H8

Rehearsal went well and Lexi and I were waiting to get our hair and makeup done and clothes on when she got up to go to the bathroom. I had to pee so I went behind her a minute later, but she didn't know I was following her. When I walked in I heard someone trying to throw up.

"Lex?" I asked and I heard some gasp, before flushing a toilet and walking out.

"What." She said flatly.

"I'm worried about you." I said sincerely and she didn't care.

"Don't be. I'm fine." She spat and dried her hands.

"Alexis, I know you're not eating much. And I know you just made yourself throw up. Do you have an eating disorder or something?" I asked seriously, and she knew I was because I never called her by her full name unless I was.

"Why do you care." She whispered through tears. I walked over and hugged her, and to my surprise, she hugged me back. She started crying into my shoulder and I rubbed her back.

"I'm texting Liam, Lexi. I need to. He deserves to know." I whispered and she tensed up.

"Brooke! No!" She shushed.

"Lexi, he's your boyfriend. He needs to know." I reassured her and she hid her face in her hands.

"To: Liam

Please come into the girls bathroom. Now." I texted him and within what felt like seconds later there was a knock on the door. I opened it and he looked around quickly before pulling a bawling Lexi into his chest.

"LiLi, I'm sorry." She cried and Liam turned to me.

"Lex, you tell him. It's not my story to tell." I whispered. She was shaking and pulled out of Liam's chest.

"Baby, what's wrong?" He asked as he rubbed her arms.

"Li, I-I.. Brooke, I can't." She broke down and Liam pulled her back into his chest and turned to me, looking as worried as can be.

"Liam, I noticed she hasn't been eating much lately. And I just walked in and she was throwing up. She has an eating disorder, Liam." I said quietly and his face dropped before he hugged Lexi even tighter.

"Thanks for telling me, Brooke. I'll take care of Lexi and you go find Harry. He was looking for you." Liam whispered and I nodded as I left. I found Harry and when I opened the door his face grew insanely concerned.

"Babe, have you been crying?" He asked.

"Oh, shit, yeah. I was." I cursed as I wiped my face off. He pulled me into a hug and started rubbing my back.

"What happened?" He whispered in my ear.

"I just found out my best friend has an eating disorder." I said quietly and Harry pulled back and looked into my eyes as I nodded.

"I'm so sorry." He told me and I nodded.

"Thank you. I need to rant right now, I'm sorry. I hate when people say they're sorry in situations like grandparents that pass away because it doesn't fix anything. I'm not saying that about you. I really appreciate it when you say it. But just keep in mind for the future not to say you're sorry in serious situations because I don't see the point because it can't change anything." I ranted (A/N this is how I really do feel about that stuff) and he hugged me again.
