You always hated the nights when you had to sneak around, the stolen kisses and being someone's secret. You never thought you'd be standing in your kitchen watching an interview Jenna Ortega was featured in, the same Jenna you had been sneaking around with. You and Jenna hadn't put a label on anything yet, but you were pretty sure you two had been in a relationship for the past two years because you did a lot more than just fucking whenever she called to say she needed you or whenever she came to your house. You hated how she made you feel, she made you feel special but not enough at the same time. You hated that you were the secret she kept for two ongoing years and still refused to say anything. At first you didn't mind because well you did start of just hooking up but then you fell in love, and you could swear she did too by the way she told you she loved you. 

You thought it was a simple cause of the 'she's not ready to come out yet' kind of thing but then she told her parents about you two, she told her close friends about you, even some of her co-stars but somehow you still felt like a secret. She couldn't tell her manager "-because he would tell me to break up with you" and she couldn't tell the world "-because I just have a lot going on right now and I can't have this on top of that too" and my personal favorite "I just don't think I can do that right now Y/n". Foe every excuse, you got more and more depressed but of course you'd never tell Jenna that, so instead you forced a smile, you kept saying the 'I love you's', not knowing if she meant it and you kept sleeping together. 

You didn't know what else to do, you didn't want to upset her and say the wrong thing. You loved Jenna deeply, you wouldn't want to lose her for anything but this, this was different. It felt like you were losing yourself. This was the beginning of the third year, and you were right in the middle of it. It more than you could say, you lost a lot of weight quickly, you wouldn't eat, you'd barely sleep, you wouldn't leave the house and when you did it was because Jenna wanted to hang out. Jenna didn't know, it wasn't because she was being a bad girlfriend, it was because you hid it well. It wasn't hard when you were dating an actress, she rarely around your house anymore because she was busy filming Wednesday and she had a lot of interviews, she was in Romania for Christ sakes. So, you made sure to wear makeup to cover your sunken eyes and cheeks, so that whenever she would call, which was almost every day, she wouldn't notice how weak you've grown. You knew she'd take the first flight she could get to you if she knew because somehow, she always put you first. Even if you were a secret to the world, she always made sure to put you first. 

She made sure you felt loved at every turn because she didn't want you to leave, she thought her life would get too much for you, she wanted to give you more reasons to stay than there was to go. And maybe it was getting too much, maybe that's why-

Suddenly you hear your phone ring, you move to pick it up and though you felt lightheaded, you answered. "Hello?" you heard heavy breathing "Hello sweet girl, are you okay? you sound very faint. Were you sleeping? I'm sorry I forgot about the time difference" you sigh "No I wasn't sleeping love, I was in the kitchen and got a little lightheaded, that's all" just by her voice along you can tell she was worried "What happened?" you laugh "Nothing much, I just haven't been feeling well tonight, I think it was the Chinese food" she sighs "Are you sure? because I could-" you interrupt "I'm sure babe. I'm fine" You were beginning to feel like you were falling and rising in repeat, you felt nauseous even though you've been on an empty stomach for the past 6 months "Hey can I call you back? I don't feel good right now, I think I need rest" she almost sounded sad when she spoke next "Uh yeah sure, I'll just call in the morning. I love you my sweet girl" you smile brightly even though you hated the feeling "I-" and there you went. 

The phone fell out of your hands and onto the floor, as did you. Your body was moving until it felt numb, your eyes rolled to the back of your head. The only sound you could hears was Jenna's voice "Babe, what was that?" you couldn't feel anything, and it felt like you were about to throw up "Y/n please answer me, are you okay?" you could hear it in her faint voice. Worry. But why? After that, all your senses were shot, and you couldn't hear that beautiful voice anymore. I could only realize that I was having a seizure and that could only mean that my secret was about to become a known fact in everyone's lives. Mostly Jenna's.

