All I want (twenty one pilots fanfiction)

Chapter twenty four

After loading my bags into the back of Tyler’s car, which we had picked up before going to Taco Bell, we made our way to the airport. I was getting slightly nervous. After the bunch of texts my Seattle clan had sent me, (“ADSGSDBNDJDN TOMORROW” and “IM SO EXCITED” etc) my nerves had only gotten worse. I was so happy to be able to see everyone again. Before I knew it, Tyler stopped the engine and helped me get my bags out of the car. We both stood next to the car when Tyler locked it. I looked at the building and let out a sigh. “Nervous?” Tyler asked. “Yeah, but excited.” I smiled back. “I feel you,” Tyler chuckled, “I mean, flying is always strange. So uhm, let’s go inside?”

It was almost 8:30, which meant we’d gotten at the airport early. I was planning on checking in around nine, so this left us some time for a cup of coffee. We went to the nearest starbucks (how hipster) and Tyler bought us both a coffee, which, for me basically meant that I probably wasn’t going to get any sleep on the plane. But the coffee was good, the mood was good, and for once, I felt happy. And Tyler seemed happy too, which was good, because I knew we were both struggling with joy and happiness sometimes, so this was very, very nice.

“You’re leaving for LA on Monday, right?” I asked, taking a sip from my coffee. “yeah, you’re so lucky you fly around this time, Josh, Mark and I fly at like, 4 in the morning.” Tyler answered. “so that’s a so that’s a yay for redbull. But luckily we don’t have to do anything the first two days.”

“So what do you have to do the other days?” I asked. “uhm, well, we have some business meetings, and maybe have to record a demo or two. I’m not sure yet, we’ll just have to wait and see, I guess. We won’t be there for long, about ten days. So there won’t be too many possibilities, I guess.” A short silence fell after he said that. “I’m going to miss my family. And you. But I’m also so happy you get to see your family and old friends. Does that even make sense? Or am I just rambling?” he awkwardly chuckled.

“Both.” I said in between laughs. “But that’s okay. I’m so happy too and I’m so excited you get to do all these cool things, but I’m going to miss you too, honestly.” We both sighed softly. “Yeah, I love how we became great friends in a pretty short time.” We threw away our cups and started to make our way to the hall. After leaving starbucks, Tyler continued: “It’s weird. Making friends is pretty hard for me, but for some reason, this friendship feels so good. And I just hope it stays. I’m so thankful I didn’t miss the bus. Gosh, I always miss my bus. But not now. And I’ve never been more happy about that.”

“Well, I’m happy you sat next to me. And I totally agree with all the other things you said.” We were now sitting on a bench in front of my gate, people walking around us, going to places, coming home from places. I wonder what it’ll be like when I come back. Apparently Tyler was staring at the people around  us too, because when I looked at him, he was facing the other way. I got up, slinging my backpack with hand luggage over my shoulder, and setting my suitcase next to me. Tyler looked over and got up too. He awkwardly/nervously/fake chuckled, then pulled me into a hug, which I returned, off course. I dug my face into his collarbone, right above his chest, and for the last time I said “I’m gonna miss you.” He then whispered “I’ll miss you too Jenna.” Into the crown of my head. I looked him into his eyes, and I thought he was pulling back. But instead, he leaned in.

Tyler leaned in.

Tyler leaned in and kissed me.

Tyler and I were kissing.

oh my gosh

His lips were on mine, softly moving, and it was the best feeling ever. His arms slid from my shoulder blades to the small of my back and I think I felt a small tremble in his hands. I wanted to pull him closer, reassure him, but was frozen in my spot. His lips were still chapped, or chapped again, ever since that time he kissed my forehead in the forest. But this – this felt so much more special, so much closer.

Gosh I’m in love with this boy.

And it may not be so hopeless after all, right?

Before it dawned on me that I should probably kiss him back, or at least do something, he dropped his arms from my back, and I did the same. He pulled away, then turned around and walked away.  I wasn’t even sure whether  he was walking fast or slow, all I knew is that he didn’t look back. I was too caught up in …whatever that was. After what felt like 5 seconds, Tyler had disappeared in the sea of all the people at the airport.

I was now standing in front of my gate, by myself. I wasn’t completely sure what just happened, but I think I liked it, I think this was something good. Was it?

Did this mean that Tyler had liked me too? Or was it some weird impulse that people sometimes get, and then later regret? Please let it not be that…

Still more confused than ever, I made my way to the gate and checked in. A bit later I found myself sitting in the boarding hall. I wanted to text Tyler, but decided against it, and just wait until I landed or arrived at my grandparents’ house, or maybe even tomorrow morning since I didn’t have any plans on what texts would be appropriate now. Instead I decided on texting my mom, and to my Seattle-peeps. No one replied, so my brain concluded that I had to sort this out at least a little bit.

I tried to remember the way Tyler walked away from me. He seemed certain of what he’d done, but he also seemed nervous when he was walking. Maybe I was just wishful thinking, but now that I think about it, he had seemed kind of nervous around me the past few days. I blamed it on the excitement of the show, and that must’ve mostly been it, but also after hometown show, he still seemed a little less comfortable with me around. Maybe he had planned it. But then why didn’t he look back? Was he afraid of my reaction?
