Josh Dun imagines

Fall (ing for you)

Josh Dun imagine

"What about this one?" your boyfriend, Josh, asks as he points to a short, plump pumpkin that sits on a vine of the pumpkin patch the two of you were currently perusing.
You walk over to the pumpkin in question and turn it slightly to get a better look at it.
"It's all rotten on one side, we should keep looking," you point out and Josh nods, grabbing your hand and cautiously stepping around pumpkins as you maneuver through the patch.
"See, this is why I need you, because I would've picked that one up and bought it at first glance," Josh says, and you simply let out a small giggle in response.
You walk in a comfortable silence for a few more minutes, the two of your venturing further than the other people browsing the pumpkins. The brisk air is turning your noses a bright shade of red, but the thick sleeves of Josh's sweater and the scarf around your neck were keeping you warm, not to mention that, despite the dropping temperature, his hands were still warm as ever.
"Oh my goodness, that's the one," you exclaim excitedly, pointing to a perfectly round, wonderfully symmetrical pumpkin.
You stop right in front of it once you reach it, realizing, upon closer examination, that it's probably twice as big as anything you can carry. You got a couple steps ahead of Josh in your excitement, so you turn back around to face him, and try to tell him via mind-communication that he should do the gentlemanly thing and come pick up this pumpkin for you.
He seems to get the idea, but simply raises his eyebrows at you, smirking slightly, and gesturing to the pumpkin for you to pick it up.
You turn back around and look at the pumpkin, breaking it off the vine and trying to figure out the best way to lift it up. You get a good grip on the bottom of it, and you get it up into your arms, but one step in and it's already slipping out of your shaky hold.
Josh seems to be getting a real kick out of watching you wrestle with this pumpkin, and you see he's also picked out a pumpkin of his own, a taller, skinnier one that he seems to be holding with no problems.
"Need a hand there, Y/N?" Josh asks, clearly amused.
Your stubbornness takes over.
"Nope, I've got it under control," you say, as the pumpkin starts slipping again.
"Alright, babe, I think I've watched you struggle enough. Let me take it," he says, and he comes over to take the pumpkin out of your hands, but you turn away, prohibiting him from doing so.
"No, I said I've got it," you say, and he can't help but snicker.
"All you're gonna have left by the time we get to the car is pumpkin guts if you try to carry it. Just let me help you. I promise you can smash the patriarchy another day," Josh says, and you reluctantly hand over your prized pumpkin, but you do it with a joking scowl.
"Fine, but only because I don't want to ruin the world's best pumpkin," you say, crossing your arms as the two of you start back toward your car, Josh easily handling both of your pumpkins.
You pay for your pumpkins and secure them in the trunk of your car before hopping into the front seats and driving home.
Once you arrive, you set your pumpkins on your front porch, agreeing that you should wait until closer to Halloween to carve them, so they don't rot too quickly.
Since it's only around 1 in the afternoon, you both agree that you shouldn't just lounge around for the rest of the day, so you decide to go walk around town for a bit and enjoy the weather.
You make the short walk to a little group of shops and restaurants not too far from your place, the leaves crunching under your boots as you walk through the streets hand in hand.
You stop into a coffee shop and get coffees to sip on in an attempt to warm your chilled bodies.
You come across a seasonal Halloween shop and Josh drags you in to look at the costumes.
You both take turns trying on ridiculous wigs, hats, glasses, and anything else under the sun, laughing harder with each added accessory. Josh records to whole ordeal on his snapchat, complete with horse masks and fake cleaver headbands, making the fans go a little nuts.
Josh wanders over to the full costumes section and pulls a sexy nurse outfit off the rack to show you, raising his eyebrows.
"In your dreams, Dun," you roll your eyes and he laughs, putting it back on the rack.
You both exit the shop with a few little accessories for Halloween night, because you simply couldn't resist a good costume.
Eventually, you end up wandering through a little park that connects with the shopping area, and you find a nice bench to sit at under some beautifully colored trees.
The wind cuts through your sweater and sends a shiver down your side, Josh noticing and pulling you into his side, one arm wrapped around you.
"Cold?" he asks.
"Not anymore," you reply and he smiles, softly kissing the top of your head.
You take in the scenery around you and enjoy the smell of the leaves, but Josh can't seem to take his eyes off you, mesmerized by your rosy cheeks and glowing eyes.
Eventually, you get too cold to walk around any longer, so you head home, changing into some sweatpants and another one of Josh's sweaters and cuddling up on the couch for a night of Netflix and hot chocolate.
