"hey, j?"
he rolls over in his sleep. i know he's sleeping. but everything is eating at my brain right now. i pull on his hand lightly. the room is silence.
"hey, are you okay?"
i start to cry.
he turns on the lamp next to his side of the bed. our room is barely lit, but he can see my face, and he holds me.
"what's wrong?"
"i feel so guilty."
"why? what's wrong?"
"i want so many things with you."
"like what?"
"to be with you forever. to get married, have kids, grow old with you."
"what's wrong with that?"
"nothing. i just want it all now."
"we will get that, babe."
"i want a daughter named rosie and a son named jim, running around a nice house with a picket fence. and maybe we could have a dog too. and we could be happy. and they would have your dashing humor, and your shining personality."
"what would they have of yours?"
"i don't have very great characteristics."
"you have the biggest heart of any person i have ever met, tyler joseph."
"...joshua?"
"yeah?"
"i think i changed my mind."
"what do you mean, love?"
i just stare at his face for a little while, taking in every detail. the way the edges of his face come up in a smile, and the way his eyes look at me. it's so hard to explain to anyone the depth of love i feel for him.
".. before, i said i wanted to keep my last name. so i could keep my individuality."
"yeah?"
"i want your last name. when we get married."
"really?"
"yeah. i want to be a dun."
the edges of his mouth go higher as he grabs me.
"you're a dun now and forever."
"what do you mean?"
"i'm calling you tyler dun now."
"you're cute," i tell him as he shuts the lamp off.
"you're cuter," he whispers.
he wraps his arms around me and cuddles me into our bed.
"i love you, joshua dun."
"i love you, tyler dun."
a/n: they're so cute 😭
