Author's Note: This was requested by @imshookandneedhelp! Sorry about the wait! This is the night mentioned back in the post Vows! To sum it up if you don't feel like reading again: Tyler hops a fence and dodges his own security to meet the reader after seeing her in the crowd!
Your hips swayed to the music as you watched Tyler dart across the stage, singing lyrics in perfect time with the music. One of your friends wrapped their arms around your waist and together the two of you shouted along, not caring how your voices sounded. This was a night that you had been waiting for for months and you were going to make the most of it.
Tyler walked to the front of the stage right as the song was ending. He was looking out over the crowd with the slightest hint of a smile on his face. You wished that you were closer so that you had even the smallest chances of touching him, but one of your friends had caused you to arrive late, leaving you right in the middle of the crowded venue.
As if he could hear your thoughts, Tyler's eyes locked straight onto yours. You grinned at him and his mouth curled up into a slight smirk as he sang, just subtle enough to avoid ruining his stage persona. For a moment you could have sworn that he stumbled over the words, but you brushed it off as you messing up the words yourself since you were so in shock. He turned and walked towards the back of the stage just as the song ended.
One of your friends started to repeatedly smack your arm, "Did you just-did he...?"
You nodded, your eyes still glued to the spot where Tyler had been standing
"You just made eye contact with Tyler Joseph. Like, a lot of it," your other friend chimed in.
"I know," you said, turning to face them. "I can't believe that happened."
Your conversation was quickly ended as the entire venue began to scream. Josh stood up behind his drums as the next song began playing. You and your friends joined in on the cheering, although you were still trying to wrap your head around everything that had just happened.
"Ok, am I crazy or did Tyler keep looking at me throughout the show?" you asked as everyone began to file out of the tiny venue.
The rest of the show had been absolutely amazing. Your cheeks hurt from smiling and your throat was already beginning to feel sore from screaming lyrics all night. It was, by far, one of the best concerts that you had ever been to in your life.
"He definitely did," your friend answered.
"Yeah, it was like whenever he had a chance he would sneak a look at you."
You bit down on your lip, "I shouldn't be so giddy. It's not like it meant anything."
"I don't know, after all that eye contact I think you two are going to get married," one of your friends said, reaching over to poke you in the side.
"No way," you rolled your eyes. "He's a musician and I'd be surprised if that isn't something he does every night. I'm just going to be happy about the fact that tonight, that was me."
The night air was cold as you made your way out of the venue. You wrapped your jacket tighter around you as you made your way down the sidewalk. Since you had arrived later than anticipated, you had to park far away from the venue. The walk to the car wasn't going to be fun.
The three of you rounded the corner and made your way along the side of the venue. You were all cracking up at a joke that your friend had made, which apparently attracted more attention than you had expected.
"Hey!"
You stopped moving and began to look around for the source of the noise. It had sounded close by, but now that you were looking around you didn't see anything. Just as you were about to start walking again, you spotted a figure running towards you. There was a fence separating the two of you, and at this point you were beginning to think that was a good thing.
As he got closer, you recognized the tattoos on his forearms. Your heartbeat began to speed up and one of your friends reached over to grip your wrist; they were obviously having the same thoughts as you. The three of you stood frozen in place as you watched him begin to scale the fence.
Security came running after him by the time that he was halfway up the fence. They were yelling at him to get down because it was a safety hazard, but Tyler was on a mission. He paid zero attention to security as he threw a leg over the top of the fence and began to make his way back down. You had no idea what was going on, but you found yourself unable to take your eyes off of whatever was going on.
Tyler landed gracefully on the pavement a few feet in front of you. A group of exasperated security guards were on the other side of the fence, still yelling at Tyler. You expected him to keep running, but he only moved so that he was standing across from you. Your friend's grip on your wrist had tightened tremendously, but there was so much adrenaline going through you that you barely even noticed.
Tyler was maybe a foot or two away from you, so close that you could touch him. His eyes were looking straight into yours, but he wasn't saying anything. You were pretty sure you wouldn't be able to say anything even if you wanted to, your throat felt like it had swelled closed. Your friends weren't really being much help either, they were just as shocked as you were.
"Sorry," he finally smiled after a brief moment of struggling to form words.
"For what?" you somehow managed to say, eyebrows knit tightly together.
He reached up and rubbed the back of his head, "I don't know, if I scared you, I guess. I kind of yelled at you, ran after you, and then climbed a fence to get to you."
You bit on the corner of your lip, "And why did you do all of that, exactly?"
He smiled one of the most adorable smiles that you had ever seen. His eyes moved to the ground for a moment before they came back up to meet yours, "This is going to sound really dorky."
"You're Tyler Joseph, how dorky could it be?"
He reached over and rubbed his shoulder, "Well, I saw you during the show and I thought you were really pretty. I was afraid I wouldn't get a chance to see you, but then you happened to walk by and I wanted to grab your attention before you were gone forever."
"You wanted to meet me?" you asked.
"Yeah," he grinned.
"Um, well," you said, feeling around your pockets for your phone as you grew increasingly flustered, "Let me give you my number."
Right as you finished giving Tyler your number, two security guards came walking up behind him. He looked over his shoulder and the smile on his face immediately disappeared.
"Tyler, you know you aren't supposed to leave the venue without security accompanying you."
"I know," he sighed. "But it was important."
"It doesn't matter if it's important. We need to get you back inside."
"And we're going to have a nice long discussion about why you aren't going to do that again."
Tyler started to walk off with the security guards, but not without shooting you a wink and mouthing, "Worth it."
Once he was out of earshot, your friends turned to you and immediately began to shake you around.
"Can you believe that happened?" one of them grinned.
"You just gave Tyler Joseph your number! You might start talking!"
"And he said you were pretty!"
"I know," you grinned, motioning for them to quiet down. "Am I dreaming?"
One of your friends pinched your arm, causing you to squeal.
"Definitely not dreaming," you giggled.
They linked their arms with yours and began to parade you down the sidewalk, all while you smiled like an idiot. Just when you thought the night couldn't get any better, Tyler Joseph shows up and says that he needed to meet you after seeing you in the crowd. It felt like something out of a movie.
Maybe your friend was right: you could end up marrying Tyler Joseph.
