CHAPTER TEN:

I wake up, and begin to get ready.

I got the job at Barnes & Noble. So we work together on the weekends. Today is my first day there. I can't believe I have been here for a week already. We got here last Saturday.

I did hang out with Kara and Dom at the mall last night. I had fun hanging out with them. Sadly when I was them I was forced to eat with them. I had to get something at McDonald's. I got a small fries, and water. I felt so disgusting. Each fry made me want to throw up.

I am in the bathroom. I am about to weigh myself.

112.2

I am finally getting farther away from the weight I was when I was at my grandparents. I can't believe I was 116.4. I know at one point over at their house they were fattening my up, and I weighed 120. It grossed me out for days. I had to run it all off. They kept making me eat. Saying things like I am too thin.

Now I am 112.2. Feeling quite good. There's still so much more to loose to feel good about myself.

Since the first day of school I've met more people. I did hang out with Frank a bit. I was getting closer to him.

I hear a knock on my window. Odd. I look out to see Mikey knocking on my window. I forgot his window was next to mine, and our houses are so close together. Gerard is right behind him.

I smile, and go to open my window. I felt a bit weird being in my pjs, but it's Mikey. He climbs in, and then so does Gerard.

"So this is your room." Gerard says.

"Sorry I am not dressed yet." I say.

"We don't work till later today anyway. 12-5 remember?" Mikey looks at me.

"I know. So why are you guys here?" I ask curiously.

"To come bother you obviously." Gerard says.

"Also Gerard wants to get coffee. It's a Way tradition to go Saturday mornings to get coffee together and bro talk for a bit before I work. Since we've adopted you as a Way, that means you're coming. We'll just lay on your cozy bed till you're ready." Mikey says while laying on top of my bed.

"He's sort of a baby without coffee."

"Oh you sure you want me in this tradition? I mean I am really not a Way sibling in reality." I was touched, but I didn't want to intrude. "I don't want to intrude on tradition."

"Nonsense. We adopted you. Your ours now. No way out. Ha WAY out." Gerard laughs at his own joke. I roll my eyes.

"I'll go dressed you dork." I come over and kiss Gerard on the head, and Mikey on the bed. I quickly grab some clothes, and go change in the bathroom.

"I can't live without coffee." Gerard remarks as he takes another sip of his black coffee.

"Agreed." I mutter as I take a delightful sip of my black coffee as well.

"So....are you still not going to tell Frank?" Mikey asks me softly.

"No guys. I just want to be his friend for now, ok? So drop it." I say.

"Ugh but I already know you guys would be so cute. It hurts me." Gerard says.

"So you would be ok if Frank gets a girlfriend soon?" Mikey asks me with his eyebrows raised.

"Yes, he's my friend."

"It's going to happen soon. Frank dates often." Mikey scolds me.

"We just want to make sure you do what's best for you. Don't want you to get hurt." Gerard grins at me.
