I Can't Help Falling In Love With You
After the ceremony, Dallon thought he would have a nervous breakdown. He was terrified on what could happen.
Brendon grabbed his hand. "What are you so nervous about?"
"I guess just being in the new world. I don't know." That was a lie.
"It will be okay. We'll do it together. I already found an apartment down town. Everything will work out."
Dallon quickly kissed him. "I know it will. All right, I have to get the rest of my stuff from my dorm. I'll meet you at the Pavilion for the after party."
"Okay. Remember we have to perform a few songs."
"Oh yeah. I'll see you then."
Dallon rushed to his car and headed over to Tyler's dorm.
"Okay you ready?"
Tyler nodded. "I think the question is are you ready?"
"No... what if something goes wrong? My whole life is based off what happens in the next 20 minutes."
"It will be fine Dal. Me and Josh are the only ones who know."
"You told josh?!"
"Of course I told Josh! He kind of has to help me with the song."
"Yeah, yeah you're right. Okay. Anyone else?"
"Okay so Spencer knows to BUT I promise he didn't say anything! He's helping with the spotlight."
"Spotlight?!"
"We was looking at the lights and if we don't have a little assistance we won't be able to see what's going on. It will be fine."
"And what about when Brendon goes to sing?"
"Josh will unplug his mic and plug my ukulele and connect my mic."
"What are the odds of malfunctions?"
"About a 20% chance."
"Fuck..."
"Dallon, chill. It will be great I promise. Josh is already over there setting up my mic. It will work."
"If you say so. I'm relying on you."
"Jeez no pressure..."
"Exactly."
With that Dallon walked out and headed to the Pavilion.
Brendon was already getting ready on stage. Joe and Andy was helping with guitar and drums since they thought Spencer was sick.
Dallon walked out and grabbed his bass and Brendon took his mic.
"Hey guys, how are you doing tonight?"
The crowd cheered and whistled.
"I'll take that as pretty damn good. We've all been through a lot these few years but we made it. Let's celebrate never coming back here again!"
Dallon looked over to the side stage where Josh quickly unplugged different chords and rearranged them.
Brendon looked over to Dallon. "My mic and amp isn't working?"
Suddenly Tyler's voice took over the pavilion.
"Wise man says
only fools rush in
but I can't help
falling in love
with you..."
He started singing quieter as a small spotlight night Dallon. He took a deep breath as he sat his bass down and walked over to Brendon and grabbed his hands.
"Brendon, we've been dating for a little over a year now. That's not very long, but I'm still certain about this decision. You've been there for me through everything, you've accepted me for who I am. You've made this journey called life amazing. With you I feel safe, I feel welcome. I want to be there for you as much as you have been for me. I want to be able to call you mine years from now."
Dallon let go and got on one knee and pulled a box from his pocket
"So, Brendon Boyd Urie, will you marry me..?"
Brendon stood there dumbfounded.
"I-I can't..."
Everyone got silent. Brendon reached for Dallons hand and he stood up.
"I can't because I wasn't prepared for this. I thought I was going to be the one asking..."
Brendon pulled a similar box from his pocket.
They both started laughing and Dallon pulled him into a hug.
The crowd was going insane.
Tyler finished the song and him,Josh and Spencer joined him on stage.
"I told you it would work!" Tyler yelled throwing his arms around Josh and Spencer's shoulders.
Brendon pulled away from Dallon.
"You guys were in on this?!"
"Hell yeah, we all wanted it to happen so why not help?" Josh laughed.
"Thank you guys so fucking much." Dallon said pulling everyone into a group hug until josh and Tyler moved away.
Tyler grabbed the mic. "Okay enough sentimental stuff, lets party!"
The music started back, everyone celebrating different things.
And that's the story of Brallon.
