Somebody That I Used To Know

Just Go

Sort of graphic ED scene at the end

Denise lays on the couch, scrolling through her phone. The doorbell rings and she groans as she picks herself up off of the couch, it was a long night.

"Tom?" she says and opens the door.

"Did you see them?" Tom asks, walking inside. "Be honest."

"It's good to see you too."

"Denise, which ones did you see?"

"I don't know what you're talking about."

"Of course you do. The pictures and videos that were posted of me, which ones did you see?"

"None."

"Denise."

"I got a tag about it and I blocked the account. I didn't see anything. I know about it but I didn't look, don't worry."

"Are you sure that you didn't see anything?"

"I'm positive."

"Good."

Tom drops his bag onto the table and Denise steps forward, enveloping him in a hug. She tightly holds onto him and places her head in his shoulder. Her eyes close and she tries not to shudder while thinking of what she saw in the video, Tom could never know of that though. "Are you okay?"

"I'd rather not answer that." Tom whispers.

"Shh, it's okay. I doubt that anyone saw it."

"I would disagree."

"Don't worry about anything. Do you know who posted it?"

"I don't. Molly said that we'll get a lawyer but I don't think we'll find out. I want to, of course, but it's not like there's anything else they can come at me with. They posted everything."

"Have you eaten today?"

"Molly made Lily breakfast so I had some french toast sticks."

"That's all you've eaten today?"

"It's more than enough."

"That's ridiculous. What do you want? I'll make you dinner. We have chicken, I can do caprese sandwiches."

"No, Denise, I don't want dinner."

"Well you gotta eat dinner."

"I don't have to eat anything. I don't want to eat right now, okay? I don't have an appetite."

"Tom, you had an eating disorder. You should probably make sure you're on top of eating."

"I'm already on top of eating, I had breakfast."

"But what if you start needing help again? Let me make you dinner."

"Denise, my goodness, please. I'm not eating. I don't have an appetite because of the videos being posted, it makes me sick."

"I'm sorry that you don't have an appetite but you used to have an eating disorder. I don't want you to make yourself sick because of this."

"Eating will make me sick."

"So will not eating. What about something light? I could make a summer sale, that's easy."

"No, Denise, I don't want even a single ounce of food to enter my body until tomorrow. Do you understand?"

"Tom-"

"This is why Molly and I didn't work out. Anyone else sips a meal and you throw a party. I do it and you shove food down my throat."
