Allen woke up, blinking his eyes, then paused. Why was he in Matt's room? He sat up and looked around not remembering coming in here and by seeing Matt anywhere at all. 'Odd...' he thought to himself. He then felt something in his neck and went to bat it away only to realize it was his hair. 'Wait what?!' His hair wasn't that long, and it wasn't blonde either. He began to panic slightly, what was happening?

Matt woke up and immediately felt that something was wrong. He sat up and looked around, noticing that he wasn't in his room.

Allen started panicking more and somehow managed to end up falling off the bed and landed in the floor with a loud thud.

Hearing the thud, Matt got up and went into his room. "Allen are you-......why are you me?!" Mat asked, slightly panicked.

"Ugh....what?" he grumbled as he sat up and rubbed his sore head. He then froze once he did, "you- wha- How? Huh!???!" He started panicking more.

"Allen calm down." Matt walked over to him.

"You-! Me-?! How?!? What?!??" He found himself unable to form sentences and began hyperventilating somewhat.

Matt sat on the ground and hugged Allen, hoping to calm him down.

That did manage to relax him a bit and his breathing steadied out. "Wh-what's happening?!" he asked as he grabbed into his brother, or was it himself?, and hugged him back reflexively.

"I'm not sure...but I'll figure something out." He tried to reassure his brother.

Allen closed his eyes shut and tried to pretend that none of this was happening.

Matt sat there and hugged Allen, trying to figure out what was happening.

After a pause Allen looked up and asked, "wait.... You were asleep???..."

Matt nodded.

"......what is this? Some kind of twilight zone?..."

"......."

"....I was joking..."

"I know....it's just...odd to hear my voice with a joking tone...."

".......yes it is...." he replied, then smirked, "get used to it."

Matt rolled his eyes and sighed.

Allen chuckled out of habit then paused, "....man it's weird to hear you laugh...."

Matt nodded in agreement.

"......so......how do we reverse this?...."

"...I'm not sure...unless it just wears off..."

"Ugh...."

"........ Do I really sound like that?"

"....uh dude.... I'm in your body... I'm pretty sure I sound exactly like you at the moment..."

"....Ugh."

".....what?"

"Nothing this is just...confusing."

"Oh really? And here I thought it made perfect sense...." he replied sarcastically with a roll of his eyes.

Matt sighed. "Oh ha ha very funny." He said with sarcasm.

"No what's funny is you're stilling hugging me... Er you? Whatever we are...."

Matt immediately lets go of Allen and looks away with his arms crossed.

Allen looked down at his, er Matt's, arm, "......dang you're pale...."

Matt shrugged.

"Ugh....I don't know whether to call myself me or you....."
