I've been around
"Josh!" his mother called. "I'm coming" he replied. He looked at his alarm clock, 7:48' "I'm going to be late" he thought. "Shit" he said under his breath, hoping no one would hear him curse, even if he was alone He didn't want to be late to school on his first day. He rummaged through the boxes in his room, trying to find a decent shirt and his favorite black skinny jeans. He found the box that held his shirts, he grabbed the first one he saw, a regular navy blue t-shirt, he found his skinny jeans with enough time to eat a quick breakfast. On the way to school he passed multiple kids walking, but he really only noticed one. The boy was wearing the same outfit as him. He looked at his face for only a second and surprisingly the boy made eye contact. Josh quickly looked away. "He's pretty cute" he said, not yet realizing he had said that aloud. "What was that hon?" his mother asked. "What" he replied. "Shit, I need to shut my mouth" he thought. Arriving at school, he managed to find his way to the main office to get his schedule. "Do you need any help getting to your classes?" asked the secretary. "No thank you, I think I can find them on my own" he lied. He had no idea where any of these classrooms were, but he felt silly accepting her help. As he walked into the hallway it was completely deserted, "Great, I'm already late for class" he thought. As he wandered the halls, he regretted not accepting the help offered. "Hey, do you need help", Josh turned around to see the boy from earlier this morning. "Y-yeah, thanks" he stuttered. "No problem, my name's Tyler Joseph" he said, a little too happily. He didn't know why he was so happy to see the boy from this morning. He thought the boy was cute and once he saw him in the halls and confused, he jumped at the opportunity to talk to him. "Josh Dun, nice to meet you", he replied. He was hoping to see the boy, and here he was face to face with him. Following the boy, he was slightly behind him giving him a chance to peek at him. "He has got a great ass" he thought, "Woah, calm down. You hardly know him". "Here we are" Tyler said, a little sad to part with the Josh. "Hey, maybe we can trade numbers, so I can show you around town sometime" "Yeah, that would be great". After exchanging numbers, Josh headed into his first class. After introducing himself he sat down in an empty seat near the window. Not paying attention to the slideshow presentation, all he could think about was the way Tyler smiled at him and just Tyler in general. "Great first day so far" he mumbled. It was going to be an amazing school year, he could almost feel it. Replaying Tyler's smile over and over again in his head, well he couldn't help but smile himself.
