This is a story based in real life. I had been writing fiction novels for my umaginary characters. But for this short novel let me tell you MY OWN STORY.
It was my 2nd year in University when I fell madly in love with someone I shouldn't have fell for. We were friends really good friends since freshmen year. They say that feelings develop when you cross personal spaces, and that's exactly what happened. During freshmen year we were a gang of four boys me, Jas, Jules and V (shortened names). Our class wasn't really that big coz of our major. We are taking bachelor's degree in Theology, shocking as it may sound but we are planning to become ministers of God, pastors to evangelical Christians. There were only 25 incoming freshmen that year and we are the four dudes who happened to have similar ages and speak thesame dialect (Ilokano). We bonded quickly and started hanging out together. We all live in thesame dorm and when you stay in thesame dorm we always have similar schedules of classes and meals. We do our reserch papers together, sermon worksheets, greek studies and so on. We actually helped each other get girlfriends during our freshmen year. We ended up having our own girlfriends by second semester. My girlfriend and V's girlfriend were actually best friends and roomies, so out of the four we bonded the most. We always have double dates every weekends and I can still remember how we both went shopping for christmas gifts. monthsary gifts and valentines gifts. That time I only see him as my best friend nothing else. Honestly, I never imagined myself falling for him, thou all my life I am attracted to men as well. How about my girlfriend? Well, I do like her a lot and don't get me wrong over time I really developed feelings for her. I wasn't confused about my sexuality coz I know that time I like both genders. I and my girlfriend broke up eventually not because of V, but because of her demanding time that I can't really give. I was so busy with studies and unlike the other boys at freshmen I was chosen to be part of the Uni's promotion team so I needed to travel a lot and other responsibilities I have with my youth group. So, we decided to break up before the end of my freshman year. Towards the beggining of sophomore year V and I decided to be roomies with an incoming freshman, the dorm rules only allows two upper classmen together with an incoming freshman in the room. But the freshman didn't last long, he was such a pain in the ass that he repeatedly violated dorm curfews and rules. He was kicked out in two months time. I was left with V in the room while Jas and Jule share the next door room with another freshman. Sounds like TharnType? That's exactly why I connected with that series. Even the rooms looks thesame, with bathroom and toilet. My Uni is in Baguio and it was founded by American missionaries so the dorm rooms were built to have bathrooms and toilets. We decided to remove the other bunk bed in the room, V took the upper bunk bed and I was in the lower bunk bed. But V hates climbing up every night so he started squeezing with me in my bed. It was a single bed and you can't imagine how intimate our positions are every night, luckily Baguio has extreme cold temperature at night so we needed the body heat from each other. At first i didnt mind but again when we started to invade personal space that's when I started to feel differently towards him. He cuddled me everynight and we share one blanket. I'm not and early riser but V was. He always had early breakfast with his girlfriend Em. Em was a real friend to me and I never held any hatred towards her. Everytime I woke up V had prepared coffee and bread for me and he always plays the guitar in the room. Like everyday he does this. We go to class together and practically do everything together except when he was with Em. Em was a senior student and was quite busy with her classes. The sting in my heart started towards the end of 1st semester when he always needed to wait for Em to finish her papers late at night. I was like the kept woman waiting for him to come back in our room. That's when I started to get jealous not with Em but with what they have. Reality striked me that at the end of the day I was just a friend to him and a roommate.
