KAROLINE POV
I walked into the cafeteria, this was the first time I was able to make myself do this. There were other people in here, but I sat to the back. I looked down at my plate. Grapes, half of a sandwich, and a couple chips. So many calories, so many things I didn't want to deal with. I looked at my plate.
"Is this seat saved," a girl, around my age asked. I slowly shook my head. She had a hospital bracelet, so she was a patient.
"I am guessing you don't talk much," she asked.
"No, not really. I don't really talk much at meal times."
"Oh, I get it. My name is Ashley Reed. I am 15, and I am in here because my parents couldn't deal with me."
"I am Karoline Lovato. I am 14, I am in here because my doctors, are dumb as hell."
"Nice to meet you Karoline," she said.
"Nice to meet you too, Ashley. What are you really in here for," I asked.
"Anorexia, how about you," she asked.
"Same."
"How long ago were you diagnosed?"
"Two years, when my mom came into my life. You?"
"A year ago."
"What ward are you in?"
"The childrens ward, room D3."
"Really? I am room D5. Okay, so who is in here?"
"Those are the older eating disorder people, they are twenty to twenty two. I used to eat with them. The rest are either visitors, or kids with eating disorders. They don't like me too much."
"Why," she seemed so cool, why would people not like her?
"This is why," she said. She turned around and made sure the nurse wasn't looking. She trashed 75% of her food. She looked up at me, and smiled.
"How long have you been here," I asked.
"A couple of months," she looked at the remainder of her food.
"I am going to be your friend, and talk, there is no reason for me not to. Just because, you don't want to recover, doesn't mean I don't want to. My mom would kill me if she found out, I wasn't trying. I have a goal, and that is to be healthy. That might not be your goal, and that is totally okay. I want to get to know you, you seem really cool," I smiled.
"Thanks, I guess. You seem cool too. I don't want to get better, I want to get skinny. I am not letting anyone stand in my way."
"I get it, I really do. Do your thing, it's none of my business. None at all, I am not a snitch. You go ahead and do whatever you think is best."
"Thanks, you are cool about this. Not a lot of people are."
"I have been through treatment two times already. I get it, you want to be skinny. It's okay. I don't blame you, just stay safe. I don't want to know that you got hurt, and I could've done something to prevent it."
"I will, I am. I promise," she smiled.
I finished my meal, the nurse check my plate and let me go. I walked up stairs, and Bea was in the waiting room. She hasn't talked to me in a while, I pissed her off.
"Baby," I screamed, jumping into her arms.
"Hey baby girl," she laughed.
"I thought you hated me," I laughed.
"I was pissed off, but I talked to Demi. It's all good now. I took it personally."
"I am getting better, I hadn't taken my medication. I am back on track, or getting there."
"That's really good, really good," she smiled.
"What's wrong," I asked.
"Us. I feel so disconnected. I can't see you as much. I felt like shit because I thought you hated me. I fucked up, and my parents are pissed."
"Okay, us. We are going to be fine. We are going through a rough patch, it won't last forever. Your parents? They might be pissed off, but that's okay. Alright? They will get over it."**2 WEEKS LATER**
NAYA POV
"Baby, what are we doing?"
"You'll see, just a little bit longer."
Tonight, was THE night. I was finally proposing to Demi. I had a really cute dinner on the beach, and a really cute speech to go with it.
"What is this," she asked as we approached the dinner.
"This is for you, but before," I said sitting her down and I sat down next to her, "Baby, we have been together for a time now. The kids, love me, you love me, my life is complete. We have been together through thick and thin, and I want to stay with you through the thick and thin. I want to have a baby with you, I want to grow old with you. Most of all, I want to eat with you. But sadly, we can't eat until you accept this." I pulled out a ring, a perfect ring.
"Naya, yes. Of course, why wouldn't I? I love you so much, so much. You are mine, and now you can be officially mine."
I slid the ring on her finger, and kissed her over and over again. We had to hurry and eat because we had a meeting with Karoline's doctors. Then we are going to visit Zack.
