Ashton's POV
"Mr. Irwin.. I didn't expect to see you here like this."
I glanced at the door and saw Dr. Frank, looking nervous and upset.
"Mhm.."
"You know the dri-"
"I don't want too."
He looked stunned and I don't blame him.
"Mr. Irwin. You know the risks if you continue."
"I'm aware. Just give me the paperwork so I can leave.."
He couldn't say anything else as he handed me a clipboard with the paperwork and a pen.
I finished it all rather quickly and left, my legs feeling like they were caving in with every step.
I just had a bad moment, it wasn't horrible.
I checked the time and blinked a few times.
6:21AM
How long was I out for?
It didn't matter, all that mattered is I had to go home and check my weight again.
If these fuckers fed me anything-
I had to stop thinking that way as tears were quickly building up and my head was dizzy enough as is.
I finally reached home and it all felt so dark now.
I felt like a machine who is programmed to immediately check my weight as soon as I get home.
I stood on the scale and waited.
Luckily, I had lost more. Just a bit more and it'll be fine.
I checked my phone and had a missed call from one of the teachers at the school. I didn't realize she had called 15 minutes ago, I should've heard it.
I called her back, the first ring not being able to finish before I heard her.
"Mr. Irwin? Are you okay?"
She sounded frantic and scared, I chuckled and let a sigh follow.
"Yes, yes.. I'm perfectly okay. I just had a bad moment yesterday. I can come in today."
"Are you sure? We can find someone to cover for you. You really don't look good, Ash.."
"I'm sure and I look fine. I'll see you later."
I hung up quickly and looked at myself. I didn't look fine, I looked huge and disgusting. I just needed to lose more, that's all.
I got dressed into my normal wear for the school day, my pants were practically falling off of me and I had to keep putting extra holes in my belt.
I brushed my hair, groaning at how much was falling out. I needed to pick up some vitamins on the way home.
I headed back out to my car. Just as I reached the car door, I was hit with dizziness again. I absolutely hated how dizzy I'd get.
If I wasn't getting dizzy every second, I'd be perfectly fine.
I managed to arrive at the school at 6:48 AM, not perfect but good enough.
I made my way to my classroom and set everything up. I kept everything organized so there wasn't much to do.
I felt tired, I needed alot more coffee now than I usually drink. I'd say I now drink over a liter of coffee a day just to get by.
I looked into my bag and looked at the vacant space where my lunchbox used to occupy.
It felt nice, I was just being healthy. That's all this was, no one had any reason in the world to be worried about me.
