Being a Lovato was never easy

Chapter 4

Demi's POV

Throughout dinner Ellie hardly touched her food all she done was pick up her fork and move the food around so that it would appear as  if she was eating.

When she asked to be excused she was given permission which caused me to give her a weird look. She looked back at me quickly and gave an innocent smile. With that she ran upstairs and slammed her door shut.

Ellie's POV

*Triggering*

I ran upstairs and slammed my door shut. I made sure I locked it after me so nobody could get into my room. I just fell back onto my bed and started to cry. I don't know why I was crying I just felt like I needed to.

After what seemed like hours of crying I got up and wiped my fresh and old tears from my face. I made my way to my bathroom and looked myself down in the mirror and I couldn't believe what was in front of me.

All I could see was this FAT, UGLY MONSTER who had claimed my body. I begun pulling areas of my skin that looked the most fat.

I was so disgusted with myself that I couldn't do anything but cry. I completely lost control of my body and I felt vomit begin to move up my throat and I ran to the toilet but I couldn't stop being sick. It's almost as if I have become physically sick because of my appearance.

Once my body decided I had no more vomit left in me, I picked up my blade and made ten new cuts on each of my wrists.

I was too ashamed to go back downstairs in case they too were just as disgusted by a fat and ugly creature walking towards them.

I decided the best option was for me to go to bed and go to sleep so I wouldn't be making anybody else feel sick.

I woke up with a throat ache then I remembered how my body couldn't handle the sight of itself. I got out of bed and checked the clock, it was 7 am, which meant I had to get ready for school.

I had a quick shower and got into my black top with skulls on and black ripped jeans with my black and red converse.

"Ellie come downstairs or you'll be late for school!" My mom yelled to me.

I rolled my eyes and got my bag and put my leather jacket on.

I went into the kitchen and had everyone's eyes on me. I  didn't realise that I was that much of a freak that everyone needed to stare at me. I had a glass of water and left for school.

Demi's POV

I woke up at 6am and I decided to do my morning workout. Once I finished it I went to the kitchen and made myself some cereal. It got to half past 7 and my mom called Ellie down. It took her about 5 minutes to come downstairs.

When she came into the kitchen everyone was eating breakfast and she just had a glass of water and left for school.

I could tell that there was something wrong but I'm not going to ask her because she thinks I'm evil and all I care about is Maddie and my career. But the only reason I'm like that with Maddie is because I don't want her ending up like I did and with my career, I worked so hard to get to where I am today that I am obviously going to care about that.

Once Maddie finished what she was eating I offered to take her to school which she accepted.

When we got to the school I gave Maddie  a hug and told her that I'm going to pick her up after school.

In the corner of my eye I saw Ellie walking by and she turned her head and saw me. When she saw me I decided to drive off I don't know why I did exactly but it felt like the best thing to do.

Ellie's POV

Of course she drove Maddie to school, I can't believe that when she saw me as well she just drove off. I was so angry that I forgot I had no friends to go and talk to, so I just made my way to first class.

As I walked into the halls I got pushed into the lockers by the captain of the football team. Everyone in the hall saw a started laughing.

Amber one of the girls who enjoy to bully people around her started to walk up to me. "Surprised you came in Fatvato, I mean why don't you just copy what your older sister done and stop eating, it might actually give people room to walk. Although with the amount of weight your body is holding it could take years to get rid of." She said loud enough so her friends could hear her and the rest of the football team.

She then started to walk away but quickly turned around and kicked me as hard as she could in my stomach. I had no strength to stay up and I just fell to the floor. People started to walk away.

I felt somebody touch my shoulder which made me flinch. I looked up and saw Maddie with a concered look on her face.

"What happened El?" she asked.

"My legs gave way and I fell over." I told her which she seemed to believe.

"Maybe we should call Demi or Mom to come and pick us up because you don't feel well obviously and I slipped by the front of the school and my ankle is in a lot of pain." Her voice was beginning to break as she said that.

I could no longer talk so I just nodded and started to think about everything Amber had said to me.

"Demi will be her in a minute," Maddie told me so we made our way to the front of the school even though I could barely walk because my stomach is in so much pain. I think it may be bruising.
