Chapter 34: Pissed

  ~ Elizabeth ~

          I open my eyes, which feel like they've been rusted shut from all my crying. I glance over at the clock, it's 8 A.M. I snicker, knowing everyone's not going to wake up in a while. I untangle myself from Dan, now lacking warmth. I smoothly fall off the bed, landing on my worst burn. I walk to the bathroom, trying to get a glimpse of myself. I quietly close the door, turning to the mirror. The minimal nutrition didn't heal my burns. My Eyes are red and puffy, surrounded by big bags from lack of sleep. I trace my ribs, they show through my shirt. I'm all bony, I haven't eaten solid food in 2 whole months. . I also notice how much I shake now that I haven't eaten. My joints hurt too. I take a deep breath opening the door. Everyone looks up at me. " Shit," I close the door. " Anna?"

      " Yes?" She answers.

     " Do you have your makeup bag with you?" I pray.

     " Yes....." She answers. 

   " Ellie," Chris says. " Just get your ass out here." 

   " Can I have Phil's sweatshirt?" I mumble through the door.

   " No," They all say in unison. I laugh, opening the door. I peek my head out.  I step fully out, closing the door. I look at Everyone. All their eyes are wide, their jaws dropped.

  " I'm hungry," I snort.

  " Well, no shit!" Anna hops up, crushing Phil's balls.

  " Anna!" Phil yelps. She ignores him, rushing to me. She lifts my shirt. I pull away.

   " How long since you've eaten real food?" Anna asks quietly. I smile at the boys, pulling Anna into the bathroom. " So?"

    " 2 months or so," I tell her. 

     " 2 MONTHS!!!????!!!" Anna bursts. I face palm, wondering why I tried.  

     " Anna, what ever happened to Pj?" I ask.

      " WHO GIVES A FUCK ABOUT PJ!" She yells. " Why?"

      " Nurse bitch told me you guys were dead." I say. " I mean i'm nothing without you guys." To my surprise, Anna slaps me hard across the face. The noise echoes throughout the bathroom. 

       " You could've killed yourself!" She cries, hugging me. I hug her back, feeling her tears melt into my shoulder. " I'm sorry I slapped you," She mumbles into my shoulder, chuckling a bit.

      " It added color to my face," I say, she laughs harder. I look at the growing red mark on my cheek and laugh. We hear a knock at the door, I walk out and answer it. " Good morning." I smile. 

     " Good morning darling! I've brought you guys some chocolate milk." She greets warmly. I welcome her in, turning back to Anna.

      " Did you guys bring me clothes?" I hope.

     " Yeah, in a bag next to Pj's bed," She smirks. I walk over picking up the bag. I run back to the bathroom, to get changed. On the way, I trip over air and stumble a bit into the cabinet. Bed pans beat me down, I just sit there defeated. Everyone laughs, I trudge to the bathroom. I peel my long sleeve  shirt off, revealing all kinds of burns and bruises. I quickly put my bra on, not wanting to think about the horror. I put on a heavy amount of deodorant, you know shit happens. I search through my bag, pulling out the familiar shirt. The bright green happy turtle stares back at me, the big black letters reading " I <3 turtles!" states my truth. I Grab my dark blue skinny jeans, taking off the scrubs. Daymn my legs are hairy. I chuckle to myself, putting my jeans on. I brush out my hair, leaving the dirty blonde locks down. I see my burned and scared arms, looking in the bag for a sweatshirt. I succeed, finding a plain gray zip up. I put my socks and black vans on, stepping beck to admire the result. I almost look normal. I take out the small bag of makeup, applying as much as I can without looking like a clown. I need to cover up the scars. Once i'm okay with my appearance, I walk out of the bathroom.
