NOT PROOFREAD

It's about 5am and I'm in the shower about to pass out. I have barely eaten in days and I've exercised excessively. I wrap a towel around me and then I sit down on the toilet cover. I take one hand and raise it to my collar bone to check for any fat. There's not much, but I can do better. Then, I take my thumb and my pointer finger and wrap it around my wrist. There's quite a gap, but again, I can do better. I walk into my room and put on a pair of yoga pants and a basic long sleeve shirt since I'll be changing into my scrubs when I get to Seattle Grace anyway. I do want to wear long sleeves though, because I'm scared someone will notice how skinny my arms have gotten.
Once I'm dressed and have my makeup done, I walk downstairs into Meredith's, Lexie's, and my kitchen to grab some rice cakes. I've been living with Meredith and Lexie ever since me and Meredith found out we were related to Lexie. Lexie's three years older than me and I'm in my first year as an intern while she's in her fourth year. Meredith's already almost done with her resident years. I'm the youngest of us three, and it's fine I guess.
I'm just opening a cupboard to get my rice cakes when Lexie walks in.
"Hi Y/n! Are you ready for your 24 hour shift?" She asks me.
"Yes Lexie, I am. It's hell on earth though." I tell her.
"Oh come on! You'll get through it! Are you sure you don't want a bigger meal than that though?" Lexie says and points to my rice cakes. "Your brain won't function well at all if you don't give it fuel;food! You should really try this pancake recip-"  She starts, but I cut her off. "Lexipedia. I know what I'm doing okay. Bye, I've got to go." I say, grabbing two rice cakes, putting them into a ziplock bag and placing them in my bag for work. I walk towards the door, and put my shoes on.
"Have a good da-" Is all I can hear before I shut the door behind me.
I'm walking to work, since I'm too broke for a car and I need the exercise. The sun is rising when I'm walking on the empty streets on my way to the hospital. I take a few bites of one of my rice cakes while I'm walking.

When I'm at the hospital, I immediately meet up with Derek since I'm on his service.
"Hey Y/ln! Are you okay? You look a bit pale." Derek says when he sees me.
"Yes, I'm fine Derek. Where's our patient?" I ask him impatiently.
"Alright, well we have this 56 year old male with a brain tumor. His surgery is scheduled for today, and you'll be scrubbing in." He says.
"Okay, great." I say.
"Shall I introduce you to him?" Derek asks me.
"Sure." I say and follow Derek into a patient room.

30 minutes later, I've introduced myself to the patient, his name is Joey Anderson and he seems like a nice guy. His surgery isn't until 2pm so now I'm just doing charts.
I had to sit down because I felt so faint. All of a sudden, Lexie approaches me.
"Hi Y/n! Jesus are you okay, you look sick." Lexie says.
"Oh my god I am fine Lexie! Just stop bothering me!" I snap at her. Some people in the hall turn around and look at me. I don't care though.
"Sorry." Lexie says quietly and walks away.
I see Alex looking at me weirdly.
"What?" I ask him. He just shrugs. I need to eat something. I go down to the cafeteria and buy an apple and a packet of crackers and eat them in the intern locker room.

Once I've eaten it all, I feel so guilty. So so guilty. I need to get it back up.
I go into the handicap bathroom stall just because it's the nearest and isn't pressed together next to a bunch of other stalls. I lock the door behind me and stare at my reflection in the mirror. Then I take two fingers and stick them down my throat. It's gotten harder to throw up food since I've done it so much. After a few minutes of coughing, I finally get it all up.
When I'm done, I exit the bathroom and go into the hallway again. Just as I get out of the bathroom, I see Alex lingering in the hall, looking at me. I give him a blank stare, and he draws his eyes away from me.
Then I just run a few laps around the hospital, pretending to have been paged. I need the exercise. After that, I get back to doing some charts.

LEXIE'S POV:
I'm roaming the halls in order to find Meredith. She doesn't like when I page her, so I look for her myself instead. I finally see a glimpse of her in a patients room, and knock on the window. Meredith turns around and I wave at her and signal for her to come out and meet me. She looks angry, and mouthes something that looks like 'Shut up'. 'Please', I mouth back. She holds up five fingers to signal that she'll meet me in five minutes, I just stand tilted against the wall in the meantime. Five minutes later, she comes out of the room and approaches me.
"Hey. We need to talk. I think." I say.
"Alright? It better be worth me leaving my patient early." Meredith says.
"It is. I'm worried about Y/n." I say.
"Why?" Meredith asks me.
"She looks so sick, pale and to be honest, skinny. I mean, think about it, when is the last time you saw her eat anything else than like an apple or something? And she just snapped at me in the hall for literally nothing." I tell her.
"Maybe but I-" Meredith starts, when Alex approaches us.
"Lex. I'm worried about Y/n." Alex says.
"I know. We were just talking about her and what happened in the hall." I say to him.
"Yes I know, but I just heard her in the bathroom." Alex says. Meredith raises an eyebrow. "Look, I heard her throw up okay?" He says. "What?" I say. "Yes. I'm sure." Alex says.
"But why would she- I mean- I just. What?" Meredith says.
"Thanks for telling us Alex, but I need to talk to Mer alone for a while." I say, and Alex nods, and then walks away.
"Meredith, something is seriously wrong." I tell her.
"You're right. Let's page her." Meredith says and reaches for her pager.

Y/N'S POV:
I'm doing charts, when I get a 911 page from Meredith. I quickly put my charts away and spirit to the room Meredith paged me to. It's room 137, and I quickly get there. But when I open the door, I just see Meredith and Lexie. I hesitate, but walk into the room and close the door behind me.
"Hey?" I say confused.
"Sit down please." Meredith says and points to a chair sat in the room.
"Alright?" I say weirded out, but I do as she says.
"We need to talk." Lexie blurts out.
"We do?" I say.
"Let's get straight to the point. We're worried about you." Meredith says.
"What?!" I exclaim.
"When was the last time you ate?" Lexie asks me.
I scoff, "Like 30 minutes ago."
"And not threw it up." Meredith adds.
I look up at her. How does she know?
"I don't throw up." I protest.
"Liar." Meredith says.
"I'm not!" I say.
"We know you did. We're not mad. You can tell us what's going on." Lexie says.
"I ate this morning." I say.
"What did you eat?" Meredith asks me.
"A rice cake." I mumble.
"A rice cake?! That's what you eat in a day? A single rice cake?" Lexie blurts out.
Meredith nudges Lexie in the side. "Sorry." Lexie whispers.
"What did you eat yesterday?" Meredith asks me. I shrug, because I didn't eat anything. "Please tell me you ate something?" Meredith says. I look down. She knows.
"How long has this been going on?" Lexie asks me. I shrug again. "Please tell us Y/n." Meredith says. "I don't know. Like 6 months?" I say.
"Okay. That's okay." Meredith says, "We'll help you." She adds.
"I don't need help." I tell her with a stern voice.
"Honey. You have an eating disorder." Lexie says.
"I don't!" I protest.
"Calm down sweetheart." Meredith says. I calm down a bit.
"We'll help you. I promise." Lexie says.
I don't answer, fighting the tears from rolling down my face. Lexie kneels down and hugs me. Meredith does the same. I let a tear roll down my cheek.
"I love you." I tell them both. They're the only family I have. I need to trust them.
