Summary
“Fucking shite,” Liam says, over the sound of the crowd’s growing murmurs. “Would’ve rather watched City fucking lose.” They all know he’s lying. Liam’d probably rather cut off his limbs one at a time than sit at home to watch City get thrashed.
It reminds Calum where he is, though, as he takes a sip of his beer with slightly shaky hands. He’s in fucking Manchester, in a dingy bar with two of the biggest pricks he’s ever met in his life, watching shitty bands play mediocre songs to avoid having to watch his football team get massacred by Everton. It grounds him, shakes him out of it, makes him remember that he’s here, in England, not in Sydney, and he’s twenty, not seventeen. That was then, and this is now.
But for a moment - just for a few seconds - he could have sworn that then and now were the same thing. Just for one moment, he could have sworn he’d seen Michael Clifford.

Summary
“Fuck,” Calum says, at the same time as the stranger whose foot he’s crushed says it. “I’m so sorry, mate. I’m — sorry. I got shoved.”
He looks over to the victim of his crime and whatever else he’d planned to say gets stuck in his windpipe. Holy shit. Nobody should be allowed to look this good at an acappella showcase, especially someone with pink hair. Fuck.
“It’s all good,” the pink-haired guy says, although he winces when he moves his foot. “That’s on me, shouldn’t have had my foot in the aisle, I guess.”

Summary
“I’ve always wanted to be in a band,” Luke admitted after a beat, looking down at his maths homework and smoothing out the edges of his paper. Michael was playing semi-viciously, jabbing at the keys. “No one’s ever wanted to, though.”
“Being in a band would be awesome,” Calum said, stretching. “Mikey and I both play guitar.”
“Me too,” Luke admitted. “Think you knew that, though.” Michael finally closed his game, looking up and offering Luke the first genuine smile Luke had seen from him so far.
“Cal and I talked about bands, but you can’t do much with two people.”
“We should be a band,” Calum said definitively. “This is a thing. We’re a band now.”
Luke’s smile was bigger now. “We’re a band now,” he echoed. When he returned to his maths homework, he was outright beaming.Or, the story of how 5 Seconds of Summer became a band (starting from the beginning) and how Michael Clifford realized he’d always been in love with Calum Hood (not starting from the beginning, not even close), and how taking on the world turned out to be less daunting than it seemed.