Jenna's POV

I was currently in Romania, still filming Wednesday, Things were getting a little difficult here because I couldn't focus anymore, I was too worried about my girl. She thinks I don't know that somethings wrong, but I do know, I called one of her friends the other to ask if she could check on Y/n but she had told me that ever since I left to start filming, Y/n hasn't been talking to anyone, she doesn't leave the house and the last time she saw her was a couple weeks ago and she said my sweet girl had gotten so thin, her clothes could barely even fit her anymore and she looked drained. So not only had she fallen into a depressive state, but she has also stopped eating all together and wouldn't tell me. Y/n wasn't the kind of girl who would ask for help so easily but it's been 6 months and she has said nothing, she instead has been pretending right to face and after every phone call I couldn't help but cry. 

I had just spoken to her on the phone, and I grew very worried, she wasn't talking, I could only hear sounds of struggle and she sounded like she was choking or something. I rushed back on set to see the cast all hanging out on a couch talking "Hey, you ready to start filming again?" Percy was the one to spot me first "Emma, can I use your phone real quick, it's an emergency?" she nodded, no questions asked and handed me her phone. I knew the password and I quickly typed in a number while trying to reach Y/n. "Baby, I need you to answer me, what's happening?" still no answer, the sound only got worse and suddenly I heard a crash, breaking of a glass. That was it for me, something was wrong, and I needed to do something fast. I pressed call on Emma's phone and put mine on speaker.

 "Hi, I need a favor" I could practically hear the way she rolled her eyes "Jenna, I told you Y/n doesn't talk to us anymore" I was kind of pissed off with her, she could have at least tried to be there for you, what kind of friend watches while you just slowly kill yourself "I know but that doesn't matter. Are you home?" she seemed confused "Uh yeah I just got in actually, works been hectic" I started pacing with the two phones in my hand while the cast was just watching me worried especially Emma and Gwendoline. "I need you to go to Y/n house right now" she sighs "Jenna I literally just got home" okay, now I was pissed off "I don't fucking care!" that made everyone including the crew look at me "Something is wrong with my girlfriend, and you are the only one who lives close to her so fucking get off your ass, call a fucking ambulance and go stay with her until they arrive!" she seems to finally get some sense in her brain "On my way Jenna" I sigh "Thank you and sorry for yelling, I'm just really worried. Call me when you get to the hospital" I hung up the phone and gave it back to Emma.

 I could hear on my phone that the sounds she was making was getting worse and louder and I was starting to cry "Y/n...." I whisper into the phone "Please say something. Anything." still no words, she was unresponsive which means even though she so close to the phone, she couldn't hear a thing I was saying. I was completely lost on the situation. 

Gwen came and wrapped me in her arms "What's wrong with Y/n?" I sobbed as I explained the situation, I explained everything. She had me sit down in Emma's arms as she left to talk to the director. She had got us the rest of the day off so that I could wait for an update on Y/n's situation. 

I felt incredibly worried for my girl, she's never done this to herself before, I don't know what's going to happen to her, I don't know if she'll be okay and that has me on edge. Emma kept holding me and telling me that Y/n would be okay, but I don't know that for sure. I know she's strong, but I also know how weak her body is right now and I don't think her body and heart could handle any more damage. 

It was painful and worrisome hour and a half later, that I actually received a call, but it wasn't from the one I was expecting, it was Y/n's doctor.

"Hello?" I sniffed "Is this Jenna Ortega?" I was confused "This is she" the man on the line sighed "It says here that you are Y/n Y/l/n's emergency contact. I regret to inform you that miss Y/l/n has had a seizure due to the lack of nutrients in her body. Now by the looks of it, because she wasn't eating for a long time it seems, we were forced to put her in a medically induced coma. We are unsure of when she will wake up but for now this is the safest option" I froze in that moment, I didn't know what to say, all I could do was mutter a small thank you and hung up. 

My girlfriend was in a coma. 

And I was to blame.

No one but me.
