A/n: omg I'm so sorry I haven't updated for so long. Schools been stressful lately and I'm just trying to figure things out. Anyways, have a crappy filler chapter :)

Tyler PoV

Finally, the day had come for me to go home. Josh and I had barely been speaking lately. I felt guilty for lying to him about how I really felt, but I already knew how guilty he was about the accident. I couldn't add to that.

Honestly, I wish that car would have killed me. But in some ways, I'm glad it didn't. Living with Josh had really made me realise my feelings for him and I'm so grateful for him, really I am. But I couldn't lie to him anymore and I couldn't bare the thought of him being mad at me. We hadn't spoken since the argument the other day, I had to put things right.

Josh had cooked that night, nothing special really, just spaghetti. I was thankful nonetheless. When we both sat on the sofa with plates on our laps, Josh turned on the TV. As he started to become interested in some weird documentary about cats, I turned to him 

"Josh" I said, but he didn't seem to hear. I cleared my throat and tried again

"Josh" I repeated louder this time. He turned to me with a mouth full of food and raised his eyebrows, signalling me to continue

"Um, I-I'm really sorry" his eyebrows furrowed. He looked confused.

"For what?" He finally spoke up

"Everything. I'm sorry that I forced myself on you, I'm sorry that you ended up having to look after me, I'm sorry that I lied about how I was feeling. I'm just sorry" I was looking at my lap and playing with my hands when Josh linked his hand with mine. My heart sped up

"Hey, don't be silly. You have nothing to be sorry about. It's all my fault, really. And I shouldn't have tried to force you to share your feelings with me, it was wrong"

"No, I should have been honest. Really, I'm still not being honest but I don't exactly know what to say"

"About what, Ty?" The nickname made my heart flutter

"I - um, never mind. It's not important"

"Please" his eyes were wide and he looked concerned but I didn't say anything. We looked at each other for what seemed like hours but was only actually a few seconds. I realised that our hands were still entwined and we were suddenly sitting very close to each other. Finally, I leaned in. I had no idea what I was doing, I'd never really kissed anyone properly before but suddenly my lips were on Josh's. Josh Dun. I was kissing Joshua Dun and oh my god.

It took him a few seconds to register what was happening before he started to kiss back. It was messy. It was spit and teeth crashing together and tongues getting in the way but I wouldn't have changed a thing. After a while I pulled away and stared into his eyes.

"Well, I'm glad you finally told me Ty" he said, a wide grin on his face. I burst out laughing, my cheeks going red and I punched him lightly on the arm

"I need you to stay" he added

"Stay? Like for tonight?"

"No. Like forever. Move in with me, permanently"

The word 'permanently' scared me. But when Josh used it, It didn't seem so scary anymore. I looked at him and smiled

"I really like you Josh Dun"

"I really like you back, Tyler Joseph"
