instagram & drumsticks

0101

tyler- a well known famous instagram photographer, blogger, and singer

josh- a colored-hair drummer who aspires the unattainable with a fond love of beauty and the arts

both chasing after shadows of love and unfufiled dreams

but what if they stopped running with just a simple dm...

@tylerrjoseph has posted a new photo

    @tylerrjoseph: . i have a pretty sky but i need an even prettier guy .

I volunteer.

God...his photos really are breathtaking. How can such an image simply made out of broken pixels speak so close to the heart and even closer to the aesthetic pleasure. He seems like such a chill dude yet he seems so unapproachable. He's so deep and professional it seems but everyone has a nice and friendly side...right? They must appeal to some people somehow and I cant imagine they attract others with negativity and close-mindedness. 

I've always wanted to dm him or start a small conversation but right when im about to click send, my anxiety kicks in.

He,s gonna think you're a loser

Why even bother dm-ing him? He nearly has over 2 million followers and probably tens and thousands of dms let alone unopened dms, what makes you think he's gonna open yours? 

You're not even interesting. You're a try-hard emo trying to make it in life when all you are is a reject of society...

I sigh

I go back to the original photo and admire a little more for a bit 

I do something completely out of my comfort zone. I feel a little bit proud of myself for beating the anxiety in that moment and I began to type my thoughts in the comments.

@joshuadun: I gladly volunteer (:

Once I clicked send I almost instantly regretted even though a few people above me commented nearly the same words, I still felt a little bit uncomfortable sending the bizzare comment. The funny thing was was that everyone that commented that above mine were all girls, as far as I saw and he called for a guy.

WAIT

HE CALLED FOR A GUY

I JUST REALIZED GFFSDBJSFJSFBS

is he gAY?

IS HE BI??

FUKC

I actually had to calm down my breathing.

I was excited and joyous yet I didn't exactly know why- it's not like im actually gonna date him, hell, he's famous...

I came back to my senses and decided to get myself some cereal.

A came back to my phone with a screen covered with new follower notifications

what the hell is going on?

I unlocked my phone to be greeted with over 1,000 new followers, almost 800 likes, and roughly 350 comments. I was overwhelmmed.

where did all these people come from?

Than as I was scrolling through my unstopping notifications list my eye landed on something that made my breathing hitch and choke on the cinnamon toast crunch I was eating.

@tylerrjoseph started following you.
