Word Count: 1856

The rest of the dinner went by quickly. Multiple times you found yourself unable to breathe because of laughter, not to mention that the food was amazing. Josh's sisters were obviously the best choice to sit with, as they made many comments in addition to the story that made it that much better. You had become much closer with his sisters, and it almost made you sad that you and Josh weren't dating.

Around five, Derek once again took the stage, "I hate to end the fun times that we're having, but it's time that our bride and groom said a few words. Before that, I would just like to thank all of you for sitting through this rehearsal dinner, as I know many of you are excited for your parties tonight. It really means alot to me and my family. Ok, before I get too sappy I'll hand y'all over to Jeremy."

Jeremy stood up and took the mic from his father, "I'll try to keep this short and sweet, but I would like to thank all of my groomsmen for being willing enough to help me through all of this. And of course, I would like to thank Laura and Bill Dun for being kind enough not only to host our wedding, and everything else, in their beautiful barn, but also allowing us to come over every day before then and hang out together. It really means a lot," he smiled before passing off the mic to Nickie.

"I also would like to thank Laura and Bill Dun for allowing us to do everything here and being kind enough to host me, even though we haven't properly met. I would like to thank also my bridesmaids for keeping me sane and maintaining control over everything so I don't go all Bridezilla on everyone. And a huge thank you to the entire Dun family for taking me in and being so kind this past week. It really means a lot to feel welcome to a new family," she smiled and took a seat.

Derek returned to the front of the stage, "Now, I would like all the men to head back to the house for their party, so kiss all your ladies goodnight! It's time for the real men to go party!" he yelled.

All of the men started to head out of the barn. Meanwhile, the women started to push all the tables to the sides of the barn. You noticed Josh making his way through the crowd towards you.

"The guys are going to be partying most of the night, so just call me to let me know when you want to head to bed and I can take you inside. Otherwise, you'll be in for one hell of a time if you try to make it inside," he whispered in your ear.

"Alright, thank you."

He nodded before joining Tyler on their way to the house. You quickly found Josh's sisters and Jenna again.

Nickie suddenly came running over to you. It was the first proper glance you had gotten of her and you had to admit, she was gorgeous. Her ginger hair was loosely curled and pulled back on one side, revealing her bright blue eyes. Light freckles dusted her cheeks and went across her small nose. She seemed the definition of perfect, which made sense if you thought about how attractive most of the Duns were.

"Hi," she smiled brightly. "I'm Nickie, just in case you guys didn't know. I haven't really had a chance to meet everyone yet so I'm trying to get some introductions in before things get too crazy."

"Jenna Black," Jenna smiled, holding out a hand.

"Jenna," Nickie repeated. "And what's your relation to the family?"

"Tyler Joseph's girlfriend, so technically I'm not really family," she smiled.

"Tyler," she said, trying to put a face to name. "Close friends with Josh, right?"

"That's the one," Jenna smiled.

"Got it," she nodded before turning to me. "And you are?"

"Y/F/N Y/L/N. Josh Dun's girlfriend," you smiled, holding out a hand.

"Y/N," she repeated.

Finally, she turned to Josh's sisters.

"Oh! We've met before! Let's see...Abigail and Ashley?" she asked, pointing to each of them respectively.

They each nodded.

"Yes," she cheered. "Well, nice meeting you four!" she said before quickly dashing off.

"She seems nice," Jenna said. "It's cool that she is making an effort to meet everyone."

Music started to play from a large speaker. Girls started to move towards the center of the barn to dance.

"You guys want to dance?" Ashley asked.

You shrugged, "I'm not really much of a dancer."

"Oh, come on. This is your one chance to dance when Josh isn't around."

You shrugged again. Oddly enough, Tyler and Josh were some of the only people you would be willing to dance around.

"Fine, I'll make you dance then," she smiled, taking hold of your wrist and dragging you to the dance floor.

You made your way to the center of the floor with all the other girls. Together, the four of you began to bounce around in time to the music.

Eventually, people started to get tired of dancing. It wasn't until someone yelled, 'Shots!' that people once again began to get excited.

"What do you guys want?" Ashley asked, turning to the rest of you while she poured herself a drink.

"Lemon vodka, for me," Jenna answered.

"I don't drink," you shrugged.

"C'mon, Y/N. Where's your sense of adventure?" Abigail said.

"I don't handle liquor well, and I'd really rather not be majorly hungover in front of the family tomorrow. I'll watch over you two and make sure you don't do anything stupid," you explained.

