His Biggest Fan

CHAPTER 6

My heart can’t take so much pain.  I look at the magazines over and over trying to find a trace of me in him.  There’s nothing, I have to accept that he lied to me.  He never loved me and I was just the rebound girl holding him back from his true love.  I cried myself to sleep that night.  The next morning I woke up to the same realization and cried some more.  I don’t think I’ve ever cried this much.  When I feel like I have no more tears left suddenly more tears flow down.

When is this agony going to stop?  I have never been the kind of girl who gives up.  I need to move on and put the pieces back together again.  I want to sleep so I don’t think and I don’t eat because nothing is appetizing to me anymore.  My family knows what I am going through.  My mother and my sister do their best to console me and my brothers always try to make me laugh.  I am blessed to have a wonderful family.

The days pass by and they turn into weeks.  It’s been a month now since I found out Ian went back with his ex girlfriend.  I don’t go into twitter and facebook anymore since then.  I changed my number just in case he decides to call to explain.  I don’t need his explanations now, maybe than but not now.

My mom invites me and my sister to a girl’s night at her house.  We haven’t had one in a while.  I’m thinking that they are doing this for my benefit and not theirs.

“We really needed a girl’s night.”  My mom says smiling.

We bought all sorts of junk food and rented a lot of girly movies to watch.  This is what girl’s night is all about, chatting away and eating junk food while we watch romantic movies.  My mom turns on the television and we begin to watch our first movie.  It’s “Grease” we start to dance around the room as they start to sing and dance.

I feel really dizzy and I black out, when I come to I am on the floor and my mom and sister are beside me.  “Eliana are you okay?”  My sister asks.

“Sweetie you fainted, you scared us to death.”  She says crying.

“Mom I’m fine,” I manage to say.  “I hadn’t eaten anything so this jumping around must of gotten the best of me.  I’m fine mom don’t worry.”  I say reassuring her.

I lay still for a moment trying to get my blood circulating evenly through my body.  My mom and sister help me up and I still feel a bit dizzy so I sit on the couch.

“You really scared us.  Is this the first time you faint?”  She asks.

“Yes,” I mutter.

My sister looks baffled, “I’m taking you to the Doctor tomorrow, it’s not normal for you to faint like that.”  She says.

My sister is a nurse so I nod in agreement.  “I’m sure it’s just because I ate so much junk food.  I had a sugar rush and fainted.  That must be it.”  I murmur.

The next morning my sister takes me to see a Doctor.  We are both waiting for Doctor Amy Thomas in a smaller room.  I am already out of my clothes and in a gown.  The nurse already took my vitals and everything was okay.  I feel perfectly fine but my sister insists on bringing me here anyway.  I don’t want to argue with her so I go along.
