Friends With Your Ghost (corpskkuno)

=6=

Help please
I have 2 ideas on how to end this fic but I don't know which to use. If by any chance can you just tell me 1 or 2? I'm not good at decision making.

Anyways here's the actual chapter:

Again the light shown dimly into Sykkuno's room, occasionally getting brighter as clouds moved in front of the sun.

Sykkuno could hear cars driving by and a few birds chirping near his window.

He could also hear something that sounded like humming but also blended into the noise of his AC. It sounded like a song but, he couldn't quite figure out what it was.

"Corpse?"

"Sy?"
"Good morning." Sykkuno greeted as a smile crept across his face.

"Good morning!" Corpse laughed in response.

"Were you humming?"
"Uh yeah?"

"What were you humming?" Sykkuno asked as he sat up on his bed.

" 'Space Song', why?"
"Oh I don't know, it sounded nice." He looked at his phone to see what he had scheduled today.

"Oh..."

"What? What is it?"
"I have a therapy session today."

"Just don't go." Sykkuno felt a hand on his shoulder as he put his phone down.

"I can't just not go!"
"Why not?" Corpse asked laughing.

"I-... I don't know!" He replied, finally standing up and getting out of bed.

"Okay then, why are you gonna go if your worried about it?"

"Well, I get worried every time I go."
"Okay, how about I try and cheer you up then?"

"How are you going to do that?" Sykkuno asked smiling slightly as he walked to his closet.

"Uhh, I'll narrate what your doing?" Sykkuno could hear it in his voice that Corpse was already smiling.

"Sure...?" He responded questioningly while he opened his closet.

Sykkuno pushed through his shirts and found one he liked.

"Sykkuno picked out a shirt." He laughed a little as Corpse spoke.

Sykkuno set the shirt on his bed along with his other clothes which Corpse narrated him picking out.

"Sykkuno is getting dressed as a ghost watches him." Corpse was doing his best to hold in a laugh.

"Corpse!" Sykkuno scolded as he felt his face go hot, he could hear it as Corpse burst out laughing.

"C'mon it was funny!"
"You'd successfully cheered me up before you said that!" Sykkuno said also laughing.

"I know how to, re-cheer you up." Corpse was still smiling.
"Wha- how?"

"-Try and give you a kiss."

Sykkuno felt a warm feeling on his cheek for a split second. Then he felt an arm going across his back and a hand on the back off his head.

"I know you can't... hug back or lay your head down but this is the best I can do." Corpse said quietly but Sykkuno didn't care. He only wished he'd experienced this when Corpse was alive.

"I love you Sy."

"Love you too."

(This part is written a bit weirdly and I have trouble writing anything that sounds formal but please forgive me)

"So you think that the voices aren't just in your head anymore?"

"Yes? I... it- it's hard to explain- it's not a voice it's... him? Like a ghost."

"Well, I don't know anything about the paranormal but I don't think you should be acknowledging these voices."

(smol time skip)

Sykkuno pushed through a door and is now walking down the street to get home.

"Sy, you can't just ignore me because some guy with a physicology degree said so."

The wind was blowing slightly and it was getting colder even though it was still early in the day.

"Sykkuno c'mon... I'm not a delusion I proved it!"

"Sy please, you were all happy this morning. How could you have a change of heart that fast?"

They were out in public so Sykkuno got his phone out to talk.

"I shouldn't have acknowledged you? Well what the fuck? You did and I haven't seen you this happy in the last year since I died!"

"I can't be with someone who isn't alive" Sykkuno typed.

"But we were together for the past few days and I wasn't alive then!"

(another smol time skip)

"Sy, what is wrong?"

They were back at his apartment. Sykkuno was standing next to the kitchen counter that was near the door.

"I shouldn't be talking to someone who, literally, isn't there." Sykkuno was trying to ignore Corpse and his heart, he wanted to keep talking with him but he shouldn't.

"Sykkuno you can't just ignore me, I'm stuck being near you- I can't leave!"

"Corpse, just ignore me!"

"Sy, I can't! Your telling me to ignore the one person I have too see every day?"

"I-... you can't think that whatever we have is okay. Your dead, I'm not. We can't be friends!"

"Friends...?"

"Sy I thought-"
"I'm sorry but I can't!"

"I'm going to have to exist for the rest of eternity knowing that I can talk to you, and you can hear me, but you choose not to respond?"

"Corpse I'm-"

"What? Sykkuno I loved you! Now your going to just ignore me?"

"Y'know maybe your right. Have a good night."

Again every sound seemed to disappear for Sykkuno as he sat down on his couch.
He laid his head on a pillow as he cried, eventually putting himself to sleep.

-------------------time skip----------------------

Sykkuno woke up to his phone ringing. He rubbed his eyes as he sat up and grabbed his phone.

When he looked at the caller he saw it was Corpse's number.

His eyes immediately went wide as he picked up the call.

Maybe it was someone who was now using Corpse's number accidentally calling him? Or he read it wrong?

"H- hello?" Sykkuno asked shakily, his throat felt dry from crying.

He could hear an AC coming from the other side, and quiet, deep breaths.

"Hello?"

Then quietly Sykkuno could hear signing coming from the phone.

"We don't talk enough. We should open up~"

"Corpse?"

"Before it's all too much. Will we ever learn?~"

"Corpse stop singing..."

"We've been here before. It's just what we know~"

"How are you calling me?"

"Stop your crying, baby It's a sign of the times~"

"I'm sorry."
