"Charlotte. Charlotte look at me!" yell my voice shaking slightly, I push on her shoulder as cold eyes burn into mine. A faint tint of blue creeps from her usual deep pink lips, a thin clear sheet of water glosses over my eyes, I mean sweat glosses...
This chapter is in no way or form meant to offend anyone with any form of eating disorder and in no way is this chapter created to mock as it is a very serious matter that is barley talked about. Also the is set a week after the first chapter.
Jacqui's P.O.V I wake up and start the routine I had been forcing for weeks now. Wake up, jog 1.5 km, make a coffee, skip breakfast, skip lunch, force myself to eat dinner, sleep, repeat. As you can tell I have a eating disorder and I'm only just coming to terms with it. I was never happy with the way I looked in my teen years, actually I hated my body even as a child as young as 5. I remember seeing girls my age running around and they were slender, I remember looking badly at my body because I was chubby. Now I feel like I have to change, not to be heathy but because I need to be good enough even though everyone tells me that I am good enough. I quickly change into my grey everlast bra and some black tights. I pull my hair into a high ponytail and lace up my sneakers.

I leave a note on the kitchen counter for Charlotte before grabbing my keys and closing the door behind me.
Charlotte's P.O.V My eyes flutter open as light filters through my three quarter way closed blinds. I throw back the covers and sluggishly change into

before heading into the kitchen a small white sheet of paper sits on the counter 'You know the drill. Morning jog don't make me anything or wait up for me. Thanks -Jacqui' I crumple up the paper and basketball shoot it into the "hoop" aka our trash can. It lands straight in the middle and I smile 'another day, another paper tossed, another live saved. All thanks to the great charli' I think chuckling slightly "ugh who's giggling? You woke me up" a voice says from my couch. Horse and deep. "Who are you? And what the hell are you doing in my house apartment thing." I say grabbing the fry pan I leave on the turned off stove, just in case. I swiftly move behind the couch and peer over and see a sleeping mark cuddling a sleeping Sean. I try not to laugh and grab my phone out of my bra. What it's the perfect place to have your phone, you can feel that's it's always on you and no one's gonna shove their hand down your top. I check that my flash is off and take a couple of pictures. Sean rolls over and his eyes jolt open, his face inches from Marks. I try my hardest not to laugh as he tries loosen Mark's grip to no avail. Eventually Mark rolls over and Sean flops off the couch and onto the blue, circle rug. I hold my hand to my mouth trying to conceal the laughter escaping my lips. ~Time skip~ Mark's P.O.V Jump back onto the girls couch, Charlotte left for work, Sean went back to record and I'm just currently waiting for Jacqui to get back. As a spare of the moment thing I start texting the group chat ------------------------------------------- M=Mark S=Sean F=Felix Cl=Clare Ch=Charlotte J=Jacqui ------------------------------------------- M: Hey guys I'm set to do a charity live stream and I was thinking of all doing it together, you guys down? S: Yeah Ch:YAH!!! Cl:Yep F:woo M:Jacqui? Ch: go check the house she might have left it here M: ok (Time skip a minute) M:It's not here, I've checked the whole house Cl:maybe it died while she was out. all Ch:nah she charges it every night so it wouldn't have died S:then where is she? M:well she never came home F:where do you think she is off the top of your head Charli. You do with live for her. Ch: probably either the coffee shop, Starbucks, the park or anywhere that has free wifi. M:ok I'll go look for her ---------------------------------------------- I place my phone in my back pocket and open the door stepping out of the apartment. I look at the handle as I shut the door behind me, I hear a clutter of footsteps coming closer and suddenly the stop abruptly as my head shoots up, I see Jacqui in workout cloths standing frozen in the hallway. She turns sharply and runs back down the satires, I start after her breaking onto the street she continues running on the side walk. I see an empty shot of just grass and I tackle her onto it, pinning her to the ground. Long sobs break from her chest I roll so my I'm lying on my back and she stays huddled in a little ball on the grass. I help her up and walk her to the park, by this time she has stopped crying and is constantly apologising. We sit on a bench and I clasp her hands "ok explain" I say. Jacqui's P.O.V "Ok explain" he says a serious look plastered on his face. So I did I explained everything, everything that I've been bubbling up inside me. By the time I've finished it was late afternoon and it was starting to get cold "ok I'm done and I know this is so cliche but I'm cold can we share your jacket" I say laughing "well it's a good thing I cliche too" he replies matching my laugh, he puts the jacket around both our shoulders and we start heading back to the apartment laughing and talking the entire way.
Ok! So I'm sorry that I haven't been posting lately I've been busy being a lazy ass. Also a big thank you to CharliBae12for yelling at me to keep writing. No joke she literally pulled at my face this morning to keep writing! 😂😂 Cya guys Shipoverload out *1003 words
