"Tris, what happened?" asked my mom. I hear more footsteps and I see Will and Four running up to my room.

I stand up and feel a little light headed.

"Its nothing really. My head just hurts." my mom looks worried because when my head hurts, I get dizzy and pass out.

"Okay, how about yo guys take break and go swimming. Tris, be careful. We don't to go through this again, like last time." She mumbles the last part. Everyone looks at me surprised. Will looks confused.

"Again?" Asks Chris. I shrug. "Hasn't happened for awhile. It shouldn't go for much longer like I told you earlier." I say. "What are you guys talking about? I am so confused." I walk up to him and whisper it to him. I hate for me to hear it myself.

"What's that?" he asks. "I give up." I say back to my spot.

"Dude, your stupid! It's an eating disorder stupid!" Says Lynn. "Oh sorry Tris." Lynn says.

She must of say that I look ashamed. I am. I did this to myself. Its my fault and I am fixing it slowly. 

"No. Its okay. Its my fault. I did this to myself. I am fixing this mess that I made though. Don't be sorry." I say walking out of my room.

~Timelapse~

Everyone got changed into a swimsuit and they headed out to the pool in the back. But by they, I mean the guys.

I am wearing a hot pink strapless bikini. We are all wearing the same bikinis but all different colors. Chris's is purple, Lynn's is black, Marlene's is orange, and Shauna's is blue.

It took a lot of convincing to get Lynn and me in a bikini. Took me longer because I still think I am too skinny where else Chris says that I am as skinny as her which doesn't make me feel any better.

We walk to the pool and I am still hesitant about me wearing this bikini. Chris wouldn't let me change. When we walk out, we see the boys already in the pool. When I get out, all eyes go to me. 

What have they never seen a girl in a bikini before? Worse, a girl with anorexia?

"What?" I say sitting on the edge of the pool, dipping my feet in followed by Marlene.

"No offense, but we didn't know how bad your anorexic was until now. Why do you think you are so skinny? Because you really aren't the kind of girl who would be anorexic." say Zeke. 

"But I am. And you don't know what I have been through. And I really don't want to talk about it." 

"Okay. I have an idea! Lets play Marco polo!" Says Uriah.

"I will if you can get me in the pool." Chris retorts.

"Us too." The rest of us retort. Me and Mar get off the edge and back up to where Chris is. I realize that Lynn is already in the play.

"Traitor!" I yell to Lynn. The guys get out and head to the bin that carries all of the swimming stuff. They all pull out a squirt gun and walk to the pool and fill them up.

"Oh poop." Says Chris.

They squirt us with the water guns and the water is freezing!

"That is cold!" exclaims Chris. We all run into the pool and jump in only to meet more cold water.

"The pool is so cold!" I yell at the boys once I get to the surface. The boys jump in making huge splashes and splashing us. 

"What the F***!" Screams Shauna.

"Kay, now that we got you guys in the pool, we are playing Marco polo. Who is it first?" Everyone but Uriah looks at each other and we all say at the same time, "Your it!"

"Why me?" "You came up with the idea." I say shrugging.

"Its only fare little bro." Says Zeke.

"Fine I will be it first." He closes his eyes and counts from ten to give us time to spread out. I get an idea and hop out of the pool very quietly so he won't hear. I get looks but ignore them and walk over to the built in slide and sit at the top, waiting.

Everybody gets the idea and hops out. They either stay by the ledge or sit on the beach chairs quietly. 

He finally reaches one and starts.

"MARCO!" he screeches.

We all yell back Polo. I get another idea and signal Chris to fill the water gun and hand it to me. I would do it but I don't want to make any noise.

She hands me the gun and the other girls do the same. The boys are stupid. They are looking at us really odd.

I aim my gun at Uriah and I squirt him and his eyes snap open. Everyone that got a gun proceeds to squirt him while I am sitting here laughing till my stomach hurts.

"What the H***!" He yells. I start to climb down the ladder and when I am down a few steps, I skip the rest and jump. I walk over to a beach chair and lay on my stomach and lay there for awhile facing the pool.
