Chapter Six: You're Feeling Like You're Trapped

It's been about two weeks and already, I am lost without him. I don't know what to do anymore. I don't care to go out at all. I just want him home.
I haven't eaten or slept since he left that day. I feel like him whenever we split apart. He was literally sick because he couldn't stand to be apart. I can't blame him for that.

I've ignored Cody's calls. Not on purpose, but only because I don't have the energy. I'm weak. He's texted me constantly.
"Baby? What's wrong? Talk to me please. Please baby"
"Say something-anything. Eisley , talk to me.. I'm scared.."
The texts go on and on. I just cried every time I read them. They only made me miss him more.
I finally had the courage to text him back.
"To be honest, I'm not okay. I'm making myself sick. I don't eat, I don't sleep, I can't do anything without you. I miss you so much. It's going to be 2 months of hell without you being here."
Just a few seconds later, he texted back.
"Baby... No. Don't do that, please. I love you okay? I'll be home soon I promise. It'll be here before you know it. I miss you baby. Now, I want you to eat something and go to bed. It'll be okay. Who knows, I might be there when you wake up :)"
The last part made me smile. I decided to listen and make myself something to eat then rest.

Cody's POV
"I'm getting an earlier flight home for tomorrow. I'm not letting Eisley practically kill herself by going into starvation mode and not sleeping." I said to the guys.
"Cody, we need this tour, man. We can't lose this one." Maxx said.
"Well I can't lose Eisley. I'm sorry. I'm just taking a day off. She's hurting herself and I don't want that. That's my girl. I'm not going to lose her again." I started to pack up my suitcase and grab everything I needed.
I'm coming home, Eisley. I'm coming home.

Eisley's POV
I felt a bit better. I got up and went into the bathroom. Looking in the mirror, I see someone that wasn't me. I was paler than usual, you could almost see the outline of my ribs, the bags under my eyes were a pale purple and grey. Have I really let myself go this badly? What does he even see in me?

Cody's POV
Finally. I'm home. I got out the car and grabbed my bags and went inside. I quietly set my bag down. I looked and seen her on the couch. I walked over and scooped her up in my arms, and carried her up the stairs to our bedroom. I laid her down and pulled the blanket over her. I then laid down beside her, pulling her to my chest, and wrapping my arms around her.
