Dream of Dreams || Jay ENHYPEN FF

6.

As always I made myself some coffee and got ready for work.

While I was drinking my coffee I couldn't get my mind off the dream I had last night. It felt so real. Being able to go back in time, attend a ball and dance with the king. It's weird how the person I'm staying away from is the person I want to see in my dreams, just a different personality.

"Shit"

I was running late.

When I parked my car, I jumped out, locked the door and speed-walked towards the entrance of the building.

"April" Someone shouted behind me. Oh no, that sounds familiar.

I turned around and saw Jay, the real Jay, make his way towards me.

Before he could say another word I bolted into the building and into my office where he can't get to me.

That was close.

~~~

"You're back already" I lifted my up head up and saw Jay. I looked around and saw that I was laying in the garden where we hung out last time.

"Yeah. I guess."

"C'mon I want to show you around more" He held out a hand to help me up to which I accepted.

Jay showed more of his private garden. There was a large pond filled with koi fishes and other small marine life. There were even turtles. There were small bunnies and kittens roaming around the grass. There were lots of flowers and trees. It was truly beautiful.

"Is that a swing?" I said pointing to a plank of wood with ropes attached to it and the tree branch.

I sat on it and started to swing slowly on it.

I felt someone push my back, I turned to see Jay. I smiled and laugh as I started to go higher and higher.

"I built this when I was young. Living in the castle was lonely and I had no one to talk to"

I continued to swing back and forth as Jay continued to push me. I started to feel sick as I was going really really high.

"Aah ok ok too high, too high!" I was screaming at this point.

The swing was about to go up again but was pulled to a halt when Jay grabbed onto the rope and pulled me to him. I was situated in front of his face.

Nothing. We said absolutely nothing, we just starred at each other. Well, that was before I broke the eye contact.

"Um, thanks" I cleared my throat looking away. I got off the swing and sat on the grass under the tree.

Jay came and sat beside me, before laying down on the grass. We stayed like that for a moment before he pulled me to the grass with him.

Again we made eye contact. But that didn't last long. I don't know but I started giggling. I guess this situation was funny?

Not long after Jay joined me. Both of us were giggling until tears streamed down our faces.

"I haven't laughed like this in years." He said after our little moment.

"What's it like being a king"

"Nothing interesting to be honest. Just fighting and keeping people in place. It's boring"

"Will your knight come attack me if he sees me with you?" Oh my god he could come out of nowhere and chop my head off.

"No you're fine. I told the kingdom that you're safe and I trust you. Plus this is my garden, no one's allowed in here except me. And you."

"April, you haven't told me about yourself" Should I tell him that this isn't real and that he's just my imagination?

"Well, I'm not from here. This all isn't real."

Jay didn't say anything but just laughed.

"Then tell me April, what is this world you're talking about is like."

"Well, instead of horses and carriages we have automatic machinery that doesn't require manpower to take us to places. In my world, we dress differently. Instead of this dress or the clothing you wear, we all wear a shirt. Like the clothing that have a hole for your heads and arms and it goes down to about your stomach."

I don't think he understands a word.

"This world of yours sounds interesting." He simply says.

"What's it like in your world?"

"Well, it's kind of boring. I kind of just exist and do the same things over and over again. People don't even remember me or even my name."

"What about your family?"

"I never got to see them. I don't know who they are"

"I understand"

We both spent the rest of the time talking about my life.

My eyes opened up and I just starred at the roof. It's so weird that I'm basically talking to myself because I'm to someone who's just in my head. Ugh this makes no sense. I mean I guess I have someone to talk to.

And this cycle repeated for three weeks now.

I would come home, have some dinner, sleep and talk to Jay in my dreams while he shows me around his kingdom, wake up and go to work. I see the real Jay waiting outside my workplace but I just go to the back entrance, avoiding him as much as possible. And it worked. I haven't seen him in a week now.

I think things are starting to get better now.

"So any news in YOUR world" Jay asked. I'm not sure if he believes me about my world but that's like the only thing we talk about. I mean if someone came up to me and tell me that they are from a whole different world then I probably think they're crazy, but Jay hasn't said or asked me anything so I think I'm good.

"Well actually yeah. So for a while there's this guy." The real you. "I bumped into him once and left my purse where I bumped into him. He gave me it back the next day but suddenly he knows where I am all the time. So I started to stay away from him but he's aways at my workplace asking to talk to me but I don't feel safe around him so I just ignore him. But he hasn't bothered me in a while I'm so glad."

"Mm. Hey do you want to get something to eat inside?" Jay asked standing up. I nodded and followed him inside the castle. All the workers know about me and just continued working ignoring my presence. But some were nice enough to greet me which warmed my heart.

When we finished eating, we were walking down the hall with lots of doors. I still didn't know where things are, this castle is humongous.

Jay opened the door and I followed him in. Inside was a large room with a bed, table and draws filled with clothing. Everything was very fancy and luxurious.

This was King Jay's bedroom.

Jay sat on his bed looking at me.

"Am I allowed to be in here?" I asked.

Jay didn't answer. His face was dark, a lot different from his normal look. He stood up and starting walking towards me.

"Jay?" I started moving backwards.

Before I could say another word I was shoved back to the wall. Jay's body pressed against mine with his mouth against my ear.

"Are you gonna stop avoiding me?"
