Little Livesy: Time to Grow Up {COMPLETED!}

Chapter 21

A/N: I decided I would give you guys a suprise middle-of-the-week update :) I forgot to mention it in my last update, but I just wanna say I'm so happy that Danny won best male actor, and Emmerdale won best soap at the Soap Awards! I was pretty disappointed that we didn't win best storyline for Aaron's abuse storyline, but I'm really happy for the awards Emmerdale did win :) Okay, enjoy the chapter x

*Teagan's P.O.V*

It's been a few days since Aaron found out about my eating disorder, and he's been trying desperately to help me, which makes me feel terrible. He's there during breakfast, making sure I eat something, and he's there during lunch and dinner, making sure I eat as well. But what he doesn't know is I run to the bathroom and force myself to throw the food back up as soon as Aaron leaves. I honestly feel like such a selfish cow, because Aaron is going out of his way to make sure I'm healthy and looking after myself, and I'm just going behind his back and doing the thing he doesn't want me to do. I wish I could stop, for Aaron, but I just can't. I stopped eating because it made me feel like I had control over something in my life, but now I really have lost all control.

I was currently lying on the sofa, with Sabrina lying on my chest, asleep. I was also trying to finally get some shut-eye, until someone knocked on the back door. I groaned and put Sabrina in her Moses basket, before going over and opening the door, my mouth instantly stretching into a huge smile.

"Jacob!" I screamed, throwing my arms around his neck. I buried my head in the crook of his neck, taking in his scent that I'd missed so much. Jacob wrapped his arms around my waist tightly as he lifted me off my feet and spun me around. When he put me down and pulled away, he got a proper look at my face and frowned.

"Teagan... You look terrible."

"Gee, thanks." I said sarcastically, but playfully. I knew exactly how I looked. I wasn't wearing any makeup, therefore my skin was pale and drained of color, and my eyes were sunken into my head, surrounded by dark circles.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it like that. You just look so exhausted. Right, go and get some sleep. I'll take Sabrina to see David, I haven't seen him yet. Then we can spend some time together. I'm so sorry I left you to take care of Sabrina alone, you look so run-down." Jacob said, his voice full of guilt, making me instantly feel bad.

"No, Jacob, it's okay, really. It's not like I've been completely alone, is it? I've got my mum, Aaron, and loads of other people. And I've been trying to prepare myself for going back to school, so it's not really Sabrina who's been keeping me awake." I said, looking into Jacob's eyes and speaking sternly, making sure he doesn't blame himself.

"Okay, but I still want to see David, so now's your chance to get some sleep if I take Sabrina." Jacob said. I then realised David had a pretty big operation today, which confused me as to why Jacob was actually here. I'd have thought David would want to keep Jacob as far away from the operation as possible.

"Wait, Jakey, does David's actually know you're here?" I asked, my eyebrows raised. Jacob guiltily shook his head, "Jacob, don't tell me you've run off again!"

"I'm sorry, but I forgot how much I hate it in Portugal, so I got a plane back..."
