"Simon, hunny, please talk to me" The young blonde boy looked up towards his mother and blinked, crawling away back to his room. He didn't want to speak to his parents, hell, in his little brain he's made himself believe they aren't real either. The only person he can rely on is Josh. The only real person he knows.

Though according to his parents, and his doctors, Josh isn't real. That makes Simon angry, it made him stop talking unless it is with Josh.

It's his 7th birthday today, they tried throwing a party but Simon didn't want to go, he wanted to sit with Josh.

"It's getting worse!" Simon's mother shouted at the doctor, grasping onto her husbands shirt for support. "I understand Mrs. Minter but...maybe we should stop pushing his creative mind in the sand and let him "Invite Josh" over. We can listen in on his conversations with Josh and learn how he's feeling" The doctor explained and then offered,  clicking his pen as he got ready to write down if the parents agreed or not.

Mrs Minter nodded her head slowly, her husband rubbing her back.

"Josh! That's not fair!" Simon whined, hitting Josh's chest as he came back down off of the dresser Simon couldn't reach. "I'm sorry, do you forgive me?" Josh smiled teasingly, going to hug Simon but disappeared as the door swung open and Simon's doctor walked in.

"It's time for your new pills, Simon" "No! I don't need those things! I've had less episodes" "I heard you talking to Josh" "Well....well that's because he's real" Simon whispered, sitting down on his bed.

"Can you tell me a bit about Josh?" Simon's features brightened as he looked up at the doctor and nodded.

"He's tall, like super tall. He's never mean to me. He talks to me and helps me with my problems, he-" "what problems?" "Uh-nothing. Back to Joshy" The doctor sighed but she nodded along anyways, sitting down beside Simon.  "He has dark brown hair and very pretty hazel eyes! He's pale, like me! And he stays with me, alll day, until you or my parents walk in. Then he leaves. I think he's scared you'll take him away from me" The doctor nodded and frowned, "Simon,  we think Josh is a side effect to your tumor." Simon narrowed his eyes and crossed his arms over his chest. "No. You're wrong. You'll see, he said he's going to come and save me" "save you?" "Yes. He's going to take me away from you. He feels what I feel,  he sees what I see, if I get hurt, so does he. Now leave, please, so I can talk to him again"

"Simon, do you want to go to the park?" Simon nodded his head and got off of the couch, placing his tablet down. "Go put your shoes on then" Simon chuckled and ran over to the front door, crouching down and grabbed his shoes and football cleats.
