The rest of the dinner went by quickly. Multiple times you found yourself unable to breathe because of laughter, not to mention that the food was amazing. Josh's sisters were obviously the best choice to sit with, as they made many comments in addition to the story that made it that much better. You had become much closer with his sisters, and it almost made you sad that you and Josh weren't dating.

Around five, Derek once again took the stage, "I hate to end the fun times that we're having, but it's time that our bride and groom said a few words. Before that, I would just like to thank all of you for sitting through this rehearsal dinner, as I know many of you are excited for your parties tonight. It really means alot to me and my family. Ok, before I get too sappy I'll hand y'all over to Jeremy."

Jeremy stood up and took the mic from his father, "I'll try to keep this short and sweet, but I would like to thank all of my groomsmen for being willing enough to help me through all of this. And of course, I would like to thank Laura and Bill Dun for being kind enough not only to host our wedding, and everything else, in their beautiful barn, but also allowing us to come over every day before then and hang out together. It really means a lot," he smiled before passing off the mic to Nickie.

"I also would like to thank Laura and Bill Dun for allowing us to do everything here and being kind enough to host me, even though we haven't properly met. I would like to thank also my bridesmaids for keeping me sane and maintaining control over everything so I don't go all Bridezilla on everyone. And a huge thank you to the entire Dun family for taking me in and being so kind this past week. It really means a lot to feel welcome to a new family," she smiled and took a seat.

Derek returned to the front of the stage, "Now, I would like all the men to head back to the house for their party, so kiss all your ladies goodnight! It's time for the real men to go party!" he yelled.

All of the men started to head out of the barn. Meanwhile, the women started to push all the tables to the sides of the barn. You noticed Josh making his way through the crowd towards you.

"The guys are going to be partying most of the night, so just call me to let me know when you want to head to bed and I can take you inside. Otherwise, you'll be in for one hell of a time if you try to make it inside," he whispered in your ear.

"Alright, thank you."

He nodded before joining Tyler on their way to the house. You quickly found Josh's sisters and Jenna again.

Nickie suddenly came running over to you. It was the first proper glance you had gotten of her and you had to admit, she was gorgeous. Her ginger hair was loosely curled and pulled back on one side, revealing her bright blue eyes. Light freckles dusted her cheeks and went across her small nose. She seemed the definition of perfect, which made sense if you thought about how attractive most of the Duns were.

"Hi," she smiled brightly. "I'm Nickie, just in case you guys didn't know. I haven't really had a chance to meet everyone yet so I'm trying to get some introductions in before things get too crazy."

"Jenna Black," Jenna smiled, holding out a hand.

"Jenna," Nickie repeated. "And what's your relation to the family?"

"Tyler Joseph's girlfriend, so technically I'm not really family," she smiled.

"Tyler," she said, trying to put a face to name. "Close friends with Josh, right?"

"That's the one," Jenna smiled.

"Got it," she nodded before turning to me. "And you are?"

"Y/F/N Y/L/N. Josh Dun's girlfriend," you smiled, holding out a hand.
