Wake It Right

The Apartment

Johnny's POV

Now I woke up again in the same room but with Jacob sleeping next to me. Today is supposed to be the day where I first met this guy when I was still in the normal world. I know that no matter how I think about getting back, nothing makes sense; it's just so surreal why and how does this happen. Jacob says that his boyfriend Johnny (which is currently me) had an amnesia, so I guess I don't need to pretend and just be myself. Does this mean I have to live the life of this Johnny I am currently living with? Will this stay forever? And also, this Jacob seems so in love with the real Johnny, I guess I'll be hurting this man since I can't bring the Johnny he had feelings with. Ugh! This is troublesome, but I guess I'll just have to live with it, this man Jacob seems pretty nice and I don't know why I feel so comfortable with his affection, I'm not even a homosexual.

"Hun, you're awake?" Jacob asked.

Fuck! I didn't even realize I was staring too hard at him when I was lost in my thoughts. But gracious man! His face is perfect. The jawline, the nose, the eyes and he smells so nice. Am I really straight? Why would I admire him when we're both men? And now that I think about it, this position is awkward. He's hugging me tightly and I'm just looking up at his face.

"Uhm, will you let me go now? It's kinda hot and I'm hardly breathing." Even though the room is cold, I just said it 'cause I can't handle this position.

"Oh sorry! By the way, good morning. My class is on the afternoon today so I have time to accompany you the whole morning. Do you want to go shopping?" Jacob asked.

"What year are you now and what course did you take? How about me? Did I go to college too?" I asked 'cause I suddenly got curious.

"I'm third year and we both took up culinary arts, supposed to be we're classmates now but since the accident happen, your parents suggested that you stop for school until you remember anything or when you're willing to continue." Jacob explained.

So this Johnny and I have the same interest in culinary huh. As I have seen on the pictures, we had the same parents but the only thing has changed is that the Johnny here took up my dream course and I had a relationship with this Jacob. There are two possible answers of what is going on: either this is a counterpart of myself from a parallel universe or this is all just a never ending dream when I died during the night this Jacob punched me. AACCKKK!!! This is making me crazy.

"Hun, you okay? You're spacing out again. Stop overthinking things Hun and don't pressure yourself from remembering things, alright? Hmmm. I know how to start your day happy, I'll make you your favourite 'Quintessential grilled cheese sandwich made by Mr. Jacob especially to Mr. Johnny', and you know it'll be a hundred times better than the one you eat across the apartment." Jacob cheerfully said.

Did he just say "across the apartment"? I automatically got up and opened the window to check if the convenience store was the same as mine in my normal world. And it is the same as I had across my apartment. I also looked out to the street and landmarks and it's the same as mine too. Does this mean that this apartment is still the one I had in mine? hmm. This floor seems to be on the 3rd floor while mine is on the 2nd floor, that is why yesterday when I first woke up in this room, it seems familiar and that the interiors were just slightly changed.

"Jacob, while you're making breakfast, is it alright if I go outside for a while? I just have to check something." I'll have to check on the 2nd floor if who is occupying in my room in this world.

"sure Hun, just be careful and come back here a little sooner" Jacob replied.

Maybe I could find clues and ideas if I get to see the outside of this apartment too. But first, I need to go to the 2nd floor; and when I arrived, I knocked the door to see what's coming next.

"ding dong" I clicked the doorbell and knocked. "knock knock"

It seems like someone is getting the door. Why do I feel so uneasy?! The door opened and it shocked me to see who the person is in front of me. It's Spencer. This man is my best friend since first year in the normal world. Why? Why is he in my room? Are you here looking for me Spence? I'm just here, I did not disappear T_T

"Good morning! What can I help you?" said Spencer.

Why is he so chill? Did he not miss me? What is going on? Just whyyyyy?

"I'm Johnny, do you remember me?" I asked.

"Johnny who? I don't know anyone named Johnny and please excuse me, I'm gonna be late for my Ortho class. Maybe see you later. By the way, I'm Spencer, you can call me Spence." Spencer hurriedly said and proceeded to go on the way to the University.

I don't understand anymore. Spencer seems to be the same as the one I know in my current normal world. He seems to be on the physical therapy department too. But why am I a stranger to him? I miss him so much, I wanna hug my best friend, I want him to comfort me that everything will be back to normal. But no matter how hard I think, this world seems to be the same as mine. The people, the place, only me isn't the normal one here. I got outside the building and stared at the convenience store across, the regular employees were the same. Haaahh! I need to get back to Jacob first, I'm sure he'll worry when I disappear for too long. I got back up to the third floor where Jacob's room is and as I opened the door I saw him looking so fine with his apron on.

"Hun, good timing I just finished preparing the table, now sit. I think you're already hungry from the little adventure you had a while ago. How was it? How was outside? Sure you breathed some fresh air huh. It's still 8 in the morning, we still have lots of time to go to the mall." Jacob happily said.

I just nodded and started to eat what he prepared. Damn these foods are delicious. I've never had this sandwich before and I think it's the best one I had my entire life. He said that his sandwich was Johnny's favourite while mine is the one across the street, but I remembered he said last night that the other Johnny likes the sandwich in the convenience store too. Well anyway, Jacob's right, the one he made just now is a hundred times better. If I never got the chance to live here, I would never have had the chance to eat this heavenly creation.

"Uhm, Jacob? May I asked if when did we start sharing this room apartment?" I suddenly asked.

"Hmmm. When you said yes to me a week after, we decided to live together in this room. your room before was on the 2nd floor below in this room." Jacob replied.

So Spencer's room now which is my room in the normal world were the same as Johnny's room before he moved here to Jacob. Hmmm. Maybe this would give me an idea about the situation. Jacob said that August last year where he and Johnny got on an accident was their third anniversary. And last year was the first semester of third year, so Johnny and Jacob met way before the college began. I'm so damn confused of what is going on anymore. This is getting more complicated as I think it through.

"Hun, finish your food so that we'll have more time outside before my class starts at 1." Jacob said.

"Also, I invited Nikko, your bestie 'cause he said he missed you to death." He added.

Who the hell is Nikko? And I only know Spencer as my bestie dude.

"ding dong" the doorbell rang. "it's Nikko mennnn" Nikko said behind the door.

Jacob opened the doorand I can't believe who I am seeing.
