josh: i'm coming to your house
tyler: it's an apartment, also no.
josh: why not ty
tyler: because i've only texted you like once, you still could be an ax murderer.
josh: we've been over this tyler. i am not an ax murderer jesus christ
tyler: ya never know
josh: yeah whatever i'm coming over
tyler: no
josh: yes
tyler: i kNOW NOTHING ABOUT YOU
josh: my name is josh dun, i'm 21 years old and i like taco bell
tyler: i like taco bell
josh: will you let me come over if i bring you taco bell?
tyler: i would consider it.
josh: i'm coming over.

it suddenly dawned on me that my apartment was a fucking disaster. looking around i saw the leftover chinese takeout boxes on the counter and the various clothes strewn around the room. tyler joseph you are extremely fucked.
i began to hurry around the room, trying to desperately salvage what used to be the floor.
i was slightly out of breath as i heard a knock on the door. oh god.
i opened the door slowly keeping the chain on and peering through.
"gonna let me in?" said josh with a smirk.
"do you have an ax?" i inquired.
he raised both hands in surrender, holding a taco bell bag in one hand. i closed the door and unhooked the chain before opening the door and letting him in.
it's ok tyler. calm down. just a cute boy. and also an almost complete stranger. nice.
josh was quick to make himself at home. he dropped the taco bell bag on the table and sat down on my sofa. i awkwardly perched on a chair opposite him, shifting uncomfortably as his gaze met mine.
"so tyler joseph. we meet again," he said with a smirk.
"uh- yeah." i said, trying not to meet his eyes.
"why are you sitting all the way over there?" he said.
"well i'm still trying to figure out why i let you in my house." i said.
"you think i'm cute," he smirked.
i could feel my ears turning red and instead i distracted myself with the taco bell bag in front of me. changing the subject i asked, "what'd you order?"
"i didn't know what you liked so i got you what i normally get. beef burrito." he said, taking it out of the bag and rolling it across the table to me.
"i'm normally a taco guy, but i like the gesture," i said with a shy smile.
"i'll keep that in mind for next time," he smiled back.
i unwrapped the burrito, inhaling the beautiful smell of taco bell goodness. the next few minutes were spent in somewhat comfortable silence as we both ate our respective meals. when we had both finished i went to go throw our trash away in the kitchen. as i bent over to put it in the trash can i could feel a presence behind me. low and behold i turned around to see josh leaning in the kitchen doorway, his trademark smirk plastered on his face. once again i felt my cheeks go red as i pushed by him and returned to the living room.
"you have a cute ass." he said blatantly.
i was thankful he was behind me as my face was redder than i even thought possible at that point.

two whole updates at once how spooky of me. at least this one is 570+ words. kinda excited to see where this goes;)