"Fair enough," Ashley said as she handed Jenna and Abigail their drinks. "On three?" she asked.

They nodded.

"1...2...3...," Ashley counted before throwing down her drink.

Their faces scrunched up as the burning alcohol raced down their throats. Around them, the rest of the girls were doing the same thing.

The same pattern continued for the rest of the night. Girls continually alternated between taking shots and dancing, some of them even attempting to do it at the same time. Jenna stopped before she got too hammered, although she was having some troubles walking in her heels. Ashley and Abigail weren't quite as smart and were slurring their words by nine. At eleven, you and Jenna figured it was finally time to call it a night, so you called Josh.

"Hello?" Josh slurred on the other end of the line.

You sighed, you should have known that he was going to get just as hammered as the girls.

"Josh, it's Y/N."

"Y/N!" he called. "How is my girlfriend doing?"

"Listen, Josh, I need to come inside now with Jenna."

"Alright! Come on in!"

You sighed, knowing it was no use. Hoping Tyler was in a better state, you called him instead.

"Hello?" Tyler answered, his words coming out fine.

"You aren't drunk?"

"Nope. Only had a couple beers."

"Perfect. Anyway, Josh said it would be a bad idea to just come walking into the house, so can you come out on the porch and get me and Jenna? We're ready to head to bed."

"Well, Josh was right about not coming in alone. With the state these guys are in, that's probably a good idea. I'll meet you on the porch."

"Thanks, Ty."

"No problem."

You hung up and stuck your phone back into your pocket. Before you left, you figured it was best to let Ashley and Abigail know where you were going. You managed to find them dancing.

"Hey, guys, Jenna and I are heading out now."

"Ok," Ashley giggled. "See you tomorrow morning."She was definitely a happy drunk.

You and Jenna walked out of the barn into the night air. It felt nice after being stuck in the barn with tons of sweaty girls who were grinding on one another. Jenna stumbled a bit, but she wasn't a problem.

"That was one hell of a party," she stated.

"Tell me about it. You should have heard Josh on the phone, sounds like the guys were the same way."

"Tyler was ok though?"

"Yeah. He said he only had a few beers, probably watching over Josh to make sure he didn't slip up. Plus, he has to drive you two home."

Jenna nodded. On the porch, Tyler's outline was visible against the light from the window.

"How was your party?" he asked once we were in earshot.

"Our lips are sealed," you answered with a smirk.

"Good then?"

"Sealed, Tyler!" you reiterated.

He laughed and shook his head. Inside, you could already hear the chanting and yelling of the guys.

"They're mostly in the kitchen, so we can hopefully sneak past them without them causing a problem."

Tyler opened the door and you quickly stepped inside. The house was considerably warmer than the barn had been.

"Hey, Tyler! Did you bring us some girls?" one of the guys called.

"Not those ones, Carl! That's Joshy's girlfriend," another one answered.

"She's just heading to bed," Tyler said. "So all of you can leave her alone."

"Woah there, Tyler! No need to get feisty!"

Tyler shook his head, "You're going to want to lock your door. These guys gets crazy when they're drunk," Tyler said as we climbed the stairs.

"Speaking of which, do you mind sending Josh up here? I think he's had plenty to drink already," you said.

"Yeah, no problem. I was thinking of sending him up here, anyway."

"Thanks."

"Goodnight, Y/N," Jenna smiled at me.

"Goodnight, guys. Drive safe," you smiled before disappearing into Josh's room.

It was nice to finally be away from people again. As much as you loved the Dun family, being around them all day got to be quite tiring. You kicked off your boots and flopped down on the bed with a sigh. A bed had never felt so comfortable before.

A few minutes later, the door creaked open and shut again. You sat up and twisted to face the door, just to make sure it wasn't one of the drunk guys. Much to your relief, it was just Josh.

"Tyler said you wanted me up here," he slurred.

"Yeah, because you should be heading to bed," you stated plainly, getting up from the bed.

He shrugged, "I'm not tired."

You rolled your eyes, "I don't care," you said as you gathered up your pajamas.

He looked almost offended by your comment, "Fine."

You walked into the bathroom and got ready for bed as quickly as possible. Watching over the girls had distracted you from how tired you really were.

When you emerged from the bathroom, Josh was already in bed fast asleep. Somehow he had managed to get into his pajamas without falling over, although he had neglected to put his dirty clothes anywhere. You shrugged it off and flicked off the light before climbing into bed. Falling asleep was much easier that night than it had been the night prior.
