Not So Imaginary friends continuation of Imaginary Friends

Chapter 4

Cory goes through sad boy hours, also kinda short sorry

Cory's POV

I took a deep breath as I hid behind the tree. Is this really how I want to be. Do I really have nothing else. I sighed as I heard them laugh and cry. I could here their happiness. I peaked around the tree and I saw my best friend. He probably hates me now because I left him when he needed me and I left because I needed him. I shouldn't have gotten this attached he's just a person. I am just a person.

"Cory?" Jon asked as he hopped out from behind the other side of the tree. My heart stopped for a moment and revived itself when I realized it was just him.

"Shi- shoot! Jon are you trying to kill me or something?!" Cory burst out annoyed that Jon just popped out of nowhere like that.
"Whatever! Now why aren't you out there? Don't you want to see Uni?" Jon asked. I sighed, I guess I have to tell him now.

Jon's Pov

I waited for Cory's response. I looked at his face it was pulled into a frown.
"I don't think I can do this," Cory started, "Uni hasn't seen me in so long, I'm afraid that he won't want to be my friend,"

"Cory-"

"And I don't want him to be everything. I've waited years to see him and now I'm human and there is a whole world to explore. There is so much I need to do before we can be like we once were. I want to have different wants and needs. I don't want him to be the only thing I have. I want to be happy. And I need to figure out how to be happy on my own."

"Cory... that's fine. We all want you to be happy. But we don't just want you to be his friend but our friend, my friend so uh... don't think of this as just you and him because I'll be there and Nick and Ash and Bri. So what do you say... sport?" I reassured him awkwardly.

Third person POV
"I-I will. Not to be his friend but to maybe get my own," Cory smiled, "Now let's get out there!" Cory cheered putting on a funny voice. Jon laughed and they walked out. Cory was kind of nervous but he had to do this even if he does hate him. Because Uni is just a person. And so is he.

I feel like every time I write it's when my life isn't going well. It's like "I'm taking an emotional health day because I'm not feeling good mentally" while I do more and less at the same time. Well uh yeah hopefully I can update this when my life isn't sh*tty. Have a good day/week/month/year everyone!
Peace!
