Zayn's P.O.V
-----

I sat on my bed. I hadn't been here in months so it was way new and It was definitely way nicer than the hospital beds!

I sat and stared in the mirror, I was disgusted of myself.

It made me think of an incident that happened a few years ago.

--- FLASHBACK ---

"Zaynnn." My mum called.

"Yeah, what's up?" I met her at the end of the stairs.

"Me and Dad are going on a date there is dinner from last night in the fridge."

"Okay. Have fun."

Then my Dad laughed. "Eh, Iet Saf eat it, she's skinny. I think Zayn is looking a bit pudgy. He could skip a few meals."

"Honey!" My mom gave him a nasty look. She pulled him out and I heard the sound of the car pulling out.

I just stood there in shock. I never noticed my appearance before. I knew I wasn't fat. I had a little belly but that's normal.

I was active, always playing with my friends, and running in the neighborhood. I don't know what my dad even meant.

I ignored it and started eating the leftovers. I will start a healthy diet plan. Vegetables only. And A cheat day on Saturday. Usually we had family gatherings so.

----- end ----

I sighed. How does Liam not see the fat on me? I frowned because if I tell him how I feel they will slam me back into treatment.

I decided to fall asleep and take a nap, I was tired after taking my vitals this morning.

-----

"Ohh babyyy." I heard in my ear. I was greeted by Liam. I smiled. "Hey babe."

"Hi, you slept for a while its 7:00 how bout we go to eat."

"Okay sure. How about panera?"

"Okay." Liam smiled.

-----

We got to Panera and I ordered the veggie soup, and a slice of bread on the side. (320 calories.) along with some tea that was unsweetened. Liam ordered a bread bowl and some salad.

We ate and talked. "We need to go grocery shopping after this, so we can get you some food babe." He smiled. "I wanna make sure you're taken care of."

"Thanks, Liam its okay but honestly I'm fine. I'll go by myself."

He frowned. "Well, oh ok. I mean I guess."

"Ugh, Liam. I'm sorry. It's just hard to adjust okay, I love you."

"I love you more Zayn." Liam smiled. "I'll give you money and drop you off there tonight."

"Perfect." I smiled. I was going to buy a scale and some pills as well.

"Yep, i'm proud of you for eating a good sized dinner!"

"Thanks."

If only he knew....

------

I was in the Tesco, I had bought some low calorie snacks, and some special bread, and some organic vegan products. I went in the scale isle and got a new weight watchers glass bathroom scale. I also went to the health section and grabbed iron and vitamin pills so nobody knows my nutrition is wack. And I grabbed two boxes of laxatives and diuretics.

I paid and had £22.00 left over. I just kept the money and drove home. Liam was watching tv so I took the stuff to the kitchen and put the pills and scale in the other bathroom. Nobody used it except me when I showered. So it would work out perfect. I popped in two lax.

I went out and started unloading my food. I gave Liam his change. Then I kissed him and headed to sleep.

-----

I woke up with some pain in my abdomen. I realised it was the laxatives. I got up slowly not trying to wake Liam. I tiptoed into the bathroom. I shut the door and sat through my misery.

Then I heard the bed.

Shit....

"Zayn?" A tired Liam asked.

"Yeah, Liam?"

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah I'm fine I think the food at Panera made me sick."

"Oh okay. You scared me babe." He said. And I heard him get back into bed.

After my problem was solved, I went back in bed and Liam wrapped his arm around me.

"I love you." He mumbled.

"I love you more." I smiled.

We fell back into a deep sleep...
