Ok so I've been working on something besides studying for my exams. Because I. Am. Dumb.
So here's an excerpt and tell me what you think about it.
***
"JESUS CHRIST",
"And just like that", Charlie's voice sighed over the phone, "We lost yet another pure soul to the hands of religion",
"Charlie, I'm fat",
"Yes you are dumb",
"NO CHARLIE. I'M LITERALLY FAT",
"Yes Theo. You're stupid, I'm glad you realized",
"CHARLIE. I'M NOT KIDDING. I HAVE GAINED WEIGHT. LIKE I HAVE A PROTRUDING BELLY",
"So does Spencer Barbosa", He sniffled, "Gotta respect the QUEEN. OF BODY POSITIVITY",
"IT HANGS. AND IT JIGGLES. CHARLIE IT JIGGLES",
"Your tummy don't jiggle jiggle, it folds, you wanna see it wiggle wiggle-",
"I CANT SEE MY VAGINA WHEN I SIT! CHARLIE I CANT EVEN SEE IT WHEN I STAND", I shrieked, "And what on earth happened to my thighs? And my butt? ARE THOSE STRETCHMARKS",
"For sure, it makes me wanna dribble dribble, you know-",
"CHARLIE I HAVE STRETCH MARKS. I HAVE RED STRETCH MARKS",
"Kim, there's people that are dying",
"I am going to kill you through the phone",
"Not worth the effort, I'm coming back in a week anyways",
"How do I go to school?", I started hyperventilating, "Landon and Maddy are waiting for me at school!",
"Calm down", Charlie clicked his tongue, "Why don't you wear the t-shirt I got you for the car wash? You said three of you could fit into it",
"That t-shirt, is yellow",
"Your point?",
"I look terrible in yellow",
"Well then you go naked",
"I did do that once",
"Ugh, image delete please", He groaned.
"But I'll look so stupid! Wearing that t-shirt!",
"Theo", Charlie exhaled, "People don't care as much as you think they do, you could be wearing a potato sack as long as you're confident enough to",
"I would rather die",
"I'm not kidding!", He explains, "Marilyn Monroe modeled a potato sack once",
"You really think I can pull off yellow?",
"A 100%", He chuckled, "Now I have to go, because mom's in one of her moods, I have a surprise for you when I get back, Love you, buh bye",
I made a stupid decision that day. I listened to Charlie. I heeded. His advice. The same boy who'd got me a dislocated wrist when he convinced me to try out skateboarding.
I think my common sense had finally escaped my mind and caused that lapse of judgment. Because nothing prepared me for what happened next.
