wrestling match. He wasn't sure why he even tried because Noah got beaten up by everyone in his band pretty easily, especially by the girls. Hell, there were pictures to prove it.
Naturally, Noah ended up falling out of his lovely, warm bunk with a pout at the fact Rori had clearly just beaten him again. He rubbed his eyes lazily with the back of his hand as he stood in the middle of the bunk passageway in his boxer briefs. "So mean, Roar." It was pretty much all he could manage to form in terms of sentence structure but it got his point across. His face turned to one of a small smile though as he took the wrapped parcel she was holding out which was a present. Opening it quickly, Noah laughed out loud and managed to say "Wow!" A boxed inflatable doll looked back at him and he grinned as he opened the box. "At least I won't be lonely at night anymore." Noah spoke dryly and gave Rori a hug nonetheless. Scratching stomach and stretching his back, Noah headed into the front lounge and grabbed the letters on the table that someone had dropped off. His smile faded a little when he saw one particularly letter addressed to him in the familiar scrawl of his mother. Yeah, the one that hadn't talked to him in a year and a half now. Opening the envelope, Noah stopped himself and didn't pull the letter out, instead folding the lid shut and clutching it tight in his hand. That wouldn't be something he would be able to read right now. Heading back into the bunk area, Noah pushed it under his pillow before directing himself sleepily through to the bathroom to have a shower. Getting himself ready took a little while but at least he would be comfortable, plus it woke him up a bit. Pushing his hair across his forehead, Noah slipped his vans on and headed out with his sunglasses on. At least it would be a good day weather wise.
Noah grinned at the fans that were outside of their bus, all of them holding things. "Noah!", "Happy Birthday, Noah!" Smiling, Noah headed over to them and stood and talked for a while. Truthfully, he was one of the band mates that actually enjoyed hanging out with the fans when they weren't borderline obsessive of course. He posed for some pictures and gave genuine excitement as they handed over various birthday gifts for him. Wow, he seriously hadn't expected this. "This is fantastic, thank you." Noah grinned as he held up a t-shirt that someone had made. Giving out about a million hugs and posing for hundreds of pictures, Noah held his hands out when a huge book was passed to him and he opened it slowly. It looked like a photo album but inside was a full biography type of book about Winter Pursuit's first year signed to the record. "Holy shit!" He was actually gob smacked. How much effort had gone into this? "This is amazing. Oh my gosh. Seriously." Noah was actually shocked and humbled at the same time. Their music was reaching people, and that meant more then anything. The girl that had made this had been to over 20 twenty winter pursuit gigs and there were millions of polaroids from all of them. "Are you wanting to be a photographer?" Noah watched as she nodded with wide eyes. "Well, you're fantastic. You should totally keep it up." He said, honestly too. Stretching, Noah's stomach rumbled as usual and a few of them close to him laughed. Scratching it, Noah mentioned he'd be back later and holding the gifts, headed back to the bus to drop them off, telling the band to have a look at the book in particular. He was definitely going to have a gander through it later, perhaps get a little nostalgic.
Noah wandered to the food tent, flicking on his crackberry and feeling it vibrate a million times in his pocket. Being too lazy to actually open the messages, he left it and grabbed two pizza slices and a whole plate full of pasta. It would start him off anyway, hell knew how he could keep the skinny frame he had with the amount of food he ate, not that he was particularly complaining. Chomping through his food quickly as he sat with some of the techs, all too wishing him happy birthday, Noah finished and headed over to see Mary Jane. He was till in shock she had actually said yes to him asking her to be his girlfriend officially. Sure, they had gone out together numerous times and had a great time at each one, but perhaps he wasn't completely over Liberty like he thought. Hmm, he hadn't spoken about Lib or even mentioned her name in the past few weeks. Trying to push her from his mind, Noah concentrated on successfully get himself to where MJ was. He hadn't realised that it was actually gone mid-day by the time he met up with her, smiling and giving her a warm hug and a kiss on the cheek in politeness. "Hello Gorgeous." They hung out for a while, pottering about and going for a long walk through the tour grounds and meeting up with various people. Sure it was his birthday but he wasn't going to make a big deal of it, it wasn't like it was his twenty first or anything. In fact, it was just a reminder he would have to wait another entire year before he reached that mark. Depressing or what.
As they sat down, Noah finally used the time to check his messages, smirking at the various ones, some of them being like "Happy b-day bastard!' or something along those lines. People were so nice to him sometimes. Sending a quick thanks to a few of them before he got bored, Noah turned his attention back to MJ and curled up on the sofa with her, his arm behind MJ on the sofa in a half hug. He really did like her, of that there was no question. She was funny and she was one of the few girls, barring the Winter Pursuit crew, who could actually make him stop the bullshit. Playing with her hair idly, Noah hated himself for every now and then remembering when he used to sit with Liberty and do this exact thing. Was that fair to Mary Jane? Probably not, but he deserved to be happy as well and clearly Liberty wanted nothing to do with him so he wasn't going to wait around, not when there was lovely ladies like Mary Jane there. They managed to waste a fair amount of time together and Noah was actually surprised at how the time had flown with her, with his new girlfriend. Pressing a kiss to her temple, Noah smiled against her skin. "We should go meet the others." Checking the time, Noah winced when he saw that they were late. Oh well, Noah was late to EVERYTHING, even if he adamantly denied it. Late to shows, late to rehearsal, late to dinners and apparently Noah was destined to be late to his own birthday town expedition. Linking his hand with MJ's, they headed out again to where they were supposed to meet.
Spotting Kelley first above everyone else, Noah grinned. Maybe if he didn't mention it, they wouldn't notice they were late. "Alright kiddies!" Noah grinned obnoxiously as they got closer to them. If he couldn't be even more egotistical on purpose on his birthday then when could he? Who cared that he was still younger then most of the people there. Noah looked up a little as the giant that was Kelley stepped closer and gave him a good old fashioned bro hug to which Noah returned as best as he could with one arm in slight confusion. The smack on his back hurt more then he let on but Noah was certainly NOT prepared to show that to either of them since he wouldn't hear the end of it. Sure, he wasn't one to claim he was the strongest guy in the world because he certainly wasn't but still, he had an ego to uphold, so he simply scratched the area as if he had an itch there. He jabbed Rori in the stomach as a laugh but received a punch back in his arm, making him pout at her. "So violent." Smirking in a typical Noah fashion, he greeted everyone else that was coming along and there was a fair few, although some of them would no doubt go to other bars and stuff during the night. "So where are we going then?" Glancing forward to see where he was walking, Noah shrugged. "I don't really think getting completely wasted would be a good idea in front of MJ, just yet." Noah muttered to the guys, before sending a smile back to his girlfriend to check that she hadn't heard. He wanted to make sure that what she had heard about him wasn't true. Okay, maybe it was, but rather he would prefer to let her see that he wasn't crazy and out of control. A good, slow enjoyable night with his friends would be good and totally possible... right?
