Hey guys make sure to let me know if there are any errors! I generally type these on my phone so it's easy to miss stuff plus I don't have a beta for the actual story to let me know if everything makes sense! Also let me know if you guys know of any great Noel stories out there! I find what I can but I'd always like to know of your favorites, hope you enjoy it!

By the time I got home Jackie had messaged me four times, although the messages mainly contained question marks which I figured was more to annoy me than to try and figure out what I meant, she knew me well enough to know that I would explain in detail when I got back.

I called out that I was home and dropped my keys into the bowl that we kept by the door. I heard Jackie's door shut and her feet shuffling, it was 7:30 so she was just waking up. She usually worked night shift so we had complete opposite schedules normally, although there had been the odd day where we both had the day off.

"So you've decided to come home and grace me with some answers have ya?" I gave a short laugh, she hadn't even been waiting that long. She glared. "Don't laugh at me you twit, who does that! Why couldn't you just text me details like a normal person!" I stuck out my tongue and put the kettle on for us.

"Well hello to you too love. Yes yes stop being impatient. I was at work today when suddenly someone rushed in and hid behind a bookshelf!" Pouring us both a mug, we say down.

"Err...that wasn't the whole story was it?" She dodged the little origami swan I had found on the table. "Okay, okay, sorry go on then."

"Thank you. Now anyway, so I coax this person up and it was that guy I told you that I saw at the onion the other night! Not that you would recognize him from there...I recall you being...indisposed as we'll call it." This time it was me who dodged. Laughing it off I continued. "Well it turns out that his name is Noel and even though I didn't, you might recognize him from somewhere else. The mighty botch or something? I can't quite recall that one, he said it was on BBC 3. Anyway I guess he's on never mind the buzz cocks as well? I told him id never seen him on there and-" I was cut off-ungraciously-in the middle of my sentence.

"You're joking right?! Please don't tell me you're talking about Noel fielding because I'll have to scream if you do, how could you not tell me earlier you lucky bitch!" Her eyes looked ridiculously large and I couldn't help but laugh as she looked at her watch and her face changed dramatically. "Oh shit, I have to get ready to go to work, you had better tell me the rest later!"

I shooed her off, not wanting her to be late like she so often was. Whistling as she walked off, I started to make dinner for myself, turning on the tv as I waited. Trying my luck, I looked to see if never mind the buzz cocks was on, and gave a small smile when I saw that it was on in around an hour. Perfect, there was time to make dinner and clean out my purse, which had somehow become a complete disaster since I had cleaned it last week.

Halfway through making dinner I decided to cheer Jackie up and sent her a text saying that Noel had asked for my number, maybe giving her a bit of hope for whatever delusional thought was running through her head but oh well, might as well have fun with it considering he probably wouldn't even shoot me a message anyway. If he was famous then he would most likely forgot me pretty soon, no matter how awesome I was (which was very, obviously).

After I finished cleaning out my bag I plopped onto the couch and turned the volume up now that the show was actually on. I had missed the opening but luckily not any of the actual show. Noel was hilarious and I was definitely excited to make watching the show a regular thing. Not enough tv had this kind of humor.

Feeling tired, I clicked off the tv and headed into my room, figuring I would get a bit of light reading in before falling asleep. I had the next day off but no reason to really stay up. Living the life, obviously.

It was a week and a half before Noel remembered that he apparently had my number. To be honest I was surprised that he even texted me.

'Hey love it's Noel, how's it been?'

I paused before messaging back, not really knowing what to respond as my life had been mundane other than bumping into him recently.

'Not terrible. How about you, staying away from the neighborhood girls I should hope?'

Work was fairly dead and the owner, as per usual was on vacation. He was never really here, just kind of left the place in my hands which had never been an issue. I was pretty much sitting and reading, some music playing most days. Even on bad days I couldn't complain about work. I made it a full chapter before he texted back.

'Only for you of course. You have any plans tonight? Getting an itch to go out, anything I can do to rope you in?' I smirked, what a guy. Honestly, who said things like that?

'An invitation rather than a roping would probably do the trick, what were you thinking? And no, I don't have any plans, not that they would have stopped you it seems'

It was another chapter or two before he replied but it was well past lunch rush and I wanted to read my book so I couldn't care less. I managed to get so into my book that the text tone actually startled me. Laughing at myself I opened his message

'Great, I'll pick you up at your place, around 8 then, yeah?' I scoffed and probably audibly rolled my eyes.

'Sure Noel, you can have my address, thanks for asking'

I sent it to him (of course) and continued reading my book for the rest of the shift. Apart from a few customers nothing interesting really happened, so I decided to close up early. No harm in having too much time to get ready.

As I unlocked my door I realized that I didn't know where we were going and had no idea what I should wear. Cursing, I grabbed my phone and threw my purse onto the couch.

