Benji's pov

We're sitting in the car, at a red light. Only 10 minutes away from the location of our first appointment. The only thing going through my mind is how excited I am to live wit jorge. To be able to wake up to his beautiful face every morning. To be able to kiss him where ever in whatever room I want without disturbing my family, and to be able to raise a family with him.

We make our appointment about 15 minutes early which is good. We sign in, and wait for our names to be called.

"Benjamin Krol and Jorge Garay?" I man says as he steps around a corner. We both stand with anticipation. "Follow me," he says to us with a smile.

I grab jey's hand and we walk over to the man. He takes us up an elevator to the 5th floor, and down to apartment 503. The man unlocks the door and has us follow him through the doors. It's actually a pretty big place, and for such a good price.

We look through the living room first, as that's where the door immediately leads. It's staged with a nice gray sectional that fits perfectly in the space. There's even enough room for a decently-sized coffee table. Then there's a huge tv mounted to the wall that separates the current room from the kitchen.

The kitchen has dark cabinets, maybe a little bit too dark, but a nice island in the middle. But the only thing is that there isn't much room for a big dining room table, which is kinda an issue, but we could always make it work. The island does have a place for seats.

We then move onto the first bathroom. It's a full, and has a huge shower. But that's all that it really has to it. The master bath is pretty much the same. Just with a jet tub instead of shower.

The guest bedroom is a little bit on the smaller side but it will do as the master makes up for it. It's huge. Like the size of benji and my room added to each other. We honestly might not have enough stuff to decorate the room. And there's a nice balcony overlooking the area.

We both agreed that we liked the place, but the area wasn't the best in the world. It was a little far from the city, which wasn't idea since jeyjey and I love to go on midnight walks through the city, which would make it harder, but there's always the next apartment to look into, it's actually right in the middle of the city which is one of the main reasons we chose it.

We continued discussing with the agent about price and other things like that. Well I say we but it was mostly me, but that's perfectly okay. I kinda assumed it would go that way because of jey's social anxiety.

We ended up leaving and going to the next place a little earlier than expected, but maybe then we could get started earlier. And it looks like that went as planned since we got called to the tour at 1:30 instead of 2:00.

The whole building was actually similar to the first one. We went to the elevator, but this time only going to the 4th floor, and to room 428 instead. It was actually one of the last rooms in the hall.

When we stepped inside, I automatically liked it so much more. It felt more like a home. I looked at jorge and the look in his eyes told me he felt the same way. The living room was a similar size, but was decorated with lighter colors. The whole place was, just lighter. It felt happier.

The living room layout was actually very similar to the first, this one only had a couch and chair instead of sectional. But it also had an ottoman. It too had a nice tv mounted to the wall, above a fire place.

This place was also more open as in led straight into the kitchen. The cabinets were much lighter and it also had an island, but a smaller one which left us room for a large dining table. I smile at imagining the two of us, with our kids, sitting at the table eating a nice dinner.

We then make our ways to the bedrooms. This one also had two bedrooms, but only 1.5 bathrooms as the master didn't have a shower in it, but that's okay. The guest bedroom was a much better size bigger, while the same went for the master only it was smaller, which in my opinion was a good thing.

There was huge glass doors on the right wall that led out to a huge balcony over looking an actual city. It was beautiful during the day which only makes me imagine what it would look like at night.

The one and only downside about this apartment is that it was at the very top of our price range, but it was still affordable, and actually cheep for how nice it is. We once again talk to the agent about pricing and he even agreed on taking down the rent. I give jey a sweet smile.

I know this is the place. This is our home.
