My Famous Dad. (Pierce The Veil fan fiction)

Chapter Four

Lacy

I stare down at the plate of food sitting in front of me. I can feel something rising in my throat as I take in the chocolate chip pancakes covered in chocolate sauce, syrup, and whip cream. On the side is five pieces of bacon, a piece of toast, cheesy scrambled eggs, and two pieces of sausage.

I look back up to Jaime and he nods towards the food, taking a bite of his own. I pick up my fork and slowly take a bite, nearly gagging on the food.

I swallow before guzzling down a big gulp of water after it. I hear a sigh from Jaime and I frown looking back up at him.

"It's not that bad Lacy." He says and I shake my head.

"You might think it's not but it is." I say and he sighs again.

"Stand up." He says and I look at him funny.

"Why?" I ask and he motions me up.

"Just stand up." He says and I do so. "Now pull your shirt up over your stomach." He finishes and I sigh. At least we're alone on the bus. Mike, Vic, and Tony all went to visit Sleeping with Sirens and All Time Low. So, Jaime decided he'd order this fattening food.

I do as told and raise my shirt over my stomach, letting it stop just under my breasts. I look anywhere but Jaime or my stomach.

"My God Lacy..." He whispers, bringing a hand to my ribs and running his fingers over the fat there.

"I'm fat.." I whisper back and I see him shake his head out of the corner of my eye.

"I can see each and every rib. Your hip bones stick out and where your stomach should be is just a dent. How I've never noticed this, I have no clue." He says and I feel his hand cup the side of my stomach and I let out a shaky sob.

"Stop it... I'm just a blob of fat.." I sob, pushing my shirt down and running to the bathroom. I slam the door behind me and lock it, pulling open the lid of the toilet.

"Lacy! Open the door!" I hear Jaime yell as I shove my finger down my throat and I vomit, feeling the pressure rise farther and farther up my throat. I get out as much as I can, it barely being a lot seeing as I haven't eaten in a couple of days.

Just as I'm finishing up, the door busts open and Jaime pulls me up, hugging me close to him as I sob harshly. My body shakes terrifyingly hard.

My mind whirls and my chest tightens. The room spins as I try taking a deep breath but nothing enters my lungs when my mouth opens. I feel a hand rubbing my back as Jaime starts singing softly, his voice cracking every now and then.

"She sits up high surrounded by the sun

One million branches and she loves every one

Mom and dad, did you search for me?

I've been up here for so long I'm going crazy." He sings and I feel my chest untightening, a feeling of safety washing over me. I open my mouth and take a deep breath, relaxing in his grip as I whimper quietly.

"I'm always here for you and I'll help you through this.." He whispers when he finishes singing.

I look up to him, a sob escaping my lips as I can feel myself fall deeper into the blackness. I lay my head on his shoulder and take another deep breath as I feel him stand up, taking me with him. He takes me to my bunk and lays me down, covering me up and tucking me in. He kisses my forehead and then my cheeks.

"I'll wake you up later." He whispers but I take hold of his arm and pulling him back before he walks away.

"Stay with me..?" I say, more of asking a question.

"I can't. If you don't want them knowing, then I can't sleep in your bunk with you." He says, caressing my cheek. I nod, watching as he frowns.

"Don't be sad. Please." He whispers before kissing my forehead again and walking away. I turn around, grabbing my phone and plugging my headphones in, turning on Miles Away by Memphis May Fire ft. Kellin Quinn on full blast and falling asleep.
