✔ Game Over ( Josh Dun X Reader )

I Like You

"Josh, what's wrong?" Tyler asked putting his hand on Josh's shoulder.

Josh sat there backstage on a couch breathing heavily with his head in between his hands, his elbows resting on his knees. He was rocking himself back and forth in an attempt to calm his nerves.

"Jim," Tyler called, with Josh's dog quickly coming to soothe his owners nerves as he was trained.

"Y/N is seeing us perform in 14 days," he spat out in a rushed sentence.

"That's great!" Tyler cheered, lightly shaking Josh back and forth at the news.

"N-no," Josh stuttered.

Tyler furrowed his brow in confusion. "What do you mean no? I thought you liked her a lot, and you two would be able to meet for the first time in person. That's an amazing opportunity,"

"Tyler...I...I don't know. What if she finds out I'm me," Josh asked, his anxiety beginning to subdue with the help of Jim by his side.

"What do you mean? You're great, dude!" Tyler cheered, trying to lift his best friends spirit.

"I mean, what if she finds out I'm me? And you're you? That we're Twenty One Pilots and her view changes entirely," he asks, tone uneven as he seems to be on the verge of tears.

"Josh," Tyler breathed. "I can't lie...there's a chance that can happen,"

Josh shuddered upon hearing Tyler's words.

"...but, if she's anything like you've told me she is from the past few months, almost year, of knowing her...I doubt she would care," he replied, rubbing his friends back lightly while giving a small smile.

Josh sighed and lifted his head up from his hands, looking at Tyler.

"She is pretty amazing, huh..." Josh trailed, looking at the carpet and scuffing his shoe lightly against the floor.

"From what she makes herself out to be, and from the conversations and game play I've over heard, she seems like the perfect fit for a guy like you,"

"Thanks, Ty,"

"Are you going to go?" Tyler asked.

"Screw it. Yeah. I'm gonna go." Josh said with a small boost of confidence in his tone.

"That's my boy!" Tyler said with a full smile and laughing in excitement.

"I'm gonna go see Y/N and I'm gonna show who I really am," Josh said standing up and grabbing his drumsticks for when he and Tyler headed out to start performing.

"Heck yeah!" Tyler cheered while jumping.

"This is sick!" Josh yelled.

"SO SICK!"

The two high fived before making their way out of the dressing room and down the hall before reaching the stage to start the show.

Later that night, as per your usual time of around 12pm, you called Josh.

"Hey you," you said with a slight giggle.

"Hi Y/N," Josh said with a smile plastered across his face upon hearing your voice.

"How was your day?" you ask while twirling with a piece of your hair.

"It was good, how was your day?" he asked as he sat down in the tour bus, loading up his computer.

"Can't complain, so what are we gonna play tonight?" you ask as you did the same except in your gaming chair at your desk.

"Fortnite?" he asked.
