"I win! In your face suckers!" I yelled, as we finished playing Mario Cart in the hotel room.

"You cheated!" Louis pouted, throwing his controler on the couch and crossing his arms.

"Did not!"

"Did too!"

"Did not!"

"Rematch!"

"Bring it on!" I flopped on the couch and picked Louigi as my player. We raced around a particularly hard track.

"First place!" I jump up again.

"No fair! You pushed me off the track! "

"No I didn't! "

"Ye-"

"Guys! " Louis was cut off by Liam. I stuck my tongue out at Louis and sat back down on the couch. He narrowed his eyes at me and sat down too. I took out my phone with a sly grin and discreetly snapped a pic of Louis pouting. I then put it in a tweet.

Avebave466: @LouisTomlinson is pouting because he lost :)

I attached the picture and tweeted it. I had a lot of followers now because all the boys have followed me. I heard Louis phone ding. He shot me a look and fiddled with his phone.

Ding!

LouisTomlinson: #payback >:) @avebabe466

The picture was of me stuffing my face at a restaurant. Louis and I were having another one of our eating competitions. I was mortified. What if someone thought I was fat? I took a deep breath and told myself not to worry.

Later that night I was scrolling through twitter and looked at my mentions. I got many in reply to the pic Louis tweeted. Some were telling me how lucky I was too be on tour with them and asking me to follow them and such. The ones that caught my eye were the ones about my weight. Some were commenting on how I eat so much I must be fat. I felt tears prickle in the back of my eyes. I knew I was gaining weight. I am just going to have to go on the diet again.

"Good morning. " Harry greeted me.

"Morning." I walked past him and sat on the couch. I flipped on the TV and channel surfed.

"What do you want for breakfast?" he asked me. I knew this was coming.

"Nothing right now. Thank you."

"Your not eating? " Niall asked. I shook my head and told them the excuse I had thought of earlier.

"No, I have some bad cramps." Not a full lie, but not the full truth. Niall nodded and Harry looked at suspiciously. I gave him a reassuring smile and went back to the TV.

Lunch was easy to get away with because they were working so I just said I ate when they were out. They believed although Harry still looked suspicious.

At dinner I ate almost nothing. I pushed my food around and made a convincing show. I had to take some bites when Harry looked at me though. I went to my room early saying I had a headache which wasn't a lie.

Once I got to my room I checked my twitter. People were still commenting on how I was fat and I was even ugly now. I vaguely wondered if these people had a life. I read a particularly cruel comment and couldn't hold in the tears any longer.

I had been crying for a few minutes when my door opened. I buried my face in my pillow and pretend I was asleep.

"I know your not asleep, Avery." Harry's voice said. He closed my door and sat on my bed. "What happened?"

"Nothing." I replied weakly.

"Avery." I sighed and handed him my phone. I buried my face in my damp pillow. After a few minutes I felt strong arms go around me a pull me into hos chest. I started crying again. I didn't know why they all picked on me.

I heard my door open.

"What's going on? " Niall asked.

"What happened Avery?" Liam asked.

"We should probably tell them now." Harry said to me. I sighed, then nodded into his chest. I decided to keep my face there. "Go get Louis and Zayn." A minute later they were all in my room.

"Remember the concert we met Avery and her friends at? " I am assuming they nodded because he continued. "I actually found Avery passed out in the hallway. She woke up a few minutes later and I noticed she looked really thin. I asked her about it and she told me how she was bullied about being fat and hadn't eaten barely anything the whole week."

"Avery is anorexic?" Liam asked. I flinched at the word anorexic. It sounded harsh.

"Yeah. After dinner that night I gave her my number and made sure that she ate. But then she stopped telling me and I found out that the bully was back. That is why I asked for her to come on tour with us. She was doing really well until Louis tweeted that pic of her eating and she got all this hate on being fat."

"I'm really sorry Avery. I didn't know this would happen. " Louis apologized.

"It's not your fault. " I told him. It came out muffled by Harry's chest which my face was still hidden in.

"Have you eaten anything today? " Harry asked.

"Not really. " Harry pulled me to the kitchen and made me a sandwich. We all watched a movie and I felt relieved that they knew.
