~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You sat at the dinner table with Demi trying to eat, but you were only pushing the food around your plate with your fork instead. You weren't sure how it got this bad or how you'd come this far but you couldn't eat anything these days. Your brain always calculated every calorie and you felt so ashamed of yourself. It had been going on for months now, starting out with you just eating less and less, but now you couldn't eat much of anything at all.

Demi looked up at you, frowning when she saw that you hadn't taken a single bite. "Princess are you okay?" "Hm? Yeah I'm fine. I'm just not really hungry." "You haven't eaten anything at all today, baby girl. Can you just try to eat something? Just a few bites? For me?" You took a sharp breath but nodded your head, pushing some of the food on your fork and eating it. You ate a few more bites before you felt it- the bile hit your throat and you stood up, running to the downstairs bathroom and closing the door before proceeding to get sick into the toilet. You heard the door open and Demi ran over to you, her hands on your back as you got sick.

A few minutes later you finally stopped throwing up and stood up on your shaky knees, reaching for your tooth brush as you tried to get rid of the taste in your mouth. Meanwhile, Demi stood up and watched you, her mind racing as she noticed then just how small you were. Your shirt was riding up a little, exposing your stomach. Your bones were starting to poke out and she knew right then what you were doing, and it broke her heart to even think about it. You rinsed the toothpaste out of your mouth before placing it back in the cup, looking over at Demi and giving her your best fake smile. "I'm sorry baby I-" "y/n stop. Why didn't you tell me?" "Tell you what?" "That you have an eating disorder." You froze and bit your lip, trying to think of an excuse but you couldn't. The tears welled up in your eyes making your vision blur and you slid down the wall before burying your head in your hands. Demi sighed and sat down next to you, pulling you into her arms and rubbing your back. "Why baby?" "Everything. The rumors, the hate, everything just became so intense and I didn't even realize what I was doing. By the time I did I was so addicted to doing it, I couldn't stop. Every time I ate something it made me sick. I'm sorry Demi, I thought this would help or maybe it'd get better on its own but it hasn't. It's only gotten worse."

She bit her lip to keep herself from crying, looking up at the ceiling tiles to blink away the tears before looking back at you. "Princess look at me." You hesitated but looked up at her, her thumbs going to wipe away the tears from your cheek. "I know you think this will help you but it won't. I've been there before and it doesn't help. I'm gonna help you through this okay?" "I'm sorry-" "don't. Don't apologize y/n, it's okay. We're gonna get you some help and I'm gonna be there by your side every step of the way. I love you so much. We'll get through this together." You nodded and kissed her lips softly, pulling away seconds later to rest your head on her chest, the sound of heartbeat against your ear making you feel even calmer. You couldn't help but smile knowing that this whole situation was gonna be over soon. All you wanted was to get better and you knew you could do it with Demi by your side.
