Cody Christian/Theo Raeken Imagines

"Well, you haven't changed a bit..." Cody

It had been years since I've seen Cody. I mean, I've seen him but I haven't really spent time with him. I guess when his new show All American took off, I wasn't good enough to hang out with anymore.

I'm an actress too but, I make sure that I still get to see my friends when I can. Cody however, made no effort what-so-ever to see me. I liked Cody, a lot. However, when we stopped being friends, I thought my feelings would go away. I was so, very wrong. They got even stronger. I didn't want to love him but I couldn't help it.

I still remember the day we just stopped talking. I'd tried texting him to see if our plans still stood for the afternoon but he never responded. Even when he eventually did, which wasn't until 2 days later, he didn't even apologize. All he said was that he couldn't put me over his job so he was dropping me from his contacts.

I went home and cried. I didn't know what-else to do. I mean, he was my best friend and he just dropped me for everyone else just like that. Eventually that sadness and hurt turned to anger and hatred.

I hated Cody for what he did. I'll be damned if he won't see how much it hurts.

*3 weeks later*

I was walking into a photo shoot and I stopped in my tracks when I saw him. Cody was there, speaking the the photographer.

"Hey, I'm guessing your the-y/n?" Cody said, shocked to see me.

"Hi," I said, afraid to say anything else.

"It's been so long! How've you been?" He asked, giving me a hug.

"Good. How about you?" I asked.

"Good! The shows doing great! Let's go catch up before the shoot?" He asked. I nodded and went with him up to the roof.

Once there, I placed my bag down and looked out over the city. It was my favorite, New York. I loved shooting here.

"So, how have you really been?" He asked, leaning against that railing.

"Oh so now you care?" I asked, rolling my eyes.

"I never stopped.." He asked confused.

"Don't act like you don't know where this is coming from. When you stopped responding to my texts?" I said.

"I responded." He said.

"Yeah, once, and it was to tell me that you were dropping me from your contacts Cody." I said, my eyes beginning to water.

"Y/n, I-"

"No, Cody. You hurt me so badly when you did that. I trusted you with everything I had and you just dropped me for other friends." I said, looking back over the city.

"Let's just go get this shoot over with so you can go back to your friends and I can go back to mine," I said, heading back inside.

"Y/n, wait!" Cody said, grabbing my arm and pulling me backwards.

"What else is there go day Cody? You clearly found some friends that we better than me and it's not like my feelings for you mattered in the first place because I thought they were pretty obvious but I guess not. Just forget I said anything," I said turning away again.

"Wait what? You're feelings for me?" He asked.

"Yes jackass, I like you. Hell, I love you. But you've clearly got better things so I'm gonna go do this shoot and I'll see you around." I said.

*6Hours later*

"Y/n, can I talk to you before you leave. Please?" Cody asked. I placed my purse on the chair and let out a sigh.

"Fine. But it better be good." I said, folding my arms.

"Look, I'm sorry about what happened. If I could take it back I would. I was just so caught up in what was going on, I didn't realize I was pushing my real friends away. Look, I'm not saying you should forgive me. I just want you to know that even though you may hate me, I'm still here for you if you need me. I never stopped caring about you. I just got lost. I love you too and not just as my best friend. You have no idea how much I regret what I did. I missed you so much. Can you please, forgive me?" he asked.

I sat there and all I could do was think. What he did was fucked up, but was that really worth throwing away the chance at being his friend again?

"Fine. I forgive you, but its gonna take some time for me to get back to where we were as friends. So if you can prove to me that you'll be there and you won't just abandon me, I'll agree to go on a date with you." I said.

As soon as Cody smiled I broke into a smile and hugged him. I took a deep breathe and took his the scent of his cologne. It was the one that I had bought him for his birthday a year ago.

"You still where the cologne I got you?" I asked.

"Of course, it's my favorite." He smiled and we walked out of the shoot together and decided to have lunch.
