An understanding dude

'Jordan Dun, get your ass over here and slap me!'

As soon as a loud scream was heard, the younger Dun brother got off the couch with a really confused look on his face. He opened the door to Josh's room, his eyebrow raised as he stared at his sibling. 'What exactly did you want me to do?' He asked quietly, his voice barely audible in the room.

'Slap me, please. I need to know I'm not dreaming. Or maybe- wait, is it possible that it's a- a fake account? Or a scam?'

Jordan's confusion only grew at the other's rambling, 'What the fuck are you even talking about, man? I was napping! This better not be some stupid joke-'

'Jordan, shut your mouth and tell me if this is Tyler Joseph's original, official profile or not' the red-haired man went over to his brother and showed him his favorite vocalist's twitter account.

Jordan scrolled through it and after a few seconds he looked up and frowned, 'Yeah?'

'Oh my GOD! Are you sure?' Josh exclaimed happily, making his still a bit sleepy brother wince.

'Pretty fucking sure. Why?' He mumbled, sighing.

'FUCK YEAH!'

'Dude, stop with the yelling. My head can't handle that' he groaned.

'Sorry' Josh blushed a bit and opened the messages section.

'So... Why exactly did you order me to get my ass here if you perfectly know that it is indeed Tyler's account?' Jordan frowned, 'We both are, like, his biggest fans. I know he posted a tweet two days ago, no need to wake me up because of that'.

'You once woke me up at 4 am just to tell me that the tickets are on sale' Josh rolled his eyes and looked up from his phone to give the other man a not-so-friendly look.

'Shut up, if not for me you wouldn't have seen him live then' Jordan snorted and Josh punched his shoulder playfully. 'So? What is this about?'

'Read' the drummer hummed, giving Jordan his phone.

"tylerrjoseph: hey man. found your channel yesterday and I think you're pretty cool. if you wanna take part in the last show of this leg of tour, maybe we could come up with something? I was thinking a short song of mine, you on the drums? let me know if you're down"

Jordan's jaw dropped, 'No way...' he whispered.

'What do I say?' Josh muttered out, hiding his face in his hands.

'Agree, goddamnit! This is all you've ever wanted! Plus, you're gonna meet your lifelong crush!' Jordan gave him the phone back. 'Agree right now!'

Josh gulped and looked down at the phone. Tyler was active. Anything Josh would send him would be seen. Immediately.

Suddenly he saw three dots at the bottom of the screen. 'Shit! Jordan! He's typing again!' Josh hissed, his brother immediately staring down at the phone. The dots disappeared after a moment.

'Maybe he changed his mind about this..?' Josh bit the inside of his cheek.

'You'll never know if you don't-'

'He's typing again!' Josh cut him off, biting down on his lip even harder and deeper than before.

The dots disappeared. A new text message showed up.

"tylerrjoseph: even if you don't want to perform (I know it can be hard to make such a hard decision so quickly) you're still welcome to come backstage. have your ID with you and show it to the security guards if anyone stops you. they know Joshua William Dun is welcome at backstage the whole day. Let me know what you decide"

'Fuck, shit, dick- Ugh!' Josh jumps up a few times and sat down on the bed quickly. 'What do I say now?'

Jordan sighed and smiled widely. 'If you feel like performing on stage with Tyler Joseph is what you want to do tomorrow then agree. And if you feel like you can't do it, just say you'll come backstage to meet him. He appears to be an understanding dude. I think I like him even more than before' he laughed.

Josh couldn't help but grin at his brother. 'Thanks, J...'

'Anytime... Just don't fuck this up' the younger hummed sassily, leaving the room. 'You go, girl! Get yo man!'

Josh snorted, 'Fuck you!'

'Pretty sure that's incest!'

'JORDAN!'

joshuadun: hey man, sorry for late response but I still can't believe it's actually you.

joshuadun: I'd love to play with you tomorrow night, if the offer's still up.

tylerrjoseph: hell yeah it is! I was thinking Stressed Out? You okay with that?

joshuadun: Sure! Sounds lovely.

tylerrjoseph: email Mark for further information ;)

joshuadun: will do!

tylerrjoseph: see you tomorrow then, Josh

joshuadun: see you

'Did Tyler Joseph just send me a winky face?'

'Yes indeed, bro'

'Please, don't ever call me that'