'Hey, realized I don't know what I should be wearing, details?' I couldn't really do much so I threw the kettle on and waited for his text back. My phone dinged quickly this time, which I was glad for.

'Err..don't worry about it, I'll be there at 8 and we'll talk, see you then xx' I rolled my eyes and clicked the tv on. Of course he couldn't just give me a straight answer, had to make everything complicated. Giggling a little I flicked through the channels, obviously it wasn't really that big of a deal, I mean, I had no plans for tonight anyway. I had watched a few shows before my doorbell had rung. With a sigh and a stretch I walked to the door and lazily opened it.

"Hey you found the place okay?" He nodded as I gestured for him to come in. He plopped down on the couch and I found myself rolling my eyes. "Oh please, make yourself at home you twat." He giggled at the use of the word but then looked serious

"Hey now, that hurts you know!" I let out a brisk laugh and lightly punched him on the arm as I sat down on the couch as well.

"So what's the plan then? I didn't want to seem out of place but naturally, I couldn't get an answer out of you."

"Ah yeah, well, you see I was planning on us heading out to the pub with a few mates of mine but they've all pulled out for various reasons so..I brought movies instead and I'm also inviting myself in for a movie night. Pizza on me, of course." Naturally the first thought in my head was 'I'll just take you sans the pizza' and my second was 'well, not sans, but how about the two separate?' Welcome to my brain. Catching myself, I gave a real answer.

"Yeah sure, sounds good." Coughing to hide the small blush that had most likely been gracing my face, I went to hook up the dvd player instead of the wii.

"Great! I brought Labyrinth and Halloween, your pick from there love." My eyes had lit up as soon as he had said the word Labyrinth.

"You…brought Labyrinth?" He looked confused but nodded. "THAT ONE. FINAL DICUSSION OKAY THANK YOU." I had leaped up and snatched the dvd out of his hand. I had my own copy (two actually) but that one was more convenient. I could hear Noel laughing but I didn't care, it was Labyrinth time.

Sitting down on the couch after I had grabbed my laptop to order pizza with, I reached over and flicked the lights off.

"I don't know if you could tell, but Labyrinth is my favorite move. Not to mention I don't like scary movies so the choice was even easier. Anyway," I ignored the (shit eating) grin on his face, "here's the laptop to order pizza with, I don't know about you, but talking on the phone usually makes me nervous."

"You too? Oh good, my mates always take the piss out of me because I'm not a fan. What kind of pizza do you like?" We decided on just heaps and heaps on cheese and then actually started the movie. I swung my legs up over his lap, sticking my tongue out at him, his signal that he would just have to deal with it. That was how I always watched movies and he wasn't going to change it!

Around twenty minutes in the doorbell rang and Noel popped up to get the pizza. I paused the movie and gave him a hand with the pizza while he paid. I grabbed a slice for myself and then decided to hide the pizza, because why not.

I sat on the couch and munched on my pizza whiel Noel looked confused.

"Err, Roxie? Where'd the pizza go?"

"What pizza?"

"I hate you, you know that, yeah? Figuring he had had enough (pizza deprival is serious you know) I went into the kitchen and fished it from under the table.

"There you go you poor child, have your pizza" Laughing, I sat down and pressed play on the movie just as he sat down.

We finished the movie and decided that we would just hang out for a bit but then he needed to head home. I had no objections as I had to work the next day anyway. We chatted about a few random things and I don't know about him but I definitely felt that it was nice to click with someone.

"Noel thanks for hanging out tonight, you're pretty chill." He grinned and I rolled my eyes at his obvious cockiness.

"Well what did you expect love, millions of people don't enjoy seeing me on their tv's for no reason!" I snagged a punch at his arm

"Don't get too full of yourself you dork, nobody likes a guy with a big head!" He stuck out his tongue but then looked at me strangely. A nice strangely though,
maybe it was only strange because I hadn't seen a look like that in a while.

"I'm glad you like hanging out, like I said before it really is nice to hang out with someone who isn't just after me to say they shagged a famous guy. Besides, you're, what did you say? Pretty chill yourself love" His air quotes didn't ruin the moment per say, but they did make me crack up and throw my napkin at him for being such a dork. I looked at the clock and sighed, it was nearing 1am.

"You should probably head out unfortunately, seems we've spent more time talking than I thought and I have to work tomorrow morning." He pouted but got up nonetheless.

"Ill text you later, yeah? Don't expect this to be a one time thing, I am now declaring you my new best mate and forcing myself into your life you know!" I laughed and shook my head.

"You can't really do that but I'll let it slide since you bought us pizza. Good night Noel. Have a safe trip home." He shot me a cheeky grin and a little wave and closed the door.

I sat on the couch and sighed, looking at the ceiling. I felt the heat rise to my face as I thought about the night. What was I getting myself into?
