RYDER'S POV
I'm just so happy Luke accepts me and isn't grossed out.
"Thank you for not thinking I'm gross cause I'm anorexic." I said as I laid with him that night.
"Gross? You? Those are total antonyms. I wouldn't think that was gross because this is a serious medical condition. If anyone thinks you're gross because of this, they're messed up." He said to me.
I smiled and buried my face into his chest.
"Um hey. Extremely personal question time. Can I see what your stomach looks like? Cause when I picked you up you were lighter than light." He asked.
I hesitated for a minute.
"I get if you don't want to." He said.
"No. I want to." I said as I slowly took my shirt off.
I stood there in front of him.
I felt his hand on my ribcage.
"You're so skinny." He mumbled.
"Now do you think I'm gross?" I asked.
"No." He said immediately.
"Unhealthy? Yes. Gross no." He said.
I put my top back on.
"When you go back to Ohio, promise me you'll see a doctor." He said.
"I will. A good but cheap one." I said as we locked pinkies.
"I don't want to see you in a hospital. Ever. Okay?" He asked.
I nodded.
"It'll get better towards the end of August. I'll be out here. With you." I said.
"And I'll make sure you're okay. What scratch that. More than okay." He said.
"I must've done something right to get an amazing boyfriend like you." I said.
