ASK ME IF I DO THIS EVERYDAY I SAID OFTEN, ASK HOW MANY TIMES SHE RODE THE WA- *Slap*

I shut off my alarm as a tired Demi walked in wearing a purple robe rubbing her eyes with messy pink hair.

"Okay I know I said to change your alarm, but I didnt mean to change it to a song about sex." "Hey, you said to change it, so I did, should I make it Get Back? Or La La Land? Would that be better?" I laughed. Demi rolled her eyes and grabbed my phone off the nightstand next to me. I watched as her fingers tapped away on the screen and then threw my phone back at me walking out. I checked my phone seeing she changed my alarm to American Dream by MKTO. "Just cause you changed it dosnt mean I cant change it back!" I yelled to Demi in the other room. "Just cause you change it back dosnt mean I cant ground you!" She yelled back. I quickly changed it to a better song and checked my messages.

Amelia
Morning beautiful
Stay strong😘
Eat some breakfast today okay? I love you :)

I smiled reading the text again. Knowing someone cares that much about me to write me that cute good morning text made me so happy, until my demons ruined it.

Shes faking it
She hates you
Shes just being nice
She'll leave you like everyone else
Your just a freak
You probably scare her
Fat ass

I shook them out of my head. No not today, todays going to be a good day. Im going to eat, im going to stay clean, I wont purge. Now I have a real friend. I smiled, satisfied at my ability to block them out.

Today I decided to look nice, it was going to be happy day today. I set a goal for myself, eat all my breakfast, eat more then an apple at lunch and stay clean for a week.

I put on a comfy red long sleeve sweater and grey skinny jeans with brown boots. I put on some flower earrings and a gold bracelet and put my hair in a messy side braid.

"Hey baby, you look cute today." Demi smiled at me as I came down the stairs into the kitchen. She lifted a pan off the stove and put some eggs on my plate.

Okay Aria, you can do this I told myself. I took a deep breath and slowley took one bite of the eggs. Keep it down, keep it down. Another bite, another bite. I took more eggs off the plate and slowly ate them.

I looked down, satisfied with myself when I saw I had eaten half the plate. It was small, but I was getting somewhere. I looked up at the clock, 7:15, it took me 15 minutes to eat half a plate of eggs? Seriously?

"Hey good job Aria." Demi smiled. "Im so glad your willing to get better, keep this up and youll be better in no time!" She said giving me a tight squeeze. "We should probly get going though, grab your bag and meet me in the car." She grabbed her keys and walked out as i followed behind with my bag.

I met up with Amelia and the gang and we started talking. At first I was pretty silent, just listening to their conversations mindlessly day dreaming until .Amelia turned to me and whispered something in my ear, yet loud enough for the rest of the girls to hear.

"Hey Aria, look over there, I think hes staring at you." That got the reaction of "oos" and "aws" from the rest of the girls. "Ew no he's gross!" I said pushing her away. She giggled. "Go talk to him! A boyfriend is just what you need." She said winking at me nudging my shoulder. "Ew no ill pass." "Okayyyy fineee." She sighed and turned away but right as I thought she would drop the topic, she shoved me right into him.

"AMELIA!" I screamed at her in surprise. "ARIA HAS A CRUSH ON YOU DEREK!" She called. All the girls burst out laughing. "DO NOT!" I yelled. "You dont?" The boy asked making me change my attention to him. "N-no I mean, er, we just met, litterally, maybe we can uh...talk.." I said awkwardly, cursing at Amelia in my head. "Well maybe that can change. Hi im Derek." He said smiling. His smile was so cute, he had cute ruffly brown hair and his face was pretty darn hot. Plus i was almost 100% sure he had some nice abs. "Im Aria." I smiled back.
