All I want (twenty one pilots fanfiction)

Chapter Nine

I woke up feeling unexpectedly well. I had a good night of sleep, which helped a lot. I saw it was 11:30 am, and figured my parents were going to be awake by now, even though it was only 8:30 in Seattle. I was going to have to call them sooner or later, now was probably going to be better than any other moment. I chose my mom from my contact list and pressed the button. She picked up and we did some small talk. I heard my granddad say hi from the background and smiled. After calling for about 15 minutes we hung up. Ben promised me that he was going to help my grandparents figure out skype so I could videocall them sooner or later. So that was cool. I got out of bed and made myself breakfast, consisting of apple pancakes with sugar.

After breakfast I took a shower. It was lukewarm, because it was kind of hot outside, and also inside. 10 minutes later I was fresh and clean. I decided to not go anywhere so I didn’t have to put on make-up or nice clothes. I put some ointment on my still sore and bruised knuckles, hoping to soothe the pain and to turn them a little less blue and red than they were now. I laid myself on the couch and watched Sherlock. After the episode I looked at my phone, and saw I had three texts. 2 from my Seattle friends to ask how I was doing. I replied: “Video chat later? :*” and a text from Tyler.

“Tomorrow, I’ll pick you up around 2. Don’t dress too fancy. Okay?” I raised an eyebrow, “okay J where are we going?” I stared at my phone, then checked twitter. I saw some tweets from famous people, people from school and some family members. Tyler had retweeted something from someone called Josh Dun, but I wasn’t focused enough to actually read or remember what it was.

Five minutes later I got up and turned on some music. I grabbed my book and started reading. Then I made lunch and took a nap, I was having an amazingly productive day. I decided that I should do something, so I asked some girls from the team if they wanted to go play a game at a field. I biked to the gym and grabbed a ball. There were 6 of us, we made up some game and played for an hour or two.

I came home at 5:30, Kind of exhausted from playing basketball but feeling satisfied. I checked my phone and saw I’d gotten a text, from Tyler and Scott. Scott  asked if videochatting would be okay around five o’clock, 2 for them. I replied and read Tyler’s text. “Surprise ;) (sorry i couldn’t reply sooner, at Josh’s)” I smiled and put away my phone.  Paige was already online on oovoo, so I ringed her. She picked up soon and seemed extremely excited to talk. About 5 minutes later Olivia and Scott showed up. We talked for about 10 minutes before I broke the news.

“I’m going on a date tomorrow” I said, smiling abundantly.

“Wait…” Paige exclaimed, “like a date-date? Who’s the lucky guy?”

“Yessss, a date-date. A guy from here In Columbus, Tyler Joseph.”

“Oooohh a Columbus-guy, Jen?” Scott asked teasingly, while Olivia was applauding for me. “I love you guys so much” I laughed, “but yeah, no idea what we’re going to do though. I’ll let you guys know.” I popped a meal into the microwave and returned to my laptop. Around 9 I decided I had to go, because I still had to clean up a little and decide what to wear, blah blah, and off course I couldn’t sleep in too late, because I had to try my best to look cute, or at least not as awful as I did ther previous time I saw Tyler. I grabbed the vacuum cleaner, turned on some music and cleaned the living room. When I was done I put the vacuum away and went upstairs. I stood in front of my closet staring at a shirt for like 5 minutes. “What to wear.” I said to myself. “Not too fancy, so jeans.” I looked at the stack of jeans in my closet. Light denim, dark denim, some other colors. “I guess the…” I grabbed a new dark blue skinny and the new skinny I’d bought in town the day I met Tyler. I threw both of them on my bed. I didn’t want to look too dressed up, so I decided to wear a plain shirt. I kind of combined an outfit, and told myself I’d choose the rest tomorrow. I watched some more tv and fell into a deep sleep.
