Chapter Eighteen

Damien's P.O.V.

The whole time that I was on the field trip, all I could think about was Rosimar. We were currently in a van, heading back from our field trip. Anthony and Ian called us saying that today at the office there will a surprise for me. Mari told me that it will be during the recording of a Smosh Games episode. Everyone knew except for me. I didn't even want to go to work. I just want to go see, Rosi in the hospital. 

"Hey, what's wrong?" I looked over and saw Wes. 

"What? Oh nothing." Wes gave me a glare.

"Damien, I know you. You have not been acting how you usually do. What's going on?" I sigh, and look down at my hands.

"It's just, Rosi. I am worried about her. Shayne told me that they had a scare. She was dead for like ten minutes. What if it happens again, Wes? What if she doesn't make it? I can't lose her. None of us can." I held back my tears. I have never cried in front of anyone from Smosh, other than Shayne. I am not planning for that to change.

"Damien, she will make it. She is stronger than to let go so easily. She has been going at it for more than a month. If she doesn't make it, at least she tried. It is true. None of us want to lose her, but if she does leave, she won't be leaving completely. As cheesy as it may sound, She will live on in here." He said as he placed his pointer finger on my chest. I scoffed.

"I want her to live on in my life. Not my heart. I have missed her so much. We have always had that sibling love, you know? We always made each other laugh, and we would always annoy each other. I don't ever want that to be gone." Wes smiled at me as he opened his arms. I leaned in and hugged him. I pulled away and sent him a small smile. I began to look out the window, as the Smosh headquarters got closer. I really didn't want to go to work. This is going to be a long couple of days.

...

We were on set and a few minutes into recording. We were playing Emoji Charades. Shayne and Courtney were apart of the episode. Shayne was on my team, and to be honest I was mad at him. I knew everything that he had been doing and saying to Rosimar. It broke my heart to know that that is what she had to go through. Even on camera I gave slight attitude. We would laugh it off, but he knew I wasn't joking. 

Shayne stood up, and walked up to the camera. I was the only one who was confused.

"So, today we have a very very very special and amazing person coming in today. This person is a surprise for not only Damien, but everyone watching this video." I looked at him weirdly, and he looked back and smiled.

"We have been waiting for a long time to get this to happen. Everyone was happy and excited to see this person, but we wanted to make this special for all of you guys at home, and Damien. If you guys could turn the camera, you will see that there is a huge blanket up to obviously block the person from view. Damien if you could please cover your eyes, and everyone help block his eyes." Everyone placed their hands above my eyes. I was getting agitated. I didn't want to be here.

I heard the blanket drop, but of course could not see.

"Everyone uncover his eyes. Damien keep your eyes closed." Shayne said. I sighed, and kept my eyes closed as everyone stepped away.

I heard shuffling in front of me.

"Open your eyes in three, two, one."

Shayne's P.O.V.

There was the face I was looking for. His mouth was opened agape, as she stood in front of him with a big smile. 

"Omg! You are here! You are awake! Oh Rosi!" He picked her up, and hugged her. She smile and placed her face in the crook of his neck. Nothing could ruin this moment. He had been talking to me on the phone for the past week saying that he wanted to see her. He cried to me on the phone. Damien wasn't the type to cry a lot, but when he did, it was heart breaking.

"I missed you so much, big bro." She said into his neck.

"Me too, baby sis." He was crying. He never cried in front of people, but he was not only crying in front of his friends, but in front of thousands of people that were going to be watching this video. Courtney, Mari, and Joven were crying at the sight. Damien finally set her down, and wiped his tears. They hugged for a long while afterwards. I wished she would hug me like that. The way she hugs Damien and Noah. You know? I wish I had that again. That beautiful friendship before she told me. It was great. I miss us. I miss her.

Damien P.O.V.

I had completely forgotten about the game. Everyone played and I sat next to Rosi and held her hand as we spoke about everything going on. I then realized how skinny she had gotten. She was never like big, but she wasn't skinny. Now you can really feel her curves. She also weighed so little. 

"You have lost a lot of weight, Rosi." She nodded and shrugged.

"I haven't gotten to the weight I want, but I will reach it eventually. Can I talk to you after the show is done. I really feel like I should tell you. I trust you, and Noah  and Shayne are the only one that knows. Shayne found out on accident." I nodded.

"Of course, Sis." I said as I hugged her. She smiled, and bit her lip. She always did that when she was nervous. I wonder what she has to tell me.

...

Rosimar's P.O.V

After the show, I pulled Damien out of the set. I could tell he was nervous.

"Damien, I... I didn't just lose weight because of the coma. The reason why I was so big, was because I have an eating disorder where when I get my hands on food, I can't just eat once. I needed to eat it more than once. It made me gain weight quickly. Like three months ago, I started to think about what I could do to lose all of that weight... And so I started to starve myself. No one knew. I had done a pretty good job of hiding it, until Noah found out because I refused to eat. Shayne, had a dream that night where he saw me crying on top of Noah as he told me that I should eat, which that did happen. He came up to us to confirm, and we were shocked. That's how he found out. Then when I got into the coma, I lost a lot of weight because they had me on a very special diet of liquid foods that made me lose weight quickly as well." He stared at me in pure shock. I shouldn't have told him. I fucked up. Oh no. What do I do? 

I felt his strong arms hold onto me. He hugged me tightly. 

"Rosi, it's okay. I am here for you always. There is a different, and better way of dieting that doesn't include starving yourself. I will be here with you through every step of the way. I don't think you should loose anymore weight. You look great like this. You don't even have a tummy. You have a flat stomach. You almost have Courtney's body except you have very big hips, thighs, and not trying to sound weird, but you have a bigger butt." I laughed. That's my Damien. I smiled, and hugged him tightly.

"Thank you, Damien. You are the best brother from another mother, that someone could ever ask for." He chuckled and pulled away, leaving his hands on my waist.

"I love you, sis."

"I love you too, big bro."

We smiled at each other.

"Sorry for ruining your moment. I just wanted to check up on Rosi, but I will just go." Boze said. I chuckled.

"What moment? We were just talking, Bozey." She shrugged and walked away with a frown.

"What was that about?" Damien asked with a weird expression. Realization hit.

"Damien, you are so dumb." He raised his arms in defense.

"What? I didn't do anything." I rolled my eyes playfully at him.

"Just go get, Bozey and tell her to come to me." Damien laughed and shrugged as he went to go get her.

"I am smelling jealousy, and love in the air."
