"Good morning," you called cheerily as you walked into the studio.

"Morning," your producer smiled at you.

"I brought drinks for everyone," you said, setting the drink carrier down on the table in front of you. The small crew descended upon it and grabbed their respective drinks, thanking you as they did so.

"Alright," your producer said, clearing his throat. "What song are we working on today?"

"Well, I actually had something to talk to you about," you smiled sweetly, knowing that he wouldn't like where this was going.

He sighed, "Hit me with it."

"I was listening to Twenty One Pilots last night, and I was absolutely blown away by Josh Dun's talent. I want to try and get him to do drums on one of my singles."

"Y/N, are you crazy? Your career is just starting and you're extremely lucky that your last EP blew up the way it did. Are you really trying to collaborate with half of one of the biggest bands on the music scene?"

"Please? It's worth a shot," you said.

Your producer shook his head, "I will try, but I'm not promising anything."

"Thank you so much," you said, pulling him into a hug.

"Yeah, yeah. You're lucky that I want to see you succeed. Now get in there, we have vocals to record."

It had been a few weeks since you had talked to your producer about getting Josh Dun to drum for your next single. He had been silent on the subject, not even confirming whether or not he was able to contact his agent. You assumed that it had been a lost cause and he just didn't want to let you down, but a small part of you was holding out hope.

You grabbed the drink carrier from your passenger seat and headed inside the studio. Your mind was so focused on running over lyrics and melodies that you almost didn't notice the man standing just inside. You stopped dead in your tracks, looking up at the tall figure.

"Hey, you must be Y/N," he smiled.

You looked between him and your producer, as if to confirm that he was actually there and going to presumably help with your song.

"Josh Dun," you smiled. "Sorry I don't have any coffee for you, I didn't realize you would be here."

"No worries, I have my own," he said, holding up his own drink.

You smiled and tried to ignore the nerves. Sure, you had been the one who asked to work with him, but he was still so talented that you didn't know how you would compare. Not to mention that he was much more attractive in person.

"In other news," your producer smiled. "The first location for the music video didn't work out, but it sounds like we were able to secure the second one."

You nodded, "Ok, that's fine."

"And in addition to that, Josh here said he would be happy to be in the music video."

You spun around to face Josh, who you had otherwise been avoiding eye contact with since your first introduction, "You would really do that?"

He smiled, "Of course. I really like your music, and your last music video was amazing."
