Just another Romeo and Juliet Story

Chapter 4

Tori's POV

I didn't really have to go to my sisters performance I had to catch a taxi to go home. Once I got into the taxi the taxi driver gave me a strange look. I said," What?"

"Look in a mirror. You have Sharpie all over your face." He told me.

I pulled out my compact and looked in the mirror. Lucky me, I guess Tyler and Ryan drew on me when I fell asleep. Oh well it's New York you see a lot of weird things here. I was at my house and I payed the driver and walked inside. My mom was sitting at the table with folders,charts and a notebook. I sat down and said,"Pay no attention to my face I'll explain later."

Once a week I sit down with my Mom(My mom and dad are divorced) to talk about my anorexia. Yes I'm anorexic. Yes this is the secret I don't want to tell Ryan. Yes I'm getting help. I have been since i was 13. I have only told 3 people my parents and my best friend, Anyistyn. I'm scared Ryan will break up with me if I tell him because I'm not normal. I'm 16 and I only weigh 80lbs.

"Mom can I tell Ryan that I'm you know?" I asked.

"Sweetie it's your choice...I know you have had problems in the past with trying to tell people. I know it's hard... So I'm going to let you decide." My mom responded softly.

"Okay I'm going to text him right now." I said getting up.

"Tori I think it would be better if you told Ryan in person and don't forget about the sharpie on your face." She said before I went up the stairs.

Ryan's POV

I'm sitting with Ty on the couch we are watching Paranormal Activity 4 on Netflix. I heard my phone go off and knowing Ty, he jumps up takes my phone and tells me what it says. Ty says, "It's from Tori she says I have something really important to tell you tomorrow in person meet me at the Starbucks where we had our first date at 11am. Please it's very IMPORTANT."

I'm nervous about what Ty says and yank my phone from him.

"Dude did you get her pregnant or something." Tyler says.

"Of course I didn't. You think wrong." I respond back.

Tyler says it's getting late he grabs his backpack and says I'll see you later. I'm so worried about Tori it must be really important if she has to tell me in person. That night I didn't sleep well. I kept waking up from nightmares of Tori and what she was going to tell me.

Tori's POV:

I woke up at 1 am in the morning, crying because I had a nightmare about Ryan and my anorexia. I looked at my phone and saw Ryan had texted me at 11 in the morning saying that he needed to know. I decided to text him back.

T: I'm sorry I wanted to tell you on text but its better to tell you in person

Ryan texted back right away.

R: it's fine but I just can't go to sleep because I'm thinking about it to much.

T: I'm sorry, it's just I need to tell you sooner or later.

R: okay I need to go to sleep now good night❤

T: good night❤
