I'm sitting at my desk, drinking coffee, trying to think of video ideas.

My phone dings.

Text from Lia😊- Hope tried to commit suicide:( She woke up and is fine now.

"Aw, poor thing." I text back.

I log onto Gmail.

Fanart usually gives me motivation.

I notice a strange email.

Dear James,
Hello! This is Marissa, an agent at Dreamworks. We are sending this to you to tell you that we are making a new movie called Trolls. We need help animating, and we know that you are great at it. Call (phone number) and tell us if you would like to help out or not. You will get full credit.
-Dreamworks Team

(A/N: I know Trolls already came out irl, but in this book it isn't out yet).

A movie deal!

I can't believe this!

"We need to clean you up." Lizzie says.

I notice the cuts on my right arm.

Lizzie takes a paper towel and wipes up the blood.

She wraps the cuts in gauze.

"Wear a cardigan to the show tonight. I packed that you can borrow. Don't tell the fans about your suicide attempt. I want your personal life separate from your online life." she says.

I nod.

"I'm going to call a therapist today to come talk to you this week." Lizzie says.

I groan.

Lizzie leaves the room.

I run to our room and flop onto our couch.

I still have a wet bathing suit on, but I don't care.

Lizzie opens the door.

"I'm picking up burgers for lunch." she says.

You can't eat a burger.

10 MINUTES LATER
Before I know it, there's a burger and fries from McDonalds sitting in front of me.

Don't eat it.

I look down at my huge thighs.

No.

"I have to go to the bathroom." I say.

"I need to stand outside the door to make sure that you won't cut or purge." Lia says.

I enter the bathroom, and lock the door.

Lia's standing outside it.

I don't actually have to go, I just can't eat.

I stare at my reflection in the mirror.

You look disgusting!

I look at my stomach, that's poking out.

I grab at the fat, disgusted.

I look down at my ginormous thighs.

I cringe as I pinch the fat.

I flush the toilet, pretending I'm finished.

I come back to the table.

"My stomach hurts." I lie.

"Go change into comfy clothes and lay down. You can eat later." Lizzie says.

"I hope you feel better soon." Diego says as I walk to our room.

I change into a a loose baseball t-shirt and black athletic shorts.

I climb up to the top bunk.

I grab my phone, which I laying on my pillow.

I do a Google search for thinspo.

I scroll through the pictures, and save a few to my library.

I'm not eating anymore.

Soon, I'll be as skinny as Lia.

Then, I'll go vegan like Lia did, and trick Lizzie and Lia into thinking I'm recovering.

I'll get skinnier and skinnier.

I want to be able to see every bone in my body.

I won't give up.
==========================
Hope's going a bit cuckoo!

Hey guys!

Before I say anything else, I just wanted to thank you guys for all the support I have gotten on this book and Bullying.

It's really not a great storyline, I don't understand why people like it so much.

I got the sweetest Twitter DM by a new reader a few days ago, and it made me feel amazing.

You guys are the reason I am still alive and writing stories.

I remember freaking out when Bullying reached 100 reads, and now it has 2k reads.

It's crazy to think that 2,000+ individuals have read my story.

Anyways enough with the cheesy talk.

I have a new LGBT story!

Make sure to check it out!

QOTD: sexuality?(if you feel comfortable saying it)
AOTD: bisexual:)

Bye beautiful. Have a good holiday season:) -Liv
