EVIE'S POV
**Time skip 1 week and 6 days!**
It's the day before my birthday.. my 18th birthday.. I haven't seen Ash since that day at the coffee shop. I have gotten pretty bad. I haven't been sober in at all within these 2 weeks. I'm constantly high or drunk. I've lost 15lbs since that day, I eat only when I feel faint. Which is once every few days. I still look the same though, it's kind of disappointing.
I'm laid in bed thinking about everything, I haven't even packed to move out tomorrow. Ash texted me a couple times to remind me to pack. But I've been busy, with stuff..
I slowly sit up, and grab my duffle bag. I don't own much. I grab my clothes from my small shelves and shove them into the duffle bag. I grab my few pairs of shoes and stuff them in. I grab my makeup, hair stuff, any other belongings. I zip up the duffle bag.
I sit on my bed and sigh. I haven't taken any pills today or even smoked. I feel like shit. I look in my small little bookbag for some pills. And I find a couple of pills that look like Adderall or maybe Xanax.. very differnt pills but I couldn't remember what this was. I don't really care I take 2 of the 4 pills. I wash them down with my bottle which is full of vodka.
I sigh because i know I've gotten pretty bad but I can stop if I wanted too, I just didn't care. Plus I feel better when I'm high.
I laid back down and scrolled on my phone for hours. Before I realized it, it was 11:50pm. How was it so late?? I just laid down to scroll on tiktok? What the hell. Well I have 10 minuets before I'm officially 18.. let's take a swig of my vodka to celebrate my last 10 minuets of being a minor.. being a child.. living here.. everything is about to change for me..
8 minuets pass by and I get a FaceTime call from the one and only Ashton Irwin. I answer and it says connecting because this place has shit wifi. Once it loads I see Ashs smile drops quickly, along with 3 other guys. I smile at him softly and he is staring at me with a concerned face.
"Ev..have you eaten today you look... pale.. and sick..your face is sunken in.. are you okay?.." He said quietly.
I hold back a smile but inside I'm smiling ear to ear. He thinks I look thin!
"Yea I went to Macas and got chicken nuggets to celebrate my last day as a minor" I fake laughed and forced a smile out. I lied straight through my teeth.. but they all seemed to believe it because they all smiled and chuckled. Except for one of them... Luke..

This was a short ass chapter. Kind a filler chapter tbh. But I'm writing the next chapter after I post this!! And will upload it soon.
Does Luke know she's lying? Will she continue to get worse or will she ask for help. How will moving in be? What will happen for her birthday?
